This morning I layed in bed with my eyes closed holding my pillow tight and for a minute I thought it was you. But when I opened my eyes it was just a pillow and then I cried. I cried knowing that I'll never be able to hold you like that. When you call me "momma" or "baby" and you say "i love you" I get the biggest smile on my face A feeling of happiness fills my body and then I cry. I cry knowing that I will never hear you say them words to me with all the meaning that I give them. When I talk to you on the phone I'm so happy. I let your beautiful voice flow through my ears. I study the way your words sound and then I cry. I cry knowing that I'll never sit on the couch next to you to talk. Because I'll never see the way your lips move when you say the words I study through the phone lines I pretend I'm there example *sits on your lap* I imagine how it really feels to touch you and then I cry. I cry knowing that I'll never be there! I'll never sit on your lap! You will never hold me! When you talk about your family I hope they are all doing well. I smile at the accomplishments your brothers have had. I'm happy that your dad better now and then I cry. I cry knowing that I will never meet them. Because your family will never be mine. When you talk about your boyz at school or the guyz at Johns house I laugh. You guyz are so funny and then I cry. I cry knowing that I'll never meet them. I'll never hear them tell me stories about you. When you get mad at me and yell at me I cry. I'm not crying at the words your saying to me even if they hurt. I cry knowing that I'll never be able to look you in the eyes when you yell at me and I'll never be able to give you a hug and a kiss when we make up. When you tell me stories I listen to them and I love them. They make me so proud of you and then I cry. I cry knowing that I'll never be that girl in the stands waiting for the game to end. I'll never be that girl thats suppose to meet you by the gym doors. I'll never be the girl that you see in your smoke filled car. I'll never be the girl that lays next to you in your bed and I'll never be able to hear you tell our kids these same stories that make you the man that you are. The man that I am so proud of and the man that I have grown to love more then life. THAT'S WHY I CRY! [This message has been edited by just_another_fe (edited 02-20-2000).] |

Hey there just-another-fe, You have said many things in this wonderful poem that I"ve said to many times to myself and I hope that one day the tears stop because you appear to deserve more that he can ever handle. Cerenity-1 |

Hey. I'm not sure of your exact circumstances that led to the writing of this poem, but it opened up alot of wounds for me. An exellent, heart-wrencing poem. Thankyou  I am not a preacher, I just speak the world as I see it. |
