Smile

A smile that bring life

How to describe this Can one truly imagine Does the heart really know What it is, this Emotion A need to feel A want that beckons A touch that traces A tingle that craves In you what is found Is Love and care A feeling of protection Alpha Male scent in th...

Call me mine if you dare And know I will be Yours Nothing can compare Forever and a day We will reign Supreme above all Let your voice be heard Whispers become thunder We are to be us Only your eyes see me As mine shine upon you Two that know this is true...

You and I

A few verses that bring a smile to my heart

As the light of day warms my skin Your presence enters my thoughts Where you are right now Where have you been? How long must I wait To kiss you again? These lines are short Yet hold true emotion You are Mi Amor The only real notion Here I am Here I will ...

My second baby on the wayPit tar patter my heart wentExpecting, worried, jittery, a glowWarmth in my heart, love in my mindWish for a fairy princess in our livesLand of exotic where I livedConspicuous for worshipping goddessesNotorious for killing daughte...

Blue Moon Summer

A story about overcoming loss, and re-discovering joy.

There wasn't a day that went by where Lily didn't think about the baby. Blonde hair that fell in wisps around her delicate elfin face. The way the sun had lit her from behind so that she appeared as if surrounded by a halo of light. Her smile, pulling at...

In Memory of My Father

A decade since my father died, and I felt a need to remember him in words.

The twenty-ninth of April. Ten years since I last saw my dad. Ten years and two days since I last heard his voice and knew that he heard me when I told him I loved him. I have not been able to tell him that I got a 2:1 in my degree (he died the day before...

Morning Kiss

A Kiss that heals the Soul and mends the Heart

Once I thought that the Sun never again would shine upon my skin. Those warm rays that made me thrive with steady beat. For my days were dark, so cold and sad. The Moon would cradle my tears as they endlessly flowed. Tears that I kept hidden, only the bea...

A Wish Granted by Lady Moon

This is my first attempt, your comments are appreciated

I was walking alone Lady Moon high above Guiding my steps leading the way The Sky was dark Black as tar The only light was her shimmering Love She looked at me with a watchful eye As I sat on the Sand, hands covering my face Distraught and Restless, as I...

Precious Things

For Xuani, Ash, and Hiram Lawrence Jr.

I had her name traced above my heart Cupped my belly, feeling the spark Within, I felt the beat of life, the echo of her cry Her breath a butterfly Brushing the cobwebs from the grave with her wing Oh you precious thing And she, oh she had his name tattoo...

It’s time to stop being cute and coy and simply wish you Christmas joy because the day is rapidly approaching. May you smile at all the lights that brighten up the winter nights and I’ll stop being caustic and reproaching. Reindeer should not swear at elv...

Someone who constantly makes you feel,wanted, needed, appreciated and cherished.Someone who never walks in front of, or behind you, but is always at your side. Someone who fills your mind, with thoughts of yes, I can do this. Someone who inspires you, to...
