Thinking of you
Woke up in the middle of the night
Almost thought I lost my life
and somehow you were there
On March 8th you’ll make a year
and maybe that’s why you appeared
but you saved me and you held me tight
Woke up this morning and still
The thought of you near made it so real
I just want to say how much I truly miss our Sundays
You’d always wait for us with dinner on the table
Always made sure we were comfortable and fed
Never ever asked for anything
Just to come see you every now and then
I still remember how you asked for me on one of your last days
That same day I couldn’t make it
That still aches me
and when I came the next day
How softly you looked at me
once you heard my voice
As tears made their way down my face
Oh how I miss you
and damn me for taking those times for granted
I miss you mama and I just want to say
Though I always stay in denial
In order to not feel reality
I’ll always hold you close to my heart
and buried in my thoughts
& I know you’ll always be with me
No matter how far away
I’ll do what it takes to see you
On your one year
since you passed away
Rest in Paradise my Queen
I Am More
To you I’m the shy
angel
who broke her wings
and is learning
once again
how to fly.
To you I’m the innocent
little girl
who runs for cover
under her
white sheets
when terrors
plague the night.
To you I am a bunny rabbit
bouncing
along
without a clue
that there is a wolf chasing me.
To you
all I wear are smiles
and all I do
is dance
into the arms of men.
But I am not
broken
I am not
little
I am not
naive.
I am an angel
Soaring to my dreams
past the monsters
that desperately attempt to drag me down.
I am a beautiful rabbit
racing past those
who want to tear me apart.
I am a powerful woman
who cries sometimes,
but I
will never
falter.
I am
more.
Don’t ever assume
I am less.
