If only you knew
How stressful it is
To hear a siren at night
And wonder if its heading to your house.

But you have rabbits to take care of, and classes at community college. So there's no reason that you'd cut too deep tonight.

Right?

But I'll see your car in the parking lot on Monday and throw up my anxiety in the bathroom.

Having a love is a magnificent feeling
Having a lover is a brilliant thought
Making room in your world for such beauty;
His soul

The truth comes out, as you are falling
love conquers all

You start to notice the small things
His eyes, so mysterious
His smile, draws you in
His laugh, paints a picture of the future
His touch, brings you somewhere, you never want to leave
His everything, is everything that you want

More than anything,
I love you
More than anything,
You are

My one and only
It's us against the world
He gives you a reason
To smile
To live
To love
He gives you a reason,
A reason to be

Yourself is all he wants, you are all he needs
no make up necessary, no styling of the hair
he will not judge you for your scars
nor your mistakes
Your past, it does not matter
Your future, in his eyes
He picks you up, into his arms
holds you closer than ever

“I love you more than anything,
more than the stars love to shine,
more than the sun loves to blind
more than the earth loves to give life,
I love you more than anything,
I love you, I love you and all of you”

Always.©

Cold sweats,
waking just to see who may be watching,
it was only a dream
you're alone

A dream turns to a nightmare with one mistaken thought
Toss and turn,
I wish you were here
holding me in your arms telling me everything will be okay
but again you are, alone.

Alone?
What a life style it has become
a feeling only mended by another being
Only you

It was always only you
it will always be, only you
Only
you..©

Behind these eyes,
there is a story.
A way in.
A way out.

Breathing silently through closed doors,
we enter our minds at ease,
bringing the balance to play.
Look at me, and wonder.
Listen closely for I do not speak,
there is but a simple beat.
Follow, desires.

Feel that?
Gently glide through the motions,
paint a picture.
With your mind.
I feel you,
You feel me.©

I look up at the stars at night, and wonder why they’re all so bright.
I look up at the stars at night, and wonder if they have to
fight, have to fight for all their might, for their special place in the sky
Oh my, I wonder why, oh why they have to die.
How many could there be in the dark night sky,
how many could there be in the humans little eye.
I try to count yes count them all, the souls
of the fallen, I hear them call, to their
families the ones in their homes.
All their voices go at once, all their voices quiet and mute.
They fall, and fall, and fall at last, they fall and fall, fall so fast.
The difference I kindly see is that they only
want to be, with their families safe and
sound, but sadly they are tightly bound.
It’s wrong to say they’ll be okay, It’s 1855
you see, when all the blacks were sent to sea,
to work as slaves they didn’t want to be.
So look up at the stars tonight, and wonder
why they’re all so bright, because you see
they’re all the souls, of the ones you wrongly chose. ©

Life on the side,
we look inside our minds,
ideas.
We flinch with the thought of success.
It's unfamiliar. Doesn't seem right.
Open your eyes,
let it sink in.
Believe you can reach the light.©

Breathe me,
Feel the pounding through my veins
Live through my eyes
Never let me go©

Your movement strikes me,
my weakness is you
your heart beat, it's steady
I love you, I do

We danced to no music,
that night in your room
just silly, and innocent
our love in forever bloom

That look in your eyes,
It's love that I see
you're perfect and amazing
All for me

The future is closer then it seems
with you forever, in my dreams
I hold you close to my heart
you're the best piece of art

To be your wife
a dream come true
Oh man, I really do love you
You're on my mind everyday
I can't wait to hear you say
“Miranda, will you marry me?”
Forever and always is what we'll be

Growing old with you
I see it now
Together we made a special vow
To love each other forever more
It's you that I very much adore

Paul, I love you with all my heart
I made a promise from the start
To love you always
and only you
My answer to you is that
I do

I miss you quite terribly
I love you very much,
I can't wait to see you,
I need to feel your touch

Your kisses are so perfect,
your hugs keep me sane,
I love when we're together
and walk down memory lane

The day we met
I'll never forget, the way you looked at me
So much wonder in your eyes, it's all that I could see

You make me happy, you make me sad
at least I'm not completely mad
The way you are, is all I need
Your love, yes, yes indeed

It's sparks we saw that very first day
That, I am so proud to say
we made it through, against it all
I love you very much, Paul

Thank you for being mine
I'm glad I waited in that line
The application that started it all
You're the one that made me fall.
