Premium MemberLonging To Hear Their Ghosts

I'll deafen my ears before everyone else disappears,
So I can have the most quietest peace of mind that hears their ghosts.
What would I give then for others to be their living hosts?

Missing You

In gratitude for mercy, I softly tread,
For all that we cherished, the words left unsaid.
Comforted by knowing you held me so dear,
Our laughter still echoes, though you're no longer here.
As I sit in reflection, the memories flow,
The weight of your absence, a heavy undertow.
Yet in sorrow, I find strength, a promise divine,
That one day in paradise, we will pick up the memories we left behind
Where death holds no power, and love knows no end,
In that radiant place, I'll reunite with you again
Never forgotten, your essence will remain,
In the smiles and the stories, through joy and through pain.
Until that sweet moment when our paths cross once more
I'll carry your love, forever I'll adore.
My Daddy

Premium MemberI miss you so much

Close friends don't know the pain I feel
My broken heart can never heal
Your sudden death was long ago
The pain I feel, close friends don't know

I can't forget your dying breath
Was long ago your sudden death
To think of you makes me upset
Your dying breath I can't forget

Alone each night, I feel so blue
Makes me upset to think of you
To laugh or smile does not feel right
I feel so blue alone each night

I'm depressed, there's no denial
Does not feel right to laugh or smile
I can't be bothered getting dressed
There's no denial, I'm depressed

Carry you

I carry you with me 
Everywhere that I go.

In my eyes,
In my smile,
In the way I walk,
How I talk, 
Even how I act and dress.

I am something of you merged,
Bits of what you were,
Pieces of what you are,
Snippets of what 
..you could have been,
And as I continue,
I will become something of you never seen.

I carry you 
In laugh and tears,
And memory and stories.
Most of all, I carry you
In my heart.

I carry you
As though you 
Are part of me.
How lucky I should be
To carry you at all.

But how unfair it is all the same.

I shouldn't have to carry you at all.
You should be here,
Carrying your own
With me by your side
As it's always been.

Missing

I'm lost
Without your hand
To hold

The walk
To school of life
Less bold

You vanished
In a Puff.
So quickly

My heart
So sad
My tummy sickly

No stop 
No hug
The speeding car

Whisked you
Away
No au revoir 

The color
In my life
Now blue

My hand
So cold.
I'm missing you

Raak jy aan my - English translation included

Raak jy aan my

Die more son is ‘n kus op my wang
So sag soos ‘n veer, raak jy aan my
met die son en maak my verlang,

Die straal in die maan lig, streel my oë
So sag en teer, raak jy aan my
dat ek jou sien met ander oë.

Die wind waai en my omhels
So hou jy my vas, raak jy aan my
Ek voel jou soos ‘n pels,

Die blomme ruik soos jy
Met die reuk van roos, raak jy aan my
Die blomblaare sag, voel soos jy,

Die reën en hael, storm wat woed
Wat oor my spoel, raak jy aan my
Ek voel jou hier binne my bloed.     
      

Touch me

The morning sun is a kiss on my cheek
As soft as a feather, you touch me
with the sun and stir my longing,

The ray in the moonlight strokes my eyes
So gentle and tender, you touch me
so I may see you with different eyes.

The wind blows and embraces me
So you hold me close, you touch me
I feel you like a fur,

The flowers smell like you
With the scent of rose, you touch me
The flower petals soft, feel like you,

The rain and hail, storm that rages
That washes over me, you touch me
I feel you here within my blood.

Premium MemberA Single Flower

Death came today... 
taking my sweet Jess from me; 
to an even better place, I pray, 
than this life we shared so passionately. 

If only I could just hold her, 
keep her a moment more; 
but alas, God has called for her, 
now she sleeps evermore. 

So many small things I should have told her, 
too many feelings left unsaid; 
I can only hope she sensed my love 
was stronger than words instead. 

As I pass through this day of lost love, 
there is but one thing to lessen my pain: 
her promise that one day, 
our two souls will be one again. 

So someplace I'll plant a single flower, 
brighten a lonely place; 
and hope she knows it blooms for two, 
an endless love for one never to be replaced.

As the world tends to go around
I look up at the sky, from the ground

Can't shake this feeling of how blue it can be
So, I ask myself why has God chosen me

Don't get me wrong it a beautiful thing
To be chosen by the creator like an angel with wings

Then, out of the light comes the darkness
People suffering and killing and families remorsing

Love one are being taken away too soon. 
They're lying on the floor in the back bedroom
 
Their last call was for help, but no one was there
Someone came thru the door and began to stare
 
The person was gone. Cpr didn't help
Why am I chosen to be the angle of death
 
I realize no help is coming, and that won't change
We just adjust in life and deal with the pain

So we buried the thought in the back of our mind 
We just deal with the situation time after time
  
If we call for help, it wouldn't even matter. 
The pain is buried in our minds like a close chapter

Paris, the tiny star

In a world too big for one so small,
You walked with pride, stood ten feet tall.
A heart of gold in a dainty frame,
Paris, sweet pup, we still say your name.

