CHARMAINE SIMPSON Poems

What will it take for you to love me again?
I offer you my heart and soul completely.
Is this not enough for you?
Do you see how much this is hurting me?
...

To the love of my life on Valentine’s Day
My boy I do not need today to tell you I love you
I absolutely adore you and every little thing about you
I love your gorgeous face, your happy cheeky smile,
...

My body remains lifeless,
Lethargic,
Longing
For the one,
...

I thought family was forever
I believed it to be true
A relationship that never dies
A bond that has so much strength
...

A picture of a life in my memory – it feels so familiar,
It was a happy time – faces smiling – comfort – security,
Honesty and warmth in shared conversation -
Echoes of a child’s laughter - happily playing -
...

Losing breath - trembling with fear - choking sensation - out of control,
Mind plays flashing pictures - no sense - feeling crazy - no control,
I need you - I need to talk - you are taken - cant be reached - cant speak,
Blocked - stopped - panicked - spinning- falling - drowning - sinking,
...

As I release from my fingertips, what was an evil betrayal,
from the very start –
I say goodbye.
...

I have turned a corner - finally!
Time seems so unacountable,
feels like yesterday - seems like a lifetime.
So much has unfolded,
...

The game of love – the long distance marathon of life-
Our paths crossed – we became a team –
Our goal was to complete the journey together –
Life’s challenges and hurdles we would no longer face alone –
...

FATHERS DAY
What does this day mean to you?

For you this day you celebrate and stop to think of your Dad,
