~Each time~

I tell myself I’m finally cured
I’ve conquered all the pain
I’ve made it through these troubled times
And still I am quite sane

I do not lie awake at night
And ponder what can’t be
I sleep as newborn babies do
And feel I’m finally free

Tears no longer cloud my sight
My mind is free to roam
I listen to some country tunes
Or read a lengthy tome

I’m back to watching sports again
I have a drink or two
I smoke a stogie when I want
And do not think of you

And yet a thought keeps poking me
Reminding me again
Of how I never got to feel
A love that might have been

And so I guess I’m not so free
It’s all a self-made lie
I think it’s cause this heart of mine
Breaks each time you walk by.

~I Can Only Ask~

I long to live a lifetime
Wrapped within your arms
To see you there beside me
To know your many charms

But if that cannot happen
I’d settle for some years
To have you as a part of me
And calm my many fears

And if some years is far too long
Then give a month or two
And I will make myself content
To just be near to you

And if there is no month with you
Pray let me have a week
To know how it would feel to have
The ecstasy I seek

Or give to me a shorter time
Like maybe one whole day
To look into your azure eyes
And say what I must say

But if you do not have a day
I beg for just one hour
To place you in a loving shrine
Within an ivory tower

And if an hour you cannot spare
I’ll make a minute do
That I might feel the blessed joy
Of spending time with you

But if you cannot grant me this
At least give me a space
To just reach out with a loving hand
And once caress your face

~Let Me Dance~

Let me dance with you tonite,
hold you ever so tight
Let me hold you in my arms,
so long into the night
Let me show you in so many ways,
just how much you mean to me
Let me unwrap the mystery of your heart,
today and thru eternity

Let me dance with you tonite,
to a song forever sweet
Let me feel your warmth so close,
our bodies all so complete

Let me marvel at your beauty,
so amazed by what my eyes see
Let me discover the magic of love,
the way it comes so easily

Let me dance with you tonite,
just so you will always know
Let me taste another kiss,
you and your love quite the show
Let me hear the beating of your heart,
a sound so wonderful
Let me enjoy these times we share,
each moment so incredible

Let me dance with you tonite,
a promise I made so long ago
Let me thank you so simply,
the way your love helped my heart grow
Let me dream with you forever,
our future right before our eyes
Let me understand you even more,
together we will share each sunrise

Let me dance with you tonite,
no special reason I must say
Let me know just how blessed I am,
your love I have each day
Let me see your love so true,
so glad we took this one final chance
Let me never be without you,
our life will be a forever dance.

Just Hold Me

Hold me tonite, as we cuddle close
I want to hear your heart’s melody
To the symphony of old love songs

Hold my face, with your tender hands
And kiss me like you never have before
Take my breath away with your lips.

Hold my heart, with simply your soul
I want to feel the purity of your intent
I indulge in knowing that you’re all mine.

Hold me as we sleep, so I can dream
Of this beatiful thing called Me and You
That even through the day I dream about

Hold my hand, everywhere we go
Because with you I feel so complete
Baby wherever we are, just hold me.

*Only LoVe*

Only love can take away my sorrows…
Only love has a cure for my loneliness…
Only love can heal my wounds…
Only love can give me a reason to live for…
Only love can bring my confidence…
Without it I am nothing,
Love, where are you?
I am so desperate and alone…
But only the thought
to have someone’s love makes me…
To believe, to expect, and to hope for…
Love, do make an apparition in my lonely life…
Fill the emptiness of my heart…
My heart does not know how you will look…
But I am sure my heart
will be loving you always…
For only love can give me happiness…
Forever…
Only love…

~The poems you’ve sent to Me~

I love the poems you send me,
the words reflect your feelings.
I hold my breath from their message,
my heart is always reeling.

Your expressions of love put stars in my eyes,
I hold your words so close
I will remember your words of love,
long after I’m at Heaven’s Post.

You came into my life, when I least expected it;
I thought those days were gone
You brought such warmth into my life;
I’m like a babe reborn.

I could not tell you what you mean to me
in 100 thousand ways,
I know that I will love you more
as I live through all my days.

So thank you much for loving me,
a blessing to me dear,
Into my heart I’ll put that love,
and always have it near.

So come to me, my husband now,
and see the love in my eyes
The love I have for you within my heart
will never be denied.

I love you, Dearest,
you mean so much to me,
You’ll never regret a moment for loving me, you’ll see.
