Echoes in Silence: A Journey Through the Heart «Previous Page
POETRY (FICTION) (0)
Dohboi 03 May 2008

This is my poetry, always original, always fresh and new!

Daddy's Here

In your eyes I see the sun
shining down on me.
From your heart I feel the love
like it was supposed to be.
I cherish every single moment
that we have together.
The memories I have will
surely last forever.
But it won't stop there
we are gonna make more.
I send my apologies to you
For having to walk out the door.
But soon you'll understand
that it's better this way.
It would never have worked
all we created was dismay.
But that is in the past
it's over now.
A bright new future
is coming somehow.

We can make it happen
the two of us, my son.
No one can intervene
we can make a home.
No one can be loved more
than you are by me.
When you're older you'll know
you made my life complete.
You are the one who made me change
the way I go about.
My life, it has changed drastically
and right now there is no doubt.
I can't truly begin to express
My love for you will NEVER die.
If you only knew what you mean to me
you are the star that brightens my sky.
You make me whole, you are my alpha
you shine down upon me.
I believe my heart beats for you
someday I know you'll see.
Right now you're too young
to know what's going on here.
I think you'll know soon enough
exactly how much I care.
So when you wander, wondering
why daddy's not around
Just pick up the phone and call
hear my voice , an amazing sound.
And daddy will be there for you
whenever you are in need.
With you out there rooting for me
I know I will succeed.



My Destiny

What was the reason I was sent on this earth
What was so substantial about my birth
For what reason am I here
When around every corner there is something to fear
What is the point if I am going to die
Would someone please tell me the reason why
What's there to do that hasn't already been done
What prize can I win that hasn't already been won
What can I say that hasn't already been said
What is the point if we all end up dead
the meaning of life is something hard to find
Maybe that's my point, maybe it's in my mind
Am I supposed to answer the unanswerable questions in life
Am I supposed to know how people can live without strife
Am I supposed to live my life without any pain
Am I supposed to thank God when we get rain
Am I supposed to keep my head up when times get tough
Am I supposed to get stronger when the going gets rough
I wish I could say I'm as strong as they come
But even I have weaknesses everyone has some
How will I know when it is my turn to go
Tomorrow or the next day tell me how will I know
If I can't know that then answer me this
Will my life end with one last tender kiss
I hope for my sake that the last breath I take
I'm kissing my lady good-bye and giving her a keepsake
And I'm letting her know that I'll be watching over
Keeping her safe and sound staying above her shoulder
And If so there happens to be little ones left behind
Let them know that their daddy will always have them on his mind
Until the time comes when together again we will be
I just want you to know, I have found my destiny......



Little Shoes

part 2 to My Destiny

I'm bursting with emotion
My happiness will not quit
Look at this smile on my face
Haven't you even noticed it
There's a beating in my heart
I think again I am in love
With not just anyone you see
With an angel sent from above
Through the heaven's and the clouds
This wonderful angel came to earth
This was the reason I was sent here
This is what's so substantial about my birth
It is you see for us to be
Together for all to see
And if anyone has a problem with that
Tell them to come and talk to me
Don't you even realize yet
What you've gone and done
You've sent my world twirling around
But still first place you have won
So if anyone still doesn't know
Let me fill you in on the news
I cried myself to a joyous sleep
The night I first saw those little shoes!

March 8th was like a new beginning for me
It showed me a brand new start
Because now I'd have to share my love
And from him I would never part
My one true love you see
It is a bouncing baby boy
I'll try my best to make him proud
Because he brings me so much joy
It feels a little funny in a way
To know that I am someone's Dad
I guess I haven't been the worst
But better I could have been
You can bet that will never, ever
Be the case again
My son, my handsome little man
Is number one on my list
I know I might not show it much
But we could be like a fist
Clenched so tight, but gently intertwined
Together for all time
I hope the one who counts on me most
Never has to ask for a dime!
But most important I hope to be
The best father that I can
My son is very dear to me
I just love his little hands
His little nose is just so cute
My heart melts when he smiles
To think that I helped produce him
My smile is as big as the Nile
I just hope my son knows deep down
Exactly how it is I feel
I want him to know
For him, my love is sealed
Anything he needs just ask
I'm here for you my son
Someday I know it will be time for you
To carry on our name when I am gone
But until that day comes
I'll know I've paid my dues
I'll enjoy and cherish my life with you
And still I smile at those little shoes!!!!!



