A story of two lovers,
Who sought to find each other,
Through sorrow and pain, fear and misery,
The story continues for us incessantly.

Brought so much meaning into my life,
So easily enticed,
Your personality and innocence persuaded my mind,
While your love made worthwhile of my time.

Though you were a part of me, I wasn't a part of you yet.
I brought it upon myself that eventually my turn would come,
A time when I would be loved,
So I tried my best; and with hope, put my time and effort just for you to notice me.

Little did I know that you would--but you did.
My time had come and what a time of pride it was,
To be loved by the one that I loved,
I could only wish for nothing else.

I felt you reside deep inside me,
A part of myself that I didn't even discover,
Your words made it so clear,
My life seemed rid of all the clutter.

Sadly I am awoken of this dream,
A deal that I had agreed to,
To give you my heart for your love,
You inscribed your name on it, but pressed too hard,
Now this tender flesh has cuts around your name.

All the time and effort seems wasted now,
I'd give you anything...if I had something left,
You threw away all I had given you,
And it struck my heart,
Thousands of needles penetrating slowly; only to cause more pain.

Walking through an alley of tangled words those nights,
I held your hand and felt your deceptive grip,
Gazing gracefully into your eyes to see mine reflect,
Somewhere between the blue and white I expected to see myself,
But I couldn't find my eyes, perhaps you weren't looking into mine.

What a long night this has turned into,
I can feel the brittleness of my bones, shattering within,
Slowly I ponder what exactly went wrong,
Although I try hard, your words seem to clog my thoughts,
Now I know that tears from a heart that's shallow, holds no value.

So dim now, my life has become.
Hopefully you'll shed some light for me so I don't feel stung,
I wish you knew how I felt, but I don't want to cause you any pain.
I'll get back into shape over time, because I have faith in us.

Maybe I wasn't made for love,
But I can feel you inside of me, and I know, that this has to be true love,
For all the pain you cause me, it just floats away through your charm,
I can't live without you by my side,
So let's be together, and let our souls be one,
I am washed clean by your tide,
Hope tells me that tomorrow,

I'll see the sun rise.

I'm not going to write about your eyes,
Cause I've said all there is to be said.
I'm not going to write about your lips,
Cause there's nothing else left in my head.
I'm not going to write about your hair,
Or the way you make me melt.
I won't be discussing the power of your heart,
Or anything else that I've felt.
I'm not going to talk about your laugh,
Or the way you make me smile.
I won't even talk about your intelligence,
Or that I've been in love with you for a while.

Most days I wake up and you make me smile,
Without even being there.
If you could feel what you do to my heart,
You'd know all the words I won't share.

The moment I knew I love you
I knew you were heaven sent
I dreamed of you my angel
Before we ever met

Soon after the start
true love with you
I’d found in my heart
you're sweet and kind
and my love for you
will last a lifetime

I dream of your smile
and it takes my breath away
I want you
I need you
more than I could ever say

All my prayers were answered
when into my life you came to me
now I love you so much
and now your my everything

When I look at the moon
the stars
the sunrise
and see all of its grace
your still more beautiful to me
and you always put a smile on my face

Together we are
you are always here with me
I'd travel no matter how far
your the one I love
and the only one for me

So I guess this is where I left my life...
I walk to the old spot where we used to go,
and sit alone in the corner...
watching my breath disappear in front of me.

I still remember that night in January
We were both so cold but we didn't care...
All we wanted was an hour to ourselves
to get away from the rest of the world
with their stares and taunts.
Now I return to this place
for an hour without you
Our laughs still echo off the walls as I sit here.
Head in hands I begin to cry,
and I hear us whisper to each other in the dark...

"I love you."

"I love you too."


I scream out to God
but I get no reply.
I guess even He is too busy to talk to me tonight.

This was our secret place,
a place full of memories,
of secrets that will stay locked inside my heart forever,
a place haunted by a love that never had the chance to grow...

But now it is back to what it always was.
An old abandoned building,
cold concrete floors.
I get up and begin searching for our love among the dead leaves that are blowing across the ground,
but I just end up curled up in the corner like before.

It's colder than I remember here,
but then I remind myself that all of those other nights you were here to keep me warm.
I can almost hear you making your way up the stairs,
I can almost see your smile when you find me here waiting for you,
I can almost feel your arms around me again.
I can almost hear you whisper into my ear,

"I'll keep you warm..."

I stand up

I know I cannot hold onto this place forever,
but I can never seem to stop myself from coming back,
hoping to find you at the top of the landing...hoping to find the love that I lost...
I begin walking back home, not even bothering to wipe the tears from my eyes.


