Once Upon A Lifetime
Once upon a lifetime -
As though not my own -
Thinking blindly -
As if time stands still -
Viewing the past -
Almost seems surreal -
Was it ever what i thought?

Captured In A Dream
Almost as though captured in a dream,
When do i awake from this journey?
Unforgettable moments that pick me up,
and make me feel as though floating
in the most perfect space in time.
If i keep my eyes closed can i stay here forever?
Comfort, warmth, closeness, security,
and absolute total happiness!
Will this journey be just another experience lost,
only in memory?

A Four Letter Word
A FOUR LETTER WORD
JULY 29th Thursday 2010
LOVE - What an over rated word.
LOVE - Complete incorrect meaning worldwide.
LOVE - Does not contain beautiful emotion.
LOVE - Contains pain-hurt-sadness-grief.
LOVE - Why are we all so misconceived.
LOVE - A lie to the human race.
LOVE - The karma we pay for wanting to control own and possess another.
LOVE - Who needs it? ?

For My Son on Valentine's Day
To the love of my life on Valentine’s Day
My boy I do not need today to tell you I love you
I absolutely adore you and every little thing about you
I love your gorgeous face, your happy cheeky smile,
And the endless thoughts that I see within your mind
When I look beyond the ever changing color of your eyes
I cherish the friendship we have built over the years
The closeness we share is something so very special
We were meant to share this lifetime together Noah
The connection we have is a rare and priceless gift.
There is not a minute in my day you are not in my thoughts
There is not a thing in this world that could or will ever
Change the depth of love that I feel within my heart and
My soul for you – you are my wish come true.
Noah my precious one and only child you are my world
The love I give to you is endless.
Love Mum xxx

I Was a Child
I was a child - only 13
I was looking to be loved
What I found was the devil
I wasn’t to know love shouldn’t
Hurt with so much intense pain
I wasn’t to know the difference
Between passion and possession
He taught me every lesson I needed
He gave me validation of my worth
Unworthy he assured me with certainty
He told me I am now his to keep
He stole years of what was my life
His idea of play included pain
I felt his games over and over
Until I learned to no longer feel
He captured my soul and tormented it
Until he destroyed what remained
