Night Thief

In the comfort of my own sanctuary,
Within the walls of what's meant to be my safe haven.
Underneath the warmth of my own blankets,
in my most defenseless form.
Like a thief in the night it creeps in,
In my weakest state…

I feel it's presence, I prepare to fight. A fight I know I'm going to lose.
Like thick merciless fog, it squeezes the fight out of me.
My hands are down but I still fight.
I scream but my voice gets lost in it’s tight grip.
Like a thief in the night it does as it please…

I pray, I beg, I cry, I curse.
Anything just to make it stop.
Have you no heart?
Have you no soul?
Have you no shame?!!!!!!
In my weakest state,
you hold me down and tear me up.
Have you no mercy? ...

I AM

I am the raging waves of an ocean,  Crushing against rocky shores, Spitting up salty waste, Pulling everything in my wake. I am the magical night sky, The enchanting milky ways, I shoot across the sky, I guide a sailor lost at sea. I am the ball of fire, Spitting with rage, Scorching everything in my wake, I leave a trail of destruction. I am the sparkling stream, Whispering hope between the trees, Giving a second chance to a wilting flower, A lullaby to the ancient forest. I am all the colours at full brightness . What have I reduced myself to??

I knew I loved you before I met you but nothing could've prepared me for the love and joy you brought into my life. I have been staring at a blank screen tryna write how much I love you but no amount of words can really describe the love I have for you. When I heard your very first cry I swear I went looney for a moment, I found myself laughing with joy because my boy you were alive and well. When they placed you on my chest the whole world melted away, I felt unimaginable pride and I just couldn't believe that you were mine to keep, mine to treasure. Holding you for the very first time I felt like I held heaven in my arms. I knew from that moment on I'd love you no matter who you choose to become. I knew I'd love and protect you till the end of time. Some say ignorance is bliss, others say knowledge is. My boy, for me bliss is looking into your eyes, kissing your soft cheeks. Bliss is holding your tiny hands and feet. Bliss is hearing you breath, seeing you smile....
