POETRY: INSIDE YOUR PRECIOUS HEART

I know you've been hurt before
And I see that the pain is still there
Blinding you from all of my love
That your heart just won't fall for.
Fear of your past is no way to live
You have to find a way to trust again
Or how will it end? How will it end?

If you let me
I'll show you true love
The way it's meant to be
If you let me
Inside your precious heart
I'll be yours, exclusively!

So pleased to be a part of you
I often fantasize just us two
And I'm wondering if you do the same
The first time we touched was such a warm embrace
And it won't leave my mind
Girl, what have you done but turned my world upside down.

Why not give love a try?
I can see it in your eyes
I sense you wanting me to come inside, so?

I'll show you the things that you've been yearning for
No matter the time, you won't be ignored
Be the man you've desired and all you adore
Supply all your needs and then give you more

If you let me
I'll show you true love
The way it's meant to be
If you let me
Inside your precious heart
I'll be yours, exclusively!

Baby, my love for you
Has grown out-of-control,
So I promise this to you:
My mind, body, and soul.

My mind, so you can come to me
Whenever you're in pain.
I will cry those tears with you;
It will not be in vain.

My body, so I can hold you
Whenever you're in despair,
So when you feel used and torn,
Remember I'll be there.

My soul, so I can always show
That my love for you runs deep,
And those tender words you spoke to me,
In my heart I'll always keep.

So listen to my vow to you,
Take it into your heart.
Always know that I'll always care
When you've been tossed about.

You can run to me,
As long as you know
That I have promised this to you:
My mind, body, and soul.

I wanted
   so badly
 to cup your face
   with my hands
 and draw myself
   nearer to you
 to be just an inch away
   from your lovely lips
 to gaze into your eyes
   for just one moment
 and then to cover your lips
   with mine
   for many, many moments

I feel the rain falling all around me,
Sitting alone I think of your sweet lips
Lustfully against mine,
Wishing you were here with your arms solidly around me,
I feel damp coldness rush throughout my body.

I look and see a figure, a hand reaches out for me,
I stand to look you in the face,
Could this be?
You embrace me into your warm chest,
I feel absorbed by your body.

As you slowly lean down to kiss me,
It feels like eternity until you lay your lips onto mine,
I feel my eyes twinkle from pure delight
And close them so I can entrance my body and mind
To remember this moment forever.

If I had my way, there would be no clocks, watches or calendars;
No places we have to go, or things we have to do -
Just an eternity of weekends and days together.
Time enough to take long looks into those beautiful  eyes,
And walks through the park with you.

Time enough to talk and listen and hold you in a lingering embrace.
If I had my way, there would finally be enough time to love you
The way I want to love you, the way you deserve to be loved -
                                           totally and endlessly..

It has been years since the last time I truly loved
                  Years of hardship and sorrow
                  Years of waiting and hoping for that someone
                  who can't possibly be mine

                  I cried once, twice, or thrice
                  Cried and cried like a baby...
                  Cried till my tears could no longer
                  shed my distress
                  Cried still, inside myself, so desperate
                  that she would love me back.

                  Nothing can be done...what more can I do
                  Should I continue this or just give myself
                  a breathing-space?
                  Love dictates to wait but my mind dictates
                  to let go...
                  These two things that must be considered,
                  practically equate to love
                  So, all I did was to let go and be happy
                  for my dear friend
                  Even though my heart bleeds for misery,
                  failure, and despair.

                  Time has passed, life has moved on...
                  My wounds were healed by acceptance, comfort,
                  and contentment
                  Sacrifices have been made...truly hard to do.
                  What more can I wish but for me to overcome
                  these fears?
                  Fear of loving, of trusting and of hoping.
                  Contemplating the past years...
                  has given me the best answer,
                  Real and true...time changes everything.

The ocean waves crash softly onto shore
And the sun creeps silently into the sky
And I open my eyes slowly to see you
Right beside me
I softly touch your tender skin 
And as I do comes the whisper of the wind
As it glides softly thru to brace your face
And then climbs thru your hair 
And crawls upon my face
I feel the sensation of your love
As the wind lies down slowly to rest upon my face
And I breath in deeply 
And your love is quickly spread thru my body
Everything freezes but the time
And soon it is night again
And I look into your eyes
To see the stars of the night
Reflected in your eyes
And I kiss your lips
Slowly we fall asleep again
In each other's arms
To again repeat the sense of your love
And as I close my eyes
The wind glides over your mouth and collects
And then brushes past my ears to echo the words
I love you
