POETRY : MY LOVE IS YOUR

My love, you're so far from me,
And I pray thee may return;
But until thee do my dear,
I'll let the candle in the window burn.

So that even as thee wanders,
So far from by my side,
The candle, like a beacon,
Shall bring thee in from the evening tide.

I'll let the candle in the window burn,
To cast light upon the shadows I rue,
As I pray thy heart comes back to me,
And the love in your eyes so blue.

In every corner of mind and heart,
Where are the windows of my soul,
I'll leave a candle burning,
Until together we can be whole.

The Gypsy felt the soft touch
of something from the darkness
felt the feelings reach out to her
from where they hid in his heart

He thought she only danced in light
and that he could never be with her
because he feared to leave the darkness
where he felt safe and he could hide his heart

But she ventured into this darkness,
this secret place where only she could find him
she reached out her hand to let him know
that anytime he wanted to come and dance with her

She would lead him into the light
holding him close to her heart
so that he need not fear leaving
his lonely refuge in the dark

Now ss she dances around him
her love weaves a gossamer web
It protects him and softens the brilliance of light
He fears will be too overwhelming to take

She will never give up her dance in the light
but she does not fear to look in the dark
for her love where he hides in his refuge so stark
and hopes he will see what a beautiful sight

It could be if only he would come to the light
that her love wants to bathe him in
through all their days and nights

When he and his Gypsy dance in the light.

When you're asleep, I look at your face
Something comes into my mind from the first time we met
And all those times we shared together
That I always will remember

When you're asleep, I stroke your hair
Telling you I'll always be here
For better or for worse
My dearest, Dear

When you're asleep, I touch and feel the skin of your face
Whatever wounds and pains you have
I'm willing to care for
With all of my heart

When you're asleep, I kiss your lips
Reminding you of my promise of love
A love that will grow and live
Even my life, I'm willing to give

When you're asleep, I hold your fingers together with mine
Different weather may come
Hand in hand we will clear our way
Of all obstacles that block our journe

It's like a butterfly the way you fly through life untouched
Your wings are your thoughts, your eyes the door
You're beauty inside that everyone only wishes to explore
With the colors of your essences, pure like spring
Wrapped with each day you hold and sing
Sweet days, you make the sun come out
And the minutes stand still
Sweet butterfly blinds the wind trailed by the Skye's edge
Creates colors that give and give with feelings that transcend

You have cast on me this romantic spell,
Enchantment of love my mouth could hardly tell.

You have struck my heart with magical hex
And enthralled my soul in unescapable web.

You have bound my spirit with unbending cords,
In close-fitting style you tied me arms and feet.

You have entwined my mind in your net of romance,
Close knitted and tight with unbreakable strings.

With enemies behind to see our joined hearts severed
You wrapped me with love in the shelter of your arms.

With nights filled with dreams, and days full of tips,
You mesmerized my soul with sweet, heavenly bliss.

You caused me to dwell under the grip of your charm
And cast away my fears with whispers of your lips.

Being hypnotized and dazed by the sound of your voice,
You captivate and excite with the magic of romance.

hold me
kiss me
touch me
love me

hold me as if i am your only care in the world
hold me as if you are going to lose me forever

kiss me as if you are tasting life for the first time
kiss me and tell me you will never let me go

touch me as if i am a baby in your arms
touch me with gentleness and selfishness

love me like you have never loved anything before
love me like i love you

There's this thing inside each of us which is so small and yet it plays an important role in everyone's life. Sometimes it beats normally, everything is fine. Sometimes it's music seems so loud that you are afraid that everyone else can hear it.

Tonight, please listen to it's whispers. The sound is so soothing , mesmerizing. Listen to the soft sound trying to tell a story..the voice is so soft, however, that you can hardly hear it.

What is it, dear heart, that you would like to tell me?
Listen..
Someone has touched this heart deep to the core..
to be kept there for always and forever.
With heart, and soul as long as I live,
I will cherish every moment together..
Listen,dearest..
I love you..
I love you..
I love you..
A story as old as time but a feeling as new as the morning dew
The eyes are heavy..
The music stopping..
Dawn is breaking..
But there's a smile on the lips..
Thank you dear heart for this gift..

The myst engulfs
what the moon embraces,

The air turns from musk to sweet,
her eyes of emeralds
and her hair
absorb the beauty of this earth,
and now I am gone from her.

