Darkest Fear

Standing alone
in this empty place
I wish I could change
the blank look on
your face.

Letting you go 
is harder then it seems
Easier said then done
everyone says to me.

Breathing deep as I
start to walk away
Hopeing you will see
what this has done to me.

I'll remember your voice
If you remember this clear
leaving you here is my darkest fear.

Who Am I?

Who am I?
 a liar
 a cheater
 a fake

Who am I? 
 different
 alone and  afraid

 Who am I?
 empty 
 cold and dead

Where am I going?
Depends on where I lay my bed

Who am I?
loved 
kind and  always there.


Who am I?
weak
depressed
scared

I really don't know  who i am inside sometimes I just think I'm a waste of time.
If your willing to take the time to find  
 Then just answer this one  question
Who am I?

Daddy

Cant believe your not here

Lost inside

Trying to  erase  the fear

I didn't  get to say goodbye

 

It wasn't that long  ago

That i had you in my arms

 Hugging you  to let you know

That  I needed you more

 

I breathe  a little  deeper

trying to hold  back all the tears

Remembering the times

You  was always here

 

The days and years

Months and weeks

Went  by  so fast

I couldn't  even  think

 

Memories  of you

Wonder through my head

Times where you would "Baby" me

Daddy's little  girl is what you  said

 

I couldn't deny it

How  true that is

Not trying to believe

That your not here

I know this  won't  be easy

Apart of my heart is  missing

 

As  tears  roll down my   face

Thinking  about you

I hold  tight to  the good times

and  let the bad  ones slip through

 

There  will be times I'll stare in space

Wondering how things would  be

If  you didn't leave this place

 

The  times you  would sing to  me

 The  times you  would cry

The   times where you'd smile

I'll  never  let that slip by

 

You'll always  be in my  heart

 No matter what i do

I didn't  think I'd  have to picture

 My life without you

 

All the birthdays  cards i  made you

Ill hold  close and dear

Just remember

In my life you'll always  be here

 

I'll  remember the mornings

I'd  wake up and see your  face

I didn't think I'd  ever  have to say

Goodbye this way

 

Daddy's little  girl is what I'll always be

 I'll never forget you

Please remember  me.

 

 I love you Daddy

Love (Pt.1)

Love is not  the way its supposed to be its pretty as a flower, yet stings like a bee

When your all alone  your heart is in a ball when you find out your love doesn't 
love you at all

It is interesting how love works interesting how it breaths 

While all the  hurting goes on love never seems to leave

 When we feel lost we  leave love alone it knocks on our hearts until we let it grow.
 
Remember what this poem is
Remember what it means

 Love is pretty as a flower, yet stings like a bee

Blank Paper

All my feelings on this piece of paper
Trying to put it all together
Like a missing puzzle piece
Falling way out of my reach
Tons of glass shattering to the ground
Cutting me as I bleed all out
Thought I had it all together
Now I know what really mattered
I breathe in too deep
Taking one look at this piece
Noticing there's no writing at all
The paper is still blank and I'm crawling

The Good-Bye

Tear filled eyes
the last kiss
this is the last hug
to let you know 
you will be missed.


The last look in your eyes
thinking about
what was just said
our last I love you 
buried in my head.

Laying on my bed 
wishing it was a dream
I close my eyes, and
I fast open just  to see
if you would be next to me.

I know I have to stay strong
I believe we can make it  through
I only wish I knew if you
are  thinking about me too.

Looking at the same night sky
staring at the same  full moon
I pray to God that you will return home safe
to me and to the love  we always knew.

The Stranger

I feel alone tonight 
I cant sleep and its dark
outside.
I'm sitting here in my
quiet room remembering
everything about you.

I remember on lonley nights like this 
you'd be  bugging me knocking
on  my door as i pretend to not 
make a sound.

I would push you away when
I should have  held you close
and letting you know you annoying me
is what  I  love   about you most.

There would be some days we'd watch movies
together.
Everything would be fine then we there would
was days where we would be mad at each other
and we  would  both cry.

There would be days we  would spend away
but hang out at least one  time that  day.

I'm sorry I would  push you away when you  hugged
me tight
 I'm sorry I murmured I love you  after our  goodbyes.
I'm sorry I was never there like you needed me to be.
 Most of all I'm sorry  to the stranger I never knew.

To My Husband With Love

You've given me about everything I've ever asked for
Thats why I want to tell you dear each day I love you more.

If I could turn back the hands of time theres one thing I would erase
and that would be all the worry lines I've put upon your sweet face.

You've been my friend through all these years
the only true one I've had.

You've been there by my side to comfort 
me when things were going bad.

And rho life's not been easy it never was meant to be
I wanted you to know sweetheart your everything to me.

I've almost lost you many times,but God has pulled us through
hes given us another chance to live our  life all new.

Theres just one thing in this whole world
I'd really love to do. and that one thing to me
sweetheart is to live my life with you.

your wife
with love
"Teeny"


( this was written to my grandpa... we never discovered this poem  until the day 
she passed away. It fell from a  photograph of her and my sister... ( the picture 
was tooken when my sister was little). We framed it and  had it placed in the 
living room.... January 2nd  2008 my house caught fire  and we practically lost 
everything  especially  this only  poem written to grandpa by his wife ( grandma). 
Lucky before the fire one year  in 2006  I had the chance to  write it down  and  
place among my   poems... When I  read this poem I  grew the   ability to write my 
own... like I have a  piece of my grandma in me. and I just want to tell her I miss 
her and  love her  "R.I.P. grandma Evans aka Teeny  9/11/1934- 9/8/1999")

Dreams

I wondered in a field of loneliness and pain
I followed the path that led me insane.

 I fell down and bled, cried all my tears
I've been used and hurt all of these years.

I can't find a way out, no matter how hard I try
I can't find the right love I'm so lost inside.

I've had my share of arguments, I've lost all my fights
That doesn't make me weaker it makes me stronger
inside.

You may take pleasure out of causing me this pain
just take this in  and remember what I am going to say

I've chased my butterflies
I've got stung by bees
the field  with flowers I see are all dead
you may sit and torment me,my soul, my heart, my cries
but I'm not getting weaker, I'm getting stronger inside.

One day I will break free  from what is holding me back
 I'm not being  pushed away, I'm pulling you  down.

Just remember  what I told you I wonder how you breath
I wonder how you sleep at night... Do you see me in your Dreams?

Feelings Pt.5

I know your breathing
I know your bleeding
pain inside
kills the time.

I cant stand it here
lost in my fear
let me go
I want to know

Why do you not notice
the look on my face?
the tears in my eyes?
the empty space?

Breaking my soul
telling me to go
wanting to show
how hard is it to
actually be this way.

Im  letting you be
forget about me
