To my grand daughter Faith
To My Granddaughter

Ah!! My granddaughter! My joy.
She lightens my load
She's like a new toy.
She smiles at me, ever so slightly
I grin right back at her but ever more brightly.
She's the light of my life. I love her dear.
Feels just like Heaven when I draw her near.
Bedtime! Yes, a sweet time of
Night, night, precious girl.
Let's you sleep and I pray one night grandma could lay you down and  tuck you in bed kiss your forehead and tell you good night and sweet dreams my grand daughter grandma loves you so dear

Unforgiveness
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Unforgiveness
When unforgiveness lives in us, it eats us up alive
It takes so much wasted energy and time so precious and so short
To carry the pain, to shuck and jive and life abort
To take all the blame, to wear the shame and play the game
It lives in our head rent free and will bring you to your knees
Let it go, make your amends and how the other feels, it all depends
You may find out, they didn't even know, they were living in your head, just breath
Say I 'm sorry and let it go, let God do the rest and continue to grow...by Jeannie Palma

Love is Real
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Love is Real
Love is pure like a
white wedding
gown.
Love is honest and
real like your heartbeat.
Love has its own
way of arriving like
the seasons.
Love makes you smile
for no reason.
Love is like your
favorite flower,
which covers the
world with its
fragrance.
Love is a remedy;
It's joy for those
wounded souls.
Love is like a volcano;
it's not apologetic,
and it flows
without resistance.
Love is like fire that
burns in the core
of the earth.
Love is a paradise
where two hearts
overflow with delight.
Love is a beautiful
sunrise.
Love comes and goes
like your favorite song,
wonderful when it begins,
and sad when it
ends.
Love is the light that
shines on the dark
places.
Love is real and not
predictable.
It never tells when
it arrives, and you can
never know when it
will go away.
Love is a mystery.
It's unseen but real,
as the wind is not seen
but felt.

To My Daughter Sonja
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
To My Daughter Sonja
Love at Last ..Sonja
I remember the good times,
that we once had...
but still my life,
is oh...so sad
I try to look forward,
but my mind goes back...
because a piece of the glass,
on our portrait is cracked
I try so hard to protect the glass,
I won't let it shatter...
Because you and your love,
are all that matters
My family is all,
that means anything to me...
still...everything always
gets blamed on me
This happens to Moms,
all over the world...
we're supposed to be perfect,
we learn this as girls
I have never been great
or the "best of Moms"...
And, at times I've failed
by the things I've done wrong
For those things I am sorry,
I didn't want you to cry...
but please remember,
my eyes are not dry
I hope you can find,
our love that seems lost...
for the mistakes I have made,
came at a very high cost
A piece of my life,
is missing and gone...
And everything feels,
Oh...so wrong
But, there is one thing,
that I can do...
I will try to be strong,
just for you
One thing I feel,
down deep in my heart...
It's my love for you,
I guess that's a start
You have a new son
now growing inside...
And, I hope that you feel
each of his kicks with pride
You will feel love,
like never before...
it is your family,
you will completely adore
It's a new beginning,
you will forget the past...
It completes you as a woman,
It will be "Love at last....Sonja

Dreaming of a stranger
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Dreaming of a stranger
Dreamland awaits you,
Close your eyes,

Imagine you and I,
Close as breath,

Skin upon skin,
Lips touching,

For you taste of Raspberries,
sweetly irresistible,

The fragrance of you,
Takes my breath away,

I am burning inside,
A torch of fire,

Burning fuel of passion,
For you are my desire,

My heart beats with every breath,
You are my destiny,

Your eyes evade me,
deep, dark, mysterious,

I am your slave,
Your love has captured me,

Grab my body,
Pull me close,

Show me your love,
In ways I could only dream.

