Loves Promises

Every night as you sleep,
I check up on you.
I run my fingers through your head,
Wipe away the sweat beads that appear
From being too deep in the covers.
I examine your small fingers,
And kiss everyone.

I’m reminded of the day I first set my eyes on you,
Small and innocent.
When the nurse placed you in my arms,
I was lost,
Lost in my love for you.
You looked at me long and hard,
And then a small smile formed around the sweet corners of your beautiful face.
Slowly your eyes closed,
And you fell into a blissful sleep.
Tears spring to my eyes.

I still couldn’t believe you were mine,
I could not believe you came from me.
And I was amazed and moved that god had shed his grace on me.
I had so many fears,
But they vanished the moment I set my eyes on you.
You are my everything.

I vowed that day to make all your dreams and hopes come true.
Since that winter morning
I have lived every day for you.
And will continue to do so.
Your happiness will be my happiness,
Your dreams will be my dreams.
And I will stay by your side in every conquest you face,
In every heartache you may come against,
I will be your haven to seek solace and comfort in.


These are my promises to you.

Sesames

Last night as I drove through the busy lit roads looking at the bright evening sky with the wind blowing in my face I thought of you.  I thought of you and wondered where you were, what you were doing, what you were thinking, and if, just if, there were any ifs in your mind......On nights like this I feel like the skies above me feel my sorrow and yet somehow I feel free..maybe its because I feel one when immersed in such beauty or maybe because it's those times that I can be true to myself and you...who knows..but I still hear the voices and questions in my head, the minute I'm alone or lying in bed or when I open my eyes to the bright specks of sunlight streaming through my curtains and the innocent singing of the mockingbird outside my bedroom window, I hear them, it's as if with your exit came a new companion for me, my own companionship, my twin who always lived in my subconscious but far from haunting me, now she haunts me every day with her continuous questions....Wh...

Forever First

Every time I look at my phone and see his texts something inside of me lights up.  It’s a wonderful feeling knowing there’s someone else in this universe who understands how you feel because they feel it too and their simple words of reassurance does wonders to this lonely feeling.  He’s become my best friend, my first actual grown up best friend.  Sometimes I do wonder how our friendship never turned into anything else.  To be honest it baffles me.  It’s an age old conception that men and women can never simply be friends.  Somewhere down the line it blossoms into something more, whether it be purely physical or love. I remember the first night we met.  I’d just logged on to this chat site after many years and the first person to pop up was him.  I was wasting a bit of time as it was still pretty early in the night, nothing on telly, and far from tired.  After spending a few minutes flicking through channels I decided to doodle a bit on ...

I'm back!

Hello friends! It has been awhile. A friend recently reminded me of my blog . He said I should get back to writing, he enjoyed my stories.  I used to love blogging and then life happened; family expectations, a career, and so much more. And yet..maybe I am lying a little.  Blogging reminds me of my old life, the one stained with pain that I have tried my best to forget.  My psyche has done a pretty good job in conquering the art of filing the past away deep into the embers of my mind.  The human mind is truly a mystery isn't it?  A lot has happened since my hiatus. Where should I start?  Politics has been fabulous and yes I know that sounds like an understatement.  Should we discuss the shitstorm that politicians like Trump and Boris have put us in? In our lifetimes will we see more screwed up leaders the likes of them? I pray we don't because I don't think the next generation will be able to handle it. And now unfortunately this pandemic which seems t...
