My Heart

Danyettia Crawford 1985 (United States)



To my kids I can't express enough the joy you've brought to me
You give me a comfort and fill my heart endlessly
From your smile and your hugs to your
Kisses and blankly stares
God knew I needed you in this lifetime to share
Share my wisdom and love, my life I will give for yours

God is full of many surprise
And everyday I know I'm bless when I see each of you open your eyes
To this scary world we live in but then I remember God is near
Watching and protecting each of you
This is and will always be my prayer for you

I love you more than words could describe
My heart beats because i was blessed with you as my child

I write these words on a late night you see
Because there's not a moment that goes by that I'm not thinking of you 3
Thinking of ways to give you the best life I can
Praying to God to always hold your hand
Through the darkest hour and the brightest day
Because with His and my love you can get through anything

So no matter how far you go in this lifetime you have
My love will forever chase you and be there
I promise to pour my life in you because God poured life in me when He blessed me with you!

I love you my Heartbeats
Quenderious Naduah and Jadavion

IN MY POEMS I usually do not share my poems because they are sacred to me It is the place of no judgement where my feelings can be released In my poems is the best part of me This has been my outlet of things that has now set me free In poem is some of the greatest challenges I have faced But also, of the experiences that molded me into the woman I am today I have experienced a lot of joy but pain too Held myself responsible even for the things I never knew I grew into poems and them into me My heart is exposed through each word you read I allow vulnerability because the same poems I write are the same ones that saved me Heartbreak and lost I have endured it all Learned how to trust God and always stand tall Mistakes I made taught me the best In poems I surrendered my stress Depression hit like being overtaken by a wave But through my poems unbroken I stayed I am a book many dare not to read Mislead by the thought of knowing me In my poems is my reality often altered with some fantasy I am just me and I give my all So, as you read my poems, I hope I can make you smile more…
