Even though I cant hold your hand my love
I can find it in every cup of coffee or tea I hold
And they wonder why I drink them so much
Feeling the heat sear my hands
Like yours do, when I hold them so tight

Even though I cant hear your voice
I can hear you in bits of every song
And they wonder why my headphones are always in
Feeling you in the notes and words

Even if i cant see you, I still feel you in everything
You are why

Skin red left in the wake of gentle kisses
Tender to everything
From the star light that touched my arms
that peaceful night

It was a cosmic reaction
A total light show
All because you where there
That first kiss under shooting stars

we created the most magnificent show
Lighting up the skies
Even if it was behind closed eyelids

People wonder How you can make me shine
Even from so far away
But they don't know what an ache we have
Or how much we need each other

So while the lights shine and you are away
Every glimmer reminds me of you

So Ill shine for you
Till we can be together
and we will live in the land of a thousand lights
So light up Babes
stars- the **

Hey you
With your soulful brown eyes
And slender frame
It's cute when you use my name
I dread our goodbyes
Hey you
With your silly stories
And odd little quirks
You and I'll make it
Despite the jerks
If not we can fake it
Hey you
I like you
With your not so appropriate jokes
The way you walk proudly
I love being in your arms
I'll say your name loudly
Hey you
I love you
This is dedicated to my lovely boyfriend, Jared.
Love to laugh,
Love to love,
Love to make peace,
Love to be grateful,
Love to appreciate,
Love to dance,
Love to sing,
Love all these simple things that give great meaning to life,
Love to give,
Love to pray..
Love life because its too short to be despised,
Love it..

I am trying to let things off my chest
It's about time i realize
not all of us are mean't for true love and all that.
I read somewhere "
we define love
by what we experience."

It's safe to say,
What has been so clear so far
is that passionate love
That i used to dream off
Doesn't apply to me.

Nor the kind of soft love
that can exist between two people
who want to share their lives.
I don't have that either

What i do have
Is a list of rejections.
All this time ,I've been blaming myself
Thinking I am the problem
But not anymore
I am a totally awesome person.

I just wasn't meant to share that
Romantic passion with anyone.
I am making peace with that.
I really am.

I'll divert all that energy
That was seeking and looking around
for "Real Love",
To things that will build me up
or help me achieve my dreams
Be a blessing to other people.

Not all of us
Are destined for romance
Not all of us have that One person
We are waiting to find.

I just wanna live my life happy
Doing all the things that are necessary
Having an impact with the world.
I'll share that passion.
That,I know I can do.

If I were to write
A poem of me
Would be dark as night
And bright as the sea

If I were to write
A poem myself,
I'd compare my heart
To an empty shelf.

Nothing to speak of
As far as stories go
When it comes to love life,
I've nothing there to show.

If I were to write
A poem of my life
I would talk of hurt
Of anger and of strife.

But there's one more thing
I would write about
If I gave myself
A heart-felt shout out

If I were to write
A poem about me
I would write of love
Not something you can see

I have been so loved
Throughout my whole life
That sometimes it even
Outdoes all the strife.

The love of God, my father
Is greater even still
Than any of the anger
That echoes Satan's will.

When my heart has fallen
And I can't get back up
He sets me on my way again
He overflows my cup

So if I were to write
A poem about me
I'd write of love unbounding
Dark and shining like the sea.
The meter isn't quite what I would like it to be, but it came from my heart.
Blessed be the name of the Lord.

god  ,
god  help me choose
between two fools
who are deeply in love with me
i don't know what they saw in me

Necks tend to sway, but the mind and heart of a poet will never sway away.....
Read a poem from @ JustinWampler and my
Comment ended up being a short poem. So here it is again.

@JustinWampler thanks for the inspiration.

Welcome change.
Because it's waves are crashing at your door.
It is rushing in.
This is beyond your control.

So let it flow right through you.
Surround you.
Engulf you.

Surrender.

Though we cannot change what tomorrow brings...
...we can still live with grace today.
