And Just Like That

Moments of You

Tears welled up in your eyes

You looked at me and began to cry

Your voice so loud, your pain so real

I almost didn’t know what to feel

~

My heart was heavy

Frustrations grew strong

What just happened?

What went wrong?

~

The cries made me angry

They also made me sad

I felt so very helpless

Because so, I was mad

~

As the tears started to fall

Outlining those chubby cheeks

Your head began to tilt

And look back up at me

~

Your lips curled to a smile

Then you kicked your little legs

You suddenly looked happy

Instead of seeing red

~

You began to laugh

With giggles of such glee

And just like that you cured

Frustration inside of me

~~~

Pieces of Me ~ Poems by Heidi

In 2022, I came across a bin of my journals spanning many years. It was then that I realized I haven’t told people I enjoy writing or shared my work publicly. I decided to start.
