I would like to thank my husband George for his creative illustrations for my book.
Blank Book
I believe that you can fill the world
around you
with sunshine.
My life doesn’t have to be perfect
to be wonderful.
If you are here
you have life.
Don’t blame me
for what you
have done.
I know it’s only a feeling
but I trust it.
Please don’t be OK with any of that negativity.
I won’t tell you
I will show you
Instead.
She said
I will never beg someone
to be in my life
if I call or text them
or visit them
and I’m still being ignored
then I will walk away
with myself respect.
Sometimes in life‘s
most difficult moments
you will have to become
your own hero.
I never knew how strong I really was
until the day I chose to forgive someone
who wasn’t really sorry.
My love
you can do anything
but not everything.
Just think about this for a moment
every day may not be good
but there’s something good in every day.
Your eyes can play tricks on you
so please don’t trust what you see
even salt looks like sugar.
No one is quite like you
and that my little one
is your superpower.
Making mistakes
is better than
faking perfections.
My waters are deep
But I promise to not drown
You.
Don’t look away from me
Because I am not going
anywhere without you.
My days are filled with you
And your nights are filled with me.
I Believe in Us
Do you believe in us
That we are destined
to go beyond just now,
More than just today
Do you know that
We do not need all the answers
To every question we are faced with
Do you have enough faith in you
to always push forward
No stepping backward
I am learning to take responsibility
and risks that I haven’t in the past
Are you willing to do the same
I don’t know what we will
face in our lives together
but I wanna have you with me
beside me through whatever
Comes our way.
Her love was brittle and fading away
It was in need of some special attention
It was once as strong as a refined manicure
Full of color and neatly structured
It went through many stages to become
Beautiful and admired
Now with no real reason to why it had become ugly
And hurtful
With no attention to detail anymore
Forgotten like a photo in box
Never to be seen again.
That’s how I describe our love now.
I Want More!
Not less
I need more
Not less
Please show me more
Not less
So that I may have more,
More is much better
than less.
I am uncertain of what is going on with my thoughts of today
Too many problems have been occurring
which lead to my insecurities
and they seem to be getting the best of me
I thought that I was stronger than that
I’m uncomfortable and uncontrollable
and I am speaking my mind more than I normally do
However I want to be in charge
and to
Know that I have no bosses
I will make my own assumptions
about my life and how I live it.
John
You are a friend
whom we can depend on
You are full of great conversations
and jokes that make us laugh
You make time in your busy days
for us and we appreciate that
You are a kind and thoughtful friend
always there for us to visit
With you there is no beating around the bush or
sugarcoating the truth
You are not phony
You are a true friend
And we consider you as part of our
