My heart is full of love
Yet half empty with sadness

Finding balance
Between the hanging moments of time
Measured within the loving minutes of life

Hanging on a moment
Wishing on a Star
Looking back at our future
Knowing we’ve come so far...

I feel the magic
I feel the dream
I feel the electricity
Between you and me
Everything falls into place
When we let things just happen
Being with you makes our
Happily ever after

You dare to dream
You dare to wish
You dare to believe
In your own
Happiness

When the feeling is right
All will gently fall
Into place creating
Happiness

Just take the jump
Close your eyes
Believe in your dreams
That’s where you’ll find
Happiness is everything

Happiness blooms from within
A pinch a love
A dash of joy
Perfection at its finest
For a happy heart

Trying to be happy with someone else happiness
Only knowing that your sadness is brewing because it’s something you have longed to have for years...

The way to be happy is to find the happiness within yourself...

Do what makes you happy
Not what makes others happy
Change your pace
Look fear in the face
New beginnings await

In the end.....




.....I’m happy with my life.....


....And that’s all that matters

Another year coming to an end
A new year is just around the bend
A time to start over
Turn another page
Set life goals
Throw your animosity away
Begin anew
To a better you
Happy New Year to all
May all you wishes come true!

As we lost so many during those events
But gained an angel ourself

There’s a girl who’s full of life
Has a story for anything

The sun is shining, it's a happy day
Don't look back on what happened yesterday
Strive for the best
Be strong and brave
Your smile and happiness could make someone's day

Your happy ending
May be different from mine
But my happy ending
Came at the right time

I found you
You found me
Together we live happily

Just the two of us
You and me
The pair of us
Following our dreams

Happy ending
Is different for all
But who woulda thought
You were the one to catch me when I fall

We may not have a family
But together
I have you
You have me

The best happy ending
I could have never for seen....

Empty chair
Empty wine glass
Emptiness in my heart
Photographs for memories
Broken hearts, missing you
A poem, a writing, a song, a cardinal, a butterfly, a penny, a dream....
All these things remind me of you
A strong and hard working man you were
I have the same traits, as I live for you
I hope I am making you proud in all I do
I talk to you everyday
          Do you even hear me?
In my heart, I know you do!
Even though you are no longer here
Believe me, it’s been a hard almost 6 years
Another day we celebrate YOU
For on this Father’s Day
I send my love to heaven for you
Broken memories will never fade away
I wish I had more time, wish you would have stayed
Unfortunately you were sick and there was nothing left to do
So I told you to close your eyes, relax and just let go
It was he hardest thing I ever had to do
But I am thankful I have many years, so today it’s all about you

An empty chair
An empty wine glass
An emptiness in my heart
Photographs for memories
Broken hearts, missing you...
        
         Happy Father’s Day Papa Bear

BOO!

Happy Halloween!!!!

Ghosts
And
Ghouls
And
Witches
And
Pumpkins
And
Scary
And
Frightening
And
Candy
Oh the candy
Can’t forget about the candy....

BOO!
BOO!
BOO!


Happy Halloween!!!!!!

The haunting truth
A full, blue moon
Unleash the ghosts and ghouls
Wear a mask because you must
Light the candle, remove the dust
The spooky night will soon be upon us

It’s my “Happy Juice”



As I sip on my Green Tea...


It makes me (happy)


It’s the little things....

To the woman who wiped away my tears
Told me to be brave, face my fears
The woman who molded me to who I am today
We celebrate you on this Mother’s Day
No matter how old I get in life
I will always need you...
A simple
Phone call
Hug
Smile
Kiss
Having you as my mother is pure bliss
To the woman who taught me love
I can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done
No words can describe how I feel about you at all
But one thing I know, you have always been there to answer my call
You have filled my heart with joy
Here’s to many, many more!
Happy Mother’s Day Momma
I love you always and forever and to the moon and back...

