I Am a Military Girlfriend.....
I am a military girlfriend.I hold no formal recognition with the powers that be.I am at the bottom of the chain. I hold no Military ID card; I am not a "dependent" or parent.The man i love may face unspeakable dangers, and I am at the mercy of those who possess this recognition for news.I understand this and accept this.

Angel From Heaven
Up in the air you go,
Smiling down on me;
Mommy's little pilot,
My whole life through you I see.
Healthy little baby,
Daddy's little man;
Why did you leave us...
To be an angel in promise land???
So full of life,
Big hopes and Big dreams;
Loving every minute on earth with you,
Taken to early, it seems.
So as I sit here and
Feel sorry for myself;

Taken- a poem/song by emiliee jenkins
Somedays she wakes, with a smile on her face
Somedays she wakes and puts on a smile, that is fake
Some nights she dreams, no fear, no despair
Some nights wakes shivering from nightmares
He took something from her that will never return
In her heart, how it continues to burn
He is all she sees when she closes her eyes
What did she do to deserve all of these lives

When I heard your voice
Its sound soothing and sweet
Your voice is what puts me at rest
Everytme I hear you voice
I feel all warm inside
I sit on the window sill
looking up at the night sky
I just remember your voice
and I feel all warm inside
Your voice reminds me of my mother
Who is so caring and sweet
her voice was soothing and sweet
that every time I hear it
I feel all warm inside.

I am from a family where tough love is abundant,
and a functional family does not exist, nor ever will.
I am from a life where friends get left behind,
and new ones must be made.
I am from a place where frienship is plentiful,
but love is rare.
I am from a house that is full of happiness,
but no life.
I am from a school where friends are are bountiful,
but best ones are scarce.

This is a Poem that Chronicles my life, so it might be a bit long. ( You have to remember, I am 39 years old).
I CRY!
When I was a child and I first realized that my mother and father was my world.
I CRY!
When I married for the first time.
I CRY!
When My daughter was born five weeks early and I had to leave her in the hospital.
I CRY!
When I brought My daughter home from the hospital happy and healthy.

Finally a change in the weather. The rain has slacked off and some sun is pushing through, warming up the waters of the swimming hole. In town it is a littlt humid and I was about to pass out Z(fibro-zapped), on the pub floor where I was drinking water; My mate/carer came to the rescue, I was reminded of the sudden flushes we can get and immediate lapses of energy that create accidents, so dont f...1 Recommendation2 Comments -

Faster and faster
Spills the hourglass
As I wait for him
No longer a child
Yet eternally my child
Becoming the man
I always dreamed he would
As he signs the papers
That will take him away
To far off places
Where I can not follow
As I watch him run
Headlong into life
I know the hourglass
will not stop
Even if I wanted it to
But couldn't it just
Slow down for a moment?
