My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • The other night I laid and stared at your faceThe other night I sighed a deep sigh in your embraceThe other night I found myself wanting to defineWhether or not I am yours and you are mine. Before this began, I was content to be aloneBefore this began, I was happy for friendship to be the toneBefore this began, I was satisfiedOr so I thought, or so I tried. Now, I think of you all day Now, I want you in every wayNow, I…

  • You said you would be willing to tryWhen it comes time to say good-bye. You said you wouldn’t share,Does it mean that you really care? You’ve told me of your familyAnd I find myself listening to you happily. You allow for quiet moments to lingerProviding me with peace as I fidget with a finger. You hold me close without a wordSo that in just a short time, a night without you seems absurd.…

  • It’s because we’re adopted that we are rushing to love rushing to be loved rushing to fit in rushing to be accepted rushing to be known rushing, rushing before it slips away like our mothers like our fathers like our native land like our native language It’s because we’re adopted that we long to be loved to be accepted and to be allowed to just slow down… -T ~December 10, 2008

  • Each day passes taking me further away Yet a part of me wants to stay Close by just to see What might be. A look in the eye Brings a smile and a sigh For it’s quite a treat To feel something so sweet. What is this feeling? Is it too soon to be dreaming? How will I know if this is right? Will it be worth a fight? When I go Will…

  • A soft whisper A gentle touch A sweet caress Is all that I desire. A pleasant conversation A sharing of hearts A feeling of trust Is all that I need. A step closer A heartbeat away A sigh of contentment Is all that I hope. I desire a subtle sweetness that encaptures passion. I need both a best friend and a lover to trust. I hope for open arms to complete the circle…

  • There’s a hole in my heart the shape of you.There’s a sadness in my eyes that match you.There’s a loneliness that fills my soul that is part of you. All my life I have tried to find the love you gave to me.All my life I have avoided my deep aching for you to know me.All my life I have been wondering what is wrong with me. Do I look like you?Do I…

  • What is this feeling?What is this fear?What is this I both desire and dread? My heart remembers the painMy heart still feels the woundsMy heart longs for love I ache for tendernessI ache for a soft whisperI ache to trust My spirit cries outMy spirit longsMy spirit no longer wants to go alone Who can my heart beat for?Who can stop the aching?Who can protect my spirit? Are you willing to take my…

  • I haven’t had time to write on my story or anything, but lately I’ve been moved to write poetry again. It’s been a while … used to be something I did all the time and somehow I forgot or lost the poetry in my life. It seems it is starting to come back. I’m not saying it is good…not that it matters as writing is a window into one’s soul. A walk in…

  • Lexi felt a sense of pure joy as she looked at the end of the aisle and saw the man of her dreams standing and waiting for her. As their eyes met, they both smiled knowing that this was the beginning of the rest of their lives. She smiled as she recalled that magical day just 5 years ago. Now, they had a little two-year old boy who was the reason for being…

  • While some of you readers may be up-to-date with my blogging arenas, others may not. Therefore, I thought I would post here to say that I’ve updated the Blogger version of my travel blog for my trip to Korea last week. Enjoy the blogger version!!! -T
