I still recall your warm embrace,
the hugs and kisses, the tenderness.
You brought me here, I didn't asked.
You raised me for a while, now you disappear.
I'm puzzled why, you never been honest.
You both created the mess, now I'm taking the consequence.
I thought you love me, it's just for lips?
Now you are both free, what about me?
My eyes shed as I wrote this piece,
Don't know how I say, but I know how I feel.
One day when you miss me the way it used to be,
Hope time will bring us back and together we stay.
Still hoping for a perfect life,
another chance for me to understand.
The why, what and how are all still buried in me.
Once happy, now facing the world alone each day.
I still love you both,
and how I wish this season of love and happiness,
I can hear even just your voice, I know It won't.
For dad and mom, I truly miss you most!

Gentle touches of the wind
Gentle rain like a friend
Keep telling me I shall return home again
Come a summers day
The valley is winding low
As I walk along I know
Many places have I been
And I need the path that returns home again
Walking by a stream
reflections of the sky
Clouds move slowly by and then
The promise of my heart to mend
Come a summers day

i never knew what words to choose today
to talk about my mother in my very own way
she always tried her best, maybe not always right
but if anyone tried to hurt her kids. she would put up
one hell of a fight.
and when i went through my heartbreaks, and boy
i have had some
she was there to pick up the pieces
thanks i love you mum
you were there to give your love from when
i was a kid
and you still are giving it now because you
always did
you were not only there to wash and feed me and
wash my dirty clothes
or run out to the playground and wipe
my snotty nose
these memories will always stay here in my heart
until the day i die
and now that you are ailing now its my turn
to try
to show the care you showed for me, before you
say goodbye
to wipe your brow and sit with you
i promise not to cry
and i promise mum i will be there to care
and do my part
thankyou so much for being mum,
i love you with all my heart

Protected in an egg of water,
My life line,
You, and my umbilical cord.
The chord that must be seperated,
At birth.....
Are we realy seperated,
When we leave the womb ?.
What about the silver thread in life,
That's attached to us all.
The thread that ties our soul to our body,
The thread that ataches hearts to hearts,
The invisible thread with such strenght, power and emotion.
The unseen umbilical chord,
Of outside the womb....
The unseen pull of life....
The button hole in our belly,
Constantly reminding us that we are, attached.
To someone !,,,,
Death a seperation,
The cutting of the chord ?.
Maybe not,
For that chord is attached to those,
We create.
For those that don't and cannot create,
They still have, the unseen chord.
For it's illumanation attaches them to others,
Fostering, Adoption, Friends,
Humamity always attached....
Murderer's, Abusers, Innocence being taken from the innocent.
Now, They do not have an umbilical chord,
That links the heart to emotions,
Sad, for those that don't have the life line,
They are,
The freaks of nature....
A baby, once innocent,
Who, cut thier chord ?,
Or did they pull to hard for it to snap....
For others,
Life attached to hearts of hearts,
The beauty of the cord that binds,
The world one big ball of string,
Don't let the weak cords,
Shread us....

There’s a place in my mind, where time stands still, able to reflect at will, to think about days gone by, to search where I am now, and where I will be in days to come. I don’t know what the future will bring; I hope its full of love and joy, a feeling to make me want to sing, even if it is off key.
There is a place in my heart, it feels like it’s being torn apart, uncertainty is at hand, lost is a deep dark nightmare, for whatever reason, life is never fair, whilst I feel bewildered with despair, I know I can get myself out of there.
Its just going to take time, but the clock continues to tic and toc, they say one door has to close before another can open, sadly time is the one thing that is not on my side, whilst I hold my head up high and walk with pride, inside I want to be unseen and hide. I just want it all to just go away, dreams are free but reality bites, it doesn’t matter how much you fight, and the two will always remain. I can see why sanity is lost to the insane, with all the hurt and pain one can endure, inside a man is what is pure, his heart of gold, full of warmth and never cold, as a dad, did the best I could, nothing less and never would.
Separate lives we will now live, all the best for you I do wish, no matter how damaged my heart will be, you’re my daughter and forever will you be, you are the most important thing to me, everything else just doesnt compare, as my child as sweet as you, a gem so beautiful and so rare. I will try to see you again, but if fate has other plans, just remember that this man who is your dad will always love you and be your greatest fan.
As tears roll down my face, its time for me to leave this darkened feeling, leave this painful place, move on to find a better ending, whilst my broken heart repairs itself in mending.
As the twinkle in my eye, I bid thee fare well and goodbye…….
With all my love.. your dad.

