Christopher's Poem

I’ve tried to help you, and treat you fair;
But in your mind, you think I don’t care.

I know I haven’t done everything right;
But trust me, I continue to put up a fight.

Your happiness is all I ever hoped for;
I know you never meant to make my trust sore.

You do what you know how to survive;
Life for you has been about staying alive.

The hardships you’ve had to always endure;
You never knew what was in store.

You’ve done so well, and I know you’re tired;
Your bitter and angry and wish to retire.

But try once more, I’ll be by your side;
I promise I’ll never wash out with the tide.

We have a long journey, me and you;
I’m committed, I promise, I’m part of the crew.

Everything Will Be Okay

Lay down my dear to sleep tonight
Rest your head and feel alright

Dream of peace, throw your worries away
Everything will be okay

You’re in my heart and on my mind
Our love is ours, one of a kind
One I never thought I’d find

For this treasure, we sometimes pay
But everything will be okay

I will always be right here, close by your side
Together, we’ll take the journey of life for a ride

You’re my sweetie and beside you I lay
Everything will be okay

Forever I’m yours and you are mine
Our one of a kind love is mighty fine

I don’t know what else to say except
Everything will be okay

Life Cycle

My friend and my foe
Enmeshed from head to toe
A deamon’s prison ingested
The deeper fall I go

Prisoned by the evil
Surrounded by the haze
The viscous cycle created
Continues like a maze

Lost and found again
I think I’m free from sin
My past and future jagged
This battle I must win

People think they know me
Perceptions cruel and wrong
I’m stronger than they think
Learning more as I go along

The struggle and the joy
This life we must accept
I know myself the most
So I will tell it best

Growing more each day
My voice a whisper low
I turn the volume up
So I can hear and know

I will travel thru
The good days and the bad
I’ll focus on the feelings
Both the happy and the sad

I will exude love
For this is what’s in me
Despite the bitter hate
That seems to always be

All I want is peace
Within the world and me
Imagine only love
And what we all could be

But all I can control
Is what I choose and do
My present being lives and dies
My inner soul renews

The next time I’ll know more
I’ll live another story
My one last dying wish
A world of peace and glory

To My Family

I stay up all night thinking
About the entire day
How to make things different
To stop being afraid

I wish I could reach out and call
I know they really love me
They want to know about my life
But I don’t think they’ll see

My life is different from before 
This I do agree
But who I am and was before
I’m closer now to free

There are things that I must change
To have peace and to be
All I’ve ever dreamed of
Living and feeling free

I’ve found my mate, my lover
My family, my best friend
He’s older and he’s different
On him, I do depend

Our love is real and true and kind
He needs me, I need him
My family doesn’t accept me now
They’ve judged him on a wim

How do I live my life
Without my mom and dad
I know they want the best for me
But what they do is bad

They always expect the worst of me
And show me no trust too 
Despite the path I’ve laid till now
It doesn’t matter what I do

I’m proud of who I have become
A person honest and true
Why can’t they just be happy now
Sit back and watch how I grew

They created who I am in part
Their job is now to see
That I will choose my life and dreams
And who I want to be

I’m thankful and appreciate 
All that they have done
And want them to believe in me
And trust my life’s begun.

I’m estranged now from my brother
His wife and his family
My best friend Kim is worried
Of the life that I lead

They think that I have chosen bad
And not fulfilled my dreams
Assuming this about my life
Without consulting me

I wrote these words to express
How I feel to them
I hope that they will listen
And that acceptance will begin

I want them to stop assuming
Always the negative and the worst
And believe I can be happy
Help me lift my bad luck curse

I know it may be hard
To accept Charlie
But they will have to try this now
As he is part of me

If only they would give themselves
The chance to know him well
A person with a soul they’d love
If they could only tell

I hope my parents find a way
To understand my life
If they can’t accept me now
Stab me with a knife

This is how important you are
My beloved family
So can we please start over now, fresh and anew
This will make me happy
And Charlie wants this too

I need you with me by my side
In my life I do.
I love you and I miss you much
I hope you feel this too.

To You

A thought for you I share
My passion runs so thick
Be true to you and love yourself
It’s hate that makes you sick

Be kind and be accepting
Of all you come to know
Be an honest friend, 
And not your neighbor’s foe.

