Timeka Chaney Poem
I see my gleaming reflection in your smile
Your eyes tell a story of a man in search
In search for what is real
In search of trust, loyalty and honesty
In search of what you are destined to become
I hope that in your search you see me
I hope that you see my life story without words
If you see and don’t understand I will bring clarity
You are a dim light with the determination to shine ever so brightly
You are an amazing, intelligent and perfectly sculptured creation
An optimist of all circumstance
You are a teacher
A caretaker of life
A philosopher
It is by your lead
By your example
That I learn
Patience
Confidence
Inner beauty
Knowledge to get me through daily
Wisdom to carry with me through life
I see your focus
I see your struggle
I see you
I accept you for who you are and who you are not
I accept your reasoning
I thank you for taking time out for me
Taking time to repair a woman who has been left in shambles
Thank you for listening, advising and giving direction
Most of all I thank for being available and giving clarity in the midst of confusion
It is because of you I open my eyes and see things for more than just my way
My ears are open to heed indirect and direct warning
You have caused tears to cease
You have brought restful nights of pure bliss
For all your greatness I am blessed and appreciate it more than words can say
Your glorious being touches me
Your mind is like an illuminating piece of art never duplicated
Finally I want to thank you for touching, giving and gracing my life
For you have open doors of endless possibility and my dreams have just come
true

Timeka Chaney Poem
All it took was one dose an I was hooked
As the feeling raced through my body
I became numb, fierce and fearless
Within moments those feelings changed
and turned into tears and regret
What have I done
There is no turning back now
What have I done
What is happening to me
This is not who I am
This is not me at all
I don’t like the person I have just become
I vow to never let this happen again
I simply can not fight my addiction
All it took was one dose and now I can live
can’t live without it
The feeling that flows through my veins
through my body helps me to cope
Do you know what I feel
Will you understand my addiction
Do you know how to help someone in need
Someone with my problem
Someone addicted to pain

Timeka Chaney Poem
It was a day filled with laughter
Peace
Smiles
Ice cream
My favorite
Cake batter flavor with brownies and caramel
To die for
As I ate I felt the gentle spring breeze
Followed by the laughter of the free hearted
Also enjoying the sweet and creamy treat in their hands
Enjoying the day as if there will never be another
Which inspired me to take a drive
It felt good to have no plans
To not have a set destination or a certain time to be any where
Windows down, sunglasses on and music flowing
This is my kind of day
My day
Driving in thought, pure enjoyment
Appreciating every breathe, this sunny day and most of all LIFE

Timeka Chaney Poem
Why should I love you
You betrayed my trust
You have taken me to the lowest
You had me chasing an invisible dream
Why should I care
When you shattered the hearts of many
Recklessly
Unlovingly
Carelessly
Willfullly
I throw my hands up
I close my heart
Take my love
Because you have given me
No reason to Care so
Why should I

Timeka Chaney Poem
Life became true to me. For the first time
it has a smell, taste, and touch. The wind blew a graceful stroke of assurance.
Letting me know what was real. I now embrace the uncertainty of myself and my
life. I
see my pain as much more than suffering. I see it as a tool. A tool that has
made a
woman out of me. I no longer allow pain to control me. When in years past all I
could
do was lay down. Lay down and feel sorry for myself. Sit and ponder over how
life had
wronged me. The truth of the matter is that life never wronged me. Life had to
teach
me a lesson. It had to get my attention. Life needed me to see. To see what it
means. What it was really about? Life was about acceptance. I had to see to
accept.
instead of blinding myself of what laid before me. It is pivotal moments like
these
that change you for the better. Pivotal moments bring forth forgiveness of all pain
and
most importantly forgiveness of self. Life taught me to embrace it for better or
worse.
So here I stand through the worse and for the better.

