SHANE

Losing you left a
Hole in my heart
Like a void that
Will never fill
You were taken
From me so
Sudden never
Giving me a Chance to say
Good bye
As time goes on
My sorrow lessens
But never leaves me
I'm ever mourning what
Could have been
But never was
I whisper your name to the
Wind hoping you know
You'll always live on in my
Heart
Good bye my friend
Until we meet again


DREAMS

Dreams of you
Dance across
My mind
Reminding me
Of simpler times
These thoughts dance
Like pixies in a
Meadow on a
Mid summer day
Bringing me joy
And love that I
Thought I had forgotten
Spreading through my
Mind like wild flowers
In a meadow
Until I wake
And find you are
Not there
But I don't expect
You to be
For someone as grand
As you
Can only be
Found in my
Dreams


SON

You've always brought me eternal joy
Even before anyone else
Got to meet you
You're always the brightest light
On the darkest days
There was never a moment that I regretted
Having you in my life
As I watch you grow
You make me prouder everyday
From the first moment
I got to count your
Fingers and toes
Your first day of school was one of the
Hardest days of my life
But it will be nothing compared
To the day
I lose you to another woman
But when that day comes
I will welcome her to the family
And look forward to
The day you make
Me a grandmother


FIRE

Your touch sparks
A fire with in me
Turning my will power
To ash
Lighting my passion
Turning it into molten lava
This fire consumes me
From the inside out
I feel as though I
May spontaneously combust
From the heat your touch
That Leaves me engulfed
In the flames of passion
You have awaken in me
Even after your touch is gone
My flesh still burns for your touch
This is a fire that only your
Touch can tame
