Chosen

      

By Patrice Watley Williams, Poetic Lyricist

Patrice Watley Williams, Poetic Lyricist   I Am Chosen - Even in a Quiet Storm   Quiet Storms of a soft soul Lurking in the distance  You look but you don't see, You see but you don't notice  You notice but you don't acknowledge,  You acknowledge but you don't feel,  You feel but you don't say it,  Saying it is everything  Even in a quiet storm... But even in the quiet storm I am possessed with personality  To be Chosen In the meantime and between time  I am sequestered in my solitude  Allowing parts of the world to pass me by, Making a choice to heal  dreaming the dream of being comforted in the night,  In and out of my thoughts  Riding in the wind of possibilities,  Wanting the rainbows to find me,  Adjusting my eyes as I press on to see the prize,  Afraid to lift the padlock  Shielding it with all of my beings,  But finally knowing it's time to do  What I was chosen for...   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   I Made It   Strong but weak From my younger days of seeing abuse Through young adulthood Of being abused Striving to live a peaceful life  Of raising kids and in and out of relationships  Searching for love, finding it but never wholeheartedly  Living and loving, loving and living Giving and giving never truly receiving  Beyond abuse, I'm happy, beyond disrespect  I'm sad, but I'm happy Beyond betrayal, I'm happy Beyond heart dysfunctional, I'm happy Beyond CANCER, I'm happy A lot of hard days but I made it.  Never without you Standing on His promise Never taking my life for granted I made it!   Poetically,   Patrice Watley Williams, Founder: wearitgirlwigs.org   amazon.com/author/patricewatleywilliams Outreach Committee Chair/ http://www.iwillsurviveinc.org/   ***to purchase my books click any link below: http://www.amazon.com/My-Pen-Speaks-Poetic-Vibes/dp/160911325X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1313849129&sr=8-1 http://search.barnesandnoble.com/My-Pen-Speaks/Patrice-Watley-Williams/e/9781609113254/?itm=1&USRI=my+pen+speaks http://www.booksamillion.com/p/My-Pen-Speaks/Patrice-Watley-Williams/9781609113254?id=5058590506127   Thank you for allowing me the freedom to be expressive as my Caterpillars blossom into Butterflies!!!
