Every time I look into your eyes
the love I see goes far beyond
anything that my eyes have ever
allowed me to see.

With every touch of your hand
an energized feeling lures through
my body, inside and out with the
most wondrous shock of love.

Every sound of your voice generates
my heart, strengthening what I feel
for you, knowing there will never
be another love so true.

The most wondrous feeling in all
the world, is the feeling of knowing
that you will love me forever , even
after our bodies hold no more life.

Without question or further need of
knowing, our love is strong enough
to conquer all obstacles in life, and
hang on even after.

I love you, now, this day, and forever more...

Your beauty invites me
Beckoning me into your surroundings...
Anxious to make a wish upon this beautiful well
Taken by its wondrous reflections
I cease everything that I am....
The well, that of which, is you.

Savoring the peacefulness
Absorbing every drop of you...
For into the wishing well I wish to drown
A single coin tossed in your presence
Tarnished by your beauty...
The desired coin, that of which, is me.

Presence of a drifter
Admiring the beauty of the well...
Prays for the granting of his wish upon us
Dropping a single red rose in exchange
To lie with us forever....
The red rose, that of which, is our dream.

Sweetest dreams I have of you
To see your smile, and feel your touch
If any dream could ever come true
I'd wish for this one so much.

The sparkle you carry in your eyes
Defies any that I have ever known
The way you make me feel inside
Is more than I've ever shown.

I long to feel your body near mine
To taste your lips of sweet desire
Feel the passion as it arises before us
Setting our bodies on fire.

Underneath the moonlights bliss
We will dance until the night fades
When the light takes us in for tomorrow
I will wish for my dream to stay.

The dream that rocked my world tonight
Shall we meet someday, and forever
The thought of loving only you
Could be my biggest dream I endeavor.

The stars shine on the evening that's made for only two
There's no one on the earth tonight except for me and you.

A walk on the beach, together hand in hand
Underneath the moonlight's bliss on the pure white sand.

A love that's born unto this night, the love of you and I
The strongest and the finest love that any two could find.

This night we'll make a solemn vow, declare the way we feel
And I'll become the captive of a love that is so real.

My eyes will sparkle like diamonds for all the world to see
And my heart will beat forever more, knowing I have thee.

Our first kiss will be like fireworks, on the fourth of July
The fire ignites, and passions explode..lighting up the sky.

The way that I feel when I dream of you by my side
Is a sense of completion, astoundment far and wide.

All these dreams that I dream, each one about you
Will I ever wake up finding my dreams have come true?

In reality I know, you are the missing piece in my heart
Just wake me from dreaming, so this life we can start.

I'm overwhelmed and excited about a life spent with you
Now wake me from dreaming, let's share this life made for two

As darkness falls upon my heart
There is hope for something new
And in the evenings sweet embrace
I'll think of just we two.

When the night has gained control
I'll kneel to say a prayer
And as I pray like nights before
Your presence will be there.

Midnight strikes and all is silent
But thoughts of you still remain
So much love I had for you
And you broke my heart in vain.

Now as I dream, your presence fades
In hopes to wake to a brand new start
Forget the way you betrayed my trust
leaving me with the broken heart.

At early dawn my dreams shall end
I'll wake without thoughts of you
No more tears, or saddened eyes
from the hell you put me through.

The morning sun shines on my face
And my feet slowly touch the floor
I look towards the sunlight and smile
Realizing, I now love you no more.

You say I cannot love you,
Lest your heart judge thine own,
For love is more than just a word,
From the heart and soul be shown.

I stand before my Prince today
Arms open like the wings of a dove,
Praying that in my arms you'll fall
Giving me timeless hours of love.

If but just a dream I seek
Tomorrow shall be tears of pain,
Thy heart will shrivel of death
Thy love will die in vain.

Join me my love, this day
Except the love that I hold dear,
For naught in timeless hours
Shall place your heart so near.

I bid thee a love that shall be eternal
A love full of lastingness and power,
Our souls shall rule for eternity
While our hearts dance in timeless hours.

What beneath my feet doth hold
Thy body strong, and steady
When all the while I feel weak
Thy palms are warm and sweaty.
Feverish feeling all over my body
Clammy skin, to touch so cool
Skin as pale as the fairest of them all
Faint, and falling like a fool.
No more strong and steadiness
Lanky with eyes that droop
A body so frail and fragile now
Above thy life does beauty group.
Taking my hand, lifting me to my feet
Strength now rushes over me
Whence all the while it was dream
Allowing my heart and soul to see.
Hidden behind a closed door
My life seems as described above
Once the dream took over my mind
There was nothing more than love.
Waiting to capture my heart and soul
To refrain me from seeing anything less
Now I understand the meaning of ones self
Open your heart, for your life shall be blessed.

Tomorrow is a dawning
Of a new and beautiful day
Excitement fills me inside and out
In ways I cannot say
It's almost like I'm whole again
Things are nearly as they should be
Right now it's all still incomplete
Until tomorrow your face I see.
When our lips greet each other
Our arms reach out with love
The sounds of our hearts beating
And the sun shines down from above.
The laughter and excitement
We shall see within each other
Nothing in this whole wide world
Beats the two of us together.

