Find My Place
Sally Henson
May 26, 2016

Warm sun

blue sky

cool breeze

why don’t I

why don’t I skip this town

find a better place around

a place not torn between

a place of excitement

a place of peace

docile & gentle

adrenaline rowdy

stimulate my mind no longer cloudy

— clarity speaks —

On The Cusp

A Battle for Control

A roar is building - boiling up

from the tips of her toes to her chest - it’s too much

It swells inside - about to explode

Hands - balled into fists of rage

Nails dig in - she feels the pain

A grumble - rolling of the tongue

Fighting - control the muted one

Loud - bantering in her head

Silent - outside of it

Look to the heavens - clenched mouth opens wide

Muted roar exhales - wrenching twist inside

A battle exists - behind those eyes

Fire V Earth

Jupiter V Saturn

Dreamer V Realist

Neither will dominate - no winner abides

Stop the battling - you need each other to survive

You are one - special, more than most

Intuitive, sensational - you are both

Impulsive and fiery

Slower and calculated

Work together - compromise

Use the best of both sides

Stroll to the Creek
Sally Henson
May 15, 2016

Out of my mind

out of my zone

I walk forward

with you to hold

my hand for relief

to find peace

from myself this

mind that doesn’t

cease one touch

one look in your

eyes a wave washes

over me all things

forgotten and I

can finally be

present

in my surroundings

seize the moment

A Teen Romance - Lullaby
Sally Henson
May 8, 2016

Sometimes life gets complicated as we are coming of

age. Regan knows about complicated.

It’s happening in her life.

Sing a lullaby

drift to unconsciousness

sing into the night

Soft background sounds

travel back in time

when I was a child

Every day was a new beginning

filled with wonder and adventure

when life seemed more simple

And the night would sing a lullaby.

Song for her.
Sally Henson
May 1, 2016

 

Lane sings along with the radio. It’s what he does. He’s secretly dabbling in song writing too.

up & down

you got me feeling

like I can’t breathe

you got me spinning

I can feel

my heart beat

faster than my truck speeds

between your house and mine

round & round

you got me going

girl I can’t see

anything but you

in front of me

driving down this road

wondering what if it’s just you & me

yeah - you & me

no one else

say you see it too

it’s a perfect match

no we’re not just friends

we’re more than that

I’m gonna miss you girl

I can’t take it

don’t you feel it too

do you see it

what we’ve become

I can feel it - when you’re next to me

riding down the road - when you’re next to me

surfing on the hood - when you’re next to me

jumping off the cliff - when you’re next to me

fishing in the creek - when you’re next to me

I want your kiss on my lips - when you’re next to me
