On My Mind

Things that are on my mind . . . .
 Dont really matter much . . . . 
Dont matter much, really . . . 
I understand that my thoughts are just silly . . . 
I've come to an understanding that . . . 
Some things I can choose and other things I cant . . . 
Certain things I'm lucky enough to have a say . . . .
everything else does not matter, it's not I'm my control anyway . . . . 
The things I felt were important . . . . 
Have proven to me that they aren't meant . . . . 
Find myself on the other side of a traumatic event . . . . 
Still obsorbing all of the things I underwent . . . . 
I'm still thinking that soon I'll wake up . . . . 
From this nightmare I'm dreaming . . .
 Keep asking myself why I have not woken up screaming . . . . .

Bluest Roses

I have always like rose flowers but not fully bloomed, not bloomed fully 
I had an ideal perfect rose that was colored blue or blue in color for me 
I fantasized of my love one day suprising me 
I wanted one day for him to sweep me off my feet 
The perfect day 
In the perfect way 
Just him and me 
And on that day 
Blue roses I would see 
The roses would be blue that he gave me 
I wanted so much to feel important, sexy, and pretty maybe
In some way be reminded by my love . . . 
" momma I love you and your everything to me " 
Of course it's a fantasy 
When you know it'll never be true 
Which is probably why I had yet to see
Roses that were blue 
Then one day I had explained 
My ideal perfect flower , I explained a blue rose 
And how I've yet to see that perfect rose 
Was then told that was because it's not how a rose grows 
So some how some way I'd have to make it myself I suppose 
If I had it my way, blue roses is what I would have chose 
For reasons that except GOD himself know one knows 
And then one day 
I saw on display 
A beautiful bouquet 
Of blue roses you see 
I fantasized that someone picked them for me 
I thought they were pretty and stood there and froze 
As I stood and admired the bluest rose 
I remembered some one telling me 
It's a funeral flower . . . And so I thought well maybe 
In death someone might give them to me 
I'll just have to wait until then to see
Time went by as so life went by 
And one day life had happend to me 
And had a few things taken from me 
I was having a little boy. . . I've already got 3 
So #4 was coming to be part of our family 
Lifes decision was to bring to a halt the life inside me 
Still cant help but to think original plans had included me 
I'm just thankful I'm here now to be saying 
These things that I'm saying 
I'm so glad people love me and started praying 
For me and my baby 
They prayed for our staying 
I was even put down again 
Because bleeding kept happening
I woke up from that still in the woods 
Hoping to be told things that were good 
My baby was fragile this I understood
I didnt think he would die I didnt think he would 
But sadly he did 
I got my blue Rose's the day he was buried 
Blue Rose's on top of the tiny casket my 3 kings carried 
I thought oh my babys so sweet he sent some blue Rose's to me 
My eyes filled with tears when I thought this 
Because I did not want to receive blue Rose's like this

36 Years Ago This Day

It all happend 36 years ago today 
The date being april 24th of 1983 
Taking place on the highway 
Then quickly into eucalyptus tree 
The young man in a daze , walked away 
Opposite direction of the smashed up tree 
Walking directly onto the highway 
Getting hit by vehicles in lanes 1, 2 , and 3 
It saddens my heart to say 
From that moment on , 
He lived through memory 
The young mother to be 
Was suddenly
Awoken at approximately 3 
Collision occurred 30 mins before
So maybe you see
The young daddy to be 
Said his goodbyes to her and his baby 
He was only 17 about to graduate 
Unable to meet his daughter 
Before his fate 
Meeting eachother would have been great 
He had to go though , 
He was unable to wait 
Maybe he'll wait 
For her at heavens gate 
He died april 24th , she was born 
July 13th of 1983
He lived on through her and memories 
She will never know her daddy 
Like no one knows their fate 
This is the way things had to be 
According to gods plan 
She will have to wait 
All family and friends were devistated 
To learn of this tragedy 
So much sorrow and sadness it created 
Even worry and concern 
For young mother to be 
His parents arranged a funeral 
For their son now belated 
The church overfilled with family and friends
This pain will go away in time 
As the heart mends 
There was not a single dry eye 
Everyone asked the lord 
Why did he die 
Carrigan arrived and slowly filled 
The cemetery 
Pawbearers cried silently as they carried 
His casket to where hed be buried 
He said he wanted blue carnations 
When they get married 
Blue carnations lay on the casket 
The young men carried 
She wondered why he left her and his 
Baby she still carried 
She asked "why did you take him ?"
She asked why he died ? 
She asked god to take away 
The pain she felt inside 
She wondered if she'd see him again 
On the other side 
She was pregnant , left alone 
And horrified 
As the blue casket lowered 
All her feelings intensified 
Everyone bowed their heads 
As they cried 
So many lives changed the day he died 
It took a long time until all 
The tears had dried 
There wasn't a single dry eye 
For their loved one had to die 
As everyone said their final goodbye 
And heard his mother's painful cry 
She wanted to know why 
Her son so young had to die 
They all were burt and asked GOD why 
Or they wondered why 
The young father to be 
Was a popular guy 
And he was just too young to die 
He was gonna be a daddy 
Didnt deserve to die 
Hes gone away now , must cut that tie 
To be strong , they must try 
Hes got wings now and can fly 
Hes an angel now in the sky 
Watching from the heavens up high 
Over his baby he could not tell " bye "
Continued living through her 
Her birth took place that july