Judgement is a breeder
War and greed it makes
For love is the answer
This is all it takes

Listen to your voice
Trust you and those you meet
Allow yourself the freedom
It’s the hate that you must beat.

You don’t always need be right
See what other’s see
For this will bring you life and peace
Feelings honest and free
 
I hope this helps you find your way
A life you choose to live
I’m happy now I’ve written this
My purpose was to give

Battling a Tragedy

Jaded, broken, torn apart
Destined sadness from the start.

Young and pregnant, she was given away
Intentions sincere, a family her way.

Unhappy and empty, her past a bitter plague
Gratified and astrayed, began a tortuous brigade.

Three birds chirping, one got away
Learning and surviving alone everyday.

Refuge for the second, angry and afraid
Found solace and love where the sore was first made.

The baby still lurking, fluttering her wings as she lay
Hurting and broken, she’s trying, needs, and wants to find her own way.

The love of a father, poisoned by that day
He chose to fly away, and for his children to pay.

He spent his life sorry for the path that he lay
Battling his demons that were born in that hay.

He is stronger, smarter, and closer than ever today
To healing his soul and those that he made.

His courage, his passion, his endurance I say
I will honor, cherish, and support all the way.

His struggle and fight will still carry on
He will never give up, not until he has won.

Cruel Intentions

What you’ve done to me is cruel
And only because I don’t live by your rules.

The complaints truly should be on you
Your words and ways are that of a fool.

You think you’re right and have all the answers
But the sickness you breed is really a cancer.

It will catch up to you, later in life
You will feel a pain like the stab of a knife

I know because it was done to me
By people who are sad, cruel and rude, that’s you.

And people like me, will help you with care
As you would only sit there and stare.

You’ve tried to stop me from pursuing my dreams
By cutting me up at the seam.

You’re depriving others of caring first rate
As you continue your quest to contribute to hate

But, destiny prevails, it’s real and it’s great
Despite all of you, I’ll pursue my fate.

My Baby

My precious little baby girl.
Beautiful puppy, as pretty as a pearl.

Your entered my life, brought love and joy.
And made me smile as you played with your toys.

I watch you grow, so healthy and bright.
I love you dearly, you make everything alright.

My child, my baby, I want you to know.
I’ll always take care of you, wherever you go.

I hope you never have to be away.
Because as long as you’re here, all is okay.

Your kisses are sweet, so luscious and wet.
Oh, how you are the most wonderful pet.

Your paws are so soft when you put them in my hand.
You are by far the greatest doggy in the land.

To Mom and Dad

Finding fault in all you do
I hope to please the very few

The two that brought you to this life
Seem to cut you like a knife

They just don’t seem to really know
Their judgments hurt you very so

Wishing you could reach their mind
Help them understand, be kind

Wanting them so badly to
Accept and love the inner you

Don’t they know that life brings change
You never stay forever same

How can I get thru to them
Tell me now, I can’t pretend

Can’t describe the pain you feel
They just don’t see, it’s there, it’s real

You question if they still love you
The saddest thought you ever knew

Can’t they see the hurt create
Wonder why they take the stake

If they read this, they will see
That this is me, will always be

The daughter that they raised and cared
The same kind soul, the one that’s scared

Always dreaming what could be
If only they would see me for me

There are things we don’t agree
But this is part of life, you see

Open up your heart and mind
To my world and life be kind

I need this from you mom and dad
Come back to me, and don’t be mad

I love you both with all my heart
Don’t want to live our lives apart.

Trials and Tribulations

Given up at the start
Taken quickly from the heart

Right away, feel the pain
No longer safe, warm, and sain

Always needing, wanting more
Not getting what you’re asking for

A crying shame, a permanent sore
Only a glimpse of what is in store

Slowly losing what’s inside
Inner self begins to hide

Finding fear in all around
Never want to make a sound

Forced to carry on the day
Always choosing the wrong way

Later on, you go away
Learn the part of life you pay

Alone and tethered, but free at last
Trying to forget the past

Angry thoughts the mind will show
No matter what they will not go

Sadness creeps without a warn
Feeling broken, hurt and torn

Understanding how it goes
That some don’t know they could have chose

It’s up to you to make it right
Have to give it all your might

Hope will truly once prevail
One day you will finally sail.
