V   violent   vixen   voracious   visualising

Christmas is supposed to be joyous
But my feelings inside are dead
My heart heavy like lead
I’m holding on just...by a thread

I wish my smiles were real
Meaningful, sincere and true
I wish I could get a clue
Why inside I am so blue.

I am a lonely person
I don’t have many friends
Now is the time to find some
Before my journey ends

I love to listen and talk
I have many secrets to share
Please let me find that person
That special someone who “will” care.

In the dark of night
The sea is black
The only light
From the lighthouse stack

All the sea’s creatures
Below the water line
The life on the beaches
Where the sand is so fine

Live as one being
Encompassed by dark
One eye all seeing
Wild ocean park.

The high-class Prostitute life
Her life full of secrets and lies
Untruths and betrayals are rife
But this life she vehemently denies

Her daughter, left to fend for herself
No choice but to grow up quick
Her needs shoved to the back of a shelf
Forgotten as the dust layers grow thick.

This is a note to say Thank You
For all that you do
All your kind gestures
That helps get me through

You are there so much
With your kind human touch
My spirit you lift
And give hope that I clutch

So thank you to thee
To you from me
For the gifts from your heart
For giving me friendship…Mon Ami.

You are so important to me
I hope you know how much
I love you
And this love gets stronger
And stronger each day 
we are together
You make me laugh
You keep the smile
on my face
You are funny, smart and beautiful
I know you are an
“Angel” that was sent to me
I thank God for you
Every day
Stay yourself and
Be yourself.

I’m feeling lonely
Haven’t found my soul mate
If only he’d appear...if only
Don’t let solitude dictate my fate

I need some human contact
A comforting companionship
Someone whose touch I will react
To become an intimate relationship

I have had no love for years
And I’m feeling quite numb
As I write this through my tears
And wish for happiness to come.

Head pounding
Noise resounding
Everything too loud
Avoid the crowd

One side of my head
Is giving me dread
Light becomes evil
It’s truly miserable

Pain is draining
Tears are raining
Strobe lights flashing
Head is smashing

As water stream from my eyes
I think I’ve met my demise
I have what is called a Migraine
And it is slowly driving me insane.

You’re unlike any other
By far THE best Mother
My love for you will not end
I’m proud to say you’re my best friend

I laugh and cry with you
But together we get through
You hold my hand when I’m in need
And patch me up when I bleed

I follow in your footsteps
And honestly have no regrets
I hope I can be a great Mum like you
So my daughter loves me the way I love you.

I would like to wish you
A very Happy Birthday
And I hope that all your wishes
And dreams come true today

Today it’s time to celebrate
With all your family and friends
The day you came into the World
Into joyous waiting hands

So it’s a Happy Birthday wish I give you
As each year passes…don’t ask why?
Keep having fun and enjoying life
Don’t let a wasted moment pass you by.

LOVE IS.....

The Strength you give me every day
The way you chase my blues away

The smile you put upon my face
The way you make my heart race

The butterflies flapping wildly inside
As my emotions take a crazy ride

Walking together, hands entwined
Being able to read each others’ mind

Feeling I’m home when you hold me near
As you whisper “I Love You” into my ear.

Being alive
Trying to thrive
It is hard
Be on guard

Heads in a spin
What World am I in?
Thoughts come crashing 
A knife is slashing

Blood is red
Am I dead?
No, it’s real
Cos I still feel

I want to be numb
But that is dumb
It’s life or death
Is this my last breath?

The attackers’ stare
Their violence they share
I fight for life
But I’m in strife

My eyes stop seeing
My soul stops being
The darkness grows
The silence flows.
