in riddles and laughter
our minds entwine
as your eyes meet mine

And in the struggle to find my words
That have escaped my lips
something inside me rips

and out comes pouring my stories
That I've only wished to tell
you released me from my hell

I was burdened with lonely silence
terrified of the impending fall
but once I leapt from the edge
I wasn't scared at all

and in that moment
thoughts zooming in my head
my face flushes red

It seems my hands caught on fire
The moment that yours touched mine
Also then, I left all my fears behind

and that first kiss
will not be forgotten soon
Under light rain
And in the light of the full moon

now we walk hand in hand
Down the road together
Destined to share our path forever

everyday is different
Everything is new
Everything is wonderful
when I am with you

I feel loved

I wish that they could see it
I wish that they all knew
I wish they could see what I see
when I look at you

I see your love

I can see it in your eyes
I can feel it when you hold my hand
I can hear it in your voice
That you truly understand

I hear your love

I know that you love me
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
all my fears have been washed away
now I know that's what love is about

love is patient Love is kind
Your love is the only comfort I find

I feel your love

Loves about that first everlasting moment
and everything that comes after
about sacrifice and exchange
It's about joy, sorrow, tears and laughter

true love holds out forever
throughout every task, trial and endeavor

it's about being a witness to their life
And about being your best
So you are the best for them
And wanting to give them nothing less

love is patient love is kind
you cannot break loves ties that bind

You're my only love

raindrops strike the ground
in a rhythmic drumming sound
and all I can think of is you

you are my soulmate
the night on a swing sealed fate
light rain drops fell then too

while I lay in bed
just thoughts of you fill my head
the sound of raindrops come through

and when I wake
A shiver and quake
Because I fear my nightmare came true

I need your hand in mine
you still my busy mind
the way only you can do

Promises  .. Lies painted with hope with a layer of sick sweetness to mask the bitter deceit that drips from your soft lips.. A touch rendered of all inhibition through the naivety of an unconditional love shedding its cocoon of coy flirtation maturing into an adult passion.. When these two collide , the web spinner ties the lover up in a whirlwind fantasy, and the lover shows the silver tongue the pure honey taste of honest, trusting love ....and the guilt settles in then the panic ...what am I without my better half- what if my love finds clarity and exacts revenge...I will crush it here and now before we both are destroyed .... So the lover in her convoluted despair fumbles in this mixture of beautiful dreams crashing with nightmares to find the shards of her heart...as the pieces fall back into place ... The woeful eyes and guilty heart returns... Stay with me - Teach me love and joy... I need you... At first the fear of that reoccurring horror flashes in the lovers heart...the fresh wounds burn and sizzle ...she refutes the love she had and adverts her eyes for once spinning a web of her own building a protective layer instead of a trap for a heart..Then the child of joy and sorrow is born in the presence of his father and mother...The lover breaths in the nostalgic scent of love and joy ..she glistens with beads of peace in his arms ...she exhales her sorrow but her fears still linger but the hope and promise returns...only now his web continued on partial truth...he will love her and be faithful...but not be present to feel its warmth... The heart beat skips in joy for the marriage and in sorrow for the icy loneliness...the fear and panic creeps in but this the heart has dealt with before and shall not fail...so she hopes and promises

Lead me out onto the dance floor
just one more time before we go
I will wear a mask of joy
to hide my deepest sorrow

You are leaving tomorrow.

You will be back you say
you say a lot of things..
You make pretty promises
with words and rings.

and each word that breaks... stings.

You said that you wouldn't go
no matter what, no one could pull you away.
how am I supposed to trust
a single thing you say?

For some reason I still do...
even if there is fear and doubt.
I will support your decisions
even if they make me want to shout.

I want to scream in agony
that my heart is going through
it is being twisted on a roasting spit
I don't know what to do

It feels like its stopped beating
or that it is being squeezed
every time you look for that smile
that now seems diseased

You...You say you love me
and I know that much is true
But what are promises, but potential lies
until they are followed through?

I turn to you in my joy,
and say, I love you.
The excitement seeps from my pores
as I almost fly to your side
up the aisle.

Our children dressed to the nines
and our families smiling.
My stomach twisting in knots

What is that feeling? Angry butterflies...
They are excited and so very scared.

I am ready to take your hand
and you are already packed for Basic Training.
You are going to 'seek your fortune' to provide for us
Twisting through the endless spiral cases in my mind
a song drifts up from the depths of my memory
a Cadence that we once sang as we cleaned the house.
I picture you running and running, and working for us
in this heated despair I cry.. They see it as tears of joy.
How relieved am I that they can not see,
that you can not see
the ringing of bells an cadences inside of me.

You started with those Jokes again
I guess you don't understand yet
though I have told you and told you
that it bugs me when you pick on me

Why does it bug me?
several reasons.
I was bullied as a kid...
but mainly, because whether or not you see it,
you only do it for the glory.
You pick on me more when you're around your friends
You think my face is cute when I'm mad
You don't realize that all I see is you exerting power
the power to make me upset, the power only you have.

And there I am... Not wanting to say anything
I don't want to ruin your fun...
I don't want to take that feeling from you...
But, please see there is no glory in what you are doing...
That it is only fun, for one of us...
If you knew I felt this way...You wouldn't do it...
I don't say this to you... because I am afraid...
Afraid you would do it anyway...
