Thank you Dad for everything you have done,
your hard work and sacrifice for everyone.
Thanks for everything you continue to do,
but most of all thank you just for being you.
Thank you Dad for taking time to care,
we really appreciate you always being there
at those times when we feel we really need you;
you never leave us wanting, always come through.

Thank you Dad for being constantly strong,
for being such a rock when things go wrong,
for making time for us, for always listening,
to the myriad of problems we constantly bring.
Thank you Dad for calming our fears,
for soothing words, for wiping our tears.
Thank you for never letting us give up hope;
for convincing us repeatedly we can cope.

Thank you for your guidance as we move along,
for teaching each one of us right from wrong,
for encouraging us always to do the right thing,
for the moral compass that guides our everyday living.
Thanks for your calmness, your infinite patience,
your common sense when faced with youthful exuberance!
Thank you for providing us with everything we need
for believing in us, giving us the tools to succeed.

Thank you Dad for never giving up on me,
for encouraging me to be all that I could be,
for your forgiveness those times I was absolute brat,
for your direction when I had no clue what I was at.
Thank you from my heart for being such a great Dad,
Thank you for the wonderful upbringing I had,
Thank you mostly for teaching me what it means to be a Dad,
If I am only half as good as you then my kids won’t do so bad.

John 6:27-29
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.


1 - John 17:3
and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent

2 - John 17:8
and they have believed that thou didst send me.

3 - John 17:18
As thou hast sent me into the world,

4 - John 17:18
even so have I also sent them into the world

5 - John 17:21
that the world may believe that thou hast sent me

6 - John 17:23
and that the world may know that thou hast sent me

7 - John 17:25
and these have known that thou hast sent me.

You are the apple of my eye,
And the sun in my sky,
When your smile shines bright,
Everything feels just right.

If I could have it my way,
We would simply chat all day,
Continuously make you blush,
Getting you all hot and flush.

Babe, you are my only desire,
The precious fuel to my fire,
I can't get enough of you,
The beauty you hold is true.

You are the woman I adore,
That and then some more,
I'll tell you each and every day,
In my own special way.*

I wanted to erase her name from an empty notebook
I burnt blank pages in desolation
But she still survived in my mind (and heart)
Like those radiant ashes at the fireplace,
reminding me of our timeless love
Now I curse the fire
for it was too late
**She was lost from my life

I like to walk the bridge*
Between Fantasy.....
And Reality

I find an elation
Wondering which side
Of the Mirror I am on

Reflections and intersections
Of Memories Appear as if
They are Near, and

Not just shadows
Shifting and drifting
To nothing, and out
Of this Darkness

Leaps the Spark of Creation

You ask why and innumerable thoughts traffic in my mind rebelling to come out, to give you a piece of themselves.
But, do you really deserve it?
Do you have that right to know?
Is it true that you, a mere human - all skin, blood and bones deserve even a scent of the misery that I bestow?
All I am is scared.
Frightened to be vulnerable, afraid at the thought of being judged by the one I trusted, and terrified to lose them.
So promise me you would not leave, and prove it. Stay.
Gaze at the stars with me while we drive away all through the night.
Imprint me in yourself.
Believe me, trust me & love me.
Even when I'm pointing a gun at you.
Even when I ****, ****** or slaughter.
Even when you think I have changed.
Don't.
Don't believe that.
'Tell me about my origins,
teach me of my past.
Enlighten me my virtue,
and firework my path.'
But don't you dare leave the passenger seat.
For I will come back from hell if I had to, to hunt you down, while being what you feared I wouldn't. A nightmare.
So do not lie.
Do not break any promises.
Do not walk away from our drive.
Our drive.
Or I'll skin you alive.
Maybe I'll marinate you, cook you, season you & have a fancy dinner as well.
All of this while dining underneath the stars.

I just want you
to be happy
but sometimes
and selfishly
I want to be
your happiness

But
'happiness is a choice'
you say
and you didn't choose me

I clung onto the idea
since you made me happy
it would be the same for you

What is happiness now?
where has it gone to?
In time, society has robbed us
the real meaning of happiness

Go on your own way
and pursue your happiness
for your smile, is my smile
your laugh, is my laugh

and I'll be happy
when you find your happiness
because I love you
always have, always will
