Blame me if you must
Truth will wait a bit longer
‘Til you are ready
Think about what you’ve done
And what’s right will speak to you
Regardless, I’m here
Supporting without judgement
Because I love you

O’ My Youngest One
O’ my youngest one
Do not give up on your dreams
They are yours alone
Others may think they know best
Even I am not immune
Done without malice
My intentions are most pure
Though I am human
Dare to dream my precious child
This is where greatness is born
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Silence
Silence does not mean I don’t care.
Perhaps I’m stifling a self-righteous opinion
Or maybe I’m just listening like a good friend does.
I don’t have all the answers nor are any required.
Your questions are rhetorical,
Simply statements to self,
You already know the answers.
It isn’t my place to judge,
Only to offer advice when asked for it,
My judgemental days are over.
I don’t walk in your shoes,
I don’t feel what you feel,
I haven’t lived your life,
Struggled your struggles,
Traveled your rutted path.
Instead I offer my silence
…As a show of love and support.

Fear Not (Haiku)
Fear not, my dear friend
I will be with you always
In eternity

Please look no further
I’ve always been here from you

Committed
By D. R. DiFrancesco
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your tired eyes look skyward
Begging for comfort without so much as a word
I reach out to you
Cradling you in an embrace born of affection
Expecting nothing in return
Your head resting on my chest
Can you feel my heart beat to your touch
Like a metronome keeping rhythm with your own
Exchanging words without speaking
I can hear your sadness and sense your pain
What can I do to relieve your tortured soul
Provide for you
Offer understanding without judgement
Reassure your lingering doubts
Hold tightly to your trembling hands
I will wade with you through the melancholy tide
You will not be left alone to drown
I am here to keep you afloat when you cannot swim
Don’t be afraid my love
For I will never leave your side
My commitment is eternal
Success – Haiku
By D. R. DiFrancesco
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hiding in shadows,
Scared of seeing the real you,
For fear of failure.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Draw on your beauty,
The lighthouse that will guide you,
To a brighter day.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Be strong little one,
Your essence makes you unique,
In all the world.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To strive for greatness,
Means sometimes you will stumble,
Rising to the top.
