To My Husband to Be…. “When you find me”

Sharea Farmer, LCSW

I love how God works just when you least expect it, he shows up and in this case he showed off…  I had almost conceded that this was not my season for love outside of God, family and friends.  Then God went and inserted “Al-Lateef Farmer” here; with “here” being my heart.   So here goes…Long before the October night; when you gave up your spot so I could see Mos and Talib hit the stage.  Long before the November evening; where Stevie Wonder played in the background as we sat in the car and talked well into the night.  Long before the January afternoon; I came to pray for … Continue reading To My Husband to Be…. “When you find me”

Desperate

Sharea Farmer, LCSW

A desperate attempt to make poetry out of you. We greet each other like strangers. We have nothing to discuss, outside of what happened to us. Tired of discussions that turn into arguments “about what was done right and what was done wrong.” We barely speak or see each other as “home.” I promise you that I have searched             and searched all night trying to recall the words I used to describe you             when we first met. Believing that maybe those words would help me get      that feeling of love back. I questioned how             I framed … Continue reading Desperate

Love Letter II A response to your letter won’t take me very long. I have remained the same. Was that not my promise? My love, you have always been. When I captured your heart you already had mine. So that if you left me, No matter your struggle, my love would be your guide. I know you wanted nothing more than to return. Yes I watched you as you replaced me with other people and material things. But I sent my love letter to you Hoping that you would never forget That I am God: Your Heavenly Father, Creator, Lord … Continue reading Love Letter II

Love Letter I

Sharea Farmer, LCSW

Love Letter I I stumbled through the incomplete letters I wrote you over time. I could never explain or put my thoughts into words, the way leaving you made me feel. After you, I was lost and no love seemed real. Since my fear led me to believe that I had lost you. I wanted to start off small. So the thought came to me: I should start by completing a letter for the first time. Because in the past tears would stop me Only making more time pass. Let me start by saying it is amazing how your love … Continue reading Love Letter I

A Heart Captured

Sharea Farmer, LCSW

A Heart Captured I yearn for you in my thoughts. As if my mind has omitted all possible reasoning. When I see you I speak softly. Trying to hide my feelings such pain inside. You clearly maintain your stance. This is were you belong, you are not those other guys. I think to myself is this not my heart to keep closed and yours to leave alone? I try to shake loose your powerful grip. Stand firm to maintain my balance. And still you continue to reach out your hand. In hopes I extend mine. Is not this my moment … Continue reading A Heart Captured
