In the quiet hour
With three am alive and well
In the background close behind

I hear it now, as you spoke to me
Going on long ago
In a voice heard only in mind

And the memory somehow
I now know more intimately
Fondly, as if it was yesterday

Because memories and decisions
In the early morning light
Make more sense at that time

Space...
The only thing
Between these arms which ache.

Rain...
The only falling thing
In this loveless town.

Time...
Like every passing sight
Which was meant to be felt.

And pride...
For the only thing in your life
Worth tearing down.

These are the things always abound.

My shinning Princess; with sparkles in your eyes.
You inspire me,
To write words of love every day,

I love the way you hold me, kiss and love me,
Spending hours in my mind during the day,
and dreaming of you, through the night,

Always dreaming about you and me,
Walking along the ocean's shore,
Seeing shadows of life reflected in sandy dreams,

You are more cheerful than hearing dolphins sing,
Generous and calm as a light sea breeze,
That cools our Souls,

Your kind-hearted spirit brings,
Warmth and beauty to the world,
Like red and white roses blazing in May,

I make this promise to you,
I will always love you, in life and in Heaven,
Our Souls will, never part,

I'll love you, forever...

When the storyteller of Don Quixote told me that love needs no excessive gestures
I felt it was true
And when you saw those words written on my journal
The same time we found the courage to hold on again
You said it isn't about needing though
It's about wanting
And that was what I've been trying to tell you this whole time
I didn't want you because I need you
I needed you because I want you
I love you
But it was only this time that I realize how true those words were to me
We never needed big surprises in public places
And thousands of pictures and social media posts
Although I would have loved that
Love found no need for labels
To know I have you and you have me, always
I don't think there's anything that could ever encompass what we had
Is there a label that could say we found what love really is with what there was
Love didn't need a hell of a roller coaster ride relationship to prove its worth because
You were right
When you feel it, it'll stay there
You just believe it
Not the kind of belief where you believe in something to make it true
But the kind where you believe because it is true
Love needs no excessive gestures
It only needed you and I
It only needed us, in our little bubble, soft glances, warm smiles, right by each other's side, with certainty and calmness we've never found before
Love needs no excessive gestures
But we had always made it so much more.

Always I will love you.


Something inside me makes me remember you;
All that I thought I knew, I never knew.
Without you in my arms I’m still lost and blue.
I think I love you…no, I know I do.


Always I will love you, now and forever;
Always I will wish we could be together.
But if forever is too long for our love to last,
Know you were something special to me…more than just lust.


I’ve been dreaming about, you dreaming about me
And in our dreams I see us smiling because our love is real.
Love is a dream that comes true for some, if it is their destiny;
But all the love I have to give you,
Is not enough to show you how I truly feel.


You are everything I wanted and the only woman I can see myself with;
If your love is as true as mine, then we can always be happy.
Always I will love you because you are all that I need.
If you feel the same way about me, then tell me
And I will give you my heart gladly.