Message To A Deadbeat Dad


I know you weren't there the day I was born.
And I know you weren't there when they brought me home.
I also know you weren't there to see me drink my first bottle.
And of course you haven't seen my cute little bottom.
Do you even know what I look like,do I look like mom or you.
I'll bet you don't even know what my name is, you don't have a clue.
I crawled yesterday all the way across the room, you missed it.
I got my first tooth, it poked through just today, but you missed it.
I almost got this standing thing down, but you aren't here.
Yesterday I had my first taste of ice cream, but you weren't there.

It's been awhile now and mom is really tough you know.
To do this all alone, she must be really strong i know.
I can tell she loves me more than you ever will
Because she's here with me, holdoing me, kissing me but still.
I think it's just not fair, my friends have their dad there.
But no, I got stuck with you and I still say it's not fair.
Why couldn't mom be lucky enough to find a man worth a damn.
Instead she ended up with you,a worthless excuse for a man.
I pray all the time maybe she'd meet someone new.
Someone who could take us to the park, so mom wouldn't be so blue.
She tries so hard to raise me right, she deserves some time too.
All this time you've had to yourself, it's not fair,I'm telling you.
Most guys won't give mom the time of day when they see me around.
It's hard for mom, I know, I can see the frustration hanging down.

Well I'm older now, but don't worry I didn't miss you at all.
I've been to amusement parks, movies, and even to the mall.
I've been to football games,baseball games, and to the park, mom took me to those.
I bet it's rough knowing you have to wear the pants as well as the pantyhose.
I guess I've said enough for now,just wanted you to know I am alive.
Oh yeah! before I forget, I had a birthday last week,can you believe it now I'm Five!!!!!



Mommy Why?

you said you would never go away,
you said you would always care
so why are you holding hands with God
why are you way up there
mother told me there was an accident
she said you were hurt real bad
"but don't worry" she said to me
"you don't have to be so sad"
you are not here anymore I don't understand
tell me what happened,where, how, and why
"dry your eyes" mom tells me as hers begin to swell
i can't help it i miss you, why did you have to die
mom says not to use that word
because that's not the case at all
she tells me that i'm too young to know
then to her knees she begins to fall..
but still i tell her you're not coming home
she still says that's not true
why does it have to be like this
why did it have to be you...
"but don't fear" mom says "he's not gone for long"
he's really here inside our hearts, he's not far away
can you understand the pain i feel
when she says we'll be a family again one day
please dear god take good care of him
don't let him out of your sight
i promise i'll be here for you if you need me
and i'll pray for you night after night
do you know that mom still wont say
how the whole thing had occurred
all that she'll say about it
is that it was all a massacre
i heard the police tell mom the name of the other man
i couldn't hear it too well but his initials were d.u.i.
still to this day i have no idea who he is
i know you want me to live, a long, lasting, fulfilled life
maybe someday mom will explain to me
what that big word meant
i think it was some sort of legal term
driving under the influence.

mom has finally given in
she has finally told me the truth
she said a drunk driver jumped the curb
while you were standing at a phone booth
she said you tried to get away
but it happened much too fast
I cant believe you are actually gone
i dont believe you are in the past
mom says we should only look
at the good times that we had
yelling, fighting, running, playing
i am no longer sad i'm mad
this man took you away from me
and there's nothing i can do
I think of you every night while i'm asleep
you should know that i will never forget you
given all the good times
and the bad times we shared
i don't ever recall telling you
exactly how much i cared
please forgive me i know
that must be the hardest part
i can't believe in the blink of an eye
lives can be ripped apart
so if your there and you can hear
please tell me what to do
without you here i am so lost
please don't ever forget I LOVE YOU!!!