The End of the Rainbow

today when we went to visit you 
we saw a little leprachaun visiting with you 
He was there at the gravesite sitting with you 
he greeted us so happily 
" so very pleased to meet you " 
he had just completed a journey through a rainbow
and this was where it came to end 
the meeting place of such a beautiful angel 
who now is this leprachauns very dear friend 
which is far more valuable than a pot of gold
He said . . . ." I've traveled to the end of many rainbows 
at its end , many riches to behold 
but never have I found such a special love and beautiful angel "
"thank you , with all our hearts and souls we love our beautiful little angel "
is what this leprachaun was told 
To have him as a part of our life our family we are thankful 
he is so very special, 
he is OUR pot of gold 
he said. . ." yes this , I see 
discovering it was a pleasure for me 
you ought to consider yourself very very lucky . . . . 
in fact even luckier than me . . . . 
I tell you that rainbow , by far was the longest journey 
but the best journey for me . . . 
and it makes me very happy to see 
that the truest beautiful treasures 
at rainbows endings they be "
He shook my hand to congratulate me 
my heart felt warm immediately
and I smiled at the leprachaun looking up at me 
then that little leprechaun said to me 
"it's a pleasure meeting grama RITA and baby FRANKIE . . . . 
I must run along now , your so very lucky 
to have known your beautiful angel s
who I got to meet at the end of this rainbow 
they are good dear friend s who now I know . . . . 
that I'm glad to now know . . . . 
I've found my luck and now I must go 
to find , to chase another rainbow 
oh wait and by the way ,
One more thing I must say 
to you and your family . . . 
do have a HAPPY HAPPY st Patrick's day 
and do remember your luck not just today but EVERYDAY
to you this I say
. . . . once more. . . . 
HAPPY ST PATRICKS DAY

1 Month Ago Tomorrow

Tomorrow is January 26th an I wish I could rewind back to december 
To a day that I will always remember 
The day GOD sent me a precious/beautiful treasure 
1 of the 4 most happiest days ever if I could, I'd do it all over again with pleasure 
If I could, I'd do it again with pleasure 
All these feelings, go way beyond measure 
The good and the bad, all mixed together 
The happy and the sad, lives inside me forever 
At 0556 I'll remember waking up separated from you 
I can still feel you move inside me before they put me to slaeep 
you inside me I wanted to keep just maybe at least another 2 weeks 
I woke up without you in my womb 
Replace with a horrible pain inside 
Then the nurse pushed on my stomach, I started to cry 
Did she have to do that? Please tell me why? 
No wait I'd rather know more about the pain that's inside 
Of my heart and my body the most horrible pain in my life 
Some comfort came when I hear that my babys alive and doing okay 
1 pound and 5 ounces, december 26th, my babys birthday 
Opened the box , memories on display 
I wish I had more than a box to remember my baby today 
Your tiny little outfit and footprints in a shell 
The tiny beanie you wore on your head fit you well 
Half way into the box, I catch a smell 
Of you, my baby. I want you with me now 
The day you were born december twenty six 
You weren't due until april, on the 24th 
So quickly so suddenly, you were called forth 
It seemed when called, you quickly came forth 
I'm left with these feelings, I love you I miss you of course

