The Lost Song


"The Lost Song"
By Adrielle R. Bollin

Where have you gone
Oh song in my heart?
And where did you go
The voice which sang so sweet?
I miss the bright sunshine
Which your music daily brought
The lyrics and melodies
Like a warm summer breeze
Their soothing effect
Like a soft gray rain
Gently washing away fear
To bring life once again
Their passionate embrace
Like a crashing ocean wave
And the pull of every tide
The way my soul soared
Like eagles majestic and free
Flying so high and seeing everything
How you made me proud
Like a stallion running in the wind
Wide nostrils taking deep breaths
Mane and tail dancing on air
You helped me forget
This world, it's troubles and sins
You soothed my moods
Like a hot therapeutic bath
Melting away tension as butter to heat
You lifted my tear stained face
When I could bear no more
Gave the healing salve
Ministered deep to my core
I miss your presence
Though I know you're still near
You're still in this house
Hiding in a secret room
Awaiting the call
Of The Healer's gentle voice
He'll pick up the pieces
Of my world gone astray
Give me new life
Make me whole again

The Storm

The Storm
By Adrielle Bollin



Like a child who is hurt
I ran to find you
To ask you why
To understand anew

But it was not easy
This pain so much deeper
All I had known
Taken by the reaper

The storm that hit
Came fast yet slow
The winds blew hard
The grasses bent low

My heart despaired
As I saw the demise
My soul's desire
Crushed before my eyes

The thunder shook all
The lightening cut deep
The sky ripped open
The heaven to weep

A home for my heart
A family to belong
A purpose that was growing
A dream in song

Scattered in pieces
Ugly roots were now shown
What lied deep beneath
Ripped up to be known

The flood of rain
Beat bloody the ground
Washing away
What I thought to be sound

I could not see
Nor hear nor feel
Frightened of everything
Truth hard to reveal

All I had known
Now broken or shaken
My world fell apart
My confidence taken

Stricken with grief
I turned to find you
I wept in your arms
Found rest and refuge

Recovery lingering
I yearn to burst forth
To shine with the sun again
Set my sails due north

But still I am healing
Building my dreams
Finding my place
In this fortress supreme

For soon I will ride
With the wind in my face
Conquer my fears
I'll win this race
