It has been years in the making - and yea!
Our hearts will have more breaking
And our lives - privy to even more shaking
but the prize will be ours for the taking!

On a ship tossed by sea and storm
With words from one another to keep us warm
Our course will not be easy ~ not the norm
But like steel in such fires our bond shall form.

So hoist up our flag ~ to each other betrothed
Look to the future; for our pasts shall bestow
All the lessons we need to see our love grow
~ guiding the way for a bonding of souls.

"Keep the faith!" shall be our battle cry
Before us those lacking ~ their hearts now do lie
For success is found in the try and try
and an unshakable belief in the You and I.

She was a sun kissed blonde
With dark brown eyes
I swore they saw through me a few times
I wrote a long time ago
That I’d make deals with the devil
To know a girls name
This time I think I’m long gone
As I’d clip angel wings
And tear down the gates of Heaven
For a moment of her time
I can feel Hell’s heat rise in my veins
When she flashes a smile
And with the curves of her body
She pulls me into the sea
I find myself drowning even in the shallows
