Everything has a purposeTime is never wastedFor loving is a gift Everything has a purposePeople may come and goBut friendships are a gift Everything has a purposeWords are not lostIn conversations we find a gift Everything has a purposeA gentle touch is never unwantedKindness is a gift When we loveWhen we are friendsWhen we speak with othersWhen we touch one another It is a giftEverything has a purpose -T~December 29, 2008

Waiting…
My heart is on holdas each day passesWaiting… My mind racesas each day passesWaiting… Will my feelings turn cold?Will loneliness be what I have to face?For these answers, I am waiting… “Take your time”, I say,But waiting is making me, crayzay! -T~December 28, 2008

“The root cause of almost all people problems is the basic communication problem – people do not listen with empathy. They listen from within their autobiography. They lack the skill and attitude of empathy. They need approval; they lack courage.” When you listen, you transform a relationship by understanding another world view, thereby changing your own.

Too much?
Have I told you too much?Have I asked too much?Have I expected too much? My mind spins in circlesWondering if I’ve ruined all that is goodCausing you to run away… How do I stop myself from thinking?How do I stop myself from worrying?How do I stop myself from hurting? My heart beats rapidlyThinking of you and how you might be feelingHoping you’ll not run away… -T~December 26, 2008

For a Christmas Card
Getting to know you has been beyond wordsYou’re more than I wished forHow you make me feel seems almost absurd. As my breath catches at your touchAs my heart flutters at your smileMaking my mind stop from thinking too much. So little time has passed since we first went outYet through our friendship I feelI sort know what you’re about. What the future holds, I don’t knowBut I look forward to what may…

You… Is it true?
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.…

Slowing Down
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

Fresh
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…
