Love can’t be forced

Or bought , or sold

It can’t be compared

To diamonds or gold.

It can’t be rushed or

Taken too slow

Love knows the pace

It must take to grow.

Love is not chocolate

Or homemade fudge

It encorages forgivness

Love holds no grudge

Love is a feelings

That can’t be denied

Love won’t be destroyd

Or pushed aside.

Love is all around you

And it’s not hard to find.

If you can not see it,

your heart must be blind.

Aug., 2008 wg (ls)

I want to know you

Your heart and soul

Inside and out

Head  to toe

I want to kiss you

a thousand times a day

And stand beside you

Come what may

I want to know your dreams

Your hopes, your fears

And I want you to know

I’m always here

And all these things

I want with you

I NEED to know

You want them too.

 Aug, 2008 (For LS...b/c I thought he was different, but I was wrong)

If you let me love you

If you Let me love you

like no other before

Surely you will see

Only God could love you more.

With my love comes inspiration

In me you ‘ll find your muse

You will succeed in Life

With my love you cannot lose

With my love comes support

As I stand here by your side

Lifting you or catching you

From my love you will not hide.

With my love comes adoration

For I truly believe in you

In my eyes you are perfection

There is nothing you cant do.

With my love comes a faithfulness

You’ll find I’m your best friend

You will learn to trust and lean on me

In my love you can depend.

With my love you will only lose

all the doubt that floods your mind

lust, jealousy and impatience

In my love you will not find.

You will no longer know misery

Or loneliness and fear

heartache and emptiness

you will not suffer here.

With my love you no longer need

to use armor for protection

no walls to hide behind

In my love you’ll fine affection

If you let me love you

your fears I’ll put to rest

Of all those who can love you

Only I can love you best..

For CW, because he asked me to

Never will I admit

Never will I reveal

what you do to me

how you make me feel

I can see so clearly

you feel it as much

I see it in your eyes

everytime we touch.

Images of us

Are fantasies forbidden

Though it’s just a crush

I’ll keep my feelings hidden.

When you walked up today

Just to say hello

It took my breath away

But you must never know

How is it that you

can stir emotions so deep

And yet be unaware

Of the secret I must keep?

The first day back to school

The summer went so fast

My girls are growing up

Why can’t these moments last?

I was so excited

as I woke each one to say

"Get up! It’s time for school"

"Can’t be late on the first day"

With new shoes and clothes

And a fortune spent on supplies

Soon a spark replaced

the sleepy in their eyes.

Then hair and teeth were brushed

as we scurried out the door.

This is when they told me

What I hadn’t known before.

This year they would be riding

The school bus to the school

I didn’t need to drive them

Having mOm there wasn’t cool.

I felt my heart start breaking

as they climbed upon the bus

They didn’t want my help,

Who was I to fuss?

all I’ve ever hoped

to pass on to each one

Was for them to be independent

Now I guess that part’s begun.

As the old bus drove away

I slowly walked back inside

I felt no longer needed

As I sat in the floor and cried.

I remember once I said

I looked forward to this day

And now that it is here

I wish it would go away.

So on the first day back to school

I sit alone, with tear-filled eyes

My children are all grown up

And I hate how fast time flies

And visit us sometime. 6-1-05 (wg)

Entering

into my dreams

foolish

it must seem

allowing

you back inside

knowing

before, I cried

craving

your caress

Trembling

I confess

Exhale

I breath you in

Undress

I’ll be your skin

Loving

you so much

Submissive

to your touch

Passion

in our midst

knowing

you were missed

Guilt

rushes in

Reality

of your sin

Begging

you to stay

Hating

this new day

Dreaming

of you again

Fantasies

omit the pain

Caressing

is your touch

Longing

passions clutch

Undressing

You’re my skin

Exhaling

I breath you in

Thrusting

Into me

Forever

Won’t you be

Revealing

my entire soul

Completely

you make me whole

Rising

the morning sun

Reaching

finding none.

Tearstained pillows

bittersweet rhymes

Scars on a heart

Repaired many times

Abandoned by Love

Orphaned by fate

As destiny Teases

Yet patiently you wait.

Tempted and betrayed

By infatuation and lust

A hard lesson learned

Unfair and unjust

Endurance , Persistence

now around you dance

because you believed

in Love and Romance

AS A Mother

I know I haven’t been

Who I promised you I’d be.

The moment I first held you

The day God gave you to me.

I want so many things for you

that is why I push you so.

If I let you repeat all my mistakes

It will only hurt us both.

You deserve all life can offer

Don’t let it slip away.

I will be here for you

Every moment, Every day.

I lay awake at night

Thinking back on words I said

I fear I was too hateful

As the day plays in my head.

And as I lay there sleepless

tormented by the voices in my head

I fear that I have hurt you

I go to kneal beside you bed.

