Jacqueline Ellison

Hard to believe
You grew up so fast,
Just yesterday
I held you in my arms
...

A heart that is throbbing in an exaggerated way,
A pair of hands sweating with anxiety when they collide
Emotions that are upset by that light,
That lights up when I look into your gaze.
...

May your dreams become, Your Reality.
May your goals become, Your Accomplishments.
May your sorrow become, Your Joy.
May your troubles become, Your Peace.
...

How difficult is to laugh just for appearance,
when your spirit wounded;
unheard-of, me feeling despondent,
and anguished by my own existence.
...

I wrap myself in my blanket,
and pretend that its your arms,
because maybe if you were here,
things wouldn't be so hard.
...

I love you as you are
I love you for who you are,
I love you simply because...
...you enjoy a book better than a movie,
...

When I was young,
I once heard my grandmother say -
"Find a friend, find a treasure"...
As I got older,
...

Stay strong,
through your trials and tribulations.
Learn from,
Your struggles and your pain.
...

It rains from your eyes if nostalgia suddenly
Comes and lashes the virtue of those memories,
When you were mine in the most beautiful moments,
When it was easy to make magic between us.
...

You never ask me for roses in exchange for a kiss,
You have never asked me if I'm faithful or not,
You always worry if I come or go,
You are the living example of what love is.
...

There's no kiss more subtle than the ones from your mouth,
When stealth takes over my lips,
By intruding my pores without grievance,
It Feed's my skin when it touches me.
...

It came at the speed of light,
Spinning my world around,
It knocked me off my feet...
...

You showed up,
All of a sudden,
All you do is lie...
But I can't seem to let you go
...

Even though I know better,
I just can't let you go,
You have become part of my routine,
Although I doubt I'm part of yours.
