My Puppies

My puppies are so sweet 

I love their trusting eyes 

I love their loving hearts

I love their tender faces

I love my little puppies 🐶🐶

Secret Message

For one day only
I will tell you my thoughts
I will write them down for you
Tomorrow they will be erased
What I have to say will all be gone
No trace of these words will ever remain

I would like you to know how much I love you
The pain in my chest when I think of you
The longing to be close to you
The desire of my heart

But it can never be
It will never be
All that will remain
Is a blank page

With no words typed
Or written
No trace of any words
At all

All the Time

I close my eyes and dream of you 

I dream of all that we’ve been through 

And I know I never will and never have

Loved anyone as much as my heart cries out

Every day every hour every minute 

For you

Love

I first 

Felt this feeling at the age of nineteen 

That spine-tingling knee-weakening 

Out of control spinning

Of hearts beating 

Eyes meeting 

Dreamy

Melting 

Comforting 

Love ❤️ 

Forever


Loneliness overpowered me

Like a lion devours its prey 

I wrestled with my soul 

I prayed my days away 

I stumbled with my pain

You never let me fall 

You are my balm, my strength 

You are my life, my all

Answered Prayer


I prayed that you would love me

I prayed for only you 

My prayers in time were answered 

And now our vows stand true!

Oxymoron

I feel sick to my core

When I remember your tender eyes

Your tender hands 

Your kisses 

Your smile 

I feel sick to my core

Remembering places and feelings

Excitement

Pulsing

I cannot even understand 

How you were never mine

How you loved but didn’t

How you ghosted every time 

And even though I wish

I had never laid eyes on you 

I wish more 

That you could have loved me 

I don’t understand 

I cannot understand 

That you didn’t 

How could you have loved me

The way you did so fully

But not loved me?

Free Will

If people were robots 

I could make you 

Love me

I could make you 

Kiss me

Over and 

Over again

But people are not robots

And I cannot make you 

Love me

Or kiss me

Over and

Over again 

I cannot make you 

Greet me

Or smile at me 

Or laugh with me

Or talk to me

You are not a robot and

You have 

Your own

Free will

Please Hurry!

I promised to love
My whole life through

I promised to care
Only ever for you

I promised with all
The love in my heart

That we would never
Be broken apart

And so I wait alone
While you are away

For your quick return
Please hurry, I pray!

Wings of Love

Getting rid of old 

To make room for new

An empty space fills 

An empty heart

An empty life 

An empty voice 

Emptied

To be filled with 

Wings of love
