Encased
Within my beauty
A silent grain of pain
But my God
Layered
Love, upon love, upon love
Smoothing hurt into
Iridescent sheen

La Vie en Rose
You’re my favorite
My very, very favorite
Person in the whole wide galaxy
Because with you
I feel safe being me
Portraits with Pzazz!
Good morning sunshine
Up & out & at ’em
And feeling very fine
Portraits with Pzazz!
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens, Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche, Voila le portrait sans retouche, De l’homme auquel j’appartiens.
Quand il me prend dans ses bras, Il me parle tous bas, Je vois la vie en rose.
Il me dit des mots d’amour, Des mots de tous les jours, Et ca me fait quelque chose.
Il est entre dans mon coeur, Une part de bonheur, Dont je connais la couse.
-Edith Piaf
Portraits with Pzazz!
It’s important
To choose my words
Wisely
In case they are
The last words
I ever
Have a chance
To speak
To you
So I’m filling
Them with
Love
Portraits with Pzazz!
My little girl dreams
Are still cherished
By my woman’s heart
One day
Very soon
I know
They will be
My reality
Portraits with Pzazz!
And then the day came
When I stopped
I stopped
Dancing for a song
That never paid me dignity
And on that day
I said
I am significant
Then I reached out
And I took it
I took my worth
I took my grace
I took my respectability
I wrote my own song
This song
I can dance to
Proud