Another year coming to an end
A new year is just around the bend

Throw your animosity away

Happy New Year to all
May all you wishes come true!

I’m going to sit back and take it all in
What a year for all of us this has been
The highs
The lows
The ups
The downs
But, here we are with two feet on the ground
For this is the last day of this year
I will spend it giving cheer
Even though the times are still rough
We can get through anything if we pray hard enough
For me, today, I will reflect on everything that has helped me grow
2020, wasn’t the greatest, but I’ve learned a lot  
I plan on bettering myself
Give my mind a break
Continue on this journey of life
Grow within my experiences
Exceed my expectations
Learn, learn , learn
I’m not saying goodbye to 2020
But rather say “ Thank You”
Sounds crazy but it has changed me for the better
I look forward to 2021
Welcome in a clean slate for myself
Fresh start and a new beginning with an open mind
Thank you 2020, even though it’s been a rollercoaster ride
2021, please be a better, happier, year... For all

Today is the last day to finish writing your chapter for this year
As midnight approaches we leave behind our
Past
And our
Fears
Charging into the New Year at full blast
Here’s to the next chapter full of blank pages ready to be filled with a new journey at last
Let’s end this time with laughter and cheer
Here’s to 2020
Happy New Year!

We all are afraid
We all fear the worst
We all have doubt
We all are scared

Think happy thoughts
Turn negative into positive
Doubt into success
Fear into happiness
Spreading love
Believe
Wish
Dream

Stay humble
Stay strong
Stay you
As two hearts combined now become the glue
The glue that holds your life together

No matter where life takes you
No matter what life throws at you
Your two hearts are entangled as one
While you confess your love under the bright, shining sun

Don’t be so ******* yourself
The pandemic is already hard enough on us

Words that cannot be expressed are better to get off your chest and maybe someone will be impressed by the inner workings of your heart laid to rest by trying your best of the simple words that are hard to express...

Sometimes it’s hard to put into words
Or fully figure out exactly what to write about:
Today I want to write about something I’ve never felt
Something I most likely will never feel
Something I probably will never become...
I have never been pregnant
I most likely will never become pregnant
I probably will never become a mother
I have never felt you kick in my belly
I will never feel the anxiousness of being pregnant
I will never be able to hold you, love you or care for you
But I feel like I have already...
Is that weird to think or believe?
Am I strange for even writing or thinking about it?
What if at some point I was pregnant but never knew it?
Even though I never will know that feeling
Or experience that feeling of you growing inside of me and loving you the first time our eyes meet
I am writing this to you....
My never for seen child...
I would love you
Care for you
Explore with you
Even if you never have existed
I carry you with me always
I hope you are with me too
I would have been a great mother, and you would have had an amazing father...
Maybe one day in heaven
We’ll get our wish of being parents
But for now, I love with this depression of never knowing you...
                                    Love always,
                      A mother who will never be...

In the shadow of doubt
The doubt of your shadow will always haunt you
Following closely behind you at all times

Listening to the silent whispers of the world around you, only to be drowning in the silence of your own whispering thoughts that haunt you…

Have I ever made you:
Smile
Be happy
Feel good about yourself
Help you grieve
Spread love
Show love
Think about something
Give you guidance
Help you with something


Then my job here is done.

This is why I write. If I at least helped one person with any one of my writes, then I have succeeded in what I do....

Think about that with your next write and maybe you can help someone and possibly change their day or their life....

Thank you to all who have done that for me!

I simply need to know.....


Do you have my back?


I will always have yours...

Have you ever felt like your barley treading water
Or maybe that your body is being consumed by the ground you once stood on
The cocoon that your being wrapped up in is your defense mechanism to fight off your insecurities
Once you emerge like a butterfly does when it's ready
You will spread your wings, show your beautiful and vibrant colors and show the world your transformation into something new
Never doubt the crossroads of life and the fractured walkways you come across
In the end you will become a bigger and better person as you soar to your own destiny
