You Were My Soulmate They say you'll know when you've met your soulmate....and I knew. With one glance when our eyes would meet and I'd fall apart inside. His eyes would burn through my body, into my soul and I couldn't resist the overwhelming urge to allow myself to become completely at his mercy. When he spoke, I found myself mesmerised and hopelessly falling further for his charms. Then when his lips would gently touch mine, I could feel my heart beat blood through my entire body. When his hands held my face, he held me like he was handling something precious. Then as his breath followed his mouth from my lips to my neck, I felt like my legs would give way at any time. When we became one, I knew I would never feel this way with another because.... ....he was my soulmate and in this case, soulmates aren't for #life. A soulmate can come into your #life and show you a love you didn't know existed but you should be truly blessed because...it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all....xxxxxxxxxx

A Flower Love is like a flower. A flower requires sunlight, Make her smile and light up her world. A flower requires time, Show her patience and let her grow. A flower requires water, Drench her with kind and watch her blossom. A flower requires attention, Give her yours and she'll respond with hers. A flower requires understanding, Listen to her needs and she'll repay you with her beauty. And most importantly, if you find the girl that treats you the same way....then you'll find a love that will last as a love that grows.....never dies...xxx

but You Said.... but You Said you loved me.....then she stole your heart. You Said you'd never leave me....and now we are apart. but You Said I was the one.....then she ripped you from my hands. You Said I was your future....I'm now no longer in your plans. but You Said my laugh made you smile....then she warmed your heart with hers. You Said you'd be my husband....and we'd release those sacred white doves. but You Said you'd always catch me....then the one to make me fall. You Said you'd always be there....and I spent days waiting for that call. but You Said I was your princess....then she became your queen. You Said you'd protect me....all a forgotten dream. So as I stand alone, reflecting on the past. It's very clear to see...we were never going to last. x X x X x X x X x X x X x

Fine Blue Line' She came into my #life as a 'fine blue line'. My heart pounded in my chest so hard as I felt an overwhelming and terrifying fear that somehow it may be wrong. I hoped it wasn't wrong, I prayed it wasn't wrong. As the weeks went by, I knew I didn't need a test, doctor or scan to tell me....my princess was starting to grow and it was my job to make sure she was safe and protected. As time went by, I watched my body change and woke every morning excited to feel that acknowledgement from her in the form of a sharp nudge to confirm that I wasn't dreaming and that my baby was getting ready to come into my world. As the day we were due to meet imminently drew closer, I started to feel parts of her body inside me that made me realise I was actually growing a little person inside me. I will never forget how it felt when I would gently push what I know was the heel of her tiny foot just under my rib cage, as she would very abruptly retort with an almighty kick that would make any adult body jump out their skin. This gave me the reassurance I desperately craved for every day that told me she was ok. Nearly 9 months from the day of the 'thin blue line' in what felt like a heart beat, she sent some very abrupt messages to my body in what I can only describe as earth moving convulsions that let me know, she was on her way. Unlike most overdue expectant mothers, I didn't feel frustrated that we were 10 days past her due date, after all she was clearly demonstrating that she was her mothers daughter already....late for everything and I didn't expect anything less. As her arrival progressed I remember incessantly praying for her safe arrival. I felt pain but didn't feel scared, this is my job, I'm her mother and I have to get her here safely. As the intensity of the situation magnified, my body never gave up, she needed me and I needed her. I watched three concerned faces spectate with sympathy as they couldn't help, only I could do this and as time passed I did see relief in their face's as they knew I was ready for this challenge. Then when I felt I couldn't give anymore, I knew I had to find the energy for one final push with the incentive being that I was about to be acquainted with the person I created and would always give and receive unconditional love. I felt the baby I grew from a 'fine blue line' to a person leave my body and until I heard the customary 'new' baby cry, I couldn't exhale. I needed to hear that sound, where was that sound? Then what felt like hours later, my princess cried a piercing cry begging to return to her comfortable, dark and warm cocoon inside my body. The relief I felt reduced me to uncontrollable tears and then the midwife wrapped my princess and placed her gently in my arms. As I lay with my body completely destroyed, the tremendous pain I had just experienced completely vanished, I held a beautiful creation in my arms. I made her, I grew her, I delivered her, and until the day I die....I'm going to love and nurture her because my #life only truly became blessed the day I seen that 'fine blue line'. xxxxxxxxx x x x x
