Donna Secrest Poems

Love is the greatest commandment it is written in the good book
people search the world for it every cranny every nook
but its inside you all you have to do is look
...

I bleed from the wound your blade made

And I wade through the pool of tears I shed
...

This is my journey, this is my walk, this is also my valley
I have felt fear many days of my life but I am free
Because he walks beside me
With his peace he removes all anxiety
...

Like a video tape on rewind
It's what I see in my mind
A cure I hope they find
Distorted sounds,
...

Two headed but not two faced

Hear my case

...

Dear dad..
It feels like you are so far away. I cried today.I think about the days when I was little And you would make me giggle And we would play, I listened to everything you would say Ok maybe not everything.By the way mom gave me her ring The one you and grandpa made, I wear it so my love will never fade.
...

Like petals plucked from a daisy

My tears fall like crazy
...

Without love we become bitter, our hearts tend to wither, and our souls suffer
There is no laughter, No rainbows to chase after, No reason for the heart to beat faster
without love there is fear. If only we would look in the mirror, We would find it's always been here
Without love we forget how to love, it's what we need reminded of, by angels from above
...

I was told come out of my shell, I'm no turtle so go to hell, I can handle myself very well
I was told I was worthless and a mess, wonder who passed the test?
I was told I was stupid, let me be lucid or do I need to be more candid
I was told get a backbone, do I look prone? Get off your throne
...

desires she had one not many more than none
lost all hope but for that one
she longed for it to come
it doesnt mean much to some
...
