Morning brings a light joy,
Amongst the warmest hearts,
The mother wide awake,
Tending her sick child,
She holds him to her bosom,
A clear sign of affection; love.
A tear runs down,
An unforeseen drizzle,
She gets on her knees,
And begins a long prayer.
The son, dazed, but curious,
Overlooks his loving mother.
Oh, how many times we see
The battle of life,
And the mother, like a warrior,
Ready for battle.
A mother's love is ubiquitous,
Unconditional,
Wise,
Everlasting.
Such as God's love.
Could it be that our Creator,
With His almighty hands,
Transmitted such potential
To all women of virtue?
She holds great power,
And she dare not waste it.
Mother, you are brave,
Victorious,
Triumphant,
God could not have created
Love as much as yours,
He created you
With so many purposes
That one cannot easily convey,
I just have to say that through you,
I have met love, patience, knowledge,
and more than anything
The path that is Jesus Christ.
And through Him, I will bow at our Creator.
The first thing I will thank Him for
Is for placing you in my life.
I don't know what tomorrow brings,
But I know that you stand ground,
And will guide me, as you have all these years.
Three words cannot illustrate all I feel,
But it is a start, I love you.

I slept for too long,
Now there’s no words
That will wake me up,
I’m sorry,
If it means, at all.

I tried and climbed,
A landslide
Brought me down.
Motivated by anger,
It all collapsed

Don’t try to correct
Untouchable mistakes,
They heal without aid,
Stand ground,
Don’t try, and correct.

I am swift,
A new pair of legs,
I am new,
Watch me climb faster,
I am air,
Oblivious now,
I’m the road,
Maneuvering on,
I’m the sky,
Bicycle goes on.

Standing alone was never her plan,
So many years had passed her by,
See how her soul slowly deteriorates,
How she slowly leaves her presence.
By tonight, her mother – agonizing,
Her brother and sister – searching.
She is immobile, unaware, hopeless;
To her despair, she slowly lets go.

Come and dine,
Just this once
Where I will see
Your glistening eyes.
Stay with me,
Dine with me,
Enjoy what was
Never promised.
Dine with me,
Under the moonlight.

Someone Else (Original) MyFreeCopyright.com Registered & Protected


Someone else
Filled the spot
I longed to take.
Sorry that I
Failed to sit
And take a risk.
However, I smile
Tomorrow’s another.
