Greetings followers! A good friend told me that writing is great therapy. For those that know me, I used to write poetry all the time. But lately, I have not had the drive. But I had a dream last night that was all too real. I dreamed of my future children. I've had dreams before of being pregnant, and dreams of being a mother. With this one, I woke up smiling...and yearned to go back to sleep so I could see them again (I actually had twins in the dream!) So I am sharing this with you. And be mindful that I am not a professional writer...but I play one on TV.
I laid my eyes upon your face
Angelic and perfect
Eyes that only view innocence
Eyes that hunger for knowledge
Eyes that are pure
I think I will name you Arien
And your skin is so soft
Dusted with cinnamon
Flavored with mocha
Sweetend with brown sugar
A beautiful recipe of the Creator
I think I will name you Mahogany
I dream about you
Hair so dark and curly
Cheeks that beg to be kissed
Hands that hold mine so tightly
As if to say, "I am yours"
I think I will name you Miracle
You are a fraction of us
We will always be a fraction of you
And together we are complete
I wish I could shield you
From all that steal your joy
I want to ingest your smile
Because your happiness nurtures me
I think I will name you Felice
And though I speak to you
From a place that you cannot hear
Just know that you are adored
Unconditionally
I think I will name you Love.
Thank you for reading fam! ETJ
Well yep my eyes watered a bit too at the ingest and nurture mark. This is beautiful, friend. <3
ReplyDeleteI like it. It brought tears to my eyes. I was just talking about my journey a little earlier today and feeling a little melancholy.
ReplyDeleteI used to journal a lot growing up, and it was very therapeutic. I stopped journaling about 6 years ago, and I miss it. I keep starting, but then I am not consistent. More recently, I have started back. You definitely have a true talent. I hope you will get back to it.
