Fairy Name

Your fairy is called Thorn Goblinfrost
She is a bringer of riches and wealth.
She lives in brambles and blackberry bushes.
She is only seen during the first snow of winter.
She wears purple and green like berries and leaves. She has gentle green wings like a butterfly.

Whispered dreams.

*Joe*
I sat in a chair by Kandie's bed. Kandie lie asleep on her bed with a temperature, blankets were piled on top of her. I was beginning to worry about her, she got sick often. Much too often. I leaned forward, resting my elbows on my knees, letting my head fall into my hands. I listened to my girlfriend breath, and cough every once in a while, in her sleep. Her being sick didn't make me feel any better about being gone away from her in the military. I loved being in the Army, and I didn't like being away from Kandie as much as I was, but it was a choice I had made that I couldn't, and didn't, want to get out of. The only way I could keep Kandie with me while I was on base was to marry her but I couldn't do that. I was only eighteen years-old, and she only seventeen.
"Joseph."
I looked up at the sound of my name. Kandie was still asleep on her bed, she turned her head back and forth. "Joseph." She whispered again. I leaned over towards her.
"Kandie." I touched her shoulder. "Katherine, baby." I shook the girl as she muttered my name for the third time. "Baby, wake up." Kandie's eyes blinked open, her breathing was uneven. "Are you all right? You were talking in your sleep, honey." I placed my hand on the top of her head.
"A dream, Joe." Kandie said, looking up with me. "You were gone, and...and not coming back." She had tears in her eyes.
"Aw, honey, it's OK, I'm right here don't worry." I sat down on the side of her bed. "Go back to sleep, love. I'll be right here, I won't leave...for a while." I leaned down and kissed her forehead.
"Promise me, Joseph." Kandie whispered.
She was so sick she couldn't speak above a whisper, it hurt my heart. "I promise you, I'll stay here." I told her smiling. "Sleep, you need to get better." I waited until she closed her eyes, before again taking my seat in the chair.

Heartbeat


The up and down of the monitor,
Measures your heartbeat,
The heartbeat I grew to love,
Even though I never heard it,
Never got to press my hand
Against your chest
And feel the beating beneath the scar.
The many times that monitor went flat
Brings tears to my eyes,
And reminds me of the many  times,
I almost lost you,
And the time that it stayed flat
Never to return
Almost brings me to my knees.
I try to keep the tears inside,
And a smile on the surface
Because I know that’s what you want,
But sometimes it’s too hard
And I fail.

Poem For Chase

Tears are streaking down my face

No matter how bad he wouldn’t want them to.

My feelings grew for him,

Even when I knew they didn’t need to.

I didn’t know his feelings towards me…

Until he was gone.

I still, and forever will, love him.

He always told me not to worry about him

And I know he wouldn’t want me crying

The words “he loved you” keep coming back,

I don’t know why he didn’t tell me

And I won’t know until I meet him in Heaven.

The black bear is here next to me,

Just like he was in spirit ever since he left.

It hard for me to let him go,

To accept the fact that he is gone,

That I won’t get to talk to him again

On this earth anyway.

I don’t know how long that will be,

But as always I’ll try to be patient….

That’s one thing he taught me,

Patience.

 

 

Rest In Peace…My Chase.
