Blair Bettley Poem
Today my heart is hurting
As tomorrow you wont be there.
I didnt know you were going
Or i would have been there to care.
I hope you are at peace now
In heaven up above.
If only i could have saved you with my unconditional love.
A piece of my heart went with you
on that very day. Its never been the same, but i hope you hear me pray.
For I think of you often, i speak up to you each day. The laughs and the memories of you will never fade away.
You meant the world to me
Perhaps i never let you know but when i see you again you will, as it is the first thing i will show.
I know when it is my turn my heart will ease to see the light.
As i dream of hugging you again and holding you so tight.
Our story didnt finish
That wasnt a goodbye.
But merely i must go for now.
I will watch you from the sky.
To know you are my angel guarding over me, brings me comfort every day.
But i still wish you were here with me.
Written with love

Blair Bettley Poem
Although the days seem dark
There's still light there within
You may not see it shinning now
While your feeling pretty dim
But believe that people see you
shinning just like a star
So instead of drifting off
Please stay here where you are..
If people only knew
The pain you were going through
I'm sure everyone would hug you
To remove your feeling blue
If only you could see yourself
The way others do
Perhaps it would be enough
To cure that feeling blue
Your special in many eyes
And loved so very true
So if today's a tough day
Read this to pull you through
Life can be a battle
I'm battling here now too
But let's fight back together
If I can you can too
Life is worth the living
It's precious through and through
If you can not see it now
Believe what I say is true
Tomorrow can be so different
If you hold on you will see
Tomorrow is a blessing
For both you and me

Blair Bettley Poem
My days seem so dark now
I'm struggling to find some light
But I know it's not forever
I know I need to fight
I'm lost within myself
Wallowing in my own dispare
But when i look to the mirror
I know that strong girls still there
Today has been a tough one
Iv made some big mistakes
But tomorrow I'm going to learn from it
I'm looking for some faith.
My strength hasn't left me
I'm not weak like I believe
Life is trying to teach me
That we walk on cobble streets.
The path isnt smooth
It's not an easy ride
But it does bring us strength
Which will then lead to our pride
Be proud of who you are
All of the time
Struggling after all is not a sort of crime.
Sometimes we just need to pause
To take a little time
Let our minds clear the mist
So we can see the clearer sites.

Blair Bettley Poem
Sometimes I am on a high
Other times on a low
I never know what personality i will show.
Some days I don't know what's happening to me
I don't feel myself but what could this feeling be ?
Iv searched for so long
It's really draining for me
Trying to find answers for this iratic side of me
I feel bat sh*t crazy
This effects me a lot
My days can be hazy
My nerves become shot.
But when I am good
I am high like the sky,
Life feels amazing,
I chat to everyone passing by
Next day I could wake
Feeling so gloom
It makes me feel like the elephant in the room.
So many sides of me
It can be tough to relate
Who am I?
What's happening?
Why am I in such a state
This isn't me nor who I want to be
I just want to be normal
Like I felt I used to be.

Blair Bettley Poem
To the man i met in spain
By the pool in baywatch gear
I could never have imagined
Wed create a life so dear...
I would catch you gazing over
But i was blindly unaware
Of the connection between us
That was clearly there.
The holiday was short
We only shared a little while
But in those short moments
You always made me smile.
You made me feel so safe
But i was blind to see
That you the man in baywatch gear
Was infact the man for me.
The holiday was over
We went our seperate ways
But i had no idea wed speak
to each other from that moment,
every single day.
Our connection grew stronger
But in miles we were far apart
We began to lose touch
The distance got too much
Shortly down the line
I moved back home
Our lifes were so different then
But unbeknown to us
That connection had never gone
We had no idea
Our hearts would reconnect
When i stumbled across you
Living opposite my doorstep
We began chatting yet again
You asked me on a breakfast date
I cant describe that moment other
than true fate.
We were meant to be together
Now its so clear to see
As i could never imagine me without you
Or you without me.

Blair Bettley Poem
The gambler
It fills my body with heat
From my head to the bottom of my feet
An urge so strong
I know its wrong.
But it takes control of me.
I can go in with my purse full
I leave with nothing but guilt
It eats me alive, knocks me ill
But that drive for more never leaves me.
Everything iv got i put in
Then sorrow eats me alive
when i dont win
Why do i do it to myself
It kills my mental health
Why can i not just quit?
I make myself worse with this sh*t
The colours are bright
Each spin lures you in
Your chasing a win
That never comes in
Its not worth the stress i put myself under
For the sake of a 5 second wonder
Because even if i win i put it back in
And im back to square one.
I never thought this would be me
I never knew this addictive part was inside me.
Now iv had enough
I know it will be tough but im done with it all
Im leaving it to flee to be gamble addiction free.

Blair Bettley Poem
Your looking at me
But are you there ?
You look so lost just sat in your chair
Our hearts are breaking seeing you this way
If we could change it, believe that we would take your dementia away.
We are grieving the loss of the man you should be.
What we should be doing, where we should be.
Each day you drift a little further away
But I hope you still realise we're with you every step of the way.
We know that your still in there.
So we will never give up, wel never stop caring or showing our love.
Your more than just you.
Your everything to us.
We're trying our best
I hope were doing enough.

Blair Bettley Poem
Life is full of lessons
At the time it is hard to see
Things don’t happen for badness
But to strengthen you and me.
Tomorrow may seem unbearable
Today was really rough.
Hard times don’t last forever so keep moving forward when its tough.
Everything is to teach us
We learn as we grow.
Better days are near us
I truly believe that is so.
As each day finishes
Tomorrow is brand new
So re-create your story
That ability lies with you
