Knowledge is there
Reach out and grab it
Enrich your life
Take everything in stride
Keep your passion alive
Have that strong drive
Continue on in your progress
Eventually, you will be a success
I was wrong before,
when I said  I was in love.
I had not fully understood,
I thought it was just a warm feeling,
and a smile when they walk into the room.
But now,
Now I know.
Love is a relentless tide,
A storm in my body,
A tornado in my heart.
It rips apart my reality,
And does not care for the wreckage it leaves in its wake.
My mind a war zone.

Love is not butterflies, it is bombs,
It is not fleeting, it is not kind.
It is not compassionate, it is a mighty force that takes control of me, and will not leave.

The rain has stopped,

the sun is shining bright
in blue September skies

and she is happy,
making the world

a more beautiful place

wherever she smiles

Just an appreciation, you all mean a lot to me
I'll edit and add other names here....
You know that word
It has meaning to me
Because nonsense is not nonsense in my world

Her smile is always first to me

but it is at the end
of these long, lonely days

when dark clouds
invade her world and her
heart hurts that I think

making her happy is the

last thing I should do
