Lelani Faifai Poems

Sunny days
Blissful moonlight walks
Delicious dinners by candle light
Heartbreaking goodbyes
...

I cannot hear you
I cannot see you

I can only write to you
...

to me it was special
to you it was routine
to me you meant everything
to you i meant drama
...

I wanted to give up
I wanted to leave everyone behind
Join the souls of no return
Embrace the darkness that is death
...

I worry about the future
What will it bring
Who will i become
Am I going to be able to rise to the occassion
...

how did this happen
i knew better then to dally
but dally i did
and pay the price i must
...

tomorrow comes to soon
we have just begun
the sun rises
and with it you take your leave
...

Things i chose to ignore plague me once more
The doubt i pushed aside
The heavy weight of lies i bore with a smile
The hint of unfaithfulness was completely ignored
...

15 minutes pass.

Eternity of regret.
...

The Best Poem Of Lelani Faifai

I Am A Soldiers Woman

Sunny days
Blissful moonlight walks
Delicious dinners by candle light
Heartbreaking goodbyes
Tearful reunions
Desperate Embraces
Stolen kisses

This is the summary of the lives of women
Women whos men wear army greens
Women whos men have been chosen to fight

We know duty comes first
Yet standby them continuously we will
Through the lonely months we wait
Taking care of the home we share
While our soldiers serve and protect
We weep with all our hearts
Praying that the lives in the line of fire will not be taken from us
Minds daydreaming
Wishing we were with our soldiers again
Pacing anxiously by the phone
Waiting to hear the voice of our far away love
Eyes keeping watch
For the mailman to bring news of their progress
Ears strained
Listening for the front door to open and their footsteps approach

The worry is unbearable
But push through we must
For a soldiers woman doesn't stop pushin
Until their soldier does

I am a soldiers woman
A soldiers Bride

I'll push and push
Until the day my soldier walks in that door
And he says'My Lelani, WE can stop pushin, the wait is over.'

I am a soldiers woman

I came across your poems while Googling my mother's name, Judy Faifai. I have read quite a few of them. They are wonderful to read and enjoy. I wonder if we are related. I am half samoan and half of other stuff. Email me at: joellem2112@yahoo.com. I would like to write more about whose who and who we might be related to. Thanks for the wonderful poems.
