My Beautiful Sky

Mon, 23 Dec 2024 11:00:00 +0000

I know you can't hear me But I want to tell you What lies ahead For us

People won't understand you They'll label you as troublesome They'll keep telling you to try harder They'll make you angry because they think it's funny

They'll cast you out And drift away And you will feel like there's nowhere that you can belong

You'll twist yourself into a bizarre shape Not you, not anyone A perversion of what you think others want Never quite what you want to be

You're going to get tricked and betrayed Hurt and abused You'll end up feeling so hopelessly alone You're going to want to give up so many times Before you finally see what you've been missing

You're going to find the person inside you That you will love with all your heart A person you will proudly show on your outside every day, without reservation

You will embrace what you love Your interests, your passions And find the people that accept them That accept you

It's going to take a lot of pain A lot of loss, a lot of heartbreak But one day, you will know acceptance You will know belonging

You will hear your voice and love it You will see the real you in the mirror And finally be able to say without reservation or doubt

I love you My Beautiful Sky

I Am Still Here

Mon, 02 Dec 2024 11:00:00 +0000

I fell to pieces Crushed under the weight of life

I didn't know what to do Lost Scared Alone

I wanted to end it all to give up to bleed my life away

But I am still here

I didn't carry on for anyone else to finish some project for the sake of responsibility

I am here

for ME

I am growing and I won't give up on that I am finally me And I will live to be me

I am beautiful and bright I am Sky Starlight

And I am still here

Hand Out Smiles

Thu, 19 Sep 2024 10:00:00 +0000

A small smile can make all the difference

That tiny ray of light might not seem like much to a world full of sunshine but to a world shrouded in shadow it means everything

Just a small smile

There's no way to tell who needs a smile so why not give them to everyone?

Just a simple smile

So let's hand them out to everyone we see and make the world a brighter place

New Words

Thu, 29 Aug 2024 10:13:14 +0000

We were built differently We work in ways that so many don't understand So they called us names

Weird Creepy Disgusting Wrong Broken Burden

They said those words Over and over and over Until we believed them We started calling ourselves that

But they're wrong We are not broken We are not burdens No, we are

Kind Trusting Loving Silly Beautiful Special Different

If they can keep saying all those mean words Then why can't we say all those kind words?

Let's use new words to describe who we really are And keep using them over and over again until we believe them

It's Time to Be Me

Thu, 27 Jun 2024 10:00:00 +0000

How long have I lived for others? How long have I tried to fit in?

I push down my wants and needs I ignore my own feelings I put on a mask so everyone else will accept me

How far back does it go? How long have I been afraid?

I had questions I never asked Feelings I never expressed Options I never explored all so I wouldn't be laughed at

I don't know how long I may never know But I accept myself now So I'm finished pretending

It's time to be me

The Wonderful Thing About Sky

Thu, 16 May 2024 10:00:00 +0000

The wonderful thing about Sky She's a wonderful, wonderful thing Her heart's made of stardust Her soul's made of spring She's a kind and loving, warm and caring beautiful magical girl! But the most wonderful thing about Sky is she's the only one in the world!

My Baby Boy

Thu, 25 Jan 2024 11:00:00 +0000

From the moment I held you I loved you with all my heart I promised that I'd do my best Even though I was so lost

Days turned into years You changed so fast The little boy I knew Has grown into a young man

We may argue and yell We so rarely agree But that will never change how much I love you

I see the best and worst of you Holding you always in my heart No matter how you change I'll always love you, my baby boy

Now you're leaving me Seeking a life you can't have here It breaks my heart to see you go But I know deep down, this is for the best

Thinking of what's best for you Even when it doesn't include me Rips out my heart But that's what it means to be a parent

I'll always be there for you I promise that now and forever I know this won't be goodbye Just the start of a new chapter

I hope this journey helps you grow I hope you find what you're looking for Know that I'll be here waiting for you And loving you always, my baby boy

Love, Loss, Sky

Thu, 28 Dec 2023 11:00:00 +0000

Love It came and went but the love I have for me will never fade Loss A beautiful soul taken away by life His memory will never fade

Sky That's me That's who I was always meant to be and that will never fade

Year Another one has passed I've loved and lost But in the end I am me

I am Sky

Who You Really Are

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 11:00:00 +0000

It’ll take days, months, years To search and discover who you are You may find out in your backyard Or you may have to travel quite far When you finally figure it out Many people may disagree They’ll tell you that you’re wrong That that isn’t who you’re supposed to be

But no one else in the whole world Has exactly your life or your voice Other people don’t know the real you The person you are isn’t their choice

Always remember that you are beautiful one in a million, a golden star so please don’t let anyone stop you from being who you really are

I Said Yes

Thu, 02 Nov 2023 10:00:00 +0000

When I was asked to care for you I didn't think I'd be able to I had a lot going on But I still couldn't say no

You were excited or sleeping There was no in between Even when your energy was too much I still couldn't say no

For the innumerable times when you were there Exactly when I needed a friend Cuddling me when I was sad or sick I'm so glad I said yes

Even though you're gone And there's a hole in my life I look back on our time with love and joy Forever grateful that I said yes

The Happiest Puppers
