Long Distance Love

How do you wait

At least 3 years

For a possible soul mate

But have no fears

For you, I open my gate

And wish that you were here

But you live in another state

Yet another reason to fear

But I fear because I care

And I care because I love you

It's a kind of love that is rare

And shared by very few

My love, in every form, is undying

And to lose you in anyway, would mean I'm dying

You are a gift greater than everything

And for you, I'll do anything

I'll wait for you, over these next few years

And together we'll overcome our greatest fears

Our One Star

Look at the stars tonight

As we see the same light

And in that moment

It will be alright

If you miss a falling star

I'll catch it for you

Keep it in my heart

And we can share it too

Keep holding on

As life goes along

Pain is short-lived

As you are so strong

I will hold your hand

And look in your eyes

But it is only then

That our star will shine.

Far Away Lovers

I lay in my bed and think about you

I love you so much I don't know what to do

I feel your warmth at my side

The pain in my heart moves to my eyes

So far away yet always so near

You are the reason I am still here.

I await the times when we can talk

I await the times we can finally hold hands and walk

To feel you for real... so close to me

The happiest person in the world is what you would make me.

Your eyes shine like a million suns

You shine more brightly than anyone

Your smile so sweet can help but make me smile

It stops my world even for a little while

I await the time when my hand is in yours

To hear you say those 3 little words.

There are still no words I can say to describe

My heart it aches and my eyes they cry

But when we talk my heart flies

you always wipe away the tears I cry.

Even thought you aren't here

And I miss you so much my dear

I'll love you forever and ever

I'll always love you my far away lover.

This Love

I love you.

Which is why you must go.

If indeed,

this love is to be,

I will surely know.

When sleepless nights keep you awake,

and you know letting go was a mistake.

You shall return to me then,

and we will be together again.

Why It Has To Be You

Sitting alone and silently

I recall a special part of my life

That part came unexpectedly

And lasted only for a while.

My life has been quite and peaceful

Until that unforgettable moment

You came like a silhouette of my soul

Then you walked right through my heart.

Everyday was a picture of happiness

There's no hint of loneliness

Everything was wonderful

Because I spent it with you.

But then, as time goes by

Feelings begin to fade away

Tears fall down one by one

And it kills me to say goodbye.

Every time my mind says move on

my heart says hold on

So many questions inside my head

But the answers are all up to you.

Loving someone like you

Without boundaries

Makes me think deeply again,

Why, Why it has to be you?

Lost Love

The most amazing moment was when we met

The love and time I have shared with you

have all been; without regret...

In spite of our love...

I am painfully aware

That you are gone,

And no longer there..

You made up your mind and you went away..

as things started to not feel right...

I know it's pointless to wish for you to stay..

because at the end of the tunnel there is no more light

Often I don’t know what to say or do..

So many times, I have cried over you...

Emptiness and sorrow is now a part me,

Since I have to accept, that we will never be..

BUT

Our memories continue to live in my heart

As I wish you well, with your brand-new start

Please, believe me when I say

You will always be with me

Come What May

Ashes In My Eyes

When the sun starts to fade

No I won't give in, cause your

face still remains

and your soul is in beneath my skins.

Your body is next to mine,

yet your heart was

never mine, it still belong to someone

so you will remain ashes in my eyes.

No your hands could never be mine, but

my heart is all yours all the time, how could you

be mine, when your

not meant to be mine.

oh I wish I was the one

who's always with you all

the time, never I mind the

imperfections between you and

I, but you will still remain ashes in my eyes.

We Sailed On With Happy Hearts

The Harbor wind's song played on in our hearts

As we bobbed in our baby dinghy in the blue bay,

All summer long we sailed on with happy hearts.

Sporadic clouds peeled shadows off dockhand carts:

We thrilled in trills of gulls and terns above the bay.

The harbor wind's song played on in our hearts.

We were skippers of our dinghy, sporting our parts.

Tack port! No, starboard! Buoy, port side bow! Oy vey!

All sea sun long we sailed on with happy hearts.

Cool breezes blew our dinghy to coves across the charts;

We sifted winded sails, sipped wine all winsome day.

The harbor wind's song played on in our hearts.

The sun tumbled: we tacked for clubs past marts

And feasted on mariners' tales of a bygone day.

All misted moon long we sailed on with happy hearts.

We reveled in rhythmic peals of mast slapping halyards

And lapping ripples mooring mirrored lights in the bay.

The harbor wind's song played on in our hearts;

All misted moon long we sailed on with happy hearts.

There's No Obscurity

As I gaze into his liquid gold eyes,

Poetry radiates from his warm soul

His lips brush mine and I soar through the skies

Passion seizes me; I loose my control

An amalgam of thoughts pierce through my mind

There is love, trust, yet I feel petrified

I know destiny; our fate’s intertwined

But what if he’s a dream, one I’m denied?

A thousand years I could spend with those suns

Amid his presence I’ve conquered all realms

I’ve witnessed beauty that forever stuns

And have basked beneath his forest of elms

Then and there, I grasp truth with clarity

He’s in my arms; there’s no obscurity

A Day Without You

A day without you is a day without Hope!

A day without you is a day without Happiness!

A day without you is a day without Existence!

A day without you is a day without the Sun!

A day without you is a day without Warmth!

A day without you is a day without a kind Word!

