If you look carefully you will see
There is love inside of you and me
Unspoken words, and late night hugs
The gentle touch of my hand after “snug as a bug.”
Mother and daughter, Quite the pair
I help you get dressed and comb your hair.
You smile and kiss me when I am feeling sad
One simple gesture chases away all the bad
Those nightmares that wake you are merely just dreams
Yet I’ll be here waiting any time that you need
To say you are my everything is just not enough
You are my soul, my sunshine and my most treasured love
In the years to come we will have many adventures
But my most favourite one
Is one you cant possibly remember
They held you up and I counted your toes
I kissed your cheeks and your soft little nose
A daughter was born and a mother created
The most precious of days to be celebrated
Happy birthday to my little girl
To others a child, to me the WORLD

Through this poem, I do solemnly confess
My morbid obsession with Death, my Knight
Meeting you would be the ultimate test
Your harrowing grasp is my daily plight

You did take my mother that fateful day
To that realm of gold beyond this Earth's veil
Mem'ries, are all I have, of what she'd say
They'll keep me going 'til when "we'll" set sail

I long for you with a yearning that's deep
Simply waiting for you to come my way
To take my weary soul for Hædes' keep
How I pray Fate may hasten to that day

I'll be on my watch for you 'til we meet
Death, this verse has been penned for you, my Sweet
:)
... the final repose...

she ruffles thru' the written rows,
line by line, she sifts thru' prose
intent on catching with her knows (nose),
the timeless scents of dainty rose

her eyes affixed to gems in ink,
the precious words adeptly linked
by (her) lover's mind that ever thinks
of her thru' night without sleep's wink

in penned down verse she does find peace
amidst the words of (her) lover's piece
she is the muse that brings him bliss,
and with these words he sends his kiss
"Why don't you be the artist, and make me out of clay?...
Why don't you be the writer, and decide the words I'll say?... "
- Ellie Goulding

from your happiness
flung it to the heavens

when the cold moon shines
