By Viola Kathleen Bates

Through all the hell I went through God never left me, he just made me stronger to want to learn and achieve my goals and even though I raised my kids by myself after getting away from the abuse. My spirit was never broken, so no matter what happen in life dont give up and dont quit just remember it will get better and be strong dont let no one bring and be bring you down. I see miracles happen every day for I know me and my family are one. And I met someone 17 years ago fell in love, but it was good it scared him away and two weeks ago he found me again it was like we were never apart. He had been looking for me and asking everyone and we was all around each other in many areas but we never met until two weeks ago. He says he will never let me go nor I him. An answered prayer come true so never give up cause dreams do come true. Im a writer of Poetry Anthology.

Hello to everyone, my name is Viola, I was born in Athens, Tennessee. When I was a child, we were poor. My Dad was never around, so it was left up to my mom to raise my three sisters and brother by herself. She showed us how to make due with less and appreciate, everything and give thanks for what we received. We had no complaints, and as we grew up and married and moved away. One by one we stay in touch and were always there for each other through good and bad, and in my case my marriage was bad I was Christian when I went into this family. I could nt believe my eyes at the abuse not just physical but mental as well. I didn’t love him when I married but I did fall in love after words before the abuse started. I had two wonderful boys who almost died several times but by the grace of God they survived. I always said when I quit school and married at 14 years old, I lied for my age and said I was 15 I always said that when I got my boys raised it would be my time., and know it is. I said I would get my high School Diploma and at 44 years I did. I said I would have me a home of my own, and I do and I said I would start my own business one day and now I’m starting college.

True Love Without A Kiss

A dream of sitting, under a rainbow.

With the one I hold so dear. When I look

into his eyes, I feel so safe and secure.

From the gaze heís giving me, I can

feel his love staring back. To be in

love with someone, whom youíve never

kissed, is simply something else Best

friends, someone to talk to, and oh

he looks so good. His body is muscular,

arms and legs. Itís as if God made him

especially for me. Even though I never

thought it would be. True, until I

had a dream and there he was standing

at my door right before my eyes.

Speechless, astonished and amazed.

For then, I didnít know what to do.

For in this man, my dream was coming

true. It was like a rainbow, the colors

and goodness automatically shining

through. To show the love that glows

inside me, when he walks into a

room. Someday, somehow, someway,

we will have a kiss, that will

last, for hearts forever more. But

until then, I will be waiting as

a friend. My love for you will never

end. My future foretold, of us making

love, so mysterious, and yet so

unique. Fore we touched, you loved

it, when our hearts joined as one.

People can see the chemistry between

the two of us. Yet, we deny ourselves

and pull away. And still our friend-

ship is there to stay. I would do anything

for you, for the love inside of

me is true. I think about you all

the time. And itís a feeling, I canít

explain. How will I feel, so pure like

the blood running through my

veins. I donít know, what to do, but

take it one day at a time. and enjoy

every minute I can. Because you

or I know when these feelings

will end. To see you in my dreams

my friend. To where, I can love you

with no end.

Dreams

Walking along the shore, I dreamed

of footsteps in the sand. Wishing for

my Baby and me to be there hand in

hand. Thinking of a time our love run

so deep, like the water in the ocean and

the fish in the sea. Listening to the rhythm

of the waves on the beach, how beautiful

the sound of my Babyís voice is to me.

Our love is everlasting, and thatís the way

it should be. For God sent us together

me to you and you to me. A very

special feeling that grows down deep

inside. The love I feel for you is higher

than the skies. Woman was created by

the rib of man, to be by their side and

walk hand in hand. Love, Honor and Cherish

with love thatís so pure. A love thatís

everlasting, forever weill endure. Where

thereís Love, Peace, Happiness; thereís an

everlasting Joy! That will last through

eternity for richer or poorer. Dreams are

like wishes, they sometimes come true. And

as long as weíre together, all I need is

you!

Stand by Me

Sitting here alone writing words

to become a song. Trying to stay

positive, with my thinking. Wondering

if my dreams are coming true,

and if I can, shine like a star.

Loving someone very special even

though now I know it would be

wrong. Patiently awaiting for a kiss

that will bring life back to me.

Then Iíll know of my destiny.

Someone to stand by me, and help

me be strong, to love with no end,