And God still hasn't answered.

How do I know I love you?
a simple question
with more answers than we have kisses
and more reasons
than you have time to hear

your smile makes me wish for immortality
if only to see it over and over for always
and to be in your presence
is be myself
comfortably
with no pretense
or need for impressions

minutes spent without you
tick by slower than years
but the sweet promise of us
brings a secret smile
and a calm assurance
that leaves a delicious taste in my mouth

the way you look at me
makes everything in the world
stop and wait for us
and the way our eyes love to touch gazes
makes my heart hug itself with contented delight

I am stronger because of you
and yet weaker all at once
but I would not trade this sweet vulnerability
the sacred opening of everything I am -
I willingly offer it,
because I feel your desire to see it,
to cherish it as you cherish my kisses

I have begun to think of you
as an extension of me
another part that I have always searched for
and somehow never found
two pieces of symmetry
finally joined to make something
not just beautiful,
but destined.
And so when you ask

your voice hushed by the lateness of the hour
curiosity touched with wonder
how it is that I know?
It is easy to answer you now, love.

It is because my soul is smiling.

She fell in love with a boy quite young.
Her heart he held tight.
His quiet words could comfort her fears,
help her forget her years of tears.

She loved him with a passion,
so deep not even the ocean could compare.
And his love for her was equal,
Square.

Though one night this "life" became too much,
with images of death,
he did not think,
was in a rush.

He must have been blinded by his sadness..
For that was the only way he could miss...
miss the fact that her love was still there,
Burning bright like a fire.
But soon his decision was down to the wire.

In sadness she heard the next day,
that with us her one love did not stay.
Oh how much she cried,
mourning the loss.

One life gone,
a beautiful love lost.
She sits now sad,
Alone.
Her love gone to a better place,
somewhere...
Unknown.

He took his life
and others tried to take theirs,
but alone she sits,
and stares.

Though what she sees
is what she will miss,
Everything they never got to have...

Their First Kiss

Forever, have I lost you?
You’re fading from my sight.
Can you not see we’re falling?
We’re dying in the night.
My heart is yours, Forever,
I’ll never turn away.
I’ll wait for you to find me.
I’ll try to make you stay.

You promised me, Forever,
To make our hearts as one.
Did you forget, Forever,
To tell me we were done?
Forever, will you hold me,
And sooth my heart to sleep?
Tell me again, Forever,
That I’m the one you’ll keep.

My heart will beat, Forever,
Until you bid it rest.
I’ll live for you, Forever.
I’ll try to pass this test.
Forever, I feel empty,
My heart has told a lie.
Forever, can you promise
That you won’t start to cry?

This wound will bleed, Forever,
But pain is worth the prize.
I’ll sing for you, Forever,
An angel for your eyes.
I’m leaving you, Forever,
But, Forever, I will wait.
I promise that I’ll meet you
At heaven’s golden gate.

Forever, I will hold you,
I’ll never let you go.
Forever, I will love you,
Though you may never know.
I want to stay, Forever,
But God has called me home.
My soul will stay, Forever,
And follow where you roam.

My death may hurt, Forever,
But know it’s not your fault.
I know you tried to save me.
Life just wouldn’t halt.
I know this loss will hurt you,
But please promise me this:
I want you to remember
The times when we would kiss.

I want you to remember
The girl the pictures show,
And please try to remember
The woman that you know.
Remember this, Forever,
I’m watching from above.
Remember me, Forever.
Remember I’m your love.

I Love You

Just three little words
don't seem like enough
for someone who's smile
still brightens my day,
who's touch can make me forget
the rest of the world.

They don't seem like enough
for someone who's always been there
to celebrate with me
when everything goes my way
and to hold my hand
when my whole world
seems to fall apart.

But even though "I Love You"
can't express the depth
of my feelings for you.
I hope you know what's in my heart.
Because loving you
means more to me
than anything in the world
and it always will.

My love for you...............

you may not see in me,
what I see in you

you may not feel ,
what I feel
but my immortal love for you,
these mortal boundaries of world can’t conceal

however hard my love,
I try to take you out of my mind,
but yet again I find;
reflection of my eternal love in your eyes,
then my soul flies,
and my heart cries ,
for your love.

Seeds of love in my heart you sow,
cant be expressed in words I know.
my love is like a flower in the wild;
and a tide,
in a ocean so wide;
I hope through them you would sail;
in the calm and in the gale,
making my love a timeless tale.

