I'M Sorry

 If you're wondering why I haven't made a step
Here I am giving you my answers
Hopeful I would reach you far
Anxious - if my words would be enough

I'm sorry for the late night arguments
I wish we didn't slept through it
I'm sorry for not paying attention
To the little things you did

I'm sorry for all the tears your eyes shed
I should've had just hugged you tight
I'm sorry for pushing you away
When all you ever wanted was just my hand

I'm sorry for making you wait and worried
For being in a mood of hating you deep
I'm sorry for all the ungiven kisses
I have given to the unknown happiness

To all the quarrels we had to go through
To all the cruel games we had played
To all the messages and calls we had ignored
I'm sorry for not understanding them right

And to my most painful memory, the fool was I
When the lights were off and when the curtains were down,
You gave me choices of impossible; if you turn around
I made it all possible - for opening the door


Her Day

She doesn't need a pen to write down the journey of her day; but she's inspired!
This day will remain a part of her for all time.
A day that has been well spent.
She has been true to herself and feels enlightened.
Tomorrow is another day, but one she knows she will not waste.
Time has been of importance for what she wanted to reveal to the two people she loves so dearly.
She has revealed herself completely and honestly and that's the best she could do.
Their realisation was of acknowledgement; unconditional in their acceptance.
She hugged them in turn and felt a tear fall.
A weight; it's so true, was lifted from her shoulders and she is still overwhelmed.
She wanted them to know her for the person she really is; the person she'll be for always.
No longer wanting to threat about what they might say or do because she loves them.
They love her and have told her so; her Mother shedding her own tear.
Her Father lightening his acceptance with a comment she'll always treasure.
She can truelly be herself now and hold her Parents support in her heart;
Never to be beaten down by those that fall short of understanding the person she is.

Gonna roar like them lions, and purr...
Aww,  ahh... and don't listen to them two legged humans
      Aww! you're not bad luck
Just because you're all black
     If I close my eyes everything is beautiful

All is black
    Whose the dummy that say's
Black cat's are BAAD   LUCK
     Love ya Man, stay here let me continue to hug ya

Premium Member I Know There Is a God

I know there is a God
Because He is the only one who
Counts the tears my soul cries
When my body and mind are numb
From the barbs of enemies and swords of friends.

I know there is a God
Because when I finally break the surface
Of my pain, gasping for understanding
To breathe humanity back into my being,
He throws me a lifeline and tows me to a place without judgment.
  
I know there is a God
Because when the elevator shoots to the top floor,
Butterflies churning, blood turned to bubbling adrenaline
He meets me in the stars, and never pushes the down button.

I know there is a God
Because I have faced the darkness of night that doesn't promise a sunrise in the morning,
And I have lost pieces of me to that eternal blackness
But remained whole, and felt the assurance that there was yet a torch burning on the other side that I would see again.

I know there is a God
Because undeserving of even the slightest reward for my last-place finish in the human race, He presented to me the most precious of trophies. I hugged my trophy close, and vowed to coach her to a better finish . . . Eyes on the prize . . . Not running, but stopping to notice every step, to relate to every face, to find and fill needs like potholes in the track. But most of all, to show people she knows there is a God.

Life Everlasting

Wrinkled was the hands that held the roses she had for sale
Her eyes holding back the story they longed to tell.

Crumpled her dress and her hair was all a mess but her smile
was filled with such spiritual beauty. A lovely lady, just a cutie.

I reached for the rose with such heartfelt admiration and I gave 
to her 3 times, the amount asked because she was to me a
sweet variation. 

I reached out and hugged her with love, and I deeply found myself
connected to her as once connected souls from another story, yet
to unfold. 

As we spoke of the rose's beautiful colors, I noticed her smile was like
my mother's. I paused for a moment and returned to her smile and 
I remembered the story told of God's eternal love and life everlasting.

Premium Member VIETNAM VICTIM

Dedicated to my Father, (R)Colonel US Army, 1931-1998, with endless love

Leaving for a year
for nightmares and fear
he came to say goodbye
or at least to try.

I did not speak,
didn’t open my eyes,
an unknown fear
had me paralyzed.

Daddy long stood in uniform
watching me tucked in warm.
My silence is memory that haunts -
there is a fulfillment I still want.

My pretend sleep,
him standing above.
we should have spoken,
held and shown love.

I only, barely, peaked 
at my Daddy’s face.
This regret won’t leave,
I mourn that lost embrace.

Did he know, did he realize,
his nine-year-old was alert 
behind closed eyes? 
He had always known
when I was in possum mode.
We should have hugged,
shown each other our love.
Did Dad live with regret 
over what I cannot forget?

Premium Member Simple Gifts

pennies were so priceless then
counting them like
Scrooge McDuck's gold
yet not in a greedy way
instead     a thankful way

no matter what it seemed to others
it was the best of times

upon a storage box we'd dine
with wine of the finest
         pink Catawba
in mismatched glasses
   carefully balanced and gleaming
in the light of a half burnt candle
its wax dripping between and upon
last night's dried traces
on the wicker hugged Chianti bottle

                 yet

if we could buy those times today
we just might trade
our bottle of Dom
our plush dining set
and our California king
for a cozy twin
because then nothing
was too small
nor too simple
to share...

Premium Member Have You Hugged a Llama Today

Have you hugged a llama today
Or a bunny or a kangaroo
You'll feel all squiggly and giggly inside
And a bit rumpity bumpity too

Not only will you feel all squiggly inside 
But these guys will be wearing a grin
They sure like receiving those huggeroonies
You'll notice their tails start to spin

So if you spy a sad looking teddy
Or a kitten with eyes full of tears
Tell them you love 'em and hold 'em tight
You'll chase away all of their fears

Tonight when mommy tucks you in
And gives you a big snuffily kiss
Remember the lonely animals out there
Blow them a kiss and don't miss

There's a moral here, haven't found it yet
Maybe it's hiding under a chair
Hugging llamas and other poor creatures
Really tells them you care
fun

Premium Member Zapped

She zapped.
Grabbed her bag and hit the map.
Flying on the highway. 
Clearing my mind that just blinded me.
Slapped my heart on the passenger seat.
Watched it as it pumped it’s last beat.
Picked it up, Squeeze hugged it tight.
Told my heart, We gonna be alright 
Looked at it, I then Stuffed it back in.
Now, is the time we win.
You get one true love in your lifetime.
That kind of love you want to keep running through your veins like a lifeline
Together, forever and a lifetime
So you do what ever is necessary to make every day like your first date and fix all your mistakes like its your last time.
If you want to keep this love together for years with endless nighttime’s. 
You’ll do all you can to make Every time the right time.

That Night

The moment when you held me 
When I really saw the purity in your words
When I heard the sadness in you’re tone
When you tried to seem okay 
But you were all broken 
When you gave me the words 
In no serious matter
As they sank deep inside me
I preserved the moment 
I kept it in me
I seized it into my heart
It was so true
I hugged you so deeply
You seemed so depressed
But you hugged me as well
You always were so funny and joketive 
You always were so happy and light
But as I saw you that night
You were so dull and dark 
You were so sad and miserable
You had a large weight on your shoulders
You worked so hard for everything
You admired every book you read
You gave me advice in every matter
You appreciated my writings unlike before
And you were just waiting for the moment 
It will all go away 
You were just waiting for you’re plead
To be answered
As I waved to you goodbye
And felt the coming tears falling from you’re eyes…
I left
