Poems

I wish I could find that someone who devotedly loved I Not already got a wife And vanishes in the blink of an eye I try to sleep,  but it's evading me Tossing and turning till dawn Why does it alway happen to me ? Why do I mourn ? If they were meant to stay Then so it would be Toss and turn all night Till dawn's first light I get up, shower Have a cup of tea I brush my hair in the mirror And who do I see ? The person who devotedly loves Is sitting in front of me But more importantly - what made me see? The Bible still open upon my knee The mirror of his word is all I need Not a fake snake, like Eve once recieved If me and my Bible never part One day God will grant me the desires of my heart.  Copyright - Kizzy York aka K.J.

It's horrible being alone Waiting by the phone For a text or a ring But I know I'm just a play- thing Happiness comes from within - they say But I have been busy and counting the day Till you're back again Just 2 brief texts - and again the pain Of no reply I don't see why Or do I ? It's the wife in your life I should have known better Trapped in a fetter Can't see a way out So I just sit here and pout Waiting for a text or a call I have made such a great fall Story of my life When I just want to be someone's wife 27/05/2017 Copyright Kizzy York aka K .

As memories fade We seek a new day I didn't have it made But that does not mean decay These things make us stronger Like a caterpillar from its chrysalis As the days get longer We realize we were made for more than this Mediocre life, lots of strife No longer - no more Life is getting better Maybe something good is in store Copyright Kizzy York aka K J Oakes January  26th - 2017

Alas you are now gone, Someone's brother and some mums son Gone forever - but not from our heart's It truly has torn us all apart I have your picture in a frame I will never forget your name You cross my mind often - And always will God whispers to me - Be still Was so final - our last goodbye I often still cry Oh - how I pray you could have been revived Alas, I was the one that has survived I will try to live with purpose In due course Gain a new life No longer your wife Cancer respects no one And proceeds till it's jobs done It couldn't care less No matter what we confess It's on everyone's mind It's so unkind It is not pure We will pray for a cure Until that day We will continue to pray And continue to pry Till the day that Cancer will die Written for Wayne and a cure for cancer CANCER WILL DIE - Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes Copyright Jan 19th,  2017
