Where did I get it wrong?

 

Where did I go wrong?

What are my wrongs?

Please list them to me

You have ignored me

You have acted like you have made it

On your own

What did I do make you

Turn your back on me?

Please tell me why I got it wrong?

I need to know

All I have ever wanted was the best for you

My thoughts for you are perfect

For your peace and success

It was me

There for you

When you were broken hearted

I was there for you

When you failed

And you struggled with depression

And disappointments

Loneliness, heartbreaks, insignificance

I was there for you

When you struggled with life’s pressures

 

I have always been by your side

I have never left you

I never will

I was there when you were broke

I can never get tired of being there for you

I still your storms and rebuke the devourer

I heal your wounds

The heavens have been commanded to bless you

 

I have always been there for you

Not that you ever noticed

I am your shepherd

The restorer of your soul

I have never left you

Even when you thought

I was not near

 

I have shared your every walk and step

Your grief was mine

Your sadness was mine

Your pain was mine

Your tears were mine

I have been your Father

 

You hid in me when

You needed rest

I have never disappointed you

I am the only faithful friend you have

Yet you ignore me

You know that breaks me

I want to spend time with you

I want to be with you

I love you dear child.

But just where did I get it wrong?

 

 

 

Thanks

 

Thank you for all you are

I need you to know

I love you more than you will ever know

So I am sending you warm kisses and hugs

So when you feel any less than you should

You know we are here

Loving you

Little by little and all the way

 

You won’t need to doubt my devotion

and the promise of my love

You won’t need to search

long and hard

for my admiration

and the intensity of

My respect

You got it right here

Loving you

 

Little by little

Drip by drip

Day by day

In every way you need me to

I will.

Thank you, for everything

 

Naked 

A Poem by Miss Purple Poetry

We rest our fears to peace

As we embrace our unspoken voices

We lay our inhibitions at the door

We lay our fears to rest

As we walk naked

Up this mountain

Called life.

Words must be spoken

Our voices brazen and bold

No more inhibitions

We breathe longing

For more and more

Reaching and reaching

Stretching and stretching

Feeling upon feeling

Till we lay empty

Naked

And Satisfied

Our duty is done

We found our collective

Voices

We rest in peace

Naked,

We have spoken.

 

 

Ladies Junction

 

We are mothers and sisters

Standing at the door of

Possibilities

We are girls and ladies

Standing at the door of hope

We are women

Of every race, culture and creed

Believing

That at this very junction

There is hope

A pathway into life

Stand with me

Stare into the future

With me

Do you see life?

Do you see hope?

I see doors opening.

I see a path to life.
