If your rainbow becomes lost
I shall paint one for you in the sky
I will pull out my ladder
Use a magical brush
Paint you your hope
And bring to you love so lush
When skies are gray
and your moments are sad
I will passionately pray
For a promise to be made
You told me yesterday
“I’m your hope mommy”
And today I tell you,
You make me happy when skies are gray You’ll never know dear how much I love you Please don’t take my rainbow away
There will be days when you too
Will feel your rainbow has disappeared
I will be there through and through
To be your artist in the sky
To give ‘my reason’ a hopeful view
~~~~~~~~
For my beautiful little girl who I call ‘my reason’
Poem Read by: ~L with a song to her little girl at the end.
I am many
Stuck within one human body
Feeling the weight of each fear
Separate memories weaved
As they all Embody
Each tear
As nothing seems to be clear
It’s a confusing place
A reality I hesitate to face
A shame that no one will understand
What is trapped with in this vase
I skim life with hesitation
Worry I may fail
Dread I won’t live up to an expectation
Either to others
Or the me, and my many
Insecurities
Embarrassments
Shame – guilt
Sealed in her basement
That has despondently been built
I know this last enduring flame may show some kind of hope…
But the binding fear and secret gloom
Have cast their deadly shadow
Amongst the darkness of sorrow and disbelief
Joined with solitude she’s left there to cope
She stores in her depth a morsel of hope
Yet it does not release this elevating grief
I have demons screaming in my mind
Ghosts of past haunting present time
My soul seems to be in a bind
and prayers have been denied
Oh, how I tried to trust…
To be faithful and not blind
This body has been too abused
And the night has been consequently unkind
Courage has been declined
My whole life has been entwined within
an atrocious crime
The clock has chimed
This one last time
I desire to persevere
through the fear
the past
the hurt
And the darkness that rears
With the Spirit of God
and His light that
continues in grace
As He leads me towards glory
It’s this faith I must embrace
Loneliness may set in
Spoken words seemingly null
Yet, today I was reminded that in the stillness of solitude
Despite complexity and
setbacks in achieving victory
I choose to believe in hope
In this seclusion of silent chaos
I must allow my spirit to grieve
It is in that realness where I shall achieve
I ought not let such darkness deceive
Why have I been so naive?
The true touch of God
I must believe
In my perseverance
I understand the urgency to press on with
the firmness of truth
and the determination
to overcome
In the void of harmonies…
The loneliness of absent camaraderie’s…
The sorrows of yesterdays…
I shall remember this is not a new song
I choose to believe in hope
There will be a day
when His glory will slay
that dreadful sorrow
void – negated
Loneliness – betrayed
And darkness forever desecrated
We have tasted glory
Felt the warmth of heaven’s luminosity
Let us not neglect
the old, old story
when light was spoken
and darkness divided
Even in the pressing void
Flooded sorrow’s
and distressing loneliness we feel…
Death has not overcome
Darkness has not won
The light has not been defeated
Not all has been deleted
Truth has become
Because of the Son
In this world we will have trouble
But take heart
Our Creator has said
“I have overcome the World”
I choose to believe in hope
So I shall have a steadfastness to keep on despite difficulty
Keep hope in the delays
of achieving success
I will have a continuance
in a state of grace
Leading finally to a state of glory
As it’s humbly embraced
When the fullness of light
meets the dark in it’s final hour
Darkness will cower
tremble at the sound of victory
and surrender it’s tower
Oh what a splendid day that will empower
With determination and courage I shall persevere awaiting that hour
I prayed
blinked my eyes a few
my eyes grew heavy
the clock said 11:42
I fell a sleep with peace so true
with hope as my levy
I fell asleep with faith in view
I fell asleep with my hand resting on my face
I awoke in a terror disgrace
a great fear grew
I saw her face
my mind now in review
I was frozen in place
my voice withdrew
and then I remembered my embrace
Titling all the untitled moments one post at a time
Thanks for visiting 'Untitled Moments' Where breaking the silence is a learned journey for me. Passion fills many of my posts and pain is spilled throughout ... as splashes of hope and my faith fight its way to the top, someday there they will stay in victory...humbly shinning with purpose and confidence.
There’s a solemn stillness to the dawn. Hovering above the slumber of life, with grand expectation for the waking dreamer to take his hand. To wander in search of purpose. To claim the dreams that falter and fade with the sunrise. Before they are lost inside the blemished haze of living.
I logged into Twitter one day and I was welcomed with notifications alerting me that some of my tweets/quotes had been re-tweeted and faved. Which, of course, always makes me smile. But to my surprise, I found that the person who was enjoying my tweets was Beth Albright. Instantly, I click on her profile to […]

Here is your FWF prompt… I stumbled across the amazing photography of Tom Clark, whose website is filled with emotional images. I said I was going to choose one for the prompt this week, but […]
I want you to stop what you’re doing. Sit down and really listen to me. Turn off the music. Shut the door. Go in another room. Get away from people. Whatever you have to do. Okay? I have your attention? I know you feel like there are parts of you that are broken, crushed, can’t […]
You have people who believe in you. True, some have misunderstood you, even hurt you. But you have people who believe in you. What do they see? What is the picture they have of you? I know you have your own picture of yourself but my guess is that the injuries have distorted that a […]
Everything that goes wrong, every irritation, gets a hotline right to your emotions. They all feel like great candidates to be the “last straw.” And now this? On top of everything else?! Those words that you use as you place it on top of your heap, as you think about the injustice, the irony, the […]
