Waiting... By: Candice
He listens in the dark at the warfare in the distance.
With each passing day his heart grows colder.
His passion for violence grows immensely
and the remnants of his " once was life" are no longer fresh in his mind.
Gunfire and roadside bombs were now a part of his everyday life.
He''d give anything to be at home, warming a bottle for a midnight feeding,
or preparing to change a diaper who had been a victim of a disastrous explosion.
He smiles to himself thinking of his new baby boy
and prays to God that he will return home safely to hold the precious miracle of life
that he had not yet laid eyes or hands on.
He tightly closes his eyes to hold back the threat of oncoming tears.
Images of a deadly blast just days before crowd his mind,
He begins to weep.
This war torn life would affect him for all eternity.
He was in fact, a victim of war.
He would never know another restful night.
Rest doesn''t come easy for a man who has seen men blown to pieces by bombs and lifeless
on the terrain.
However the disaster of a lost life somehow brings him strength to drudge through another day.
He takes out the crumpled birth announcement.,
reads the print and gently tucks it away.
He had never known such an emptiness.
Everyday he waits.
For what he is not sure.
He just prays in the end, it will have been worth it.

Brandon And Candice Lucas Poem
Baby Girl By: Brandon Lucas
You are the sunshine of my life baby girl
and you deserve the moon and stars
and everything in this world.
You know I''ll be right by your side
whenever you call.
You know I''ll be there to pick you up
whenever you fall.
I know I haven''t always been there
whenever you needed me.
And I know I''ve done a few bad things
that you should have never seen,
but I swear to you child
that things are gonna change.
So don''t be ashamed of me
because I love you.
Well time goes by and it seems my friend,
that things aren''t what they should have been.
I know I''ve messed up time after time,
but things are gonna be just fine Baby Girl.
Now that I''ve told you how I feel,
just know my love for you is real
and your always in my heart until the day death do us part.
Baby girl... I love you.

I'll Be There... By: Brandon Lucas
I call out your name,
but you can''t hear me.
I reach out to touch you,
and you are nowhere near me.
I''ve tried and tried
and feel I''ve failed
and done by best
to no avail.
Look in my eyes
and tell me you need me.
I''ll give you my hand
and let you lead me...
to anywhere I don''t care.
As long as you love me
I''ll be there.

Brandon And Candice Lucas Poem
Dear...??? By: Candice and Brandon
I listen...
I wait....
Not wanting to hear what you have to say
Not wanting to comment on the negativity that spews from your mouth like vomit.
The things you speak of are wretched.
And the tone you take is ignorant.
My affiliation with you was not by choice.
By choice I would banish your existence from my life.
Stain my walls with the blood of your suicide.
Watch me as I chuckle with unadulterated pleasure.
Do not say you are sorry.
Speak nothing at all.
Give me the satisfaction of hearing your final breaths tainted by the gurgling of blood
filling your lungs.
I want to dismember you the way you have done my heart.
I want to follow you to hell to watch you perish.
Why do I love you so much?...

Brandon And Candice Lucas Poem
All I Need... By Candice
I lay my head on your chest
and the stresses of the day melt away
as the soft rhythmic beating of your heart
puts me in my safe place.
A place so comfortable that my body
seems to melt into yours
and we become one.
The soft kisses you place on my forehead
warm my body with a euphoria that
no street drug could mimic.
My safe haven is your arms...
My lullaby is your heartbeat...
and my addiction is this wonderful man
who cradles me like a child.
This man who protects me.
This man who takes it upon himself
to ensure my safety...
and at the days end,
When I am tucked away in your blanket of protection,
I know that this is where i have longed
to be all day.
Right here...
Right Now...
This is all I need.

Brandon And Candice Lucas Poem
Shadow By: Brandon and Candice
Shed some light on my darkest hour.
Close my eyes and let me see
what it is you think of me.
Close your mouth and speak to me.
Utter blissful nothings from the darkness
in which you hide
things that are prevalent.
Speak only truth and countless emotions.
Things that pain you to speak of.
Things that give you joy to share.
Things that in some disturbed way give me satisfaction just knowing that they haunt you.
Give me the key to the black door where your inner child is locked away.
Tucked in the abyss, reaching and crying and begging to be set free.
Ebony and crimson walls mirror what was your inner beauty.
And the entity of the pain you have endured is real.
Not knowing you shroud these thing and hide the beautiful articulation of your existence.
Hold me with your amputated hands.
and do not be afraid to point out my mistakes.
It is time we say goodbye.
It is sad that no one will ever know you...
This person I have tried hard to set free.
Take Care...
Goodbye until we meet again.
