"my Mother" My Queen

You carried me for over nine months
You sheltered me and clothed me to the best way you could
You gave me love and taught me right from wrong
You tried to guide me in the right direction
You always stood behind me when I was in the wrong and caused nothing but 
heartache and pain
I regret putting you through what I have in the past
I have grown up and realized my mistakes which I have learned from
I look at you and appreciate what God has blessed me with
I was given a Queen that is beautiful,strong woman and has a heart of gold
a woman that deserves reconigition and shines in her own way
Although there's distance between us you're thought of and loved everyday
You should never doubt the way I feel
You're the Queen of my heart
I would never trade you..lend you and never forget you
Being a mother is a lifetime of giving love and care
Sometimes it seems like you don't know who I am but I'm just like you
I keep this inside because I am strong and it's close to my heart
I'm your baby girl but I'm going to make you proud because that is the gift I'm 
giving you
A mother is a lifetime of hardwork..dedication..and an everlasting love
Thankyou for being and having a heart that is so strong
I have been blessed in so many ways
In my eyes you're a rose that never dies and a friend for life
I Love You Mom

Soul of a Woman

In every woman lies a soul..and in the soul of every woman lies the secret of love 
Sometimes a man does'nt treat a woman right..but the way back to her heart lies 
in that same soul 
Your heart cries ..it bleeds 
Pain comes and goes but most of all it heals...forgives..and accepts new 
beginnings 
You hear promises and pleeding 
Amazingly you surprise yourself..you can feel again 
Caution.... 
Your life goes on and just when you feel and think you can't give yourself to 
another you can 
Love is something different each and everytime 
There's so much your eyes don't see...love is blind 
You may cry..you may feel the one you love slip away between your fingers 
It all hurts but than again we all been there 
Letting go of your dreams..hopes and visions is never easy..but than again who 
said love was easy 
Love can be pure and soft and untouchable only until the poison releases in the 
mind 
I've loved like I thought I could never love again.. 
At this point I realize it's you alone who chooses what is love and what is 
fictional.. 
Seperate the right from the wrong and use your head and not your heart..in a 
decision 
Remember in every woman lies a soul...

Devastation ..."ectopic Pregnancy"

Ectopic it was
Crying 
Tormented my mind
Obstacle of hardship
Pain (that  is deep and buried within my soul)
Initial shock
Crushed

Precious gift was taken from me
Remembered( you will always be with me)
Endless emotions
Grieving (was all I could do)
Never  had the chance to hold you
Anger
Never to hear your cry
Crying over you is all I could do
Year has past and it's your birthday

This is dedicated to my unborn child that I shall never forget and continue to walk  
with in my heart and thoughts everyday of  my days.....
"God Bless"

One Last Try

ONE LAST TRY
ONE LAST TRY WITH YOU AND OUR LOVE
HOPING AND KEEPING THE FAITH IN US
BREAKING THE ICE AND SPEAKING TO ONE  ANOTHER WITH A DECENT 
TONE
SPENDING A LITTLE MORE OF OUR EVENINGS TOGETHER
ONE LAST TRY
ONE LAST TRY TO REGAIN OUR HAPPINESS AGAIN
LOOKING INTO THE PAST MONTH AND SEEING OUR FAULTS
TRYING TOGETHER TO PUT THINGS ASIDE AND RESOLVE OUR ISSUES 
HEAD ON
TO STRENGTHEN OUR FOUNDATION AND BUILD BACK OUR DREAMS THAT 
BOTH OF US HAVE TURNED AGAINST
ONE LAST TRY
ONE LAST TRY IS ALL I FEEL I CAN GIVE
THE PAIN STILL LINGERS
MY LOVE STILL REMAINS
NO MATTER HOW BRUTAL OUR FIGHTS WE STILL RESIDE IN THE SAME 
HOUSE
WE STILL ARE GOING TO FIGHT THE OBSTACLES THAT ARE YET TO COME
SHARING A LOVE SO STRONG
BITTERNESS AND SELFISHNESS 
NO LONGER WANT TO SHARE
ONE LAST TRY
ONE LAST TRY TO CONTINUE ARE ATTACHTMENT
LET'S LIVE IN PEACE
STAY FOCUSED
CONTINUE TO GIVE IT IT'S TIME
TO HAVE THROWN IT ALL AWAY WOULD HAVE BEEN A WASTE
FOR ALL OUR EFFORT AND STRUGGLES HAS ONLY MADE US STRONGER AS 
INDIVIDUALS AND TWO OF US SHARING THE SAME SOUL
ONE LAST TRY
ONE LAST TRY TO SAVE US

My Father My Friend...Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to a man who is my everlasting friend
Thankyou is such a simple word
It can't show the emotion or depth of what my reasons are when I say it
Let me explain why no other card can express the meaning of my father
A man who has always been there for my mother and siblings
Giving us your utmost dedication and always putting us before you
When I look at you I see a man who was just a man
Until you came in our lives
You became a man who has taken us under your wing and had 
understanding..patience and more than enough love
I was to young to remember the first day you came into my life
But I remember the bond that grew as we built it over the years
Through happy..sad and trialsome times
But one thing I admired about you was you took me as I was and loved me no 
matter the circumstances
I remember the day I felt so proud of you and how our relatonship had grown so 
much
I realized that this man took upon himself to be my father
That was when I asked you to adopt me
You taught me alot about family values even though in my life I've tried and did'nt 
succeed yet
But I still know what they mean and one day I will have all these things
Because my father taught me not to give up and to be strong no matter what
You have passed on your wisdom over the years
At times I would'nt understand then what it is I understand now
If you did'nt guide me and help shape me
I would'nt be the complete woman I am today
Honestly I appreciate and can't express how thankful I am to have you in my life
A man is just a man from the outside
Your eyes are the windows to the world
Your feet have travelled your journeys
But your heart is pure and the love between a father and daughter flows
Like the streams that intertwine with the lakes which is everlasting
Thankyou and have a wonderful day