Your paws once tapped across the floor,
A rhythm we won’t hear anymore.
But echoes linger in every room,
A light that cuts through even gloom.

Wrapped in bows or nestled in bed,
Chasing sunbeams, turning heads.
With ears like sails and eyes so wide,
You ruled our hearts with gentle pride.

Though time was short, the love was deep,
And now in dreams, you softly sleep.
But still we feel you, still you stay—
A piece of us that won't drift away.

The world’s less bright without your cheer,
But we’ll hold you close, forever near.
Rest now, Paris, your journey done,
Our little star, our tiny sun.

Premium MemberThe Heart

A gaping wound pierces my heart in the shape of my be-
loved.
Someday it will scab over.
Someday,
far, far in the future,
it will turn into scar tissue.
I will rub it and it will be soft and smooth and comforting.
It will be with me,
in the shape of my love,
for as long as I live.

snowflake meatball sandwich

snowflake meatball sandwich
it has been a long time
in honor of you, i add the monterey jack
it is such a shame that you died alone with all phones completely off
the tears fall quietly as i prepare bacon cheeseburger chili
while looking at the blue lake accepting kisses from the sun,
i think about the dried blood on the well worn rope
i become lost as i butter the potato rolls while wondering what i missed along with others

snowflake meatball sandwich
so many lifetimes have passed
as a tribute to you, i pour the blue cream soda in the frosted glass that says 'Live Freely'
it is such a shame that you died alone with all communication completely gutted
the tears fall with more volume as I take put some of the taco salad in a large paper bowl
while looking at the blue lake react pain of the expressive teardrop rain,
i think about the old, well worn dining room chair with 'Brooks' carved in the center of the seat
i become frozen in the state of missing completely oblivious to everything turning subzero cold

A Grandmother's Eid

The sun rose gently, soft and warm,
But the house feels quiet, missing her charm.
Eid mornings filled with light and grace,
Now hold echoes of her smiling face.

She'd sit by the door, hands soft and old,
A shawl wrapped tight against the cold.
Her eyes would shine with joy anew,
As we lined up, eager for what we knew.

A crisp ten-rupee note, folded with care,
Slipped into our hands with a loving stare.
To the world, it was small – just a simple bill,
But in our hearts, it holds value still.

We’d run and laugh, feeling so grand,
That tiny treasure safe in hand.
To her, it wasn’t the amount she gave,
But the love and blessings that she saved.

Now Eid arrives, but she’s not here,
Her absence is sharp, yet love draws near.
I close my eyes and I can see,
Her gentle smile, watching over me.

The ten rupees may fade away,
But the memories will always stay.
Her kindness lingers, soft and deep,
A love eternal, ours to keep.

So as we gather, side by side,
We know she’s with us, full of pride.
And every Eid, in hearts and prayer,
We found our great-grandmother there.

Premium MemberMissing You



Our life will go on without you, but nothing will be the same.
We will have to hide the pain and heartaches when someone speaks your name.
Sad will be our hearts that love you, and in silence, our tears will begin to fall.
Living our lives without you will be the hardest part of it all.
You did so many things for us, and your heart was always kind and true.
And when we needed you the most, we could always count on you.
The special years with you will not return when we gather all together.
But with the love of you within our hearts, you will walk with us forever.

Missing You

Amidst the throes of what I miss,
'Tis not the grandeur, but the bliss
Of simple things, in quiet grace,
That brings your absence to embrace.

It's in the moments unadorned,
A shared laugh, a sunlit morn,
Where memories, like gentle streams,
Carry soft nostalgic themes.

The mundane sights that once we shared,
Now whispered echoes, tenderly bared,
A flower, a meal, the clouds above,
Stirring thoughts of boundless love.

Yet in this longing, there resides
A solemn truth that gently guides,
For in your rest, serene and deep,
No more the pain, no more to weep.

I do not crave your sorrowed past,
But oh, your presence unsurpassed,
For in its absence, stark and true,
I find myself missing you.

Premium MemberLoneliness

LONELINESS

The times I shared with you
The laughter we also had
You helped me through with good days
And supported me with the bad.

The winter is setting in now love
The fire I guess keeps me warm
Remember the funny old times
Where we sat up till dawn.

I think of these memories
I smile when I think of you 
I cry because you are not with me
I laugh at the silly things we used to do.

The house is now quiet
The kids grown, now left Home
Nothing but photos and loneliness 
Is in this house with me alone.

I know I will see you again one day
But for now we are departed
Not for long love, I miss you so
Missing you with all my heart.

So please spare a place for me
Right next to your side 
I'll be there when I can
And when the time is right.

Then we two shall be together again
Loneliness will be gone forever more
Hand in hand we will walk again 
Down to heavenly doors.
