Derrick Smith Poem
I visit you at night in my dreams
from the way we were to the way we are now
never wanting to let any of it go
but it is what it is
My thoughts continue to have you there
knowing how it was will never be
doesn't stop the wanting of you
but it is what it is
I deal with the treatment that you give
saying little along the way
leaving you to your own ideas
but it is what it is
You have no concerns as to how I feel
yet benefit from those feelings
still I continue to be who I am
but it is what it is
I know you see me, what I hold
but I am not as important to you
inspite of the purpose that I serve
but it is what it is
You call upon me and I answer
no matter what the reason or time
you close you eyes to my life
as I now close my eyes to yours.
This is what it is

Derrick Smith Poem
This is no dream,this is no fantasy
Come here my beautiful one and stand by me
I'll always love you and do my best
then let God take over,he'll do the rest
So beautiful as I watch you
stroll gracefully down the Isle
The thought of us together
oh I can't help but smile
Anxiously waiting the moment
when you become my wife
to cherish you for always
for the rest of my life.
This is no dream,this is no fantasy
Come here my beautiful one and stand by me
For I've known since the beginning of our time
that you were the one that he had in mind
Today I am so happy
for what god has given to me
to have and to hold to honor and obey
for all eternity
This is no dream,this is no fantasy
come here my beautiful one and stand by me
I'll always love you and do my best
then let God take over,he'll do the rest
This is no dream,this is no fantasy
come here my beautiful one and stand by me
For I've known since the beginning of our time
that you were the one that he had in mind

Derrick Smith Poem
NEVER ALONE
By Derrick Smith
Do not shed your tears for me
Because God has called me home
But keep in mind the memories
And the fact you’re not alone
Keep your tears for joyful things
The thought of all that we have done
And know that I no longer suffer
That I am with the one
The one who keeps you thru the day
And watches over you thru the night
The one who helped me make it through
And fought my biggest fight
My spirit lives within all of you
That God saw fit to call me home
I’ve done all that I could do
Know that although I am gone
But do not shed your tears for me
Because with God I am now home
But keep in mind all the memories
And you will never be alone.
I Am With God Now.

Derrick Smith Poem
Stand tall,run free
isn't this the way that loves suppose to be
Stand tall,run free
what we've got is something special,between you and me.
I can promise you everything
the likes you never known
I can promise you everyday
you'll see how love has grown
I can promise you in all this
there will be some reward
I can promise you only things
that I can afford
Stand tall, run free
isn't this the way that love's suppose to be
Stand tall,run free
what we've got is something special between you and me.
I can promise you comfort
for when things get so sad
I can promise all my support
whenever things go bad
I can promise you understanding
at any given hour
I can promise you all the joys
that I have within my power
Stand tall,run free
isn't this the way that loves supposed to be
Stand tall,run free
what we've got is something special between you and me.
to be continued.

Derrick Smith Poem
It is the spirit of you that I enjoy
the pleasantness of that I look forward to seeing
I don't know the story of you
I do know the truth about mines
Talk to me,see how far we can go
A minute can mean , something if the choice is yours
Tomorrow's not ours to claim, this moment is all we have
There's an opportunity ,missing out on what life offers
.
Advantage is for everyone
Take a moment, reflect and think
the conclusion is yours in the end.
I can lift your spirits, lift your head , my job
I can elevate you, motivate you,
Stand ,trying in your corner
put your feet on my shoulders so you can reach
It's the spirit of you I enjoy

Derrick Smith Poem
Hey what happened,
I started this journey from no where or perhaps the stars.
There you were
We shared so much for strangers,
didn't realize that two people could have so much in common,
always felt misunderstood
until I met you.
We talked on the phone for hours
just like the kids we've raised,simply because,no special reason
other than well,it's natural.
I enjoy you and the time we spend
I don't know you yet I feel I do.
I look forward eagerly to see what tomorrow will bring.
Now I ask myself how this can be,
or is this perhaps what I deserve.
Not quite sure how I should feel,I mean is it to soon.
I think about you as though you were mine.
My head calls you baby but my voice out of respect,will not.
The fear of offending you stands high,will that be alright or should I wait.
I know that I enjoy you and time will tell which way to go.
I will be the man I am and and hope for you that would be enough.
I'll let god and nature take it's course and just be thankful for you.
HMMM

Derrick Smith Poem
For the many days and nights of pain
For all the tears that fell like rain
For the thought that I'd never love again,
I Thank You
For the love I gave with all my heart
For the pain you gave like sharpened darts
For the thought that we would never part
I Thank You
For all the sad and lonely days
For the depression, the hurt and the reckless ways
for the high price of loving you I paid
I Thank You
For all the days I wanted to die
For the life we had that was a lie
For all the times I wondered why
I Thank You
For all the reasons I gladly claim
For all the problems, I took the blame
For all the solutions which I took aim
I Thank You
For every hurt and every pain
For all the pillows and sheets I've stained
For the one I've found and the love I now claim
I Thank You

Derrick Smith Poem
You were found from the past
an unforgettable moment in time
seen in an atmosphere of tears
and still you were a reason to smile
Flooded with memories,joyful yet special
covered with the love that hid deep within, surprise
wrapped like a cocoon with the spirit of you
overwhelmed with the feeling that we belonged
Unable to control the thought of you
the desire that's always burned inside
not rekindled but reborn
the love of my life unforgotten
Poor timing I guess one could say
shoot me down, I'll understand
pull me closer if you feel this
but I have not outgrown you
Always deep in my heart and mind
for there so long you have been well kept
untouched by time or the trials of life
you were my first true...
You should know

Derrick Smith Poem
It is the pleasure of being next to you
The idea that you are somehow still a part of my life
It is the fact that although everything that we've been thru
hasn't done as much damage as I thought it had.
You are still the part of my world that I imagined
Still the part of my world that is and will always be important to me
Inspite of all that was, I am grateful for what is
For it is my pleasure
You are the future I never thought I'd have
You represent the past that I'd lost so long ago
I have found the peace in the acceptance of what is
and been blessed by the peace that has remained
I gave up on the idea of what was once us
I thought that I'd lost any and all that may have been
But in our friendship I have found that love still remains
And for me that is special simply because of one thing,
It's my pleasure .

Derrick Smith Poem
I see that you've returned to me
though I fought so hard to be rid of you
from the bottom of where hope didn't exist
to this point where you now live
You've made it so I can't explain
nobody seems to know you or the signs of you
there are no words that help define
the changes that you cause for me
They see me sleep beyond whats normal
they've seen me drink without concern
asking me what's wrong with you
but I can't tell them for I do not know
You are not my friend but I know you well
we've both been down this road before
you didn't win then and you will not now
I thought that you were done with me
The darkness you brought you bring again
and I promise to fight you once more
I have the tools and the medicines that I need
to combat the things you do to me
I know your here, I know your back
but you will soon be gone again
I pray for strength when your around
God knows that you don't belong here
I will be free from your powerful grip
for I know your name and I will fight
I will fight,I will win,I will be free
Free from you.... DEPRESSION
