Since now your gone, you're Home Sweet Home,
   your body's laid to rest;
I see the truth more clearly now,
   God only takes the best!

You made your mark before you left,
   you changed so many lives;
Just showing us what real love is,
   not living life a lie.

A smile each day, my hand in yours,
   big hugs when times got tough;
The simple truth, 'til I met you,
   I'd never known true love.

Now as our time has come and gone,
   I'll kept your memory safe;
In spot that ONLY you could fill,
   my heart, your sacred place.
Many times now I have been asked to pen words for many different people and all different occasions. Just yesterday I was contacted by a grieving man who just lost his wife of 36yrs. My heart goes out to him...

I know at times I may not be,
   that perfect man I was;
But never think I'll once let go,
   or ever stop my love.

At times it's hard to say those things,
   a lady needs to hear;
Those certain words that mean the most:
    those words, "I love you dear".

You may not feel undying love,
   is coming from my heart;
Yet never doubt, your stuck with me...
   we'll NEVER be apart!

So when at times you feel left out
    or all alone it seems;
Remember this, YOU'LL ALWAYS BE...
   the angel of my dreams!

I told you once, I'll tell you now;
   none else could be enough;
To draw the love you've formed in me...
    FOREVER kind of love!
When you love someone, life has a tendency of getting in the way sometimes. We get too busy or enthralled with the daily hum drum of life and forget to show that special one we love the attention and the love they more than deserve... Take the time to tell them, take the time to show them today!

I thought you said you'd never leave,
   you'd never have to go;
But since you've left my side for good,
   I'm lower than just low.

I struggle so much more than hard,
   to live from day to day;
To keep my head up moving on,
   to never lose my way.

I know you're walking streets of gold,
   beside that crystal sea;
But hard for me to come to terms...
   you're happy without me.

Your name was called from Heaven's roll,
   to take My Master's hand;
Yes, one day soon I'll stroll with you,
    in Heaven's Beulah Land.

For now I'll struggle on with life,
    And hold your memories tight;
By dreaming dreams I've dreamt so much,
   of holding you each night!
I wrote this piece for a friend of mine whom is struggling from a tragic loss. He told me how he is almost upset at times that he knows she is happy now, but without him...

How can I put in words right now,
   to tell you all you mean;
The simple truth there's not a way,
   to once describe this dream.

To feel this way is really rare,
   to know that I'm in love;
To see My Father sent you here,
   His Angel from above.

I thought I'd really felt this way,
   a time or two before;
Then realized I've not felt THIS love,
   the kind you show and more!

If ever once you doubt His plan,
   just ask and you'll receive;
A peace of mind, a sign it's real,
   this love twixt you and me!
Guys, have you told her today you love her? Have you told her the enormity of your love for her? Have you told her how much her love means to you?

As I sit alone to pen these words,
   my mind is stuck on you;
I think about you everyday,
   in everything I do.

You see it wasnt long ago,
   I saw you standing there;
You smiled at me your gorgeous smile-
   you know it wasn't fair!

You know quite well it pulled my strings,
   my heart had skipped a beat;
Just thinking 'bout it once again,
   my heart does oft repeat.

I said"hello" and "how are you?"
   You said "I'm doing fine";
I knew right then, with just those words,
   your heart would soon be mine!

I walked to you, stepped far too close,
   you stole a little kiss;
The blood ran hot within my veins,
   I'd never felt like this!

I couldn't take that way I felt,
   I pulled you in my arms;
I knew right then I'd keep you safe,
   Through life from all it's harm.

Now as I lay my head to rest,
   It's you I'm dreaming of;
I pray you too know how it felt,
   this little thing called love!
When you find the one special person God has placed on this earth just for you to honor, love, and respect, it doesn't take long to realize!

You think that I may be the one,
   with whom this life you'll share;
To have and hold, til death do part,
   with love you'll ne'er compare.

You've got it right, yes I'm that man,
   to let my love light shine;
To make the best of time we've left,
   by making your heart mine.

We've made it through our separate pasts,
    there's more hard times to come;
But now we'll fight each war ahead,
   the two of us as one!

Let's live that life we've dreamt about,
   to find our peace on earth;
To go where only dreams can go,
   to love beyond all words!
At one time in your life you will, if you haven't already, find that one love that no expression, no words, no deeds can ever begin to express the magnitude, the depth, or the enormity of it! Hold on to it, cherish it, and revel in the beauty of it!

You may not know just all you are,
   or what you really mean;
But simply put, I'm happy now,
   not only in my dreams.

You've changed my life, all for the good,
   you've opened eyes once blind;
Since mending now this broken heart,
   and breaking all the binds.

Oh sure we'll face hard times along,
   we'll stumble on the way;
But never once we'll be alone,
   together day by day.

So keep your head up pressing on,
   we'll fight our way on through;
There's not one thing we can't defeat,
   since now it's me and you!
That moment when you realize you are not battling life alone anymore...