You were in my mind when I woke up this morning
And I've been thinking about you all day long..
Remembering your smile, your voice, the sound of your laughter..
Remembering the little things we've shared
and how long it will be before we're together again with a time to share even more..
I can't think of anything or anyone
but YOU today..

I guess I’m missing YOU, more than I usually do . . .

When I'm fast asleep,
My body feels you there.
The sound of your heartbeat,
Paints thrills in the air.
My smile floods the night,
As I dream of a lifetime with you.
We are tried and true.

When I'm all alone,
My soul aches for your touch.
The wind cries your name,
And I miss you so much.
I gaze through the sky,
As I ponder the times we've been through.
We are tried and true.

Day after day,
My heart keeps one name.
And only one angel,
Can ease all my pain.
Night after night,
I see only one light, and its you.
Yes, it's true.

When I'm wide awake,
I breathe through your heart.
And I long for the day,
That our lifetime will start.
I scream for your kiss,
Nobody exists but you.
We are tried and true.

I had a vision of you, my love.
Flying over the stars and skies
Grief and pain I am empty of,
Confused, bemused, and lost in your eyes.

We slip in our road; you hold me close.
Whispering sweet nothings to me
Oh so, bold, then something unfolds
In your eyes you tell me, “I love you”.

After all, our hearts do beat as one
Seize me, carry me as I drown
Seeing your frame against the sun
I ache to run my hands through your hair

We will live on we will never leave.
We fly amongst the moon, clouds; stars,
Then our lives being to weave
Together as in a dream (as we fly).

Twirling in a shadow of light
I ask you, “is this all a dream?”
Then you remind me, politely,
With a tantalizing kiss, I knew.

I knew from your lips you were mine
In your eyes, your gorgeous, sweet eyes
I noticed the spark of Heaven
In your eyes, I never saw goodbyes

In our embrace, the whole world goes still.
Our love will strive and never die
Tonight, I feel a thrill inside
In your eyes; there is no one else alive.

I swear to God
that I love mine as much as
you love yours and that
if I could find the words to say it,
I would. If I could
find the perfect words, if I could just
close my eyes and instead of thinking
I love her I love her I love her

think of something poetic and real and un-cliché,
just for a second,
I would. but
I am-she is-we are poetic,
real,
un-cliché

and I know it with all of me and I know she knows it
too and I know that I don't need to
write poems about her because she already knows,
she already knows
(because she loves me too)

but even so
I wish I wish I wish I could
come up with the words that make
me-her-us sound-look-feel justifiable,
right (oh-so-right),
and/or as incredible as this really is.

I am-she is-we are a phenomenon, I swear it,
and I know damn well that I don't need to say anything
but damn it, I want her to know!

And when I read her my poems
I can hear her smiling, because
you see, those words?
Those vowels, those consonants, are
me
her
us.

You'll never know how much I love you,
I can't tell you,
I won't tell you.

I'm afraid of being hurt once more.
If I told you, all that you would say is "It wouldn't work...",
This is more than likely true.

I may not know that lot about you,
But I feel like I can trust you with my heart.
Give my heart to you is what I've always wanted to do ever since I got to know you.

You’re leaving and I'm staying.
You’re right it wouldn't work...
This is too much for me to handle.

If I fell once more...Would you be there to help me up?
I doubt it since you'd be gone.
Though I do wish that if I did, that you would be there to help me up!

I've loved you longer than I know.
I can't show it.
Showing you how I feel would be like putting myself in a pool of sharks with an open wound on my skin.

My heart is my greatest weakness and you already know that.
You won't take my heart...
Not even if I offered it to you.
I hate myself for loving you,
But I'm glad that I do.

Your lips speak a soft sweetness

Your touch a cool caress

I am lost in your magic

My heart beats within your chest

I think of you each morning

And dream of you each night

I think of your arms being around me

And cannot express my delight

Never have I fallen, in love

But I am quickly on my way

You hold a heart in your hands

That has never before been given away.

On the still of the night

I close my tired eyes,

Want to leave everything behind,

Yes, leave it all behind.

Her love, soul, mind,

The gentle touch of her lonely hearth

Leave it all in the past,

Erase them in a blink of an eye...

But this I cannot do,

Because I still love only YOU…..

And although you are gone

And I'm left here all alone,

I'll try to hold on,

But cannot tell for how long.....

Today, all is lost,

My brain, thoughts and soul….

Here I lay in my bed

Waiting for her

To take me away,

To catch up to the love

That got taken away.

Once I close my eyes

The present will meet the past

And together again at last,

Just like in mortal life

We will never be apart.

Today I died......