A day without you is a day without Laughter!

A day without you is a day without Kindness!

A day without you is a day without A Friend!

A day without you is a day without Love!

Loving You

today a drummer boy told me you are falling in love with me

or was it your heart beating when I kissed the bosom of thee

it was the time when the Nox was at her young

and I was kissing you and its silence who sung

in the midst of the dark

I held you tight in Hyde's park

you were truly looking something

like an angel spreading her wing

I felt it is not the beauty for which I should love you

it is not the quality at all for what I must trust you

but is thou's way of giving love

and the way you want to be loved

whilst I kissed you from top to toes

your soft body felt like a winter rose

Oh so soft, as one can be

softness that was never earlier felt by me

I drank wine every time I kissed your lips

you tried to speak but they only lisp

I wished from heart to keep loving you

till the sun shower snow & eternity will be new

When The Storms Come Around

Should you find yourself at the captain's helm,

as everyone around you is jumping ship.

Do not lose your stride.

Do not miss a step.

Because I will be right beside you,

braving the storm.

As the cruel dark clouds loom just above the bow,

and the torrential rains begin to fall.

Your nerves may get the best of you,

but that is perfectly natural.

All you must do is reach out and take my hand.

I will calm those panicked thoughts

causing your mind to spin.

I will stand at your side through hurricane force winds,

and together we'll be able to keep our footing.

Life may attempt to send us to the ocean depths,

but together we will survive this hellish night

to see the sun again.

I haven’t written a poem,

Since the last time I was hurt,

I haven’t written a poem,

Since my heart was ready to burst,

But now you got me writing,

Not because I’m sad,

Now you got me writing,

About things I never had,

I never had someone call me,

And tell me they care for me,

I never had any one,

Just stop and stare at me,

And tell me that I’m pretty,

Even when I looked bad,

And tell me that I’m sexy,

And tell me to never be sad,

I’ve written you these poems,

So you would know how I feel,

I want you to know I want you,

And I want you to know I’m real.

What I Love About You

The sparkle in your eye,

The warmth of your skin.

Your breath on my neck,

That shakes me within.

The touch of your hand,

The smell of your hair.

The naughtiness in your smile,

That strength in your stare.

Your kiss on my lips,

Your body near mine.

The stroke of your touch,

That feeling inside.

The Compassion in your embrace.

The power in your face.

The beating of your heart.

That we may never part

The beauty of your kiss,

and that magic in your touch.

It is for all these reasons and more,

Why I love you so much

Soul Mates

What ever happened to us when did we end?

How long ago did I consider you a friend?

The pain in my heart has turned into fear.

I can't imagine life without you near.

I have known all along I love you too much.

I smother you and long for your touch.

I try to hide how much you mean to me.

Like a caged bird you want to be free.

I should have had other friends and interests too!

My friends I left so I wouldn't be away from you.

I guess I just need that one best friend to confide.

That friend that no matter what would be by my side.

I should have known that you wouldn't be.

You would never be that friend to me.

I shouldn't have allowed it to go on this long.

When I look in your eyes I see I was wrong.

I tried to force you to think like I do.

I wasn't a very good friend to you!

Summer In The City

Yes, it’s summer in the city,

All the girls are pretty,

And I think it’s such a pity you’re not here.

The ice creams awfully melting,

Crowds bellowing and shouting,

The sky is effervescent and clear.

Summer in the moonlight,

Keeps me warm until the twilight,

But your arms are missing round’ my waist.

The choir in my footsteps,

Left me bound and broken,

Tell me why your presence brings me grace.

Summer in the raindrops,

Those cleansing little raindrops,

Makes me think of why I even fret.

For you I will be dancing,

The girls I’ll be romancing,

Thinking your name all the while they get me wet.

Yes, it’s summer in the city,

All the girls are pretty,

But now I’m getting shitty I’m alone.

Heart Broken And Confused

My heart feels like it’s torn in two,

Why can't I just be with you?

Everyday another tear,

Everyday a lot more fear.

I want to hold you in my arms,

I want to keep you safe from harm.

I act like things are all okay,

But I really want to run away.

I act like things are all alright,

But always end up in a fight.

I cry more tears than I can count;

Why won't they just let me out?

I tell myself these things won't stay,

But I don't think they'll go away.

Me And You

Me and You

Against the world

You're my man

And I'm your girl

Holding on tight

Because it all seems right

You and me

Under the stars at night.

Me and you

Have been through a lot

But through it all

Our love didn't stop

We held each other down

Until the end

And never let anything

Rush us to the end.

Me and you

Against the world

You're my man

And I'm your girl.

Valentine

A wish for you

on this Valentine's Day

that you'll take time to laugh

and maybe to play,

just bury the blues

let go your worries

do something happy

and giggle in flurries,

run in the forest

hug a small child

grin at the clouds

and do something wild,

just for this day

be perfectly free

for that is the way

you were meant to be,

watch how your magic

blossoms in wonder

as lightning flashes

in evening thunder,

and know in your heart

come what may

I send you my blessings

this Valentine's Day.

Why Me?

Why me?

the one who thought he loved her

Why me ?

the one who thought he cared

Why me?

the one who loved him

Why me?

the one who cared about him?

Why me?

the one who let herself be fooled

Why me?

the one with the broken heart

Why not him?

the one who crushed my heart
