Author's Note: My mom's fiance (my "stepdad") died on January 14, 2014. I wrote this poem/song on February 7, 2014. It's called "Cherish You"
I hope you like it...I'd love some feedback...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everything you did, you did with love.
Love for people, love for knowledge,
love for the skies above.
And everything you did was not in vain.
You inspired, you created.
Your words were like the rain
because when you spoke, everyone heard you.
The words you said always soaked in.
And when you spoke, you were inspiring,
you gave the world a chance to win.
So I’ll raise a glass to your name
and I&rs
As I was walking into the Funhouse
You decided to Blow Me One Last Kiss
Because I was just too much Trouble for you
So What!!!!
I may not have been Sober when we met
But at least I gave you the feelings of True Love
So Please Don't Leave Me
I am not like any of those Stupid Girls.
Can't you just Give Me A Reason
So we can give it another Try ?
I may
Ode to Courage
Courage
is not fearlessness,
for fearlessness does not exist.
One cannot slay fear,
only conquer it,
only prove to it
who the true warrior is.
You are the warrior.
This perfectly imperfect world
is so full of warriors
who can triumph over
the plague
that is fear,
but who perceive themselves only
as frightened peasants,
as ordinary and trivial people
who possess no power
and no courage.
Fear blinds a person
from what could be
the way winter freezes and kills
the greenery
and replaces it all
with cold white glitter
and sheets of icy mirrors.
This dark winter,
its icy breath scalding the hearts
and minds
of those who pass
throu
Even though we're not together
I'll wait for you
I'll wait forever
Because I love you enough
To let you go
I love you more
Than you even know
And if you're not sure
I'll give you more space
It isn't working
But it could work later
Maybe we just need
To wait 'til we're older
So if you come to me
A few years from now
And ask to be with me
I know somehow
I'll always say yes to you
I'll try to let go
But it will be impossible
For my love to disappear
Because I'll always love you
I'll always want you here
With me again, you know
You're everything I fear
Because you're everything I love
And I'm scared
I love you
Goodbye for now
We'll be friend's

Just Some Of The Things I Love About You
Dear Love,
I love your brown eyes,
The way you laugh and the way you cry,
I love when you smile,
I love how your eyes light up
when you have something funny to say
and how even the sound of your voice
or the sight of your smile
can light up someone's day
These are just some of the many things
that I really love about you
I love how you squeak
when someone pokes you in the side
and how you gasp
when you're surprised
I love your jokes
and your funny stories
even when most others don't
I want you to know that
These are just some of the many things
that I really love about you
I love the feel of your hand in mine
and the way you smile at me
I

We're Done Again (Goodbye)
I feel like I can't breathe
I know that I can't sleep
when I'm thinking about you
Who ever knew
that things would happen this way
Can't we hold on for one more day?
I feel like I can't see
'Cause I know
you're confusing me
when you say you don't love me
you don't love me anymore
this isn't working
This isn't working anymore
I'll always love you
but we've said goodbye before
I don't wanna leave you
but I can't take this anymore
so I'll say the words
that you haven't said...
We're done
again
We'll always be friends
you know that it's true
But I'll always be in love with you
But I gotta let go
Gotta try to move on
Maybe it could work when we'
You told me you love me
I love you more than anything
You told me that we'd be
together until the end
But not now
not now
You say you still love me
I say I'll always love you
You want to be happy,
as happy as you can be
So it's over
it's over
Were we not happy?
Can you please explain?
I love you but I hate you
I'm mad but I'm not mad
Do you understand
I don't understand
We could be happy
We could be happier someday
I promise
We promised
You tell me that you're sorry
I know you're telling the truth
I wonder if you see
how much I miss you
But it's okay
it's okay
I guess that I was a fool
I believed in forever
I keep promising you
that I'll