Someday

Someday there will be no race wars.
Someday there will be no drug lords.
Someday there will be no homicides.
Someday there will be no tears cried.
someday there will be no black on black crime.
Someday there will be no muggings for a dime.
Someday there will be no victims of rape.
Someday there will be no hard memories to drape.
Someday there will be no police to call.
Someday there will be no violence at all
That's because......

Someday there will be no people to share.
Someday there will be no loved ones who care.
Someday there will be no Holiday Inns.
Someday there will be no reason to start again.
Someday there will be no enemies at war.
Someday there will be no scrapes torn.
Someday there will be no holiday picnics.
Someday there will be no funny limericks.
Someday there will be no time for fun.
Someday there will be no time to run.
Someday there will be no one else but us.
Someday there will be no dirt or dust.
Someday there will be no room for you to care.
Someday there will be no way for me to bare.
Someday there will be no time for me to call.
Someday there will be no way for us at all.....
The time is now!!!



Til' the End

It's hard to believe after all this time
You've decided to go away
I know it's not your choice but you left so quick
And here I sit with so much to say
I wanted to say what you mean to me
How my life would be crazy without you
You showed me the way I want to live my life
Always to my heart I will stay true
You made me believe in miracles
You made me believe in myself
You showed me the way to live and learn
You helped me out of my shell
So where will I be now that you're gone
Just like a whisper in the wind
What will I do without you here
To guide me through the thick and thin
I want you to know you will surely be missed
My life will never ever be the same
I promise to you I will do my best
To always stay ahead of the game
When it's my time to leave and never come back
I'm gonna for sure follow your lead
I'll be coming to see you there
I just hope I've done enough good deeds
To make it to where I know you've gone
Might be a little tricky for me
But whatever it is I got to do
You better believe I will succeed
It's hard to believe I can't see your face
I can't feel you or give you a hug
It's gonna be rough to go on like this
You know you are like a drug
One hit of you is all it took
And now I am addicted
But here I stand alone again
My love is now fully restricted
I'll try my best to move on with my life
Because I know that's what you'd want
I'll be seeing you every night
You know it's my dreams you haunt
So here it is the end of the line
I'm sorry it was such a bumpy ride
But look at all the fun we had
Even the bad times when "we" cried
Just one last thing I want you to know
You were always my dearest friend
And no matter what I was here for you
From the beginning to the very end!!!!



I Love You!


I want you to know how much I care
Whenever you need me please know I'll be there
Maybe not in the flesh but by your side I'll be seen
You meant the world to me, you and our baby to be
Even though I'm way up here I'm watching down on you
I'm your shoulder to cry on, when your feeling sad and blue
I'll always be with you,, no matter day or night
Just put my smiling face on your mind, and everything is alright
You just take care of our boy, and raise him best you can
Teach him to be a strong, sensitive, caring, and understanding man
Let him know his daddy is there for him always
And there's nothing more satisfying, than to know I am for whom you pray
God is watching over me now as you did in the past
That's how I know for sure our love was meant to last
I might not have said it enough but baby I love you
You were so very dear to me, and your love was so true
Tell our son what kind of man I was and what kind of man I expect him to be
Let him know that no matter what he decides, I'll be as proud of him as I hope he is of me
I want you to know that you were my "one"
I am very sorry I had to go before our life together,begun
I see now our baby boy has been born into our world
I hope you realize such a cute boy couldn't happen to a better girl
You are my dream whenever I rest my eyes
And I can't stop the pain no matter how i try
But reguardless how I feel or what I'm dreaming of
You never have to worry about if you're loved
Until again we are one, and for an eternity above
The only one for me is you and it's only you I love..



I'll see ya when I get there!

Dedicated to the memory of Lawrence Davis R.I.P.


