POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Yours, Forever
Love is the wind that lifts our sails,
Guiding us through life's roughest trails.
It's the sun that shines down from above,
Filling our hearts with warmth and love.
It's a gentle touch, a whispered word,
A promise that can never be broken or blurred.
It's the laughter, the tears, the joy, the pain,
The memories that will always remain.
Love is the glue that holds us tight,
The reason we see the world in its light.
It's the courage that gives us strength to fight,
The comfort that makes everything all right.
It's the...
Guiding us through life's roughest trails.
It's the sun that shines down from above,
Filling our hearts with warmth and love.
It's a gentle touch, a whispered word,
A promise that can never be broken or blurred.
It's the laughter, the tears, the joy, the pain,
The memories that will always remain.
Love is the glue that holds us tight,
The reason we see the world in its light.
It's the courage that gives us strength to fight,
The comfort that makes everything all right.
It's the...

Love is a Gift
Love is a flame that burns so bright,
A warm and gentle, shining light.
It brings us joy, it brings us peace,
A feeling like no other release.
It lifts us up when we are low,
And helps us grow, letting us know
That no matter what, we are not alone,
With love, we always have a home.
Love is a mystery, yet so clear,
A bond that lasts throughout the years.
It brings us closer, heart to heart,
A love that sets us worlds apart.
It comes in many forms, so true,
From family love, to love for you.
No matter how...
A warm and gentle, shining light.
It brings us joy, it brings us peace,
A feeling like no other release.
It lifts us up when we are low,
And helps us grow, letting us know
That no matter what, we are not alone,
With love, we always have a home.
Love is a mystery, yet so clear,
A bond that lasts throughout the years.
It brings us closer, heart to heart,
A love that sets us worlds apart.
It comes in many forms, so true,
From family love, to love for you.
No matter how...

Only the Beginning
I've dreamed of the moment when our eyes find each other, have you
A first meeting, the possibility of something new
I feel I know you, though have only seen you through a frame
I have viewed your lovely smile again and again
Thinking of the day when I may hold you in a friendly embrace
I'm hoping the sparks fly and my heart begins to race
The thought of your warm beautiful glow already brings a smile to my face
And comforts me like a gentle breeze as I contemplate the end of a first of many dates
I can only hope the feelings I have are...

I feel I know you, though have only seen you through a frame
I have viewed your lovely smile again and again

I'm hoping the sparks fly and my heart begins to race
The thought of your warm beautiful glow already brings a smile to my face
And comforts me like a gentle breeze as I contemplate the end of a first of many dates
I can only hope the feelings I have are...

Distant Love
Where did you come from
Where have you been
What brought you to me
Can this happen again
I’ve waited so long
To have you so near
Is this love happening
I can see it so clear
Our hearts on a journey
Of endless romance
So, I ask you now
May I have this dance
Please think of me often
As you’re miles away
And may love find us
When we meet one day
Where have you been
What brought you to me
Can this happen again
I’ve waited so long
To have you so near
Is this love happening
I can see it so clear
Our hearts on a journey
Of endless romance
So, I ask you now
May I have this dance
Please think of me often
As you’re miles away
And may love find us
When we meet one day

How do such things happen
With strangers barely known
My mind has begun wondering
About feelings that are beginning to grow
You’re so far away from me
But somehow, I feel you near
Is it fair to bring this up
When I barely know your name
My mind is a mishmash of possibilities
Who knew a heart was capable of such abilities
I haven’t even met you, but I feel our connection
Do you feel it to, or am I headed the wrong direction
So, I leave you now with only words
As this road seems impossible to travel
I look...

Waiting for you my love
Another year has come and gone
I’m still here waiting for you
I’m wondering if I’ve met you already and I just didn’t know who you were
I have all this love for you already and don’t even know your name
Though I’ve imagined a face that has never quite filled in
Are you out there wondering and waiting for me?
As I am out here wondering and waiting for you
I’ve imagined us together and see our past, present and future as though it’s a beautiful memory
Have you seen it? It’s quite beautiful and brings a tear to my eye
Will this love story ever...

Missing love
I'm here waiting, are you there
Is this a solitary journey
I have so much I want to share
Is my heart to be left yearning
I feel your presence everyday
Yet you're not here with me
Is there some price I have to pay
Is my heart not open enough to see
I've searched high and I've searched low
Yet you're nowhere to be found
Is it that I have not searched enough
Are you just not around
What is it in my life that I must do
Where is it that I must travel
To end this search I'm on for you
This...

Please stay
It all started as just this innocent thing
Who could have known just what this innocent thing would bring
These feelings I've held so deep inside
Oh, the wonderment that you have brought to my life
How did you do it I ponder as I think of you often
Wondering how it is you have made this heart soften
As we find ourselves near the end of this journey
I'm not sure I can stand much more of this yearning
I miss you more and more each day
Yet you're still hear and I say nothing but, hello! How are you? Hey!
How do I find the courage to say what...

Crush
Your smile makes me smile,
Your laugh makes me laugh,
Your eyes are enchanting,
You make my thoughts seem daft.
Since the day I first laid eyes on you,
My feelings grew and grew.
In that first conversation my knees clicked and clacked,
And those butterflies flipped and flapped.
And as I spill these simple rhymes,
My mind goes over time and time,
Why didn't you ask me to dance,
During that slow song of endless romance?
I hope this doesn't seem to creepy.
Please don't think my thoughts have flown too freely.
Just know that...

Unspoken
Why do these thoughts I had of us still remain in my head
Of loving emotions left unspoken, so many words left unsaid
What could have been of us I wonder if I would have only found a way
To overcome my bashfulness, somehow make you mine and sweep you away
Do you still think of me as often, would I even stand a chance
Can I somehow offer you my love, start a whirlwind romance
Are you out there waiting for me to offer an overdue gesture
Would it even make a difference now, did I let these feelings overly fester
Your beauty is much more than just...

A heart needs heeling
Most often when I see you it's just a passing glance
Yet it's the part of my day I look most forward too
Your eyes catch mine and I see our entire life's journey
Then I snap back to reality and realize I never said a word
My heart is racing and I think it just skipped a beat
I'm falling further and further and I feel so helpless
What did you do to me that I feel so much emotion
To be near you makes my soul feel complete
Like a thief in the night you stole my heart away
How did you know it was yours for the taking
Please heel me now and don't...

Three words
Like a subtle breeze you blew into my life
Your calm solace nature inspires me often and unexpectedly
How could this be? These feelings washing over me
Like waves crashing against the shore
Your spirit and beauty capture me each time our eyes meet
It's an experience I treasure at every moment
I'm falling deeper and deeper and I have no control
It feels like my head is losing a battle with my heart
At some point I have to tell you how I've felt for so long
Certainly some part of you must already know
So I am here now to say what...