Wake me I must be dreaming,
This is a fairytale of a stranger

There are Times
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
There are Times
There are times when I look up to the sky,
I feel so bad, I just want to die.
I''ve tried so hard to curb my sorrows,
But all I get are more tomorrows,
That turn into nightmares everyday.
To carry on, to find a way
Is more than I can bear.
I''m supposed to carry on, to care,
But, what''s the point of being here
When everyone I hold so dear
Are behind a pane of glass so thick,
It makes me shudder, it makes me sick.

I''m on my own, I feel so down.
Things are never what they seem,
Laughing and joking like a clown
I look happy but silently scream.

And, yet here I am, still trying for what?
I really don''t know why.
"Life''s so great" that old chestnut,
Just makes me want to cry.

So, next time you look at me and think,
"There''s nothing wrong with her"
Look harder and see the real old me
And see which you prefer.

Gina & David
The years have flown by so fast
There have been ups, there have been downs
And while I’ll always cherish the past
I hope your future is filled with more smiles than frowns.
I have been wrong plenty of times in my relationship with your father, but every time I took an opportunity to learn something new. Tell your husband how much you love him, as often as you can. Be fun, but be real. Appreciate him for the man he is and the man he will become.
May you have the wedding you’ve always dreamed of, and a life beyond your wildest expectations.
May your husband be your shade from the sun, warm drink on a cool day, and a rainbow after every storm.
It is hard to believe that we are here on your big day, as you embark on this next journey in your life. I will never forget the drive to the hospital on the day I gave birth to you, and the drive back home with you in my arms. The day we first dropped you off at kindergarten seems like yesterday, and I’ll never forget the pride we watched you  approached every day of your life with passion and energy, and I have no doubt that your marriage will thrive because of
You have brought so much happiness and love to our lives and I am proud of everything you have accomplished in your life and the woman you have become.
I have loved you from day 1
I remember the little girl you use to be ,
We are joined together with loved ones to celebrate your union with a man who I know you love dearly. have your own family now, you will always be a part of  me You are a beautiful and loving daughter, sister, niece, and friend to everyone you meet, and I am so proud of the woman you have become.
It brings tears to my eyes to remember all of the years we shared together, from the day I brought you home to when we said goodbye Over the years I was amazed by everything you would do
But I wasn’t prepared for how quickly you grew
While I will always cherish these memories from our past,
Despite your growing up way too fast,
I can’t wait to see what adventures await
As you and your husband proceed out that gate
And know that you will always be the sweet little girl by my side
But today I am thrilled to celebrate my daughter, the bride Gina I love you no matter what always, and David my son in-law I'm sorry I have judge you wrong, I know you will take care of my beautiful wife I mean daughter

Think Back
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Think Back
Think Back

Those scars that we bear on our arms

Those things that we have to hide from our family and friends

Those things that haunt us everyday

Scaly, rough and tough lasts for so long

But the most important thing

Is the reason behind it

The reason why it all started

The reason why they did it

Yet no one really wonders why

They all ask about the scar

Hows it going hows it doing

While they forget what it symbolizes

The power the scars have

What they can possibly cause

And what they will lead to

And after it heals, what happens?

People start to forget

And people will continue what they had started

And the cycle will start once again

Until the victim runs out of room in their body to scar

That is when the thing they decide to scar

Is their lifeline

And only

When they are far long gone

Do people start to realize their wrongs

Their actions

Their words

Their behavior

And what they really did to this person

They remember the times he/she has told them to stop

They remember when he/she started to get less quiet

Less happy, less energetic

They finally realized how

What they did to this person was something they should had never done in the first place

Yet it is too late to go back

Back when they were here

Life goes on
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Life goes on
Throught life you have to take decision and whether its positive or   negative, life goes on

Life about whether you take advantage or not anything you do may      cause joy or dolefulness but life goes on no matter what.


