The moment has passed
To where I don't know,
but the moment is gone
and with it I watch her go
Love heavy in my heart
Tears graze my cheek
Down my neck and back into me
I know someday again I will see
For now my vision is blurry
because the moment has passed
and to fall in love again
I am in no hurry

Give me a chance
To woo you with one dance
Let my grace light up your face
I'll show you love without my lips
Your hand on my shoulder
and mine at your hip
We'll dance into the abyss
This dance will never be a memory
because I plan to dance endlessly
Put your head on my chest
listen to  my heart
Hear how it beats for you
Know that it will stop
if you leave me to dance alone
This dance floor was made for us
Let's make it our home

I like the gentle kind of love
A sentimental kind of love
The physical and mental kind of love
The unplanned and incidental kind of love
The sweep me off my feet and into a whirlwind kind of love
The kind of love that makes me realize why I waited
The kind of love that keeps me motivated
Captivated
Educated
The kind of love that understands
Embraces and wants to know me
The kind of love that satisfies curiosity
The kind of love that sets me free from my body
The kind of love with no doubting
The kind of love that makes life worth reproducing
I need beauty to define my love
I need hate to despise my love
I must be patient if I am to find my love
I won't be hasty
I'll take my time with love
I'll be loves student and let love teach me how to appreciate
Reciprocate and share everything that I can make
I'll be waiting
But please love don't rush
Come to me when we're ready
In the mean time I'll be preparing

I don't mind spending time
watching people pass me by
beautiful people
lost people
happy people
insecure,sad people
people in love
people who need love
we all need love
i love to watch the people
doing their thing
everything that they do
i love people
even when they don't know it
i do
i watch them with wonder, curious eyes
hills, boots, jeans, slacks, and ties
dresses, skirts, shirts, and accessories
behavior, character, attitudes, and outlooks
these people are interesting to me
from the way that they look
to the way that they see
i love these people
but they don't know me

I wanna be like the trees
Growing consistently
Living in harmony
Living free
Designed intricately
When the wind blows I'll wave to the passers by
To those in need I will provide
Giving them a home and air to breath
A place to play
and a foundation to lean on
Shedding leaves to grow new ones
Starting as a seed
My aspiration will be to touch the sky
To shed fruit that will nourish earths inhabitants
I will speak to the people
without a mouth or a voice
Just a message written in my rings
Give and grow endlessly

We make eye contact
My eyes smile and hers smiled back
She proceeded along,
And I to shy
Watched her pass me by
In the moment there was bliss
Reminiscent of the possibilities that exist
As she faded into the crowd
My mind was no less aroused
I began to think of seeing her again
I thought for a while and came to one conclusion
I am blessed to have been a part of the moment
Though I'll never know what the future holds
My imagination is left with a frame and a picture
And in the moment I was caught up with her

I don't want to spend my life struggling to die
Living in vain
I want to enjoy the rain
sun, hail, and snow
I want to plant peace and watch as it grows
I want to be free of the troubles that nobody knows
Let me be free
Let love be with me
Let love be a tree
With apples to spare
for you and for me