My heart restrained
Locked behind these bars
No escape from torture
No freedom from the walls

A life so bitter, so angry
                            Falling to my knees                              
Lots of air to fill my lungs
Though I refuse to breath

Captured in hell
Longing for my death
The desire to be free has set in
Now I lay my head to rest

Since death refuses to take me
My life I shall hand to thee
Cutting my wrists wide open
My blood shall set me free

The pain I feel is agony
Though such a desiring need
Falling to the ground
As I watch my body bleed

Lifeless now, unable to move
The blood creeps everywhere
Blackness becomes my sight
As in my face, death does stare

I realize now my freedom
Where it has been all along
Tonight I lay my head down
For the rest of the world is gone

My pain has eased to tolerable
As my last breath I take
Tonight I close my eyes with death
Never again to wake!!

My sadness has become torture
Over ruled by my thoughts
My blank stare into the world
Feeling empty, lonely, scared
To see the face of a thousand smiles
Could only draw me from sorrow
The voice of eternal strength
Eyes that are destined to blind
Only from weakness..
Where if all my sadness arises
Hast thou happiness disappeared
Doth my heart seek darkness
Or is it darkness that found me
Blood fills the eyes that cry
Death awaits the heart that loves
Seek me, from this dying torture
Grant me, away from weakness
Bring me, my true love.

There we were together in the little town cafe'
Neither of us knowing that we were to meet that day
As I sat across the room his stare was quite intense
Once I looked up smiling just to take a quickened glimpse
Although he made me smile by the way he looked at me
Still I never thought my soul mate he could be
I couldn't help but wonder why he was over there
Looking at him sweetly he must have felt my stare
Gently he arose and moseyed closer, near to me
As he sat down at my table, brushed his hand across my knee
My heart began to race, my eyes were all a flutter
Words escaping from my mouth were all but just a stutter
He asked me if I believed in love at first sight
If two hearts could bind together by the moons casting light
Shall the stars dance before us in our glory we've yet to see
Or shall we dance together and let the feel of love proceed
For if the night shall vanish without a kiss from you
I'm afraid that come tomorrow I'll know not what to do
This couldn't be for real, a dream perhaps I'm in
Maybe my imagination is playing tricks on me again
As he touched my hands with the gentle feel of his
It felt as though I floated, deep into a midnights bliss
Do I believe in love, love at first sight
I didn't believe in much until this very night
As he leaned across the table, his hand touching my cheek
Our lips were drawing nearer, my body was becoming weak
Though I fell into a trance as our lips did embrace
Never will I forget the look upon his face
It was as if he'd known me forever, though I'm sure we'd never met
Thank you God for allowing me, this night I'll never forget
Was this more than just reality, maybe it was my wish
Something about that night, it didn't vanish without a kiss
Although the night decreased rapidly turning into a beautiful day
Our hearts were bound as one that night together they shall stay.

Look around you...
What is it that you see?
You think it's all of nature
About the birds and bees...
I see a beauty to most unknown
One inhibited from life
A peaceful reassurance
Seen only through my eyes.
None other can captivate
What before your eyes is shone
For deep inside the heart of life...
Lives a love to most unknown.
You cannot call it as you see it
For you see not what it is
My heart has the sight to see...
What before my eyes shall give.

My shy eyes gaze into yours
My emotions masked with soft aura of innocence
Like a sun kissed dandelion at dawn

But underneath, I conceal a fiery inferno of unspoken passion
Part of me hoping you'll see it's warmth
Another part hoping you won't.

Your entrancing beauty captures my breath
Filling me with a sensation of warmth and chills
Every hue of emotion melts into me
Ebbing and flowing with each turn

I want to touch you, but my heart is in chains
My love is an underground river
Flowing towards you, but then scurrying away
Quietly running through every crevasse of my being
My words drown within a torrent of emotions

As I wonder
And long endlessly
In my unquenchable thirst

My eyes brimming with hopeful longing
Sparkling like ripples
as your sunniness kisses the watery depths of my soul
And I wait in chains
Hoping you'll hear the unspoken passions of my heart

The rain holds our hearts
together forever more
Our souls dance in love
As our smiles spread the shore
I hold your hand as we walk
Knowing that you're not there
In my heart and in my mind
you surround me everywhere
As I speak to you in silence
My words I know you hear
When I touch your body softly
there is nothing that we fear
For love is not a figment
nor a dream we wish to wake
We are the proof of true love
That noone can forsake.

Someday when I'm old and frail
When wrinkles are all that you see
My hair is silky, long and grey
Will you still be in love with me?

If my hands become shaky and shriveled
Or I often seem weak in the knees
If my feet are always cold at night
Will you still be in love with me?

When my eye sight starts to diminish
Or my minds no longer young and free
If my clothes don't match from time to time
Will you still be in love with me?

