Mothers Time Machine

She lays you down in bed
As you start to fall asleep
She stares at your face
While you start to dream
She rubs your head
In the motion of a stream,
As you finally dose
She looks at your eyes
You are now on an adventure
Searching in the skies.
The woman I speak of
Is also called mom
She makes sure you are happy
From dusk until dawn
She never gets mad
Over a mess of your toys
She doesn’t overact
When you make a lot of noise
The clock spins around
As time passes by
This young baby girl
Is now in Junior High,
More independent she stands
At this time in her life
She is starting to figure out
What’s wrong and what’s right
Although this is true
Her mother is still there
To comfort her in need
And stroke at her hair
The clock jumps again
To when the girl is eighteen
By this time in life
It is the world she has seen
Starting to pay bills
And live a bit free
Her mom is still there
Standing a bit back
But showing she still cares,
A few months pass
While the girl must engage
Not meaning a wedding
But walking a stage
This young adult
Is going to finish cool
As she grabs her diploma
And graduates high school
She feels so happy
To hold it in her hand
But way deep inside
This girl cannot hide
She know she would not be here
Without her mom by her side
She runs up to hug her
While down fall the tears
The clock has now skipped
A few more years
This girl is now twenty
Almost twenty-one
By the time her mom reads this
School will be done
The girls name is Brandi
I’m not talking about wine
The great name above
Is actually mine
My mom is my power
She keeps my head strong
She backs me up
Even when I’m in the wrong
Her name is Cindy
But I call her mom
This poem is for her
Because she is the bomb

Truly the Best

A raindrop on the ground,
The air is pushing through,
I don't know what I did
To get a mother like you,
I never went without supper,
Or clothes on my back, 
My momma is one
Who doesn't know how to relax,
There was never a mess 
In our lovely dome,
It was cleaned from top to bottom 
Before us kids got home,
She even went to college
While still caring for us kids,
It is a wonder to this day
How she ever closed her eyelids,
As problems would occur 
She never gave up hope,
Loving us three kids
Is how she would cope,
Though there are times 
That I start up a fight,
She is the main reason 
My life is going right,
So now I take this moment 
To give thanks to my mom,
Not only for giving birth to me
But for raising me to be strong!

Words of Hatred

As the waves come on shore
The eyes began to open,
Realizing each day that passes 
Not all words are meant to be spoken,
Words of hatred can affect the hearts
Like calling someone stupid 
Is how the pain starts,
When the feelings are built up inside you
Just waiting to come out,
That's when you say many things 
You have never attempted to shout,
But never wish another's death 
As I sadly once did,
I told this to my younger brother 
Who was acting like a kid,
He was only seventeen 
But I didn't care,
I wanted him to grow up
Even if I wasn't quite there,
I have regretted those words 
Each day of my life,
All because I was mad 
And started a big fight,
As each day passes
I dream of forgiveness,
Because I now have come to realize 
It was never any of my business,
But as I said before
Show love and affection
To each person you adore,
Show them that you love them 
And hold back the mean words,
Because once they are out there 
You can't hit reverse.

Dark Lover

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Candy is sweet 
And so are you 
You make my day
In your handsomeish way 
You sing a song 
And i sing along
because your voice
Fills me with pride
But I was not always on your side 
I used to think your love was dark 
Because of your hair and your many marks
I looked at you as the out side in
But your love came from within
Your hair was dark but you had light 
Your true self came into sight 
I know you have a lot of scars 
That were self inflicted for many years,
But once you told me the back story
My heart filled with tears,
No one should have to go through 
Those tragedies and pain,
No child should witness
Death by a train
I shouldn't have judged you
Before I even knew
Your heart was filled with love 
And together we flew!

Fading Black Walls

To be a great kid could light up my day
 but to live in black walls takes that away
i sit there and stare
as i cry a long tear
 for in my black walls
 my beating heart just falls
 if the wall had some light 
and it wasn't so tight
than my black walls would leave out of sight
my tears go away 
as here comes a ray
shining on my face
than my heart starts to race
i think of the joy for which i may see
i think of joy that will change inside me 
a black wall can sometimes mean alot 
but i didn't have to sit there and rot 
i always had light in my mind
and i was just a little bit blind
for my family was there 
and i didn't even care 
i wanted to attracked them all
but for that same reason i lived in BLACK WALLS
