Memories

Memories that flood my mind.

Some I wish I could forget and some I am glad I can’t.

The ones of good bye cloud my mind.

Memories are all that’s left when time has taken your loved ones away.

Our children’s memories are what we make every day.

The time and effort we make with them will last longer than any toy and when we are old we can share in the stories of the past.

We will live on to our grandchildren and great grandchildren, the memories will be shared.

Soul Mate

When your eyes meet, your heart beats as one. Faster and faster in perfect rhythm. When you are not together, they are always with you in your thoughts. There is a strong need to fill the void that once was filled. The feeling of being lost overwhelms your whole being. The search can last for life times, in this one or the next, in constant search, until your hearts beat as one again. Then you feel complete and one with the universe.

Reflections

There comes a time in your life when you reflect on your past and wonder, is this where I should be; Is this the person which I wanted to become? The answer is yes, I have been cheated on, lied to and double crossed, but there are no regrets. Because that has made me who I am and I have stayed strong in my convections. I believe in God, don’t drink, smoke or do drugs and I love life and enjoy children even in the bad times. In the reflection in a mirror I see myself as a lucky man because I have had this love of my life twice, once when I was young and again now.
She smoothes the rough edges of the bad times. She was always in my mind. She kept me comforted through the hardest time of my life. I could close my eyes and see her smiling face and that made me feel good. In the good times when the sun was in my face and looking at the ocean alone, she was there beside me. God does answer prayers He brought my love back to me. I see love in her eyes. I taste love one her lips and I feel love from her heart. Her words fill my mind with love, how can I be so favored by God to give me this gift. The gift of eternal love.
I don’t know how long God will give us but for me I will love her for as long as I have air in my lungs. When we are in heaven I will know what true love is and even eternity won’t be long enough for us. The mirror also shows me a bright future, one filled with adventure and wonderment. To share it with my love, to laugh together cry together to feel the rain on our skin. To breathe fresh air of some distant place is something I will always cherish. In our old age as we hold hands and watch the sunset and sun rise, no regrets of the past. I thank God for the life he has given me.
There are still lots of pages to be written in my life and my wife and our children and parents will fill theses pages. Everyone has a book of life. Some pages are all blank, some are short stories but ours will filled from cover to cover and have more pages than the leaves on the ground in fall.

Time

Time how mysterious you can be. It moves so fast and so slow. In a blink of any eye 10 years can pass and then in time of sorrow a blink can last a year. A short time for love and laughter is better than a life time of pain and sorrow. We cannot control time but we can make it a friend or foe. We can chose to make the best that time has given us or fight it to the end. I choose to make it a friend. Most things in life that are wondrous only last a short while. The sunset or sun rise, so I choose to stop and enjoy those moments.

Where has the innocence gone

Where are the days of youth
Where is the time of innocence
Why must children become old before their years
.
Lost forever never to return
Oh how I wish to see the world through the eyes of innocence
Serendipity, please find me and show me the lost years of youth
The time grows near when innocence will be lost at birth
.
Children of days gone by knew life in a simpler time
Over are the days of simple pleasures
Memories of innocence is left behind

Strings

The strings of life are like a web. The same web that catches the love of your life also holds all the things we want to let go of. Bad memories or people who strain your life to the point of breaking this web. If we could only clip the string that hold the anger and all the things that clog up the web of life. Allow the web to flow free in the breeze and feel the sun and allow itself to be attached to strong trees that will allow it to stay strong and ever present. If only people with love and devotion be allowed to remain. What a wonderful life we would weave.

Ever Present

Your love is ever present
It surrounds me, fills me
Intoxicates my senses

When we are far away
I carry your love in my heart
You’re ever present on my mind

I can feel your thoughts enter my mind and slowly warm my body
I feel your skin next to mineI carry your love with me and in me all the days of my life
