More than Memories

Posted on 10 May 2019 by poeticjourney

They quick to say you’ll have memories
I don’t want the memories
I want you here with us.
Maybe im been selfish.
But I don’t care.
What are memories?
When you can pick up the phone to tell them
You love them.
When you can hug them.
And hear their laughter.
All I have is memories
I need more.
I want more.
More time.
I’m not ready to say goodbye
Memories aren’t enough
I just need
No, I just want
More time.

More of my feelings and emotions. I lost my Godma. Guess I should be lucky/bless I had her as long as I did. Almost shared my age. It’s nothing like having them here with us. Make sure let your loved ones know you love them.

Tomorrow Not Promise

Posted on 29 Apr 2019 by poeticjourney

Tomorrow not promise to anyone
So many dying left and right.
Tomorrow not promise
It could be last time saying
Goodbye
It could be my last time saying
I love you
Tomorrow not promise
I love you today
I cherish you
I love you
I’m sorry
Tomorrow not promise to anyone
Let me show you
I love you
Let me tell you.
I love you
I said
Tomorrow not promise
To anyone.

Fight the Feelings…

Posted on 22 Apr 201722 Apr 2017 by poeticjourney

Fight the Fall

I can see myself falling…

in love with man….

I can’t have…..

I seem to always…

get put in this position….

Why we want what we can’t…

have?

I tell my heart to stay on guard..

because his my weakness…

It’s like diving head first…

and think later…

Why the hell you making me feel..

this way?

I love been free…

without remorse….

I’m screwed…

while you here…

I see myself loving you…

While fighting my heart…

I don’t want love here…

What happen to fun and freedom….

Did I mess up falling for you….

YES!!!

Did I FUCK UP, letting you back..

in my bed?

HELL YEA!!!!

I hate that I let my guard break once again..

When will I learn?

I’m falling and fighting myself?

I so hate…

feeling so confuse…

You cloud my judgement…

I’m over here over thinking..

and still fucked up…

I’m falling..

while fighting regret…

I regret that one last chance to go there with you..

that one last chance to put my feelings in the air..

I regret opening myself to a man who isn’t ready..

I fail to realize to not see I couldn’t control..

how my feelings would react when you walk back in..

How did I let my heart get chip…

dent…

I regret everything that has happen in the past week..

But then again I can’t say…

I really regretted it…

It was meant to happen, so I could open…

my eyes to you..

I was hoping he would open

his eyes to reality…

but as someone brought to my attention..

I fucked that up by being..

unexperienced….

What do we do when regrets seem to take over..

But at the back of your mind..

You screaming…

but words seem to betray you ..

and your emotions is taking over..

Not sure when I wrote it. I just know it was sometime last year. With different things I was going thru, and things other people were going thru. Just put my heart in my work and wrote. I thought about changing some of the language, but at that point of my life. I was struggling so hope you enjoy..

Preparing

Posted on 22 Feb 2016 by poeticjourney

To say goodbye….
Its heartbreaking…
To hear you have lost…
The will to fight…
You have refuse to even…
Try…
I hear they are bringing in reinforcers
as last resort….
To hear you lose…
Who you use to be…
Breaks my mother’s…
Heart. .
Preparing…
To not have you here…
Anymore is heartbreaking….
You was the woman to keep the…
Family together….
Today…
We got the call…
You coded…
The burden became too much. .
My God….
I thought you would be here …
A little longer….
Me and my mom…
Was just talking…
About you and how the old you
we thought returned…
But God needed you more…
Preparing is no more…
Death is all around me…

I bn working on dis poem for a few days. I didn’t know how to finish it and I honestly thought I had plenty time to finish it before she pass. No matter how often you think you may have more time with a love one. You need to let them know how you feel. Tomorrow isn’t promise to anyone, no even a second, minute. Tonight I find out I lost a family member as well. So the poem hits me even harder then before

Year almost over and got me thinking

of different conversation we had, and

ones that were never said for whatever reason.

Maybe we should’ve just left things the way it was from get go.

Maybe not, who knows?

Only GOD!

It’s been a minute since I heard your

voice, I was scrolling thru phone for

song to sleep to, and you waltz in my

thoughts, and what the different songs

mean to me.

I do miss you, but must of all I pray you

well, happy.

Time to let things go for good and I see

that more now then ever.

I hope dis reach you in good spirit,

cause I’m not sure what it doing to me.
Happy Holidays and for last time, I love

you and goodbye…
