This poem opened my eyes in so little words and put all my feelings into one place. I have to be grateful he is only gone 2 years, if it was a day longer I don't know what I would do. I don't get to visit him, and if he gets judicial release then he gets out in August of 2011. There is not a minute that goes by that I am not thinking about him. There is no feeling in this world that can amount to how much I miss him and love him. He asked me to marry him after he left, but when you love someone so much you just know. I am 19 and my fiancé has been in prison for almost three months, and we have 19 months to go. Be strong for you and them and keep your promise if you say you'll wait because that's what keeps them going.<3 I hate it, but what I realized is the more we all stress about our loved ones that have gone away the more miserable it makes us. And when I do it's only for an hour every couple weeks and that time flies by way to quick. I told him I will wait for him because I love him and he feels the same. I don't know what I'm going to do without him for the next two years and seven months. He left a week ago and the first week tore me apart. But I'm glad to say the last little bit of time before he left we made the most of it. I wish I never fought with him like I did. The stress of knowing he was leaving made us both snap at each other and I regret it with all that I am. We started dating about five months ago and a day or two after dating I found out he was going to jail for up to five years. Me and my best friend fell in love a while back. their dad!! I love him with all my heart and plan to spend the rest of my life with him. I just want the best for my children so they can live happy, healthy and loving lives. Reassurance that you want them and only them is important. A man in prison believes that they have lost you or will lose you. It takes a good woman and man to keep a strong relationship. My babies help me get through my days although it is a lot of work and takes even more patience. I am raising 2 children, one child was 16 months and the other was only 4 weeks old when he was incarcerated. He has nobody to hug for comfort and he can't show his emotions. The cold hard steal and concrete is all that surrounds him. I imagine how it feels for him all the time. He is such an amazing, charismatic father and supportive, protective lover. I dream about my man and our children sharing love and laughter. If he doesn't, I don't what I'm gonna tell the kids, and it sucks 'cause I went through the same thing with my dad when I was there, so I know how they feel.įor any women out there who says they can't do it, look up and pray. We're waiting to hear if he gets paroled or not. This will be the second Christmas he has missed. They tell me all the time they miss their dad. One day I'll be happy and the next I'm crying. Now that he's gone I feel everything, and let me tell you, it sucks. He was my drug he numbed everything for me. He's the one who always picked me up when I was down. It seemed like my world fell apart for a long time. At first I was so angry, hurt, lost, heart broken.
The song hits home and holds TRUTH for all of us!įebruary 12, 2015, my man got out in Washington county from RTP program. Watch this video, Lyfe Jennings - Must Be Nice. God bless the men inside and their ride or die women out here holding it down for them. These stories and poems make me realize I am not alone. I pray every day for this to go well and for him to be out in January like his attorney claims. I will wait for him till the end of time. remain true, don't cheat and never look for comfort in another man. I will stand by him through this no matter what, I always have and always will. I miss him more than I could ever explain. If convicted, he could do 5 1/2 years to 26 years, depending on the outcome. Judge revoked bond, claiming he is a flight risk because he is in Washington state and his home is here on the East Coast. I am 15 years older than my fiance serving time in a county jail in the state of Washington awaiting arraignment in January on Class A felony charges for a crime he was falsely accused of committing.
