“I’ll Be Your Legacy” a Poem

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin, 

St Augustine, Florida

I’ll be your Legacy

I’ll be your Voice

You live on in Me

So I’ve made the Choice

To honor your Life

By sharing your Art

To encourage and

 Give Hope 

To the Lonely-in-Heart

I love you

I miss you

I’ll see you Again.

“Talking to the Wild” - Poem

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin

Daytona Beach, Florida 2016

She sat at the back and they said she was shy

She led from the front and they hated her pride

They asked her advice and then questioned her guidance

They branded her loud then were shocked by her silence

When she shared no ambition, they said it was sad

So she told them her dreams and they said she was mad

They told her they’d listen then covered their ears

And gave her a hug whilst they laughed at her fears

And she listened to all of it thinking she should

Be the girl they told her to be best as she could

But one day she asked what was best for herself

Instead of trying to please everyone else

So she walked to the forest and stood with the trees

She heard the wind whisper and dance with the leaves

And she spoke to the willow, the elm and the pine

And she told them what she’d been told time after time

She told them she felt she was never enough

She was either too little or far, far too much

Too loud or too quiet, too fierce or too weak

Too wise or too foolish, too bold or too meek

Then she found a small clearing surrounded by firs

And she stopped and she heard what the trees said to her

And she sat there for hours not wanting to leave

For the forest said nothing, it just let her 

breathe

Costa Rica - “Near to the Brokenhearted”

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin, Costa Rica

Loving Memory 

I shall 

Gather up 

All the lost souls 

That wander this earth

All the ones that are alone

All the ones that are broken 

All the ones that are weary

And contrite In spirit.

“Come to me, all you who are weary

And burdened, and I will give you rest,

Take my yoke upon you

And learn from me,

For I am gentle and humble in heart,

And you will find rest for your souls.

For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Matthew 11:28-30

“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted

And saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

Psalm 34:18 

“Unforgivably Herself” a Poem

 

Crystal Michelle Fallin 

Auburndale, Florida 2016

Unforgivably Herself

In her time

And in this place,

She was unforgivably herself,

Full of flaws, beauty,

Chaos and imperfection,

For these are the things

That made her the most real,

And the things that

Are real in this world

Are the things that

Are loved the most…

“Her True Everlasting Beauty”

 Crystal Michelle Fallin with her

Grandma Mary, Columbus, Georgia

October, 2018

Beautiful is just something she is,

The part of her that

People saw at first glance,

But her true everlasting beauty 

Was in in her depths…

“In the Mist of My Memory”

Crystal Michelle Fallin

Grand Lake, Colorado, 2012

And, there 

In the mists of my memory 

I see you. 

And, there 

In the mists of my memory 

You shall always be.

“Spellbound” by Emily Brontë - Crystal Beauty in Winter

Crystal Michelle Fallin

St. Augustine, Florida - Winter 2018

Spellbound

By Emily Brontë

The night is darkening round me,

The wild winds coldly blow;

But a tyrant spell has bound me

And I cannot, cannot go.

The giant trees are bending

Their bare boughs weighed with snow.

And the storm is fast descending,

And yet I cannot go.

Clouds beyond clouds above me,

Wastes beyond wastes below;

But nothing drear can move me;

I will not, cannot go.

Happy Valentine’s Day Crystal Belle - “ My Love Never Ends”

Crystal Michelle Fallin age 21

My Beloved Daughter

 January, 2006

It took an instant

To loss you,

And it will take

My entire LIFETIME

To grieve the loss of you.

GRIEF never ends because

LOVE never ends,

I will love you,

And ache for you

Until my very last breath.

By Angela Miller
