Look Deeply ©



Look deeply into my eyes...
into the mirror that is my soul.
Past the decades, and the pain of betrayal
The disallusionments and the disappoinments
Past the uncertainties of our world
And the equivocal times of our wars...
Past the days of beautiful youth,
and knowing that there was nothing that
we did not know.
Look deeply into the shell that is me...
You will see the slightest cracking of a door
A door that is beginning to open
ever so slightly - to allow new breezes,
and new sunrises and sunsets;
New springtimes and coming summer days.
Opening to allow new hope and sharing
and, yes... Trust.
Look deeply, and know that again
I will love

K.C. Daleigh

I am a member of ASCAP, I am a Singer/Songwriter and a Poetess. Some of my work has been published in books of poetry and a few in songs. ALL of my work is copyrighted.I have been writing almost since I learned to write and was able to look at life from my own point of view. I have literally dozens of notebooks with scribbled thoughts, short stories and poetry dating back to my school years, and about a dozen years ago; some friends urged me to share it with the world. I hope someone can get something from these thoughts. more…
