Cariño

I still remember your face in the falling light.

Forbidden nights to extinguish our pain.

Or maybe my pain, you made your plight

That night we danced in the falling rain

Or in your room to hushed songs, feeling right

when it's wrong and happy when it's shame.

I won't hear you say my name like you had

When you whispered in my ear of love to loss,

And the one we’d lose in playing this game

And I cried real, broken tears of tainted joy,

In anguish to losing you to reality again.

Cursed to suffer without you in my life

And the joy of having seen your eyes in the failing light.

I still remember.

Gratitude

I hear my kids laugh and I think of their past when they first said "dad" and all the times they were sad and, my God, I swell with desire to see them grow old. I hear the stories told from those before me and thank God they were bold enough to help me create the life that I hold. I, simply, see the next sunrise and thank God I'm alive and can, maybe, strive for this idea of acceptance to his eyes. I rejoice in each day created by the Lord, I lived to see it rise. Gratitude will keep my thoughts on a high rise and my hope will be my guide

I need

I need to find me to see what's behind me, I need to see myself before I see the what's coming, I need to know who I was before I see who I can be, I need to know where I started before I see to where I'm running, Another year has passed and now I'm to celebrate my birth, First, I need to see what's transpired since I came to this earth, What I see gone disappoints me to a great extent, What I see in store scares me to the core of my being and self, The people I've lost, the things I've done, people that came and went, All in the past now, I've barely made it to stack another year on the shelf, Lord, help me be a better me and help me do the things I need to, So I can celebrate in clear conscience next year, if you haven't taken me to meet you.

Proclaim

The thought of you excites me, Breaking my thought trains, The happiness you give me Tugs and pulls at my heart strings. I love you More than I thought could be Or at the very least More than I thought could come from me. You are my everything, My all, my lifespring, My beginning and my ending, With every fiber of my being, I love you. If I were to lose you for any reason, Or fault of my own, or just the season, The mark you left when you eased in, The love and morality in to my reason Will stay with me for the rest of my life During pain or happiness it will be my light, My guide to who I should and want to fight To be.   If I lose you and you lose me.   I will love you forever, eternally.
