She Longs For A Love

Her eyes are brown, With a heart of Gold, She longs for a love, From the stories of old.

She longs for that soft touch, That only her dream man could give, The one that could wake her heart, So she could feel as tho she could live.

Her spirit would open up, As a bright blossoming rose, The whole world would lite up, As her whole body glows!

Frustration

So many thoughts, That are running me insane, Distraught, worry & anger, That causes so much pain.

I keep looking for the good, But there's just none to be found, As I think I might get a leg up, I get kicked the hell back down.

It seems I've lost the fight, Ready to crawl in that hole, For the last couple years, Have really taken their tole.

You

You came into my life, You helped me to believe, There is someone special, And there's nothing I can't achieve.

You have given me a smile, You have brightened my day, You have healed my heart, With the nice things you say.

So glad your in my life, As I think of you each day, For your kind and considerate words, In my life I hope you will stay!

Smell A Rose

Sometimes u should take the time, To stop and smell a rose, Or maybe kiss your baby, Soft and slowly from their head to toes. Its time you can't replace, The moment that's never been, Time that will last forever, But a moment you'll never get again. To look them in the eyes, And see what's deep inside, To see that sparkle, And know where u reside!

Trials

The trials of life,
Each day I try to pass,
Each day a new hurdle,
As I overcome the last.

Trying to pull ahead,
But seem to just fall behind,
Keep struggling to see he light,
But empty darkness is what I find.

Tomorrow is a new day,
That's full of promise & sunshine,
Just gotta make it through today,
For tomorrow everything will be fine.

When Things Get Messed Up

Wondering what I could say, Or if anything at all, Thing get messed so quick, its like a run to a crawl.

Just sit back in the shadows, And watch from afar, As you have a chance to figure out, Just who it is that you are.

You are continually in my thoughts, As you have been since we met, There's not a moment that we've talked, that I'll ever regret.

Falling

Love is not just a word, It comes from deep within, Its not just here for the short go, And often starts with a lil grin.

For when u give your heart, And u truly start to fall, There's not a mountain love can't climb, When 2 r willing to give their all.

When u r n love, And that spark starts to glow, Open up your heart, And allow the passion to flow!

Tay

As you fly with the angels, And look down below, We are thinking of you, as in the clouds we see your glow.

I'm thankful that we met, Even tho our time was short, You will forever be in my thoughts, You sure were quite the sport!

For one day our paths shall cross, But until that special day, I thank God for his gift, When he brought you by my way! ! !

I Wanna

I wanna hold you for a lifetime, And make your dreams come true, I wanna make you feel forever, In everything I do.

I wanna be the one u count on, For the rest of your life, The one you want forever, Without contention, worry or strife.

I wanna be that man, The one in which u dream, The one you have longed to find, The one that makes your eyes to gleam.

Lasting Love

True love is everlasting, From the beginning to the end, Time has no barring, Nor does it change with the wind.

Its not looking for fault, Or where to place the blame, Its always looking for happiness, And not into playing a game.

True love is really special, Its only shared by two, When their hearts connect, And find happiness in everything they do! ! !
