She caught me as I glanced at her, my eyes in disbelief of how beautiful she was, I don’t remember looking away.

I waited a while as I collected my thoughts, I had to say hi and even if she didn’t reply, I could at least say that I tried.

Having finally gathered the courage, I stood up, walked straight to her and said hi, yes I stammered a ton, a woman as beautiful as her, Im glad I didn’t run.

I asked for her name but she didn’t reply, she signed at me but I couldn’t understand, oh no I thought, ” I think she’s deaf. ”

I asked her if I could sit, she smiled while nodding her head, my thoughts were all over the place.

She was flawless in my eyes and It didn’t matter that she was deaf, yes we hadn’t even exchanged names yet but when she smiled, I felt alive for the first time in awhile.

She took her napkin and wrote, ” Hi, my name is Ariel, I’m so sorry but I am deaf. ”

Broke my heart, it really did but I wasn’t going to let that change anything, as I wrote ” Hi, My name is Ethan and I have autism. “

If everyone had a dad

Who was more like you,

There’d be a lot more laughing,

And a lot less crying,

The whole world would be blessed,

Fewer people would be blue.

And you may have thought,

That I didn’t see,

Or I hadn’t heard,

The life lessons you taught me,

Trust me, I heard every word.

Theres so much more I’d like to say,

About my dad,

I could go on for days,

But for now,

I’ll end this by saying,

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

Love you dad!

As the days and nights pass by,

I’m no longer thinking about you,

Maybe it’s the quarantine or

The less wine,

Either way,

I’m finally getting by.

For a moment there,

I forgot what’s it’s like,

To be a happy guy

And smile,

This time not only for a while.

Look, I’m better than just ” Fine ”

And for once,

I ain’t even lying.

I’m still stuck,

I think I’m out of luck.

I’ve got nothing left to say,

Look, my words are running away.

I am smart.

I am whole.

I am free.

I am learning.

I am talented.

I am brave.

I am unique.

I am special.

I am beautiful.

I am weird.

I am powerful.

I am worthy.

I am strong.

I am who I am and your opinion doesn’t matter to me. I am me.

I can write you a poem,

Maybe sing you a song.

You look so fine,

Maybe I’m out of my mind.

Take you out for dinner,

Maybe get a little drunk.

Ask you to dance,

Maybe kiss you on your lips.

Not looking for a relationship,

Just a little bliss.

Mom, you’re absolutely amazing,

So pure and so kind,

No one quite like you,

You’re special in my mind.

◇

No one loves me like you do,

Good or bad,

No matter what I do,

I can always count on you,

You always come through.

◇

The sacrifices you’ve made,

The chances you’ve taken,

I’ve noticed them all.

I appreciate you mom, I really do.

◇

I may not always say it,

For that, I might be a fool,

But

I love you mom ♡

Happy mothers day mom!

Love isn’t perfect and humble.

Love is complicated, messy and different, love is everything around you.

Love is seeing her smile and not wanting to change anything about her.

Love is crazy and unexplainable, it’s the crack in her voice and the way you feel when she says goodnight.

Love is being afraid, afraid that you might lose her, love is selfish and bold.

Love is about taking something good and risking it all to make it great.

Love is the scariest yet most beautiful feeling