I never really thought about how my life would end,
I Know for sure that I don't want to suffer like some of my friends.
Violence strikes the ones you love, and there's no reason why,
Multiple knife wounds to my friend and instantly he died.
I wish someone would tell me how can a man take a life,
Why couldn't he be man enough to use his fists instead of a knife.
This way the problem is solved and no one has to die,
There would be no funeral or wake, and noone would have to cry.
Then the hearse wouldn't have to take him to his final rest,
But believe it or not he is happier now for he walks among the best.
Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, and Willie Mays, would all be so proud,
He held a baseball with dignity and pride and fans would scream aloud.
With Larry gone I guess someone should step up to the plate,
Pinch hit for Larry because there is no time to waste.
It's the bottom of the ninth with bases loaded, and we are down by three,
So unless anyone disagrees the pinch-hitter will be me.
I have no fear, because it's do or die, the game is on the line,
I'm in the box with a full count, "win this for Larry" is the cry.
Here's the pitch, I take a cut, there's a blast to right field,
It's going, going, it's back to the wall, he jumps with no yield.
It's over his glove, it's gone, a home run, touch 'em all time,
I touch all four we won and it's stored within my mind.
Well Larry I put myself in your shoes to see how it would be,
To get the win, cross the plate, be the king of victory.
But it's over now, the dream is gone, there's no use for me here,
But I'm going to stay a while, so I'll see ya when I get there...



Love or War

Some say the best things in life come to those who wait
But what if the best is not apart of your fate
How do you overcome adversity in this day in age
How can you win a war without showing your rage
If depression is a disease then why doesn't it ever go away
How can we fight the pain and live day after day
What is this world coming to when no one cares about life
I thought love could conquer all I guess not the power of a knife
Love is supposed to be the greatest feeling of all
So why is there war why do good people fall
I can take it no more I'm going insane
I can't fight the words racing through my brain
I have to get out of here where the hell is the door
But please heed these words of wisdom, make love not war!!!!



The Lion and the Mouse

While walking in the jungle one day
I came up to a lion to my dismay
The lion was sitting there pouting with tears
He said this was the worse he has felt in years.
For while he was walking home from a swim
Out jumped a mouse who tried to frighten him.
But he wasn't even the slightest bit scared
In fact he laughed to think this little mouse dared.
"Come on how could I be afraid of something so small,
I am so big, and you, Ha, not at all."
So on went the lion back to his home
He would rest for a bit then again he will roam.
Little did he know that while he slept
The mouse concocked a plan, he creeped and he crept.
He did all the things he could do for his size
The giraffe even helped with the plan he devised.
The mouse wanted to teach that big guy a lesson
Even though he was small, lion didn't know with who he was messin'.
The mouse was a smart one, not at all dumb
And he knew to himself that his day would come.
So this plan he thought of to put the lion in his place
"I can't wait just to see the look on his face,
When I finally scare him and get him good,
I hope he will at last give me the credit he should!"
This plan he conjured up would work like a charm
Never did he think it would cause any harm.
He decided that he would get all the animals included
Then he'll know his sceme can not be eluded.
So when the lion awoke from his nap
Walked out of his cave and hit up a tree for it's sap.
He took a stroll down by the river
It was a little nippy now, he started to shiver.
Walked past the great tree and into a clearing
He had no idea that the mouse would be so daring
For as soon as he came to the middle of the pasture
He felt a slight tremor that became stronger and faster.
He stopped, to hear the not so distant sound
He jumped back with a jerk and looked all around.
He stood there amazed not believing what he saw
But every animal in the jungle, every tooth and paw
He was confused but in an instant instinct took over
He pounced on his first victim with a mighty roar.
He wasted no time, he went straight to the next one
There was no one left standing by the time he was done.
When the lion settled down and he saw it was clear
That little mouse peaked his head out and exclaimed "oh Dear"
With a frightened look on his face he said
"Ohh Look what I've done, all my friends are dead"
The lion said calmly" It isn't your fault son,
I am the king of the jungle, of course I have won"
"But you don't understand this is all my doing."
The lion looked confused as to what the mouse was persuing.
" I asked all my friends to help with a favor,
To help me scare you good, so victory I could savor.
But I never meant for this to happen to them
And now I will sadly never see them agian."
Well by now the Lions eyes had began to water
"You mean to tell me, For nothing was this slaughter?"
The mouse agreed and prayed for his compassion
The lion replied in a most peculiar fashion.
He turned around and left that dreaded place
All the Carnage he caused he could no longer face
He dragged himself back to his humble dwelling
All the while his eyes were swelling.
Then he lay there with bloodshot eyes
Forcing himself with all he had, not to cry.
And that's when I came strolling through
While he was sitting here pondering what to do.
He said " I'm not an evil kind of lion,
I do what Nature tells me, and I'm not lying"
I bid ado to my new found friend
And walked the path straight to the end
I'll never forget that day you see
I wouldn't believe it , if it didn't happen to me.
So next time you are out and about
And you come across someone about to pout
Please sit down and listen to their story,
Because you never know when, it will be your turn for glory.
And as for a lesson to be learned from this massacre,
Never, ever ever try and trick mother nature!!!



