I can't imagine anything
More perfect than you are
I can't imagine brighter lights
To shine from a single star.

I can't imagine a greater love
than the one we share
I can't imagine life alone
or the thought of you not being there.

I can't imagine anyone else
Giving me love the way you do
I can't imagine a better life
Than the life I share with you.

My sweet child, please don't  cry
For I am right here by your side
To take away all your pain
To bring you sunshine from the rain
I carry your heart everywhere I go
Holding it closely when I am feeling low
Your laughter brings music into my heart
Your smiles are the reason I cannot part
Everything about you is beautiful indeed
I am so proud of the life that you lead
Always remember when tears you have cried
Every single moment I was there by your side
Sometimes I would hold you right where you stand
Other times I'd take you by your sweet little hand
Giving you the comfort that I know you need
Taking your sorrows that your soul heeds
The times when your stares are hard to trace
It is I, who stands before your face
The person who brought you into this world
Has loved you since, as her little girl
So when you're scared and you just wanna hide
Please know I am right there by your side.

Here I am,
In the early morning hours
My eyes have yet to see their lids
for thinking of you, I cannot stop.

Here I am,
Portrayed as a lover to one
Through my veins, love flows endlessly
for the heart of another.

Here I am,
Aching to feel your touch
My skin burning, with the desire
to have your cooling caress.

Here I am,
Wanting to travel the distance
To kiss your lips that entice my soul
with pure ecstasy.

Here I am,
Needing you so much
To feel loved by you, wanted and needed
here I am, take me!

Weeping heart, tear bound eyes
Forsaken by the jester of love
Your wretched claws cutting my flesh
Pouring salt into the wounds for torture
So cold, so bitter, full of hatred
Why must thou want to hurt me
Used, abused, yet, in love all the while
Truth refused to be part of you
Why must you thrive on agony
Instead of desiring love as your own
It's desperate to feel your longing
Wanting to overfill you with its sweetness
If by chance agony could slip away
Just for a moment in time..
Love would take you prisoner
Giving you its sweetness divine
No more to suffer loneliness
For your heart would be fulfilled.

Please don't ever be sad for me,
My life is as God planned it to be.
Full of life and so much splendor
More than most could ever render.
My heart is warm, full of laughter
My eyes are sore from looks I capture
Radiating a beauty, given by you
Something lasting, forever true.
Mother and daughter, still together
If only in our hearts we live forever.
Looking in the mirror, it's you I see
The beautiful woman who gave life to me.
God has blessed me with many things
A lot in my life he continues to bring.
No more sadness, no more tears
No more worries, no more fears.
For I am who God wants me to be
So, please don't ever be sad for me.

From this moment on I am yours
To you, my life I now give
I promise to love you forever, my dear
As long as we both shall live.

To give my heart to only you
To be the one who makes you smile
To let you know I love you so
I will go the extra mile.

Kiss you after a long days work
Hug as though we have never touched
Lay beside you as you sleep
For you are the life I love so much.

Even when our bodies have withered
We've become senile and wrinkled too
There will be no other place on earth
Except the place I share with you.

Our love will leave impressions deep
For no one shall ever forget
The most beautiful love shared on this earth
Began when the two of us met.

At the end of our journey together
We will find comfort in knowing
That even when we have parted the earth
In the Heavens our love is still growing.

As long as we both shall live, my love
Are the words I speak to you,
For I know that even when death arrives
Our love shall see us through.

We will leave this earth, not each other
And to you my life I now give,
I promise to love you forever, my dear
Knowing forever we both shall live.

As I drifted off to sleep last night, I heard you  call to me
Knowing I was dreaming of the way things used to be.
Hearing your sweet whispers, seeing your beautiful smile..
Dreaming we were young again, for just a little while.

Your reached your hands to touch me, the way you used to do
As tears fell down my withered cheeks, my heart cried out to you.
I'm standing tall, and staying strong, continuing to hold a smile,
There we were, so in love again, for just a little while.

As I awoke, withered and old, I left you to stay in my dream
For there you stay so beautiful and young, your heart stays pure and clean.
For dreams of you are all that's left, to finish life's lonely miles
If only I could hold you in my arms, for just a little while.
