IF YOU HAVE NO CLUE
Here I am as a woman as I fight back the tears from falling from my eyes, as they fall from the depth and deepness of my heart exposing the mere truth of my hurt and pain. For you promise me that you weren't like all the others men's I had within my life, but yet I've come to realize that it was all nothing more than lies as you broke my heart in two. As you tried to convince me that what you were giving me was love, when in fact it wasn't really love at all just another knot upon your belt. For you never truly understood what it means to love someone unconditionally with honor and respect....

Light but dark
The morning sun
Was shining
Hope it would bring
To most
But not to the corpse
There in the ditch
Laying.

WE BOTH CREEPING
Sometimes in life and through our relationships there will come a time, that we wish hadn't happen but it was something of our own subconscious doing, as it was our decision to make a difference between what is right and what is wrong. For here we are face with a real hard decision whether to stay to together are go our own separate ways, or make it about our relationship as well as our journey through this cycle known as life. For I want to come clean and confess as I know that you want to do the same thing with me, for I know that I haven't been the best that I can be to you as a man, as...

How little we know
The struggles of others. Rest
My courageous love

Forever Winter
No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear” - C.S. Lewis
Let’s keep our rooms cold
Inside this house of old
I don’t want to clean up
Let the candles do the work
And my journal take the hurt instead
Let’s keep the front door locked
Nobody knock
There’s nothing left inside
But four walls of rotting wood
Unswept floors and tangled curtains
Dirty dishes
And a scent buried in perfume
Autumn foliage takes hold
Outside this house of mold
This skull of mine aching
From the stench that’s...
Let’s keep our rooms cold
Inside this house of old
I don’t want to clean up
Let the candles do the work
And my journal take the hurt instead
Let’s keep the front door locked
Nobody knock
There’s nothing left inside
But four walls of rotting wood
Unswept floors and tangled curtains
Dirty dishes
And a scent buried in perfume
Autumn foliage takes hold
Outside this house of mold
This skull of mine aching
From the stench that’s...

Bereft
He was sitting
By the mews
Reading of her death
The sad news
Totally bereft
And a huge hole
In his heart
It left.

Totally bereft

UnRelentingly
I (still) cannot tolerate the fact that she's
dead. Gone forever.
Over two years. 4thofjuly2018,
31 years old.
God
g'odd why did this happen?
Simple:
Every Body Dies. All beings. All ages.
Every sentient Thing Dies. Get used to it.
She's gone. Let her go.
(You're going soon, daddy DaDa.)
And still....And still.....And still......

Uncle Jeff
I didn't want to say goodbye to you just yet
Unfortunately you didn't have much time left and it breaks my heart
Knowing how sick you were and how fast your health was declining
I admired you. You were so kind and loving. You generous. You loved your family and would do anything for them. You would give the shirt off your back if someone was in need.
I want to thank you for taking care of Brandi while she was in college and all you did for her.
We will miss you saying grace at all our family holidays. That was something I looked forward to hearing was your prayer....

Bad dream/reality
I fall asleep and dream
that i was hanging with you
Then at the end of my dream
you told me goodbye and
I felt tear falling down my face
i woke up in tears
I look at my phone and
i text your sister waiting for her reply.
i stand up to go to the kitchen
walking back to sit down i hear a ting
I read her text message saying your gone and
you died 5 mins after i fell asleep * tears falling hard*
I can't breathe and i nearly drop my phone
as i fall to ground after seeing a text from your sister
I say over and over it...
that i was hanging with you
Then at the end of my dream
you told me goodbye and
I felt tear falling down my face
i woke up in tears
I look at my phone and
i text your sister waiting for her reply.
i stand up to go to the kitchen
walking back to sit down i hear a ting
I read her text message saying your gone and
you died 5 mins after i fell asleep * tears falling hard*
I can't breathe and i nearly drop my phone
as i fall to ground after seeing a text from your sister
I say over and over it...

Dementia
i’m losing the love of my life
he said
through poorly hidden tears
no she’s already gone
he whispers
she doesn’t even know my name
he rages pounding his fist on the table
it used to be hugs and kisses
family outings
vacations celebrations
arguments followed by embraces
he was her lover protector
partner-in-crime
for more than sixty years
now he is
a stranger
a caretaker
now it is long journeys
to the bathroom and back
now it is cutting her food
making...

Star
You had that magnetism
That was so easy to see
Unlimited potential
That was never reached
A star so bright
But oh so brief
Lights up your life
Gone in a blink
That was so easy to see
Unlimited potential
That was never reached
A star so bright
But oh so brief
Lights up your life
Gone in a blink
