places

Do you know what’s important about finding a place,

Somewhere in time where your mind can unlace,

Where the beauty of visiting slows down the pace,

And the senses are exposed to a sharp ‘about face’ 

The point is well taken and called introspect,

A world all in harmony that is picture perfect,

A place drawn from visions like those seen as a kid,

Images that are breathtaking appear enchanted.

Nature and beauty that are right on the track,

Bring on the feeling…take up the slack,

Slow down the real world from inside the mind,

And reflect in the pleasure of eternal time.

It takes just one visit to want to go back,

To a place where there’s safty and not an attack,

Enjoying the moment and the feeling within,

Your life becomes peaceful and all genuine.

Worry and mind games and thinking too much,

Results in much clutter when used as a crutch,

Learn how to wind down and calm down instead,

Develop the eyes in the back of your head.

That place we all search for should be easy to find,

It’s created from images within our own mind,

Meditate on this vision and reside in that place,

A feeling of comfort … Pressure Erased 

  

souls

After a while you learn the subtle difference
Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
And company doesn’t mean security,

And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts
And presents aren’t promises

And you begin to accept your defeats
With your head up and your eyes open,

With the grace of a woman,
Not the grief of a child

And you learn to build all your roads on today,
Because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.

After awhile you learn that even sunshine
Burns if you get too much

So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul,
In stead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers

And you learn that you really can endure…
That you really are strong
And you really do have worth,
and you learn and learn…
With every good bye you learn.

you and me

you and me
pure destiny
forever meant to be.

 

immutable,
inseparable,
so unbelievable.

 

i’ve never told you
just how much i need
your every touch and sigh
so beautiful
so meaningful
so wonderful.

 

you’re everything i want
or have ever dreamed of
and i feel as if
i’ve been reborn
into a mystic universe
pulsing with your love.

 

don’t be afraid now
just hold me close
feel my heartbeat
walk in my soul
I will breathe
for the both of us.

 

bleed my last drop
bring forth a whole new day
love and die for you
whatever comes our way.

 

 

 

 

journey

 

 

 

 

The Road goes ever on and on

Down from the door where it began

Now far ahead the road has gone

And i must follow if i can

Pursuing it with eager feet

Untill it joins some larger way

Where many paths and errands meet

And whither then ? i cannot say

                               J.R.R.Tolkien 

drifting

Drifting

       I sometimes find i’m drifting

Through this life without effect

I often wonder if i’m  worth

What i’ve been truly blessed

   I search through times that have been hard

To try to understand

The many trials that i have known

The life that i have led

You see me in my daily grind

So confident and strong

Yet when i’m alone i question

Just where do i belong  

I often try too hard i find

To analyze and guess

To scrutinize, investigate

My life i will confess  

For somewhere deeper there must be

Some meaning to this life

Some way to make a difference

Give a reason for this strife 

Is there some hidden meaning

Some agenda to be found

A greater purpose waiting

If i care to hang around  

It teases and it taunts me

Always slightly out of sight

A hazy vision out of reach

Where darkness hides the light

 

I struggle to bring clarity

To what awaits me there

And yet this weak illusion

Always fades before my stare

 

It seems the harder that i try

To focus through the haze

Just serves to add more questions

Through my tired and endless gaze  

Perhaps i’m trying much too hard

To understand it all

For can we ever truly know

Just what we have in store 

 

Each incident, each moment passed

Just adds upon the next

But in the end will i find truth

Or will i be perplexed

 

Perhaps i make it harder

 Than it has to be sometimes

But will my searching bring to me

My meaning over time

Or will it leave me broken

And confused as i feel now

While questions bring no solitude

To this my wrinkled brow

 

whirlwinds and ripples

Whirlwinds and ripples
Hugs and tickles
The way you hold me so tight
Making me feel so loved all night

 

Your heart felt devotion
The electrical emotion
The love in your eyes when you kiss my lips
Your soft gentle touch when you squeeze my hips

 

I am so lucky to have such a wonderful man
To love me forever and always hold my hand
Through good times and bad
Through the fun times we have had
And the many more great days
Still to come our way

 

I thank you for being my one true love
For making me so happy and feeling alive
For the safety you bring me
In being myself
For picking me up off the singles shelf

 

For loving me unconditionally
And never giving up
On making our dreams come true
So our life will be fab

 

I love waking up and being with you
My heart aches a little each time I’m away from you
With baby Summer our family is complete
with cats and dogs all around our feet

 

Our life together will be romantic and fun
I can’t wait to look back at all we’ve done
The one thing that I can guarantee will be true
Will be that I will love as much as I already do

 

So thank you for being my husband, my friend
My lover, my life, the one on which I can depend
For being so honest, truthful and kind
For letting me read your beautiful mind
For sharing your life with a gal like me
And for making me feel totally complete

 

Thank you for being you!

listen

Dear Anne-Marie,
Please close your eyes.
And listen closely to your heart,
For it is one that never lies.

Whose name is it whispering?
Listen closely, what does it say?
Is he the one for you,
Or is there something in the way?

Are you still scared?
Are you still afraid of love?
I know there’s someone on your mind,
That you’re always thinking of.

When you were in his arms,
Do you remember how it felt?
Don’t deny the tugging of your heart,
And how it made you melt.

He’s done this much for you,
And you know it warms your heart.
So why are you to ignore,
That you hate to be apart?

Won’t you just admit it now,
About how you truly feel?
You’re starting to believe again,
That love is truly real.

He’s proving you justly wrong,
And he’s boosting your self-esteem.
And you know deep inside,
That this is more than just a dream.

You can’t look him in the eyes,
Because you know what they’d do.
They’d open up YOUR eyes,
To the world around you.

Then you’d have to face the reality,
That you’ve ignored for so long.
That true love does exist,
And all this time, you were wrong.

But you know what?
You don’t have to be afraid anymore.
Because there’s one vital difference,
From the present and before.

Now you’re not alone,
And you have him standing there.
You’ve met someone new,
That you know will actually care.

It’s time to take on the world,
Like you used to do.
‘Cause it’s about time you let him know,
"I’ve fallen in love with you."

stolen

Just like a thief in the night
He stole away my heart.

He’s someone every guy wants to be
In which girls would die for
The center of attention
The moment he walks through the door.

His eyes, his smile
The way that he moves
He knows who he wants
He’s free to choose

It was too good to be true
And I fell too fast
If we were to ever get together
Would our relationship last?

He was nearly perfect
So perfect, it drove everyone insane
Despite it all, they still wanted him
And he just brought them pain.

Then stupid little me
Handed over to him, my heart
And he played me like a fool
And tore me apart

Now, once again
My heart has been used.
Buried in sorrow, all alone
Broken and abused.

The man

Jeez, I want him.
That hair, those eyes.
A beautiful voice,
as he says his goodbyes.

The hands, the biceps,
And God, check out that body.
What girl can’t resist him?
With the look he gives me.

With a good personality,
And a handsome face.
Every girls has already given him,
In her heart, a big place.

He’s so sexy and smooth,
And he’s just so divine.
The perfect man,
I want him to be all mine.

Just look at him,
And that hot, sexy style.
And oh, did I mention?
That beautiful, straight smile.

He’s the center of attention.
And my knees went weak,
The minutes I walked up to him,
And he began to speak.

My heart is racing,
And sometimes it just stops.
I can’t help but feel,
My pulse as it hops.

Can’t get him out of my mind,
been thinking of him all day.
Yet he’s the talk of all the girls,
And "He’s taken" is all they seem to say.

He’s just so perfect,
I think he’s the one I been looking for.
I know it’s pretty fast to say this,
But I think I want him even more.