You are my child.
I have not forsaken
you i am there
when you feel alone.
I am there even if
you do not feel
me just know i am
embracing in love.
Let the pain go i
will help you through.
It is time for you to
continue on with your
life that God has
laid out for you.
I will show you the
way if you just let
me take your hand.
I will deliver on
the path you are to
go for eternity.

No better, no clearer.
In full view of all eyes.
She slinks away
Dismisses the words.
Tomorrow's a new day.

About this poem:
Thinking of someone who was strong when she was being lied about.
Post Comment
Twenty nine year old Susan Vale parked her
car on this cold December morn..
She wrapped her fur coat tightly around her
neck and commenced the one block walk to
the Lee Case office building where she worked
as a Para Legal. For twelve years Susan had braved
this side street of Baltimore often clutching her
pocketbook tightly as she stepped quickly past
side streets where the homeless would huddle
and hold out a hand for spare change..
But until this raw cold morn she had never parted
with even a handful of.change to one of these
losers, a name her office associates had arrogantly
given them..
And why should she? Had not life dealt her a bad
hand? As a child her parents abbanded her to
foster homes and her anger towards God, the world,
and everything in it had kept her soul in chains seeking
some kind of closure, something that could touch the
little girl within..and say, 'Her life had meaning, and that
there was some purpose to her existence..
Today she would take a chance on generosity, on a small
act of kindness..
She reached into her purse and fished out a fistful of
change and pushed the coins into the hand of this
homeless man whose tortured lonely blue eyes could
barely mumble a thank you..
Susan quickly walked away and being a half block
away the homeless man choked with tears cried out,
'Thank you marbles.' Susan frose in her tracks.
Marbles? 'That's what my daddy used to call me when
I was five.
She turned and stared deeply into the eyes of this
broken soul and rushed and knealt holding his
trembling frame to her. Through his choking tears
he throbbed, ' I am your daddy darling.'
And Susan wrapped this cold destroyed man with
her fur coat and half carrying him to the corner
coffee shop she leaned down to whisper in his
ear.
She whispered these words..
She whispered..
Daddy..'I love you.'

To my sis
My first memory consists
Of you and I playing in the sun
At Stamford St and having fun
As kids we had such great times
You were helpful, loving and kind
Memories of days at the beach
As we ran around smiles on us each
Collecting shells in the sand
These I still hold precious in my hand
Of course we argued and such
But really not all that much
We then grew to be in our teens
Still as close as we'd always been
We ran amok and caused trouble
When out together the trouble was double
Times together experiencing new things
When looking back happiness it brings
So many good times but we also had bad
There were times that were pretty sad
But I always knew you my sis
Would be there for me no matter what the risk
Then we entered the twenties
In this time there was smiles a plenty
I remember when will was born
I sat there waiting in worry till dawn
You had such a hard time then
I saw his little face that's when
I looked at you as a mum
As a mum your just as fun
You have a special warmth and way
With your kids I have to say
Then along came Beth and Nick
With them thank god you wernt so sick
You and James are great together
You've both been there for me and I'll be thankful forever
You've also made me proud
To be Will Nick and Beth's uncle this I say aloud
Will such a caring lad so strong
As a big brother he belongs
Nick so cheeky and smooth
With out a doubt he's one cool dude
Beth our little princess
So pretty she melts me with her cuteness
James Will Nick and Beth
To have my Sis your truly blessed
In closing I'll just say
I look forward to many more days
Creating memories together
Cos your my Sis stuck with me forever
Happy birthday
Love ya bro x