Mommys Bible Arrival

mommy was woken up by your early arrival 
she decided it was time to open up the bible 
as she read she realized it was time to be more mindful
she ask god to forgive her for being so spiteful 
what she went through with you she felt it was so frightful 
she saw things now in a different way she seemed more insightful 
she knows now she wants to change her ways and be a righteous prideful. 
she understood you came to soon because changes to be made were vital 
one day soon real soon a status she'll entitle 
she said the life we live right now is just not even rightful 
she seems different now , she said GOD sent her a disciple  
in the past she had been oh so trifle 
I think maybe you were her disciple
Now the future is filled with smiles and a happiness so delightful

Still Here

The day that I felt the most pain inside 
Was the day that my baby died 
A month and a few days have gone by 
Sleepless nights and countless times I've cried 
The pain that I gained that day 
Will heal in time, some will say 
Others show they think it will/should just go away 
The pain is still here 
I think its here to stay 
I dont believe it'll go away
The day I felt the most pain inside 
Was the day that part of me died 
Funeral came and went with/as time went by 
Dreams repeated and countless times I've cried 
The pain that I gained that day 
Has left me feeling this way 
I've never felt this way 
I've never gained a pain this way 
The pain is still here 
I think its here to stay 
I dont believe it'll go away

Never Part

Written on 
Date : 25/03/2020



Tomorrow you would be 3 months old 
The sadest story is one left untold 
The shortest story to ever unfold 
I wish I could go back to that december day 
I wish I could rewind somehow some way 
I wish you were here so we can celebrate 
You turning 3 months in 1 more day 
I dont think that my pain has lessened truth be told 
It seems so much longer than 3 months ago 
At the same time , it seems like yesterday 
not 3 months ago 
I continously think about you and y u had to go 
I constantly blame myself . I think u already know 
Your always on my mind 
Forever in my heart 
It just hurts so much now that we re apart 
Your due date is next month which isnt very far 
Wish I would've taken better care from the very start 
The day you were born it was the happiest part 
At the same time along with the day u went it was the saddest part 
I know you had to go for a reason . That reason broke my heart 
Because for that reason we are now apart .
I will love you forever .
 And forever I will keep u in my heart
I pray that one day we will be together 
Like we should've been from the very start 
I thought losing you would've brought our family together 
It seems like it's only torn us apart 
I wish that I could've held u forever 
Wish we would've never had to part

The Most

Sitting there posted
Looking down to the floor
Thinking bout the most and
How there is no more
It was all a waste and
So there will be no more
Stay where it stands
That's what it's there for
Manipulating demands
Wont be met no more
Couldn't do it first hand
Anyways . . . .so what for ?
Took the dealt out hand
And walked out the door
Probably what was planned
Maybe what's in store
Saw heaven and ran
So the chance . . . No more
Now the devils biggest fan
How much will he pay for
The soul of a son of man
If he wants to buy more
That is now the plan
To Find the devil once more
And to hold out the hand
That hold the soul of a whore
How much will he pay and
Will he need it any more?

April 24th of 2020

04/24/2020 Today is your due date my little BABY 
Today was the day the dr's said youd arrive 
A lot of emotions surface , because we
Already said hello and had to say goodbye 
When they told me the date It was fine by me 
One thing that I now see
Is that its GODS plans that we must abide 
I do wish that today you were here with me 
With more days ahead of you , to thrive
Somedays are sad , some days I'm angry 
I'm just hurt because your not alive 
Im blessed tho, because an angel is what GOD gave me 
When he sent you into my life 
I just cant help but to think how we 
Could be meeting today for the very first time  
It hurts my heart when I sit here and think 
You couldve been alive inside me 
this entire time  
Just 4 months ago you were here with me 
Since you've been gone ,
 I feel a way no words can describe 
I believe one day you'll be back with me 
Until that day I'll patiently wait and see 
Today we could've said hello but we've already had to say goodbye
