for the first time
in my life.
That I am loved.
That I am sweet,
caring,
even beautiful.
Thank you for saving me
from a fate worse than death;
Thank you for saving me from
Emptiness.
Not BloodThey say
home is where the
heart is.
Home is where
your family is.
Where you love one another.
But what if you don’t have love?
What are you left with
in that big, cold building?
What is there
to live for?
All that remains
is a house
full of people
that simply happen
to be related.
That is not what a family
is.
A family
is a group of people
who love each other
who would die for each othe
rwho would give anything
to be with eachother.
It has nothing to do with blood.
Love is what keeps us going.
Not blood.
Love is what keeps us
alive.
Not blood.
And love is what fills our bodies
what pours out of out hearts
and keeps us going.
Not blood.
It has nothing
to do
with blood.
Little Things Like This
Hugs goodnight
kisses goodbye
ice-cream for dessert
with homemade pie.
Games after school
someone always winning
with the family on Christmas
add friends on Thanksgiving.
Incentives for good
Punishments for bad
making wishes on stars
for things you’ve never had.
Snowmen in the winter
with big sloppy smiles
everyone is laughing
and having fun all the while.
Love the good that you’re given
take the bad with a laugh
for you never know who
doesn’t have what you have.
Give what you can
it doesn’t matter how small
for a little is a lot
to those who have nothing at all.