Maybe I'll become a sour old soul
Or often wet the sheets as we sleep
But I need to know that no matter what
You will always be in love with me.

Every night as I fall asleep
Its your face I long to see
In the dream that never ends
Where wishing stops, and love begins.

To dance with you under the moonlight
The stars shining forever bright
A song so beautiful, tender and true
Words that are meant for me and you.

Gentle breeze of the night passes by
Leaving a kiss on the lips of you and I
Nurturing dew, blankets our souls
As the midst of the night loses control.

Now lying beneath the stars so bright
Our bodies together so tightly entwined
The cries of our emotions drowned the song
The beating of our hearts inspiringly strong.

As the brightness fades from the stars array
The night journeys on into everlasting day
Where wishing stops, and love begins
This is the dream that shall never end.

Wretched and withered soul
Why has thou been created?
God must have had a blank moment
As your life he contemplated.

While in the midst of his discretion
Or the blanks that he once drew
There was no better soul to forget
Than the wretched and withered you.

There were lives given for reasons
Each and everyone included a heart
As you fell astray, and withered away
God must have forgotten that part.

They say, "Evil is as evil does,"
It wears a face of black
It shall ponder in Hell forever
Without ever looking back.

Wasted time, and pointless creation
God's  work here is all done
When the book of life is opened up
For you, there will be none.

You'll stand before him shaky
Scared and so alone
When he calls out the names of Good
You're name shall never be shown.

As Evil comes to take you away
You'll ask, "Evil, must I go with you?"
God will stare you in the face
And answer, "Yes, I'm afraid you do!"

Though you'll question his decision
Your head, you'll hang in shame
But in your wretched, withered soul
You'll have no one else to blame.

God loves all, who love themselves
Gives good to those who believe
For those who lose there way somehow
The pits of hell they receive.

As I'm led away from the pearly gates
Where many people will be waiting for me
They shall see the hand of Evil in mine
Leading me where I deserve to be.

You could take this life and end it now
You know, the one that you created
The wretched and withered soul
That you so strongly contemplated.

The one that while in creation
You must have drawn a blank
Because someone like me, is not God's work
I only have Evil to thank.

Awakened with thoughts of you,
Drowning by your presence in my mind,
Dying to feel your touch,
To smell the essence of your skin.
You're intoxicating.
As I look beside me, no one is there,
Only your light radiates around me.
I close my eyes to feel your touch on my skin.
Shivering from the excitement that you bring.
If into my thoughts only I have fallen,
Let me never be awakened,
For you are the sweet sounds of the night,
Calming as the deep blue sea, that of which I wish to be.
Our love carries me through each day,
Memories of us fill my nights,
Your love, my darling, takes my heart to heavens heights.
Be with me always and stay in this place of pure bliss forever.

Petal by petal and stem by stem,
Where my love shall I begin?

One is for who you are
Giving me love near or far.

Two is for the way you smile
How you go that extra mile.

Three is for your kisses sweet
The feeling of love each time our lips meet.

Four is because of your gentle touch
The one I long to feel so much.

Five is for the happiness you bring
The joy that makes my heart sing.

Six is for the way you say my name
From any other mouth it could never be the same.

Seven is for the times we are together
Knowing someday that they will last forever.

Eight is for my dreams that came true
Straight from the heart of only YOU.

Nine is because you allowed my heart to see
All of the love that you had just for me.

Ten is for everything that you do
But most of ALL ten is because I LOVE YOU!

Although your mind says you love me
Where does you heart reside
Is it somewhere many miles away
While here, it's trying to hide.

You say you've gotten over her
Your love for her is gone
But deep inside this heart of mine
I have to say you're wrong.

It's just you cannot see it, yet
Though soon you'll find the way
The love you hold dear for her
Will take my love away.

Little things you say and do
Are reminders everyday
Of the love you shared with someone else
No matter what you say.

Just to have you talk about me
The way you talk about her
I would have given anything
Anything in this world.

My love for you will never die
Nor will it fade away
But as for now, until she's gone
My love can no longer stay.

Was it just your pleasure
To cause me such pain
What did you strive for
Was it pride you had to gain?

Could you not just be honest
Instead of filling me with lies
Now I sit here feeling cheap
In a blinded disguise.

To open up no more
For my trust was truly shattered
I never thought my life would be
This strung out, or battered.

You made me feel important
Like you really wanted me
Now silence is your game
Through you, I can see!

If I had the chance to do it all again
I would remove that night
You never would have existed
and I would still be alright

I wouldn't have confused my relationship
for something I thought would be good
So, I choose to make you disappear
just like I really should.

You brush against me gently          
A hint of what you need,
Our bodies feel inspired
By the passions that we heed.

Your eyes, they cross me softly
Bringing chills upon my spine
For just to feel you touch me
Is a feeling one of a  kind.

So, sweep your hands across me
Your finger tips on my skin,
Plant your hands within my soul
Bury your love deep within.

Make love to me all through the night
And when the night shall end
Hold me in your arms so tight
Never letting go again.
