He never knew how much I loved
the way he smiled at me
Or that my heart fluttered
with just a glance
and seemed to skip a beat
How I held my breath anticipating
he would speak to me,
then daydreamed about the two of us together
One day, eventually
How I wrote his name inside a heart
scribbled on my book
Aspiring to be the one he saw
and not simply overlooked
How many days and nights I spent
longing for his call
Praying that he’d realize
we were meant to be after all
Our world I built inside my head
a place for just us two
Where love was wise and not a lie
playing my heart for the fool
A paradise designed by a mind
wishing my dreams to reality
So long ago
how I loved him so
in my fondest memories

As shadows dance
in spirited unison
during the predawn hours
I reach for his hand
Certain he will extend his
in tandem
Our marital covenant
unrivaled, fathomless
Though interrupting his slumber
his fingers brush against mine
gently caressing my hand
Our brief distance narrowed by
delicate linen sheets of emerald and blue
In contentment we smile
unbeknowst to each other
surrounded by tranquility
in the deep of morning

When I awake
I go to you
to make sure
you’re still there
You vanishing
into the night
it is my worst fear
I kiss your cheek
thanking the gods
for another day with you
Happy I am allowed
another morning
to do what mothers do

Let me
seduce you with my words
Make love to your mind
Conquer your thoughts
Invade your dreams
We can text if you like
Just a word or two
Enough to entice your senses
Leave you wanting more
Hanging on my every
WORD
Let me talk to you
Tell you how amazing
YOU ARE
That I can see
what the world
wants you to be
What you’ve always been
Deep down inside
Where your true self lies
Let me help you climb
the mountain
you’ve been struggling
so hard to ascend
I know you can do it
Try it this way
Close your eyes
Look to the sky
and say
I believe I can do anything.

I’m sorry to say
the time has come
for me to let you go
Your drama has become
too much for me
and I can no longer cope
The love I have
for who I am
won’t allow me to stay
I fear I’d loose
pieces of me
if I remain
another day
I wish you the best
in all you do
and whatever you become
But
from this day forth
I’m bowing out
our friendship is done

Today
I’d like to thank the lord
for waiting on me
Providing me the time
to realize
just who I’m meant
to be
I thank him for
not giving up
when I thought all was lost
For always residing
within my heart
no matter what the cost
For giving me
just one more chance
When I believed
it was too late
For showing me
a new way out
when I assumed
there was no escape
Today I honor you lord
from this very spot
Praising your name
on my birthday
for everything I’ve got.

This year
I can say that I’ve had
some of the
best days of my life
Expressed the things
I needed to say
made every wrong right
Arrived to a better place
from where I’d previously been
Said my piece
face to face
bid farewell to bitter endings
Happy that I have moved on
from where I use to be
Loving the life that I was given
Now happy on my journey

I want to just be quiet
Become overwhelmed by silence
mull things over a bit
think about my wants and needs
differentiate between the two
decide why what should be isn’t
how what is came to be
I want to do nothing
halt any progression taking place
not say yea or nay
refuse to make a choice
and select the wrong path
I just want to sit
be quiet
and listen

One of the greatest lies ever told
is that God does not exist—
a phenomenon
we cannot hold,
lying outside our grips,
to hope and pray
every day
for something that may
not come our way.
But I believe,
though I can’t see,
because
God lives in me.