I cry there in silence

while peacefully you dream

Please God let her forgive me

For today I was so mean

I love you so much it hurts me,

My heart breaks for you each time

I see your confidence weaken

I know the fault is mine.

I guess I shouldn’t question

when every single day

You can’t stand to be here with me

You can’t wait to run away.

Oh how I want to tell you

How much you mean to me

But I shouldn’t have to TELL you

It should be what you see.

So I will make this promise

If it is not too late for me

To be a better Mother to you

The Mother I said I’d be.

YOUR MEMORY


IT CAUGHT UP WITH ME TODAY
I WAS COMPLETELY UNAWARE
I WISH I’D SEEN IT COMING
HAD MORE TIME TO PREPARE

IT RATTLED MY HEART , RIPPED OUT MY SOUL
UNTIL I WAS SURE I COULD TAKE NO MORE
BUT IT DIDN’T LET UP , IT WOULDN’T LET GO
I COULDN’T SHAKE IT LIKE THE TIME BEFORE

SHOWING NO MERCY AS I LAY THERE
WHERE IT KNOCKED ME ON THE GROUND
AS SOON AS I THOUGHT THE MOMENT HAD PASSED
IT RETURNED FOR ANOTHER ROUND

THIS TIME IT SHOOK ME HARDER
MY HEART POUNDING IN MY HEAD
I GUESS IT WASN’T SATISFIED
THAT JUST MY SOUL WAS DEAD

IT PROVED TO BE MUCH STRONGER
AND MY BODY WAS GETTING WEAK
AS REALITY WAS SINKING IN
I BEGAN TO FEAR DEFEAT.

NOW THE WILL TO FIGHT ABANDON ME
I HAVE TO LET IT WIN
I NEVER THOUGHT YOUR MEMORY
WOULD BE WHAT DID ME IN.

You say the things

I have longed to hear

whispering promises

Sounding sincere.

I want to believe

what you say is real

your touching me

your breath I feel.

My heart is melting

your voice is hypnotic

every piece of you

to me, is erotic.

I am losing this battle

my defenses you shatter

the wall crumbles down

but it doesn’t matter.

A hopeless romantic

will always give in

pointless to fight it

Love will always win.

Laughter Is The Key

Yesterday I sat in amazement

as a watched my brothers son

laughing with his daddy

both having so much fun.

In this perfect moment

my heart filled up with joy

As I watched my little brother

become a little boy.

I knew this little boy

who had come out to play

For it wasn’t long ago

he made me laugh that way.

As I watched the two boys playing

I was suddenly aware

To see my brother in this light

was a sight so rare.

Unable to drown out the sounds

The laughter filled my ears.

Perhaps that’s when I realized

I had not laughed in years.

The laughter coming from them

Was as contagious as the flu

and soon they had me laughing

And playing with them too.

Being a single parent

Is a struggle everyday

So many things I must get done

leaves me no time for play

But there was a little girl

locked up inside of me

Desperate to come out

Now I have found the key.

So today the dirty dishes

And other chores can wait

Im going to play with my children

Before it is too late.

Like Peter and Wendy

In Never land

You and I

go hand in hand

Forever with you

Never growing old

A love everlasting

Never growing cold

And when we reach

our one-thousandth day

will you look

to me and say

"You are my lover

You’re my best friend

Our Fairy Tale

Shall never end"

And from the sky

you take a star

I make a wish

And here you are.

Now I know

Wishes come true

Because tonight,

I wished for you.

6-23-05

To Tommy

All my life I have heard

Perhaps you've heard it too,

For each of us there is some "ONE'

That special mate for you.

Suppose someone belived it

sat out to find the "one"

Imagine she got lucky

With him a new life begun.

But what if circumstances

That neither could avoid

took thier love away

leaving them both destroyed?

Now some of you may say

I'm an old romantic fool

But I just can't believe

that fate could be so cruel

Now sometimes life gets crazy

In spite of the good we do

So I believe Fate was aware

So she prepared for us a "TWO"

Of course it 's just a theory

and one I cannot prove,

but if you have lost the "One"

Perhaps you have a "TWO"

A special day approaches

It comes just once a year

There’s something I must say

And something you must hear.

It isn’t that uncommon

A topic of conversation

Dad’s who aren’t around

No support or visitation

Now I ‘m a single mother

And lately I have found

Everywhere I look I find

More single dads around

And as I get to know them

It is revealed to me

this is not a part time dad

This man has custody

So as Father’s Day draws closer

Let’s not forget about

The many single dad’s out there

No wife to help them out.

And to the single dad

A simple word of advice

You will be rewarded

For your sacrifice.

One more thing before I go

One thing I’d like to say

To each and every Dad

A Happy Father’s Day !

Written for the many single dads I know and adore.

Great Job you Guys!!! 

Greg, Kerry, Tommy, Tom,  Johnny, Dan, Brian Presley, Mike P., Ron, Doug B., Brad,  and many more.  Happy Father's Day!
