MY AWAKING HOURS


My awaking hours

My awaking hours are lost in you 
the twenty millions billions of 
stars shining on high all over the sky 

The moon holding on to every secret 
that was ever made, 

The years has been passing like clock 
work, but my heart holds on to the 
memories of you, 

I hold on to the picture of you 
You was only five when you was buried 
It was so hard for me to ever truly say goodbye, 

This pain had almost taken me with you 
but life pulled me back to keep on living 
for the world to know about you, 

So I put you in the sky where the stars 
and the moon can shine upon you, 
Why I have been trying to pull the stake 
out of my heart, 

Every night I look out my window just 
to see your beauty shine back at me 
I start talking to the moon all about you, 

I want to say how much I miss you 
I love you so much my grandson 
My beautiful angel of this grandmas life 
Just know I will never say goodbye , 

My waking hours wishing I could see you 
again oh how my emotions my my heart tremble 
my mind hearing you calling my name 
oh hear comes the rain.

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the80's, 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery / Judy Emery
