Yesterday's Pain
she stands at the window
cheek pressed to the pane
while the last trace of summer
becomes drenched in the rain
her eyes are set
in a ghastly stare
while the day wears on
but she doesn't care
there is work to be done
which she hasn't begun
and she takes a deep breath
then begins to hum
slowly the evening arrives
and trying hard not to cry
she sighs wishing
that she weren't alive
and she knows that
tomorrow will be the same
for all she can feel
is yesterday's pain

You Loved Me Sweetly
driving down the highway
in my new GX-350
i'm listening to
a roy orbison cd
and thinking of
you and how
you love me sweetly
wishing i could
turn back time and
be the person
that i was when
you showered me
with a love so strong
you loved me sweetly
when i passed
you on the road
and you waved to me
our eyes met
but only briefly
as you smiled so tenderly
it made me lonesome
for days gone by when, oh
you loved me sweetly
Faith Elizabeth Brigham

Your Love
your love is like an ocean breeze
so gently blowing across the sea
your endearing love envelopes me
while at the same time it sets me free
in the morning when i awake
i think of you with each breath i take
love is such a wonderful thing
your love has made me believe in fate
your love has touched my soul down deep
in a way i've never known before
and when you hold me in your arms
my heart escapes and embraces yours
Faith Elizabeth Brigham