Holding My Tongue

Just the other day I felt our love astray
Holding my tongue gasping for air 
Just the other evening we went out as a couple but yet I felt we were'nt hole
Holding my tongue so I would'nt spoil our time together
Just the other early morning when the sex had just begun it was weak and had 
no force or vibe
Holding my tongue as I layed there wanting to cry
When I spoke to you your reply was a sigh and a simple sentence
Holding your tongue you need to learn and everything is alright
So tell me why you cheated and pushed me away making me question myself if 
there shall be better days
Holding my tongue to not have pushed you another inch away
Do you think I'm a doll that you can take of the shelf and play with when you feel 
the need
Holding my damn tongue  with fierce
Listen hear you have a strong beautiful lady in your life that you need to 
appreciate and show love and  that respect
Holding my tongue that you ask of me
No man in their soung mind could treat me so
Holding my tongue with bitterness and a foul taste
Thinking what a damn disgrace and this man has me misplaced
Holding my tongue I am certainly not
After I am human and have so much too give
Holding my tongue won't make things better
After all we have been through that I shall not sit and stress myself
Hold your own damn tongue because to me this journey did'nt just begun
Take your dirtyness of a self twisted mind and stop and think I'm wiser and have 
already read through the lines
Hold my tongue to the actions you've revealed that you think i'm blinded by your 
cold deserted love
Look into yourself and hold your head down in shame because to me my love is 
no game
Holding my tongue is not my style nor is the rules you have applied on our 
relation
You need to recongnize a lady and treat me like a lady
Holding my tongue is'nt my character and i'm not perpetrating a fraud so don't 
feel i'm going to live my life amongst being shady
Evaluation is not in the book of love nor is passing judgement the way you throw 
it at me with that famous curve ball
"HOLD YOUR OWN DAMN TONGUE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"take Me As I Am"

TAKE ME AS I AM
AS I SHALL TAKE YOU
GIVE ME TRUE AND FAITHFUL LOVE
AS I SHALL GIVE TO YOU
TRUST ME AND COMPFORT ME
AS I FOREVER DO WITH YOU
TAKE ME AS I AM FOR I AM STRONG ENOUGH TO RECOGNIZE MY 
STRENGTHS AND ACCEPT MY WEAKNESS
AS I SHALL SEE BEYOND YOUR WEAKNESS AND HELP YOU OBSTAIN YOUR 
STRENGTHS
TAKE ME AS I AM FOR MY LOVE IS'NT BITTER AND UNJUST
AS I SHALL SEEK THIS IN RETURN FROM ALL OF MY COLD LESSONS 
LEARNED
TAKE ME AS I AM AND WALK WITH ME IN YOUR HEART
AS I SHALL DO EVERY START OF MY DAYS
TAKE ME AS I AM FOR I AM ME
AS I SHALL TAKE YOU FOR YOU
TAKE ME AS I AM FOR ALL THAT I AM AND FOR NOT WHAT YOU WANT ME TO 
BE
AS I SHALL TAKE YOU FOR YOU AND ALL THAT YOU ARE
TAKE ME AS I AM SO WE CAN BECOME ONE AND LIVE A LONG HAPPY 
PROSPER LIFE
TAKE ME AS I AM FOR OUR LIFE HAS JUST BEGUN

Devastating Mother's Day

This mother's day is a day of tears and visions
Once again I have lost a miracle
A miracle and creation of life growing within me
Tears are all I can shed
Visions are all I have left
My smile turned upside down is the same feeling of my world
God works in mysterious ways
He only hands you something you can handle
Hmm
To have made a life on valentines day only to have it taken from me on mother's 
day
Truly how sad is that
Can't pick one word to express such a devastating blow
All in time I tell myself
Nothing comes before it's time
This mother's day I shed tears of my hope for a healthy baby that I shall never see
God Bless all of you have experienced the same pain

A Mother's Love ..For a Child So Young In Need

Tonight was my son's christmas concert and memorial for a little girl named 
Emily
Her life was tragically taken at seven in a half years old
By a highway ramp that was to short in length to emerge
I was so proud of my son for ttrying and preparing himself for this evening
You see the last week he has taken this hard
I bought him a new suit and even let him pick out the flower he wanted to wear on 
his jacket
A pink rose
He looked so handsome and shined like the prince he is
The very end there was a slideshow of Emily
First picture  I shedded a tear while he sat there amongst his friends sitting ever 
so quiet
When it was finished the lights came on
There he was coming to me all teary eyed
All I could do was hold him so tight and share his pain
I kneeled over and held him like there was no-one around us
It was a moment that continued even in the car ride home
This is a time in my life I could finally see he really knew what it felt like to taste 
the bitterness of a loss
He's six years old tommorow and as he got out of the car
He held his hands in the air with such hatred 
Begging her to come back
Tell me how do I explain this to him
Repeatedly saying "I miss you"
I love you so much
Why Emily
Pretty pretty please
To hear those words and see his actions of anger
Is so painful
I did what a mother would do
I stood there with him let him vent
I held him and rubbed his back
We came in the house and I put his pyjamas on
I  tucked him into bed and held him
Cried with him and comforted him
I told him about the goodness she brought in this world and how God must of  
truly needed her
I cried with him till he could'nt cry no more
I was there for him and in the end he turned to me and said "I really love you"
Sang him a song and hummed until he fell asleep
It's time like these you the importance of loving a child to no extent
God bless him and Emily's family for having the strength to carry on when they 
were at their weakest
