THE CHILL TURNED WARM
Place your hate in the pantry on the shelf. Label it memories of years gone by and store it. Remove the wine saved by time. Dust the bottle until it looks new. The color is brighter and the taste worth the wait. The bitter was replaced with a taste to savor. On the shelf you will find the love stored all this time. Label the empty space filled with happiness and close the door. The chill turned warm.

THE FLAME
I lit a candle tonight then I lit another bright. The Flame is strong like my love for you. The wick is the foundation of my heart. The melted wax surrounds it like feeling your arms around me. As the flame burns you take my breath away. The well of wax sinks deeper like my feelings for you. As the candle changes shape so does our relationship. Over the years we developed a lasting friendship. The flame never goes out.

In the end nobody won.
I've cried a river.
It must reach far and…

Our spirits remained great.
Being sisters they couldn't take.
God watched over us for our own sake.
Our guardian angels knew what was at stake.
Even though we had to wait'
our bond they couldn't break.
We didn't grow up filled with hate.
Sisters we did make
filled with love until this date.
Our bond they couldn't…

TURNING POINT
Softly warmly hurting me teaching unknown feelings bringing out the person I used to be before fear imprisoned me. Freeing me for only a short time and dissolving trust in love with the mention of another. I found myself running to something familiar for security to erase what our time had taught me. Only what was once familiar seemed strange because I had changed.