Not gone, but away,
where the truth be told
is in love with me.
Two souls become one
and in my return,
those souls become free.

As I drive along the long narrow road,
My mind is filled with so many wonderous thoughts and sights.
Everything before me is so beautiful, so alive.
The purple majesty of the mountain tops in the distance,
The lush greens of the forest surrounding me...

And the sky!
Oh, the sky!
Tonight it is putting on a most beautiful show,
The palest pink is teasing the deep purple mountain tops
With delicate kisses, edged in a pale mauve.
As ethereal as angel wings.

Wispy white clouds dance around the final rays of the sun
In their last few moments of daylight.
Even the tiny stream with its swirling water
Joins passionately with the sides of it.
The warm brown and deep green banks
Cradle the stream within its loving arms.

My life is so wonderful now,
I can see so much more than before.
So much beauty is displayed before me,
So much love is offered to me,
And my love is wanted also.

My happiness is so intense, so vital,
And all because of you, my darling.
You have allowed me to see, and to feel
All the marvels surrounding me!

Softly breathing,
eyes shut tight,
You lay there dreaming,
In the stillness of the night.

I wonder where you came from,
with your angelic disposition.
I wonder why you're with me,
or are you just a figment of my imagination?

I pray every night
that I can keep you forever more,
until the ending of time
when God shuts the door.

What I'm trying to tell you,
you'll never hear,
for you're off drifting up
on a cloud in the air.

Softly breathing,
eyes shut tight,
You lay there dreaming,
in the stillness of the night.

It's your love
Your way of being there
the smiles, sending kisses,
Romanctic days of passion
Making love in wonder, not bliss

It's your love that conquers all,
Not only conquers but, fills me with
sprit and compassion,
Kowning that you're there in hard timess and good.

Tears fill my eyes, thougths of you leaving
But, a sense of peace claim's one's self
It's your love ................

Whenever you?re near
I feel as though a vise
Were tightening around my heart
Squeezing the breath right out of my lungs
I struggle to act normal
But I desperately want to cry out
Against the crushing pain
That?s gripping my heart
Heartbreak has taken hold of me
And my soul refuses to let it go
Because when you are far
My soul reveals its one vice
Tormenting me with memories of what?s past
Refusing to let go of you
Forget the feel of your touch
Wash away the taste of your kiss
Your face is never out of my sight
And I hear your voice everywhere
My heart and soul seem determined
To remind me that while
You?ve let me go, I?ll never be free of you

Time in small fragments
Capturing moments of
freedom
Release from capture, in
the forest of amazement
Vivid colors of a floral
cascade
In the hidden valley of
love
Wherein I found my place,
and was happy
Interludes in this haven
of caring
In ecstasy with being
free

Time captured in these
delightful interludes
Here among the undergrowth
of sensuous touching
Embracing the dark green
leaves of a rose
A perfection in pink
dazzling my mind
In the persuasion of a
loving entanglement
Among the flowers of
heavenly blue
Interludes of passion
with you

My love is...
An endless ocean, a storm swept sea,
A constant feeling inside of me.
My love is...
A wild passionate emotional ride,
A feeling that my heart cannot hide.
My love is...
A mystical feeling sweeping through my soul,
An earth shattering feeling taking over my body,
wild and out of control.
My love is...
Strong and pure, unconditional and real,
With a tidlewave of emotions that I feel.
My love is...
Deep, reserved and true,
And freely given all to you.
My love is...
yours!

My thirst can only be quenched,
by your charm.
My hunger can only be fed,
by your grace.

This thirst and hunger,
can only be relinquished,
by the feelings of being loved by you.

I'm in a desert,
scratching through the sand,
to reach your oasis.

To shade myself,
in your trees.
To satisfy my hunger,
by feeding off your fruit.
And quench my thirst,
With your lips.
Won't you embrace these,
fragile starving arms?

Love is blind... it sees no ugliness or hate
it is not forced; it is left up to fate
if it is meant to be, god will see it through
so don't go searching for it, let love find you
once love has found you, trust me you will know
your heart will begin to race, and your eyes start to glow
love is not something that will just fade away
it is strong and bold, not just a pretty word you say
this one little word can make the world go round
it can happen any moment without even a sound
