It is said that home is where the heart is.

And I agree because when I’m home this little cutie above is apart of my heart.

One of the many reasons I enjoy being home.

To see that smile and those cute little eyes

always makes me smile and warms my heart.

As long as this little guy is in my home or wherever I go.

My heart is always home.

One Peaceful moment!

Closing my eyes I lay back and I letting the sun shine down on me.

And I smile, and I relax

for warmth seeping through me

is enough to make this day

another great day.

Seeing you smile at you me

Made me want to be happy too and so full of life

I‘ll never forget the moment I met you it felt like I found the other half of me

Life seemed so much better, so much more alive like the colors on the flowers seemed so much brighter I

Evened started to enjoy this life of mine,  it was all because you smiled at me that day and now everything is so much lighter in my life.

The little things in life!

Advertisements

I want to get lost in the possibilities of this world.

So I can get out of here an see so much more.

I don’t want to be tied down to anything.

I want to spin around outside and smell the fresh air and stand in the rain and still see the beauty in everything.

I’m not afraid to do what I have to do, but I do hope the outcome will be a good one.

Dear Friend

Advertisements

It is such a lovely day today

minus all the rain outside.

I wanted to say I miss you

and all the times we were goofy together.

I can’t believe we’ve been friends for almost nine years.

There’s been ups and downs but mostly on my part but you stuck around

even when I was so upset you couldn’t truly understand what I was saying.

You are a true friend and only want the best for me and sometimes that’s hard

to accept for I don’t know what I want out of life yet.

But at the end of the day even when we don’t talk I know our friendship will carry on because every time we feel we can’t get through this day.

We wake up the next and everything is such much better.

So I just want to say thank you for being my friend and lets keep blowing the darkness away because all I hear with you is the laugher, the joy of getting to spend another moment with you.

My eyes are wide open!

Advertisements

As I realize I’m being pulled to you.

You have changed and I’m not sure how to handle it.

But as you smile at me and take my hand, I know nothing can break us apart.

Together we will fight through it all even when they try to scream and pull us apart.

Be my song!

Advertisements

When I’m down and can’t seem to move on.

Be the words and feelings that picks me up from this emotional roller coaster.

Bring me back up to my happiness that will outlast everything else.

I need your song to outlast every other song I ever heard.

For that song to play over and over again in my head when I can’t find you or get close enough for the pain to stop.

I need your song to blockout all the other noise and thoughts in my head.

Your melody plays on and on and I smile and I dance to your beat and everything is so amazing.

Nothing has ever felt so good and no matter how much time goes by your song will always be my favorite and it will always be my go to song.

I know by you being my song means you can’t stay but I’ll always treasure the memories of you.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Advertisements

Today is an celebration of everyday love and support.

Shared with written words from the heart.

Hugs that fill you up with the love those words cannot explain or describe.

Tears of joy for maybe you had thought that love no longer existed in your life.

Maybe your alone and so you feel there is no love at all.

But if you look deep inside that love is there and it’s been with you all your life.

So don’t let the things you don’t have in your life bring down what today is all about.

And that is love and love is always in your day even when you feel so down.

There is always someone who loves you when you can’t seem to love yourself.

So embrace that self-love or the one you love and hold on tight for ride of your life isn’t over today.

Because love lives on when all the sweets are gone.

Undefined love

I love to make you laugh, it just puts a smile on my face.

when you laugh it stirs up something inside of me.

I don’t know how it happened but the way I feel is not the same.

My feelings have grown and I think I have fallen for you.

Just another snow day!

Advertisements

My heart is beating so fast and I feel so alive as I stand in the snow and spin in circles.

With no care in the world, for this little bit of peace as the world fades and I become one with the cold.

My problems no longer matter as the snow turns me into a brand new me.

Why won’t you come out and experience this moment with me, I know it’s cold but the warmth flowing through me is enough for us both.

You smile but stay inside for you enjoy seeing me being carefree and then you snap the picture and I’m forever saved in your mind that day.

You still look at that picture now as I’ve become someone you used to know.

Like the snow I too was clear but now I’m so hard to see behind all the layers of dirt.

Covering up who I used to be before everyone walked over me or pushed me to the side for I was in their way.

My Guardian Angel!

Advertisements

Today I walk on the unknown path

And there I met you and I asked you to stay.

Soon we were walking the unknown path together and you had my back and I had yours.

Together we got through the tough times.

But, then the tough times began  to drag me away and you tried with all your might to get me back.

Those unknown moments were strong and fast and with a blink of an eye I was gone.

Lost from you forever and as time went by you never lost hope.

You knew I’d be back and this time you wouldn’t let me go.

No matter what happens when you save me.

You know together we can conquer it all and so you fight my darkness and you save me.

Because of you I not only found myself but I saw you for who you truly were.

My guardian angel, my light and you have always been by my side.

I just was too blind to see, I was never alone and I needed to trust you.

So I could be saved again and this time not let go when I begin to feel the pull of my darkness.

The truth of me!

Advertisements

I’m the girl with the permanent sad frown on her face.

I walk and the sadness is just there on the outside and inside.

But the truth is I’m not always sad for I have a smile that is so bright you can’t help but smile back.

A sense of humor that makes you laugh and I laugh too and it’s amazing to live in that moment.

When I’m happy it hurts for that smile just won’t quit shining through out my day.

A happy high that lifts me up until I’m on top of the world, looking down.

When I’m happy the word over hyper doesn’t quite explain my over the moon happiness.

To be that happy girl and to live in that moment is not hard but sometimes.

It’s rare to get a glance of that happy girl with that sad frown is forever present.

Hiding the girl I once was and yet still am.

Oh sad girl with that sad frown won’t you smile for me today, tomorrow.

Oh who am I kidding, why don’t you just smile for me forever and ever.

Because I love your smile and when your happy so am I.

yours truly,

sad girl with a permanent frown on my face.

My life line!

Advertisements

My mind and hand are craving you as I am drawn to you, I realize I don’t know what to do.

But I walk up the stairs to get you, hoping something great will come out when I walk back down those stairs and open you up.

To a blank piece of paper and I slowly begin to write down, what’s locked up in my mind.

I need an solution to all that I believe I was meant to be and finally do something about it.

Only time will tell what will become of my words that I pour out of myself everyday, every second, minute, hour, week, month, and year.

Writing to me is just one of the many points of my life line.

It makes me happy and it helps me to get it all out.

Sometimes I can go without it but it will always find a place in my life and will continue to grow.

Poem inspired by :James Bay Concert

Advertisements

 

James Bay dancing with his guitar, lost in the moment.

The beat is thumping through my chest as your words flow all around me.

This moment is amazing as the music blast’s through my body making my heart feel like it’s about to come out and join the beautiful sounds all around.

You open up my eyes to something new and I’m hyped for some more as I become addicted to your sound.

That I crave it until I can hear it all and my ears are content from your beautiful voice ad the songs you sing.

You were there and now your gone  and here he comes hat and all.

The red of your shoes catch my eye as my love for red becomes my only concern in that moment.

Until you open up your mouth and sing into the mic and you let loose of everything inside of  you and it is powerful and soulful that connects with my soul.

I’m memorized by your voice as the night ends with me on a happy high of music melodies as the songs, still play on as I walk away from a night that won’t be forgotten.

Morning

Advertisements

My words are happily jumping

around the page as the morning light shines through my window.

As the peace in my mind flows through my body, the day seems so bright and full of hope.

A warm feeling flows through me as my body turns to a feeling of knowing I’m not alone.

And I start to smile again.
