Powerful Words
by Beth Layne Poetry on Dec.12, 2009, under Uncategorized
So powerful are the words that you speak -
Why, indeed, do you speak to me in this way;
Hidden in the shadows, concealing yourself?
Light is truth, opened wide – words you say.
Is it then, a game you play? – you do see me -
That acknowledgement, I give, that you seek;
In tune, indeed, or did this take study?
Clever, you are, in knowing where I am weak.
Is your intent, then, to frighten? -
To leave me with no clues in reality;
Are you waiting for me to see it clearly? -
To my life, there is no thing as normality.
You know that I am observing – yet still -
You seek what is not mine to give;
Answers come through me, not from me -
It is for the growth of others I live.

You Are Me
by Beth Layne Poetry on Dec.12, 2009, under Uncategorized, love poem, love poetry
In every moment I see your smile -
You should be here with me;
I long to feel your gentle touch -
But I wonder now, will this be?
Connected across time and land -
To know your heart once again;
Your boundless soul knows mine -
But this time, will my heart win?
A fleeting thought I know is yours -
A song I hear, always in my mind;
I know you are thinking of me -
But, will my heart, you find?
I can see through time and space -
But, your love I cannot see;
I can feel what others feel inside -
Separate I cannot, for you are me.
As if looking in the mirror -
To see the other side I hide;
There I am inside your heart -
Where my love will forever abide.

The Fire Within
by Beth Layne Poetry on Jul.09, 2009, under empathic poem, empathic poetry, spiritual poem, spiritual poetry
Find the ember that starts the flame -
Let flame light flame through your being;
Let loose the creativity inside you -
Then visions of heaven, you’ll be seeing.
Let your spirit soar beyond all fears -
Look back in triumph from where you are;
Love with every ounce of your heart -
Dance in gratitude for every star.
Set loose the oxygen to fully ignite -
Breathe deeply and exhale the weight;
Know you are meant to glow with light -
Come now, my friend and make your fate!
Close your eyes and visualize it all -
Everything you deeply desire to be;
Let the gratitude flow through you -
Open your eyes, and you shall see!
Take hold of what deeply gratifies you -
Therein lies the mysterious key;
There is reason for what moves your soul -
Follow it, and you will be free.

Unlocked Treasure
by Beth Layne Poetry on Jul.09, 2009, under empathic poem, empathic poetry, love poem, love poetry
At times I’ve thought to break the silence -
That lingers still between you and I;
Uncertain if I really should do that or not -
Wondering if you’ve thought of our goodbye;
To share such, as all that we shared -
Distance between us so vast and great;
How can one just simply walk away -
From a paths that crossed by fate?
Irrational words burst through emotion -
No time to think, impatient with pain;
Angry for all I was willing to risk -
Feelings to work out, of shame.
Did not you know my heart indeed -
Or was it all for the pleasure?
Reality or fear, I still do not know -
To run from an unlocked treasure.
Risque, for sure, what I suggested -
I’d not thought to loose altogether;
Indeed, I thought to know your heart -
I’ll still treasure the memory forever.
