Lagoon
Ashly Kocher Apr 2017
A little boy taken to soon
As he played near the water at the edge of the lagoon
Standing with his father and having a good time
His father didn't think it would be the last time
The last time to see his sons face light up
And see the happiness of his son growing up
In a split second all had changed
His son was taken right in front of his eyes
The life of a child was taken to soon
As he and his dad played for the last time at the edge of the lagoon
I wrote this when we were on vacation in Disney and the little boy lost his life to an alligator attack.

Stop Time, Rewind

Don’t you wish you could stop time
Pause everything and hit rewind

Over and over again, living out your best day

Lost Time
Ashly Kocher Mar 2021
Looking for lost time is just a waste
You can never get it back, post haste
Every
      Second
          Minute
                Hour
                   Gone by
The ticking of the hands
Is just the result of
                              Lost time

Edge of the Water

Take me to the edge of the water
Where there’s no end in sight
Yet the sight is unseen

Open Air
Ashly Kocher Nov 2021
I look out into the open air
Trying to have not a worry or a care
Yet in the back of my mind
I try to leave my worries behind
Letting them flutter away
Allowing them to escape
Out into the open air
Taking in the moments
Embracing them all
Not succumbing to the
Negative falls

My Christmas Wish
Ashly Kocher Dec 2017
My Christmas wish didn’t come true
I wished to have one more moment with you
But then I realized your always here with me
Even though we can not see
The magic of Christmas
      The sprinkle of hope
         Has brought the spirit of you
                From heaven above
Merry Christmas to all who have departed from earth and became our angels
        Spreading love throughout the year
For all those who have passed away. We miss you and love you!

Tell Me Something Good
Ashly Kocher Apr 2018
Someone asks you
                         “Tell me something good that happened to you today”
                       My reply......



         I woke up and I’m alive....
Always happy for when you awake in the morning... tell me something good...

Control
Ashly Kocher May 2021

Best friend
Ashly Kocher Apr 2017
Our first kiss, in the back of your truck
The Ferris wheel lights shining bright
You leaned in and risked it all
Whoever knew that I would fall
Fall in love with my best friend
My stomach was full of butterflies
As you gazed into my hazel eyes
Who knew this was the beginning of our life
That we will grow old together until the end of time.

Little Red Riding Hood
Ashly Kocher Jun 2017
Little red riding hood I will play
I'll take you on an adventure as we f*ck  all day
You tease me so
Getting me close
Run your lips down
Down my body
Making me shiver
Turning me on
Making me wet
I flip you over and slide it in
Riding it slow
As you beg for more
Rub me hard
Make me drip
Ride it hard
Like were dancing in rhythm
Hearing the pounding like drums on our bodies
Screaming at the top of our lungs
**** it feels good
Slow it down as we release
Our juices flow
Taste so good
Lets go again
You take the lead
You grasp my hair
And pull me close
Better get a raincoat because
               CAUTION
            YOU
                 MAY
           GET
                WET....
Just a little something that came to my head. Kinda hot.

Falling Wishes
Ashly Kocher Mar 2018
I peered out the window
        

      Catching a falling star
            

           Tucked it under my pillow
      

              For I always have a wish on hand...
We all always need a wish.....

Ashly Kocher Sep 2021
A part of your life is always hidden behind the surface

Sometimes your meant to be closed off….

Somethings Missing...
Ashly Kocher Dec 2019
I’ve heard the saying
“ Can you miss someone that you never met?”
This holds true for all the women who have had a miscarriage
But what about those suffering from infertility
“ Can you miss someone that you’ve never met or actually never even existed?
I believe so...
Even though someone has no existence but you long to meet, I do feel like you miss them in many different ways

Even through nonexistent form of a human being, the existence that you long for will always be, a non tangible thing, missing from me...

Fragmented
Therapy
One or two
Have a void
Between
Me and you
Carrying the weight
Unbalanced
Heavy too
Anxiety attack
Coming through
Darkest moments
Seeing the light
Deep breaths
Closing your eyes
Therapy sessions
Within yourself
Fill the void
Love, love , love
What you feel
Then you will
Be healed

