My Poems Of The Heart
"HERE ARE SOME POEMS I HAVE WRITTEN, I AM NOT VERY GOOD, BUT FEEL IT IS IMPORTANT TO LET YOUR FEELINGS OUT,THIS IS MY WAY. HOPE YOU ENJOY.
"
"I WILL, I PROMISE"
"I WILL, I PROMISE" I KEPT HEARING MYSELF SAY.
AS SHE LAY THERE IN HER OWN WORLD,
ONLY ONCE IN AWHILE
COMING BACK TO ME TO HAVE ME SAY,
" I WILL, I PROMISE.
HOW MANY TIMES HAD I SEEN HER SO SICK...
TO MANY TO COUNT I AM AFRAID,
"I WILL, I PROMISE" I KEPT HEARING MYSELF SAY.
OH THE MANY PROMISES I DID MAKE,
IN YOUR LAST DAYS I DID NOT KNOW.
NOW I SIT AND REMEMBER;
OH SO MANY PROMISES I DID MAKE.
"I WILL, I PROMISE" I KEPT HEARING MYSELF SAY.
IN YOUR LAST HOURS, MY PROMISES BECAME
REALITY, AS I HEARD MYSELF SAY
"I WILL I PROMISE". I KEPT THEM ALL...
YOUR PASSING I SAW, YOU WERE AT PEACE...
I LIKE TO THINK IT WAS FOR PROMISES I DID KEEP.
NOW I SIT ALL ALONE...
REMEMBERING THE PROMISE YOU DID MAKE....
ALWAYS TO BE THERE, ALWAYS AROUND.
I'M NEVER ALONE BECAUSE OF THE PROMISE YOU DID MAKE.
"I WILL I PROMISE", I HEARD YOU SAY.

"keep the faith"
"Keep the faith you said as i cryed on your lap;
nothing is going right i said as you smiled down at me.
you tought me to listen with my heart,
you tought me to be patient,
you said keep the faith, you'll not go astray.
keep the faith you said as i cryed on your lap;
i've lost his baby,
nothing is going right i said as you smiled down at me.
you tought me there is a reason for hardships,
you tought me to understand,
you said keep the faith, the pain will go away.
keep the faith you said as i cryed on your lap;
we fought last night,
nothing is going right i said as you smiled down at me.
you tought me it takes two,
you tought me to forgive,
you said keep the faith, this to shall pass.
keep the faith you said as i cryed on your lap;
i've lost my brother,
nothing is going right i said as you smiled down at me.
you tought me to feel,
you tought me to accept,
you said keep the faith, he's still here in your heart.
keep the faith you said as i cryed on your lap;
i dont know how to be a mom,
nothing is going right i said as you smiled down at me.
you tought me to love,
you tought me to care,
you said keep the faith, you can do it.
keep the faith you said as i cryed on your lap;
please dont leave me,
nothing is going right i said as you smiled down at me.
you tought me to live,
you tought me to be,
you tought me who i am.
you said keep the faith, your my girl.
I'll keep the faith I said as i cryed on your lap;
your gone from me,
nothing is going right i said as you layed there so peacfully
you tought me to stand on my own two feet,
you tought me to make my own discisions,
you tought me to accept me for me.
I said I'll keep the faith, I'm your girl.

"
I will be fine, I will be strong. I hear and understand. For I have some wonderful friends that know, they have been there too."
"The tears I shed I shed for me..."
"As I sit alone I shed my tears,
oh the pain, wont shed away,
the tears I shed I shed for me.
As I sit and wonder why,
why so soon your gone from me.
Why your needed there not here,
the tears I shed, I shed for me.
The pain I feel I feel for me,
the tears I shed I shed for me.
As I know your not alone,
I also know your not in pain.
They say my tears, they will go away,
they say my pain will leave me too.
For now the tears I shed, I shed for me.
for I am the one left behind,
I am the one to feel the pain.
but someday, my tears i shed for me:
will turn to joy i feel for me.
the joy i feel i feel for me just knowing you.

