true colors show//with time on our side.
fingers touch//hearts race.
my mind goes wild//how wonderful you are.
miss you already//searching for a way back.
do you feel the same//just friends just won't do, this time.

i took a chance,
and look where i am.

each moment, slowly
gravitating closer
and closer.

friends
or more,
i don't regret it.

such a familiar face,
yet so much to discover.

let me place my fingers
on your heart.
let me lay in your arms.

let me open up your mind,
let me see your heart.

just let me in.

first days of the new year
spent with all of you.
so many laughs,
almost tears.
distance can't separate us,
time can't change us.

Through all the tears and the smiles,
You were always there for me.
I let you in, and You helped me bloom into a stunning flower.
Joyful in everything and ready to keep growing.
I learned the value of patience, friendship, courage, and self-love.
Through it all, You guided me through.
All the scary, new adventures; I wasn't truly scared for I had You by my side.
Lord, take my heart and shape it to look like yours more and more this coming year as well.
Let me be kind and hopeful in all I do.
Let me be more like You.

this life we live is so temporary,
it's what makes it so special
and heartbreaking.

she held the greatest capacity for love
he had ever seen,
for her heart had been shattered
more times than she could count.

she told him to stay away,
for she feared the love of another man.
though that didn't stop
the evident spark between the two.

she finally jumped
into the arms of love,
and forever they will
dance in the dark
to the sound of slow jazz.

pulling their bodies apart,
and their hearts together once more.
