“TAKE HEART”
by Kathryn Henneman



“ONE FINAL SEASON”  
by C.L. Gillmore



Lay me down and let your love wash gently over me.
Soothe me softly with that low, steady voice of reason.
Strip all the craziness away and let me just float free.
Heart to heart, soul to soul…if only for one final season.

You rocked me once in innocence with young, trembling hands,
And gave me a reason to trust again by making no demands.
Now let me sink slowly under your soul…warm, close and tight.
Hold me within your arms through this long, wondrous night.

You once said I saved you, but the truth is you saved me.
By waking me up from years on end of details and complacency.
You found that girl who once was filled with dreams and desires.
Gave her strength to strike the match that finally lit the fire.

So lay me down and let your love wash gently over me.
And soothe me softly with that low, steady voice of reason.
Strip all the craziness away and let me just float free.
Heart to heart, soul to soul…if only for one final season.
