Her Cup Never Ran Dry
- By Bethny Ricks
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.
Rest. Keep leaning. Keep praying. Keep inhaling, and then find the courage to exhale.

These are the words that skipped through my tired mind 30 minutes ago. And all I heard back in my soul is “I see you, and I will refill your cup. My well never runs dry.”

in Faith Poems

no matter how weary
she kept pouring

but her cup never ran dry, for God

no matter how weary
she kept pouring

but her cup never ran dry, for God
renewed her strength daily, and
gave her a peace
beyond all understanding

You Are Enough
- By Bethny Ricks
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.
Along the way I have learned a tough lesson: even in my imperfection I am still worthy of love, someone’s time, and a consistent feeling of wholeness.
My value is not connected to perfection, strength, or my ability to weather a storm. Which means that even on those days when I struggle to show up or feel ill-equipped, I am still a woman of worth and value

in Inspirational Poems

You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough

You are enough
You have always been enough, and
You will forever be
Enough

no matter what you see
how you feel, or the lies you may
believe

The Girl I Used To Be
- By Stephanie Bennett-Henry
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Change Poems

Try as I may, try as I do,
there are days when I wish
I could go back
to the girl I used to be

Try as I may, try as I do,
there are days when I wish
I could go back
to the girl I used to be
and tell her about
all the roads to avoid.
But if I did that
I may not have become
the girl I am now,
and I am too proud of her
to risk taking even one piece
of her journey away.

You're Not Alone In This
- By Lauren Bowman
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Poems about Life Struggles

You’re not alone in this; you know that, right?
There are others like you.
Hiding. Running. Wishing
for a desire they keep hidden

You’re not alone in this; you know that, right?
There are others like you.
Hiding. Running. Wishing
for a desire they keep hidden
(but terrified of it coming true)
Swaying. Hoping. Begging
for change.
(but terrified of something new)
Hesitant but leaping.
Whole but looking for what they’ve lost.
Wanting the world to see them
but unsure of who they are.

Life Isn't Black And White
- By Lauren Bowman
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Short Poems

You can be unhappy and still be in love.
You can be in love and still walk away.
You can walk away and still feel the weight of loss.
You can feel the weight of loss and still stand tall.

You can be unhappy and still be in love.
You can be in love and still walk away.
You can walk away and still feel the weight of loss.
You can feel the weight of loss and still stand tall.
You can stand tall and still be grieving.
You can be grieving and still find joy.
You can find joy and still miss what you had.
You can miss what you had and still long
for more.

It's About The Journey
- By Lauren Bowman
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Meaningful Poems

How about sad but hopeful.
Lonely but looking inward.
Resting but planning your next step.

How about sad but hopeful.
Lonely but looking inward.
Resting but planning your next step.

How about fumbling but trying.
Anxious but learning patience.
Questioning but at peace with not having
an answer yet.

How about unsure but trusting.
Scared but overcoming.
Lost but knowing it’s about the journey
in the end.

I thought it was your light

I thought it was your light

Take Me To The Center Of Your Soul

in Falling in Love Poems

take me
to the center of your soul
show me where you hide
lead me to the forgotten wounds

take me
to the center of your soul
show me where you hide
lead me to the forgotten wounds
show me the other side

show me your broken pieces
and where it hurts the most
show me all of the scariest parts
introduce me
to your ghost

take me to all of the pain
let me dive into your darkest seas
take me to your secrets
let me walk through memories

take me back to desire
and lose me there forever
swallow me inside your heart
for I will leave there
never

one day
it will be so clear –
what you thought

one day
it will be so clear –
what you thought

just the beginning.

Some doors are hidden
until we are ready

I'm Busy Finding Me

I miss you in silence
And every moment in between
But I’m a little busy unfolding
Those pieces of who I used to be

I miss you in silence
And every moment in between
But I’m a little busy unfolding
Those pieces of who I used to be
I miss you at sunrise
Until it’s time to greet the moon
But darling,
Don’t you see,
I don’t miss you any less than yesterday
I’m just a little busy
Finding me.

One has to find themself, I agree, and not be totally reliant on somebody. I know because I was never allowed to live freely; now my independence I treasure dearly.

I Won't Settle For Anything Less Than You
- By Lorelei
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Falling in Love Poems

I want it all
The insanity
The good,
The bad,

I want it all
The insanity
The good,
The bad,
Your broken pieces too.
The sadness,
The laughter,
even the darkness in your light.
I want you wildly, madly in love
with all that I am, all that I have been
and everything I will become.
Give me your moon
and I’ll hang the stars
across the sky for you

because darling,
I won’t settle for anything less
than you.

I Will Want To Grow Old With You
- By Gemma Troy
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2021 with permission of the Author.
in Sweet Love Poems

You can take me on a holiday
but I prefer to sit at home
you can buy me chocolate and roses
but I just want your hand to hold

You can take me on a holiday
but I prefer to sit at home
you can buy me chocolate and roses
but I just want your hand to hold
you can dine me all night long
but I would rather lie under the stars
while we listen to our favourite song
you can give me jewels and gold
but if you find me a feather
with you
I will want to grow old