" I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY"
"
THE DAY IS WARM, AND SUNNY;
I FEEL THE WARMTH ON MY FACE.
AS I SIT IN OUR GARDEN;
I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.
I PLANTED SOME ROSES TODAY;
YES THE RED ONES THAT YOU LIKE.
I PLANTED SOME LILLIES TOO.
I SMELL THE GARDEN;
IT SMELLS SO SWEET.
I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.
I HEAR THE BIRDS SINGING;
I HEAR THE CHILDREN LAUGHING.
ITS SOUNDS LIKE MUSIC,
THE MUSIC YOU LOVED TO HEAR.
I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.
I SEE THE COLORS AROUND ME;
I SEE THE BLUE SKY,
I SEE THE GREEN GRASS,
AND THE RED RED ROSES.
THE COLORS YOU ADORED.
I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.
I CAN TASTE THE SUN,
AND WARMTH IN THE FRUIT;
I CAN TASTE THE MIST IN THE AIR.
THE TASTE OF SPRING IS HERE.
I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.
I NEVER WILL FORGET THE WAY YOU LIVED,
OR THE WAY YOU LOVED IN THIS LIFE.
I NEVER WILL FORGET THE LESSONS YOU TOUGHT,
OR THE WAY YOU LOVED WITH SUCH AN OPEN HEART.
I HAVE A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.
SPRING IS HERE AND I HAVE
A PEACEFULL HEART TODAY.

There's an angel sitting next to you,
close your eyes,
can you feel him, can you hear him?
he is whispering to you, i am here,
whispering i love you.
theres an angel sitting next to you he wants you to feel him.
close your eyes, he is holding you, he is huging you, can you feel him? theres an angel sitting next to you

Poem for Judy and loved ones in groww

GROWW FROM THE HEART
as we sit in the wee hours of the night, and into the early hours of morning;
we are reminded of our love for those that have gone on before us.
we share not much in our lives, we are all busy with our own choices.
we come from differant worlds we all have differant dreams,
but this i can say we all share GROWW...
we have lost our loves we have lost our babes,
we have lost our brothers or sisters our moms or our dads,
some have lost their best friends they cherished in life;
this i can say we all share GROWW
as we sit in the wee hours of the night and into the early hours of morning
we speak in a room cant hear your voice, cant see your face,
cant even feel your touch that we long to feel .
we share our feelings, our joys, and fears;
we laugh, and cry, we love and we live,
we came into this room having such pain so much loss;
no ending to the emotions that are swallowing us up , devouring our lives,
killing our spirit, killing our desires, robing us of family and friends that run,
for unless they have loved and lost as we ,
there is no understanding , only confusion and fear,
for in this room we can heal the pain that has brought us to this point in our lives
as we sit in the wee hours of the night, and into the early hours of morning
we share and begin to GROWW from the heart.......,
for in this room we have all felt the pain we have all loved and lost.

"The Seasons of Love........
*****************
Our heart has 4 rooms
as the seasons have 4 changes.
we store our love in all 4 rooms,
with hopes that nothing but love will fill the space.
I love you with all my heart takes new meaning,
untill our love turns to pain, from grief felt deep within.
life will change, as the seasons change
from hot to cold and warm again.
our sunshine love turns to gray cold clouds.
our heart is full with puddles of tears,
as the ground is during the april showers.
Time may dry our wet full heart,
and love again will shine within.

************
hello my child, i am here though you see someone else.
i can feel your touch as you caress my hand and wipe my brow.
i can not speak well now, i cant keep my thoughts straight,
my control has gone and i cant tell you anymore that i love you though i do
i hear you speak to me, i hear you say i am not me.
yes my child i am here deep inside, but cant get out. i have my love and memories although they cant come out right now, they are deep beneath,
under the disease, under the pain, and sorrow i feel, always remember i love you . no matter my words today or my actions of yesterday, i am still me, and love you deeply.
