I Miss You

Poem: I Miss You
By: Ashley Eureeka Jones -Holmes
Dedicated to My Great-Grandma Mother 
Melvina Williams
November 21,1921-November 9,2009

I never thought I will say this but I miss you
I couldn’t wait another day once you were gone 
My whole world went down 
You were so sweet like honey loving and kind 
But grandma I wish you was still alive 
Most days I wish I would have died
I wish it was me who took your spot 
I know you are in a better place 
That’s peaceful and warm
Just thinking about it 
I’m all torn
I love you my Grandma
Some one that’s my everything and my all 
When it rains, I know that some of your tears will falls 
I never thought I will lose you
But I know you are still here with me 
That’s why I will never fear 
Grandma, Grandma you’re my heart 
I wish I can bring you back
Without you it’s breaking me apart
You always used to tell me keep your head up and always pray
I wish you would have stayed here on earth it’s no one like you that could ever take your place
On the day you left me I was lost 
I didn’t say good-bye, before I knew it, they said you were gone 
Please come back to me 
You not being here is making me weak
I know your spirit is flowing over me and within me 
To hold 
To protect 
I know you never left me 
Even if I can’t see you 
I know you will always be here with me
I miss you

The Pain That Follows

Poem : The Pain That Follows
By: Ashley Eureeka Jones-Holmes


It's like I never get away,
I'm stuck in the same place
Going in circles
Trying to find my way out
But it follows me everywhere I go
In the morning, evening, at night 
It doesn't matter what time, what place, it creeps up on me
The pain of anger of guilt and regrets
This pain hurts I can feel it in my chest 
 The pain that follows you can never get away from it
Pain can be love 
Pain becomes painful
This  pain I didn't ask for 
You can forget about the pain
But you can still feel it
The that pain that follows

My Other Half

Poem: My Other Half
By: Ashley Eureeka Jones- Holmes

With out you my soul is dead 
My heart wouldn’t beat
My eyes will be closed 
My lips will be sealed
You give me life, the air, the sight,
You make the rhythm of my heart
You give my soul complete peace
You put my mind at ease 
I don’t know where would I be without you my soul mate
Being connected to you is so deep
Unfailing Love
Trust 
Compassion
Faith
Desire 
Strength 
Power
Those are the things I see in you 
I’m thinking this is all a dream
But true love prevails
It never fails 
We belong together
I can feel you
I felt your pain
The emotions that you shared
The thoughts that you have
Loving you is what I admire the most 
Heart to heart
Soul to soul
I know that we will forever be together 
And grow old
I love you with all my heart I hope you felt every word in the poem 
Because you are the only one that I want 
My Other Half……

It Took Over Me

Poem: It Took Over Me 
By: Ashley Eureeka Jones 
True Events 


I’m in the dark place
Up can’t sleep
To many thoughts going through my head 
Feeling depressed just want to die
Crying and Crying as the tears rolled down my face 
I feel so empty inside, I feel alone, no one cares,
But I know that I’m strong, every day fighting this illness
Trying to reach out 
I’m sitting here hurting all I see is the colors red and black
Hearing voices 
Head hurts, hands shaking, sweating, breathing heavily
I’m breaking down, lost don’t know which direction to go
Mhmmmm…. I’m ready to take my life, sitting in the car at the park
I look over seen my prescription 
I grab the bottle of pills shaking not realizing what I’m doing
At this moment this illness has taken over me completely 
I put the pill bottle to my mouth, swallowed, drowned with tears 
Feeling less of a person, confuse, worthless
What have I done to myself?
Coughing and coughing the pills are coming back up   
I just wanted to die, to feel numb at that time
To feel no pain, no hurt
The pills are all on floor of my car that came out of my mouth 
I said to my self why if I was gone it will be a better place 
No one will have to worry about me 
Still in this dark place right now 
Don’t know what am I saying or doing at this moment 
Shaking my head side to side
You think I’m crazy
These voices are still ringing in my head 
They want to hurt me 
It’s hard to deal with these things, when you don’t have support
It has taken over me completely 
Where is everyone that says they love me
Still wishing the pills would have stayed down in my stomach
But as I realize it was a blessing, that God was there with me to protect me
I got another chance at life even when I was at my worst God was there in, he has kept me
It Took Over me but it didn’t take my life 
I still have my strength in pride….
