There was a time I had no one. No one of my own.
Sadness was all I’d known.

There was a time, tears found the depth of my soul.
...

He was sorry for the way he treated me. Never meant for me to cry.
Sorry for not being there, the way he should.

For the tears and pain that couldn’t be erased.
...

The morning frost speaks of what I wish not to hear.
Step out from the warmth that embraced your soul
through the night.
...

When your mother told me we were having a child,
I didn’t know what to expect.
I was ecstatic and fervent all in the same breath.
...

Darling the sound of your first hello, was music to my ears.
The sunshine of you and your smile beams eternal beyond our years.

Now you're here at last.
...

Grandpa said it would never be easy.
I must always be

prepared for what lays ahead on the road of life.
...

Do not judge me.
Do not form an opinion on what you see.

I’m not who or what you think I’d be.
...

I remember how we promised to scatter each others ashes on our favorite hill.
That my love, was a long time ago. Yet I remember it still.

One can’t do as they please anymore. So much changed over the years.
...

When that special someone, comes into your life
shaded memories of loneliness come to pass.

Gone are the tears,
...
