There is nothing I can compare
His radiant gaze... looking up at me
There is nothing more pure
The warmth, his touch, our happiness combined
What can I make of this?
I don't want to be anywhere
Except in his arms
Not a day goes by
Without wishing I were with him
Lost and presumed dead...
Perhaps in Heaven, I'll see him again
I'm blessed to see his smiles live on
Our daughter, Ophelia
The same eyes, the same smile
I love her all the more
Becca Addams Jul 2016
Still cries
Whispers of misfortune
"It'll be okay"
He promises so lovingly
"What's mine...
Will always be yours"
I don't want...
To be like this...
I just want to have equality
We're the same aren't we?
Why am I treated less?
I want to be you
Not this... brokenhearted
He kisses me gently
And warms my hands
"I give you
All that I have
Because nothing in this world
Means anything to me
Compared to your smile"
Becca Addams Jul 2016
This is not what I meant to give you
This is not what I thought we'd be
When I laid in bed
I would dream of us
Among the stars
With your soft kindred spirit
Dancing with mine
I've always wanted
Just to be your only one
I want your innocence
You soft lips
I want to be with you
Beyond the stars
You are my only love
My sweet redeemer
I'm so sorry
My love
I have made you horribly sick
Please don't leave me
I know it can get better
Please, feel my heart beat
Let it beat for you
My love
Becca Addams Jul 2016
It's been long time
Long ways
But I'm happy
To see your face
Oh how I've dreamed
Your hand against my
Ever beating heart
Breathing, breathing
I want to feel your heart beat
I want to be with you
I want to hold your hand
I want to breathe in
Your every loving breath
There is no one
No one
Who could ever be like you
I don't want
A world
Without you
To my husband
Becca Addams Jul 2016
No matter where I go
I will always be your prisoner
I am never free to be happy
Once a punishment
Now I long for
I was never free to begin with
I will always be stuck
In this never ending torment
I could be traveling the world
But I'll always know in my heart
I did something wrong
Even if I didn't do anything wrong
I will always be a prisoner
In my own heart
Never loved
Never given pacience
Always a burden
Maybe my soul has something written
Begging others to treat me like hell
I am not my father's child
I am not disrespectful
I have done you no harm
Why do you treat me like this?
Scorn me constantly?
I give up.
I can't do this anymore.
Leave me alone.
I'm just completing my death
But my soul was already dead
Becca Addams Jun 2016
My eyesight has betrayed me
Shown me visions of darkness
I have only hoped
But lost joy made me heartless
A waking thought
Of beauty and happiness
Has only left me
Feeling sorriness
Inspired by Edgar Allen Poe
Becca Addams Jun 2016
I'm afraid of the underlying whisper
Threatening me
Haunting my every thought
What would happen if...
No... Not yet...

Crow? Why are you afraid?
I fear my wings may fail me
The soul relying on me
Lost to wonder in the sea of lost souls

Her tragedy a mystery
Her sorrowful love
Mourning her for all his days
Letting the Raven feed on his carrion

Please, guide my wings
So I might never fail
To keep her soul safe
So she may see her love again