Perfect Brew
Ashly Kocher Jan 2018
A drop of love
A pinch of you
Mixing up the perfect brew
Under a spell
Drink it down
Screaming I love you without making a sound
You and I
So in sync
Love potion so wicked
Only the two of us can drink
Ashly Kocher Jun 2019
Empty chair
Empty wine glass
Emptiness in my heart
Photographs for memories
Broken hearts, missing you
A poem, a writing, a song, a cardinal, a butterfly, a penny, a dream....
All these things remind me of you
A strong and hard working man you were
I have the same traits, as I live for you
I hope I am making you proud in all I do
I talk to you everyday
          Do you even hear me?
In my heart, I know you do!
Even though you are no longer here
Believe me, it’s been a hard almost 5 years
Another day we celebrate YOU
For on this Father’s Day
I send my love to heaven for you
Broken memories will never fade away
I wish I had more time, wish you would have stayed
Unfortunately you were sick and there was nothing left to do
So I told you to close your eyes, relax and just let go
It was he hardest thing I ever had to do
But I am thankful I have many years, so today it’s all about you

An empty chair
An empty wine glass
An emptiness in my heart
Photographs for memories
Broken hearts, missing you...
        
         Happy Father’s Day Papa Bear

Carry you
Ashly Kocher Apr 2017
I sit here in the silence and think things through
I hope one day I will carry you
To hold you tight, look in your eyes and hold your hands
I will always be your biggest fan
I pray to God through and through
To hope one day I will carry you
I get upset, and angry when it doesn't happen
But when the time is right it will be
True  
That I hope one day to carry you
I know everything happens for a reason and will be patient for you
That I will one day be blessed to carry you

Write your own story
Ashly Kocher Mar 2018
You have a blank piece of paper in front of you...
                        

                     Go ahead

       Let your heart pour out ...
            Write your own story...

Make changes
Underline key ideas
Don’t be afraid to erase problems

The paper is blank
You have the power to fill it up
    How you want it
        With positivity
           With love
              Write your own story...
Don’t be afraid to start the new day on a blank page. Write your own story and how you fill
Up the page for the day.

Just being free
Letting your emotions
Be wild and carefree

Don’t be afraid to dance in the rain

Can now be pulled off your chest
Through the simple motion of movement
You’ll learn about your self improvement

Just dance

We love you lots and hope for the best

Never Had....

An ultrasound to see you or hear your heartbeat

Moments of happiness knowing our family was growing

Enjoyment of growing a baby inside of me

I never knew you existed, until you were gone....

Constant Battles
Ashly Kocher Aug 2021
Self torture from within
Frozen in fear,
Locked in
Constant battle between yourself
Always cautious, having doubt
Translucent energy surrounds your soul
You have the power, the control
Emotions flare at any given time
Just remember your ok, it’s all fine
The walk of life changes in time
No two paths are alike
Timing is everything when the time is right
You’ve got this, you have the fight

Path of Destruction
Ashly Kocher Sep 2017
Through the path of chaos and destruction happening in the world
We need to all unite together and pray for everyone's safety
Gearing up for the worst to come
Hunkering down
Hoping for the best
Thoughts and prayers to everyone who will be affected
Let's all come together and be the light in the darkness that has been, and will be put upon us.

Calming chaos
Ashly Kocher Mar 2019

Quickie...
Ashly Kocher Mar 2018
Getting ready for work
As most of us do
Making the bed
As you come through

Throw me on the bed
Tease me so
Nothing like a quickie
As you erupt in me so

Let’s get the day started
As I feel loved
Nothing like a quickie
To wake me up
Quickie in the morning to wake you up lol

Goodbye
Ashly Kocher Aug 2017
The time has come to close your eyes
We said our I love yous and said our goodbyes
It's time to relax and let the feelings go
Don't worry about us, were stronger then you know.

It's time to see the light, and feel gods touch
It's in gods hands now, but please know we will miss you so much.
I wrote this at my dads bedside before he passed. This day forever haunts me but through my writing I can get through it. 3 years

Ashly Kocher Apr 2017
My love

Butterflies flutter inside of me
Hold my hand
Kiss my lips
Hug me tight
Stare deep into my eyes
Say " I do "
I love you too
7 years later and this all still holds true.
My wedding anniversary is tomorrow. 7 years with my best friend. Couldn't be happier.

If my mouth is shut and hands are bound

Otherwise I’ll be left in a box called
“Lost but not ever found”

Hiding Behind...
Ashly Kocher Feb 2018
Hiding behind your smile
Won’t get you anywhere
Faking it for hours of the day
Trying to mask the pain
Who are you fooling
Lying your life away
Wipe off the fake smile
Remove the mask
Show the world your flaws
Hidden insecurities
Self doubt and no confidence
For then you can be embraced
By the world around you and
Be happy
At last
