Real Life.....

I usually just post my little poetry lines in the hopes the perhaps someday, someone might actually read them. However, today was a special day for me.


Today I had the pleasure of taking care of Emmaline from fussy beginning, through Parish service, and just a few moments ago , a lengthy session of restfully watching some of my favorite music videos on my MAC. All through this wonderful day I looked into those beautiful eyes, and kissed that little neck, thinking to myself , "Oh God, in all my sin, you have gifted me with such beauty in my life". This little life that graces my days and nights, that loves me regardless, that lets me read my poetry to her reclined in my arms and doesn't make fun of me, or call me a girl for my sensitivities.This little soul that insist that I say the prayers with her and Henry every night when I am home, and makes me read to her, even when she has no idea what I am talking about, making me finish reading her The Declaration Of Independence out loud. Blessing is such an understatement, an unfinished expression of how I feel each moment my hours are graced by her. 


This is real, this is life, this is what makes it all worth it. It is in this little soul and souls like hers, in which the Church shall survive. This little Covenant child that will be the flower that blooms making God's Church more lovely to the world, as it already has mine.

Lonely all alone

I can feel it, each time you turn away,

Each time I miss your kiss

Every time the bed goes cold

I can feel the love we miss

I can be lonely all alone

I don't need a crowd like that

I can be lonely all alone

But I can't "want you" back

Every time I see you smile

Each time it's not for me

All your words, your " I love you's"

But I can't "want you" back

Something has got to change inside

Somethings got to give

I've given all to you and more

But I can't "want you" back

Just let me know, is this the way

You want to spend our life

Joined in touch-less romantic bliss

And I won't "want you" back

I can be lonely , all alone

I don't need a crowd of two

I can be lonely all alone

And you can be lonely too
