and then I asked you,
"What's your biggest fear?"

you gave me a quivering sigh,
looked at me straight in the eyes
and said,

"It's that eventually, you will see me
the way I see myself."

take me back to the day I laid eyes on you.
so I can ask you your name and tell you I'm in love with you.
and maybe it sounds crazy but I'm going to marry you.
take me back to the first time we skipped out on class together.
so you can hold my hand longer and not leave me this time.
and ill tell you that I know it's still so soon, but I want to hold your hand for forever, through whatever, always.
take me back to the day you crawled into bed with me and held me after I had fallen asleep.
so I can wake up in the middle of the night and tell you everything I'm too afraid to tell you in the daylight.
and ill admit that I think of you every day and strangely want to see your feet bare.. and.. your body.
take me back to the night we tried to have *** but you couldn't stop thinking of her.
so I can tell you it's okay if you aren't ready, because neither am I.
and if you want to just lay here, just exist together, ill tell you that's okay too. more than okay.
take me back to the day I held your head in my lap and we talked about everything that scared us.
so I can tell you not being with you scares me the most, and my heart never settles.
and I won't admit it but ill tell you with my eyes that I want you to keep me.
take me back to the moment we touched other people and for only a second, no longer, forgot each others name.
so I can run away from his lips, and into your arms.
and maybe then your fingers won't find her cheek, and she won't realize your eyes are the darkest brown, but your touch can melt anyone like honey.
take me back to the day we promised forever.
so we can walk away.
and maybe then it'll save us the pain
of you and I.

Inside many a day,
failures come
with footsteps that move
inside shadows.
But hope drifts in breeze

Inside days in a lifetime
sometimes fueled with tears
that seem to last forever
But hope floats.

Inside A journey of growth
where trials come  
to align one in waves of trust.
Hope comes in breath

Inside ups and downs
in human vessel
dreams try to anchor.
But hope will greet you anywhere.

I'd rather be hard to love.
Than easy to leave.
When
        night
              kisses
                      the
                          end
                               of
                                  day,
                      there’s
                          a
                     moment,
            when
       my
cares just…
       fall away,
                     a
                     feeling
                         of
                           gliding,
                                     upon
                              calm
                                    waters of life,
                           when
                    peace
               and
         love,
         overcome my strife….

If I were to write a poem for you
I'd start with saying I love you
You really don't know how much you mean to me
And how deep this love I have for thee

It seems no words can possibly define
How I hold you dear and desire to make you mine
No song no poem can encompass my affection
For you bewilder me with your lovely perfection

If only destiny is in my control
I would lead you straight to my soul
I'll take you to my longing heart
Tomorrow, forever we'll never be apart

I loved you even before time came to exist
And I will love you till my existence would cease
The one I hold dear my Intimate beloved heart and soul
You'll always find yourself in my heart with your name I call
