Respect, gratitude
All needed
Felt
With a sincere attitude.
Let love hold you safe
Feel secure
In arms
That envelope you.
Know
In the morning
Late at night
You’re not alone.
You have
A saviour, a protector
A guiding light
Holding you.

Solely, I Miss the heart that beats
Leaving behind a foggy mist
Never to dissipate.
Answers few, mostly none
Moving forward
Emotions on the run.
Embrace and hold
Respect and see
Loving you meant loving me.

I thank those of you
Who treated me
In my ‘Blond’ time
With respect and dignity.
And for those
Who laughed
And ridiculed
I thank you too.
For you have let me see
There are beautiful people
In this world
And ones filled
With misery.
You have a place
Here in this world
But it is nowhere
Near or part of me.

Dear sweet friend
How blessed
I be
To know and love
A friend like thee.
Dear sweet friend
No judgement
Ever do I feel
Only love, respect
And dignity.
Dear sweet friend
I hope to be
The same for you
As you have been
To me.

Take respect
And let it be
Part of my world
Forever be.