As day and years go by you realize that you have made marvelous or harsh decisions but no matter what the circumstance is


Life goes on and you can’t look back at bad because you will torment yourself through your journey. Your life is base on your decision as a human being; life’s about living and dying there is no other way to it.
You either play the cards right or you play the cards wrong it up to you whether you have a prosperous life or a life where you will regret your life taking desicions

Life’s easy but you complicate it
life’s good but you ruin it
life goes on no matter what your decision were, are, or based on

Thought u killed me
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Thought u killed me
Blood dripping from my fingers
Blood dripping onto my feet
Blood slipping through my fingers
From the once slise carcass
Laying in front of me
The body, dismembered, battered and bruised
Hair ripped  on the floor
My clothes are bloodstained
Ripped, tattered and torn
The knife on the floor next to me
The blade stained with crimson
Lifeblood which as once the carcasses OwnThe blood. Pooling at the bottom of the table
nd do you want to know the most important thing?
  Your Nexts

Venom
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
Venom
As I lie in my bed My thoughts turn to you. I think of the time We spent together And how you made me feel alive , I miss your voice As it speaks my name Jeannie in the bottle ,I miss your eyes And how they burn With a passionate flame. I want to feel your breath On my naked skin. And the touch of your hand so tender - Which ignite the fires within. My mouth deeply hungers For the sweetness of your lips. My body craves your touch As you explore me With your fingertips. I want to feel the heat As the passion quickly builds. Your caresses and your kisses Make it easy For my body and soul to yield. I want to feel the pleasure As we feed our lusts and desires. Your flesh and mine Becoming one Burning hot with passion's fire. Only you can satisfy And bring me to ecstasy. Only you can fulfill My deepest desire And my midnight fantasy.
I miss you , Venom

When there is
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
When there is
When there is love
There is nothing Impossible
When there is you & me
There is nothing hard or difficult
When there is understanding
There is no place for problems
When there is faith
There will always be hope
When there is hope
There will always be a smile
When there is a smile
How can tears ever exist?
When there is care
How can a heart be broken?
When there is a heart beat
There is always a way for dreams
When there is a dream
There will always be tomorrow
When there is tomorrow
How can we ever not meet?
If we ever not meet
How can I live without you?
When there is no you
There would be no me

Trapped
Trapped

I'm a prisoner in my own mind,
I can't get out,
It destroys me more and more,
With each passing day
It feels like hell,
nothing can extinguish these flames...

I'm burning alive,
and I will burn all the way down
I'm all ashes now,
Soon I'll become what I've felt all along,
Like nothing,
Nothing at all...

I'm trapped. By Jeannie Palma

In Love with the Stranger in my Dreams
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
In Love with the Stranger in my Dreams
am I awake? can this be real?
I'm drunk in my desire
as you lay next to me
in forgotten dreams.
my lips ache once again to be kissed
my hands long to touch your burning flesh
my heart pounds so hard it nearly escapes my breath
oh, I must be asleep! can this really be true?
Is he real or just a dream that I fell in love with .
somehow you brought it all back to me
feelings of ****** passion and a breath of life
I thought they were forever lost
in an eternal darkness left by lovers gone
my eyes smile once again at the beauty before them

What I fear
Jeannie Palma Oct 2019
What I fear
I lie on my bed, soaking my pillow with my tears.
I try to remember exactly what it is that I fear.
Is it the passing of time or the love that I lack?
Is it the mistakes that I've made or the fact that I can't bring the past back?
What is it that I'm afraid of?
Why am I so scared?
Is it the people I've hurt or the people who've hurt me?
Am I afraid of everything that I can't seem to see?
Is it the love of a friend or the loss of my family?
Is it the possibility that my life can end in a tragedy?
What is it that I fear most?
What do my eyes say I'm scared of?
Is it the sun that sets but won't seem to rise?
Is it the hope that I have that always seems to die?
Is it the trust of a person that I cannot begin to grasp?
Is it all the memories of my horrid past?
Is it me?
Can it possibly be that the thing I fear most is the thing I can't be?
The things that I try to understand?
The me that I try to be with when I'm feeling sad?
The person I'm expected to be? Is that what I fear?
I think the thing I fear most...is me.
