Activly listen with your ears
Make eye contact

Look in my eyes
Know that i care
Feel all my wants
With no despair

Closer and closer i become
I need your warmth
Feeling so strong
I want us to work

Take it slow
We agreed together
I'm so into you i just can't wait
I want to be your forever

Piece by piece
Day after day
Learning to be alone
Is just all pain

Setting my feelings aside
I've come to understand
In order to get you
I need your hand

So i wait for you
i will wait until you are sure
Together forever
With Hearts so pure

Lyrically I'm a poet
Like a romantic,
I'm hopeless,
Getting lost in the days,
I get lost in your gaze,
Inspired by true passion,
A kiss,
To see what happens...
With every action,
There is reaction,
No denying,
The attraction...
Endearing words of affection,
Fall just short of perfection,
Once night falls,
Sleep begins to call,
Sweet dreams are wished,
I see them...
Your sweet lips,
Then your eyes,
As if forever searching,
Finally find each other,
Bursting with emotion,
Now go back,
Read it again,
So my story of  you,
Will never end.

Walk on by
As though he doesn't phase
Just say, "Hi"
Don't stare in a gaze
Keep on going
Just walk on by

As days pass
I don't ask
I assume he is of the past.
Again i drop on by
Just to say, "Hi"

There.
There he is,
Comfortable and warm
Lying asleep as i walk through the door

Can you feel my crush?
End to begining
Begining to end
Be adventurous with a new friend
Break the bread
Bend to the limit
No consequences
Enjoy every minute

Be alert
Be aware
I'm not a perfect person
But I care

Lets make a memory
People often don't share
Give me a kiss
Anywhere I dare

With this restless mind of mine i lye in the bed wide awake. Dreaming of my future, my past, and thinking of my present.
To me i feel as if my legs are locked in bed. I cant get up even if i tried.
I wake and wake and lye like i am unable to physically move.
How do i get up from this slump i have fallen in?
How can i get any rest with all of these thoughts running through my mind

So open yet so closed.

I just want to sleep. Im so awake.

"You are beautiful "
"I love your smile"
"I love you"

Who couldn't love you?, they ask. I would do everything for you, they say.

I'll tell you whats wrong with me, I'm a woman and i'm complicated with my every decision, thought, and argument. Do you realize how patient and honest my partner has to be?

To find the man who can handle all of MY flaws was a very hard task and sometimes even though i have found him, my heart and brain fight every day over if i have made the right move..if i have made the right decision.

I literally have to remind myself on the daily how blessed i truly am. I am learning how to appreciate my life. How to appreciate my love. How to appreciate myself..
Hardest part is waking up each day and telling myself, "I love you. I love your smile. You are so beautiful who couldn't love you?"

I fight for love. My love.

Our son is turning 7 and they have been the best 7 years of my life.
I am so lucky to have the both of you in my life and I wouldnt want it any other way.
Thank you for being so strong and connected. You are always there when he needs you.

Age 1, learned how to walk
Age 2, learned how to talk
Age 3, learned how to create
Age 4, learned how to make a mistake
Age 5, learned who is a best friend
Age 6, learned how to let go
Age 7, learns how to follows his heart..

Co-parenting is never easy when the parents involved are not on the same page of understanding as the other.
Luckily on our sons end he has the best of both worlds. We have compassion, understanding, love, and forgiveness.
We can be a team without being together and that is all I could ever ask for our son to see.

This is my moment to thank you for being an amazing father to him.
I am entirely grateful he has you in his life to love him, to care for him, to be there with him.  
I want you to teach him how to follow his dreams, how to open his heart and to show him how to love unconditionally.  
To show him that even though things may not go as planned, there is always a positive in a negative situation.  
You have made an impact on our lives and we love you so much.
You mean a lot to our hearts.

Thank you for being compassionate.
Thank you for being understanding.
Thank you for being strong.
Thank you for being everything to him.

Cheers to the next 11 years
