      Dear Daddy

      May 20, 2019

      Yours is the first face I saw when I came into the world. At first, I was scared. It was so cold and bright. But then I heard your voice. I remembered it immediately — warm, deep and comforting. I didn’t expect you to be so big. My whole body fits in

      Letters to Mum

      Mar 24, 2021

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      THE RESURRECTION IS EVERYTHING, ISN’T it? It’s a metaphor for the whole Christian life. Without it, what’s dead is just dead. Over. Finished. Buried forever. No hope of new life springing forth. But in Jesus, we have the promise that death is not the

      Poems Of The Universe - shawn king

      Today I asked a Question

      Today I asked a question I never thought to ask...

      I asked myself what do you need?

      I thought maybe he would say water or food or love From someone.

      But instead looking back at me in the mirror...

      He said to me...

      I do not need love from anyone but you.

      What have I done to you that you hate me so much?

      Did I do all those bad things to you?

      Why don't you love me?

      You have been nice to everyone else, why not me?

      Don't I matter?

      A tear fell from my eye, as I gently whispered...

      I love Me.

      A Part Of This Song

      I wake up, go to work,

      Put on a smile each day.

      Little does this world know that,

      I'm all ready gone,

      No longer part of this song.

      Where did it all go wrong?, they think.

      I'm happy that I'm OK,

      But little do they know, it's sad to say it,

      I'm already Gone.

      No longer part of this song,

      Where did it all go
