But let your hardships go
Feel the freedom in store for you
No more guilt in tow…
No more regrets or worries
No promises left to keep
No one is worth more then you are
And now you are complete!
Traveler 🧳 Tim

Poetic wisdom
This to shall pass in Rhyme.
How long will you stay uninterested?
In this relationship like me, even you have invested.

My idea of intimacy is based on my lifelong emptiness.
Have you too felt the pangs of loneliness?

How long have I been lonely in this world?
Well, essentially since my lonely & difficult childhood.

And now you might ask me another counter question.
If I had my parents along, why this notion?

Now, tell me, is having parents is sufficient?
Surely, we need siblings, friends, and a joint family.

Grandparents help you endure the pangs of loneliness.
Dear, have you ever been directionless?

How can you judge me based on your experiences?
Come to my world, take your time to assess.

The best mug in the cabinet
Sits on the middle shelf
Everyone always grabs it
Rarely left to itself
The handle fits perfect
Though increasingly worn
Held in palms to reflect
With liquid so warm
A once beautiful design now a chipped away after thought
August 23
Flashback to another time and place
The day the angels came and took my beloved Daddy away
I saw it happen and watched as you suffered and you were gone at 45
They are not angels to me but the word I would use does not belong here
Now as I look at your children, their spouses, granddaughters, and great-grandchildren.
I have to hold the tears until 8 am on that awful day
Mom has been with you for four years so there is solace in knowing that
You would be proud of our accomplishments and the promises that were kept
We are far from done yet
We love you and miss you
You are loved and in our hearts forever
Miss you Daddy
Looking for your rainbow in the sky

My soul incarnated to the sound of your heartbeat.
Your incredible soul left us to the same ancient, rhythmic beat.
My soul has loved you for longer than it has existed.
I’ll miss you and long for you beyond the existence of time.