Timeka Chaney Poem
The struggle within
Everyday I fight with self
Everyday I hate something I have or have not done yet
Mad at the mistakes I have made
Yet becoming a woman by my mistakes
Mad at the world
Walking with out guidance
Becoming a lover of what has no true meaning
Learning to please me
Learning to live for what is meaningful to me
Learning to condition my mind and heart to work together
Playing the game of life to win without actually playing
Stepping away from what I despise
Not conforming to imperfect man’s ridiculous rules
Putting priorities in order
My existence is to set the record straight
Love it, like it or leave it
I am the listening ear with no one to listen to me
I am here on my own
Taking my own advice
The realization is that most people have no clue
No clue of what to do with them selves other than work
We work to get by, to buy things that do not matter,
To impress people who hate what is within
We all walk around constantly insecure
Insecure that someone wants something we have
What is that we have?
Nothing
Everything that we have is in our mind, heart and soul
For many including me lose our mind, heart or soul
All for nothing, for something that has no true baring in life
Who will love simplicity?
Who will feel and love what is within?
Who will bring back meaning to the world of lost souls?
Who?

Timeka Chaney Poem
I miss him
Oh do I miss him
There is no one like him
I have not loved anyone since him
I miss everything about him
His laugh
His demeanor
All of him
They way we argued
The way we made up
I miss the way we loved
I miss him
he kept me safe and warm
I miss the way we laughed
The way we cried
I miss him
All of him
I miss disagreeing with him
I miss loving him
Being there for him
I miss him
heart and soul
I miss him
For good or bad
For better or for worse
I miss him
His touch
His warm embrace
His thoughts
Him
I miss him
All of him

Timeka Chaney Poem
I have tried everything I know to find you
To have you in my life again
I can now admit that I made a mistake
I never intended for our love to end
I never intended to hurt you
It pains me to know that I did
I do not want you to make a new life without me
I have never felt as though I needed anyone
I have always taken good care of myself
Figured a way out of all my problems
I can’t fix this
And it is killing me
I wish this was a dream
A warning for me to heed
Every corner that I turn leads me to a dead end
This feeling inside of me is real
I know that you are the one for me
My heart never forgets you nor do I ever want it to
I say a prayer in hope that you will feel what I feel
Please don't let me leave this earth without you returning to me
I just love you
I just do
I will never love anyone the way I love you
I will never feel for anyone the way I feel for you
I have never needed anyone the way I need you
I am afraid to need anyone but me
I hate depending on people for the fear of disappointment
I am willing to let my guards down and be with you
Love you
Laugh with you, cry with you and embrace you
It is this deep an intense feeling inside me that let's me know
That it is real
I am not asking you to rescue me
To just simply love me
For as long as we can be
I know things that I never knew before
Like a relationship is work
If you want it's full worth
I want to work with you
This is urgent
I am losing my sanity
The harder I try to keep it together
The crazier I feel
In essence I guess I am crazy in love
Wishing you to be crazy in love with me

Timeka Chaney Poem
Through your eyes life is always beautiful
I admire that about the both of you
Nothing gets you down for long
Always pleasant
Everything is amazing
You acknowledge what I would consider as insignificant to be Marvelous, amazing and intriguing
I love your watchful and observant eye
Your kind smile
Your constant willingness to forgive
I love your honesty
You call it as is
Our talks about the cares of the day
The lessons of life that you take from me
I adore the never ending laughter we share
This is my small token of appreciation
From a mother to her phenomenal daughters

Timeka Chaney Poem
I just wanted to know your name
And if you saw me about to fall what would you do
I hope it would be what would put a smile upon my face
What do you see when you look at me
I hope you see my life in you eyes
Would I be wrong to think
That you are the answer to my prayers
Do you mind if I gaze into your eyes
To see past the surface without so much as a word
Do you mind if I touch and hold your hand
To feel the what I have been missing
Is it okay for me to rest my head on your shoulder
To feel a sense of relief
Do you know how may tears I have shed
Waiting on you, hoping for your rescue
Do you know that it is nice
To put a face with the mystery man in my dreams
Do you know that it was
A pleasure meeting you
By the way
From this moment on Life is no longer Life but Love
