Strong
What is it about her you despise
Is it her rare beauty she can’t disguise
The storms sent her way only made her strong
They knocked her down, but not for long
She gets up never accepting defeat
She may seem to sometimes retreat
Only to regain her strength from within
Her peace and gentleness will always win
Don’t take that for her being weak
She isn’t built for the minds of the meek
Tiny one
Tiny bare feet on the grass
The simplest things make you smile
Hugs and sticky wet kisses
Soft baby hair
Being in my arms while you sleep
You’re laugh is contagious
Kisses heal your boo boos
Your tiny hand in mine
Eyes bright with every new sight
Days are long but years are short
You grow so fast
The light
The darkness she had let fester in her body
She knew it was time to release the toll
Of the damage it had done to her soul
The darkness has grown comfortable hear
But the truth of the light started to shine
Slowly and steadily fighting off the darkness inside
Bit by bit piece by piece
The darkness gave away to the powerful light
She was awakening to the truth of her soul
True love
Soft skin with a heavenly scent
Wanting to keep her safe
From the cruel world
Her smile lights up my world
Memories of this baby girl
So bitter sweet
No longer a baby to be held
She’s practically a woman now
So proud of the lady she’s becoming
The first baby to grow inside my body and heart
She taught me unconditional love
A part of me she will always be
She
She smiles as she talks with him
She lets him think she’s fooled
She listens and watches
She hears his words and smiles
She’s been fooled by words before
She’s watching now
Shes waiting for actions to match the words
She’s been a fool many of times
She no longer believes in just words
She’s learned to keep waiting
She will wait for the one who sets her soul on dies
She wait for the one whose words match his actions
A moment
The way he held her Seemed familiar
The peaceful feeling that surrounded them
The chaos of the outside world no longer existed
In this moment they belonged together
They knew they would part ways
Love is a fickle thing sometimes
You have to let go
Even if your heart doesn’t want to
The Timing isn’t always right
Holding on to what God has decided is yours
Will always be yours
Her path
She needed a change
Tired of living a life without purpose
She took that first step
A path unknown
The path along her journey
Leading to life’s most desirable destination
She walked it uncertain at first
Many times the path seemed to lead no where
Steps that seemed to take her backwards
Some steps were easier and lighter
Some steps were harder and heavier
Some times she thought of just giving up
But she knew she needed to follow this path
This journey she’s needed for so long
The only way back to herself was to continue
This path this journey hers alone to walk
