Friends that discriminate
Circumstances that kept us apart
And those people who broke our hearts
The feelings that I was scared to show
The ones that you always made known
The good times and the bad,
[newpage]
The happy and the sad
You never gave up even when I would
You never let go even though I said you should
You said you love me and I believe its true
And now I just need to say,
Baby I love you too
As the days went by I began to find
[newpage]
That this feeling inside was one I could no longer deny
You amaze me in every way
You continuously take my breath away
You know me better then I know myself
It's as if I'm a book,
That you have read inside and out
You know when I'm happy, and when I'm sad

I've never been the type to say what I feel
So basically I keep everything inside
And with you it was no different
I want to tell you, believe me I've tried
But there's part of me that just can't take that chance
[newpage]
So I doubt that you'll ever know
Which may be fine with you, but it's hurting me
I choose not to show it though
I guess I'm your secret admirer
That name seems to fit just right
I don't know what I like about you
But you're on my mind, day and night
[newpage]
Maybe it's the way you look
So sexy I can't get enough
Or how you make me feel when you come around
I instantly forget all other stuff
Maybe it's the way you say my name
Or maybe it's the way you smile
Then again it might just be everything

Waiting in the rain, a cold winter night.
Inhale, exhale. Calm as I am.
Hair blowing in the wind.
Somebody take my hand.
My eyes they close;
As I breathe in deep
You run through my mind
And my life is complete.
[newpage]
I open my eyes
But your still not there
No one could take your place.
With you my heart I share
A cold afternoon,
Hands as cold as ice
Thoughts go through my mind
My feelings are concise
Lying in your arms
We are the perfect match
The distance is discouraging
Yet still I am attached

Wondrous Moment
The wondrous moment of our meeting . . .
I well remember you appear
Before me like a vision fleeting,
A beauty's angel pure and clear.
In hopeless ennui surrounding
The worldly bustle, to my ear
For long your tender voice kept sounding,
For long in dreams came features dear.
[newpage]
Time passed. Unruly storms confounded
Old dreams, and I from year to year
Forgot how tender you had sounded,
Your heavenly features once so dear.
My backwoods days dragged slow and quiet —
Dull fence around, dark vault above —
Devoid of God and uninspired,
Devoid of tears, of fire, of love.
Wondrous Moment

I try to remember exactly what it is that I fear.
Is it the passing of time or the love that I lack?
Is it the mistakes that I've made or the fact that I can't bring the past back?
What is it that I'm afraid of?
Why am I so scared?
[newpage]
Is it the people I've hurt or the people that have hurt me?
Am I afraid of everything that I cant seem to see?
Is it the love of a friend, or the loss of my family?
Is it the possibility that my life can end in a tragedy?
What is it that I fear most?

What do my eyes say I'm scared of?
Is it the sun that sets but won't seem to rise?

Is it me?

Although he could not say with words
The love he felt inside
He treasured every moment
And his heart would fill with pride
He never said I love you
But he came to every game
Even in defeat his son knew
He loved him just the same
[newpage]
He'd pat him on the head
Or maybe ruffle his hair
And tell him he was proud of him
As long as he played fair
When he graduated college
I love you wasn't said
He smiled as he shook his hand

Sleepin' in your arms
Feelin' safe from harm
Impatiently I wait for the day
That I don't have to see you go away
Years have come and gone
Yet our love has held on strong
The time has come
For us to finally be one
You are my true lover and best friend,
[newpage]
My soul mate and companion to the end
I hope to keep you happy
Never getting too serious or sappy
Your eyes that sparkle and shine,
That excites me knowing your love is mine
We both have hurt and cried
The love for each other never died
Sleepin' in your arms
Feelin'... | I love the way you tell me that I’m beautiful,
and the way you make me laugh like no one else.
I love the way you move the hair away from my eyes,
and then kiss me on my face.
I love the way when you take me to the park
[newpage]
and put your hands around my waist
as we watch the sunset together and feel the ocean breeze.
I love the way you'd sing to me at random moments,
and look at me and smile.
I love the way you leave the smell of your cologne on my clothes after we hug
[newpage]
I love the way you would send me my favorite flowers
along with an " I LOVE YOU" card.
I love the way you speak your mind and tell me about your opinions.
I love the way you're not afraid to cry and show your feelings.
I love the way you call me in the middle of the day just to say " I LOVE YOU."
[newpage]
and say how much you miss me.
I love the way you tell your friends about me and smile when you do.
I love the way you whisper into my ear,
the way your voice sounds so close to me.

I love the way you do all of these and the fact that you're not ashamed to do it.
I love the way you tell me... |
You invaded my private world with your beautiful smile and understanding heart,
And I wondered to myself that you were different right from the very start.
You listened without judgment to what I had about me to say,
[newpage]
And even after I was done with the good, the bad, the ugly you still didn't run away.
We developed a friendship with trust, with no walls to build or guard,
We decided to leave the past behind and step into the good that could be no matter our discomfort or how hard.
[newpage]
I've grown to love you with no hidden agenda or false pretense but with only the real me,
Letting you get to know about me what most people never see.
I'm writing this to you for you to understand,
That spending time with you is so precious I never want to let go your hand.
[newpage]
The time that we spend apart cannot equal when we are together,
I miss you oh too much but when we meet again will be so much better.
Our time apart for me helps me see that you are what I have for many years been missing in my life,
A woman that is beautiful, and kind, and understanding,
[newpage]
and loving, you are the woman I wished I would have met and been together long ago, and made you my wife.
But the past is the past, and the future is what we do with each moment now,
Let's make each moment we are together count and overshadow the past,