A Heart Doesn't Lie!


It doesn't matter what time of day
When asked whats on my mind ,its you Ill say
If you ask me I think its time to show
If you really care then please let me know
Just tell me whether it's me you want to see
Ill be happy to abide by whatever answer you give me
I thought it would be fair to tell you now
I'm not giving up on you for no one, no how
Because in my heart you are the one I need
You are like a blessing sent from heaven, indeed
And in my eyes you can do no wrong
Just take me now, cause later I might be gone
Have you ever had perfection stare you down
I have once and thankfully you still come around
Sometimes I feel that I'm not good enough for you
Sometimes I feel like I don't know what to do
But whatever happens my heart holds the key
My heart is full of love, don't you realize don't you see
You are the one I feel so deeply for
You are the one from whom I want more
Theres only one explanation for how I feel
Its because in my heart it says its for real
Theres no way to fight it so why even try
Just trust me baby cause a heart doesn't lie!!!



ALL THE THINGS!


All the things I need to do
Just to make you smile
All the things I need to do
For you stay for more than a while
All the things to prove to you
Exactly how I feel
All the things to prove to you
Without a doubt it's real
All the things to make you say
"I love it when you do..."
All the things to make you say
"I am so glad it's you"
All the things that make you cry
From them I'll stay away
All the things that make you cry
You can forget about them today
All the things to say how much
I miss you when you're not here
All the things to say how much
I'm happy when you're near
All the things that haven't been said
Like" I love you, didn't you know"
All the things that haven't been said
Together as one we will grow
All the things your ex wouldn't do
like be a man and comfort you
All the things your ex wouldn't do
Like someday together say "I do"
All the things that we could be
Together as one forever
All the things that we could be
Forever as one together
All the things I want to give
So far my heart is yours
All the things I want to give
It's you my heart adores
All the things that life beholds
United we will overcome
All the things that life beholds
Finally first place I have won
All the things to end a psalm
You are my soul mate
All the things to end a psalm
You're so amazing and great



Angels


In a world where pain comes easy
And heartbreak happens everyday.
Could Angels be watching over
Guarding everyone who prays.
Just as the sun shines down
And the rain falls at our feet.
Angels are always there
Showing no signs of deceit.
Proving that God hears all
Prayers as they are made.
He just knows how to answer
So it doesn't turn into a parade.
There is too much greed in the world
For him to do such a thing.
He has to draw the line somewhere
To make those Angels sing.



Believe!

Staring out the window
Out into the starry night.
I can see my breath on the glass
And it's kind of blurring my sight.
The snow outside is beautiful
But for me it's way to cold.
It might be just as cold inside
Sitting here with no one to hold.
I believe in destiny and fate
And I know there is someone for me.
I only wish it would happen soon
It seems like a waste, being this lonely.
But I have to believe in the power of love
If I lose all faith what do I have then.
I must keep a strong hold of my sanity
It's hard, not knowing for sure when.
When I'll get my chance at love
When I'll find my heart.
Loneliness, it tears you up inside
It slowly makes you fall apart.
It tends to dwindle down your faith
Makes you fall down to your knees.
Put your hands together tightly
And pray to the Lord "please".
Please help me find a happy song
Help me sing loud and rejoice.
Shout out to the heaven''s Angels
Hopefully they can hear my voice.
If I can find the one for me
Then maybe I can still believe.
In everything happiness stands for
And all the love I'll finally recieve.
So if your out there listening
Please tell me what I can do.
To show you I'll be the perfect choice
And keep your skies a bright blue.
So whenever you feel lonely
Just pick up the phone and call me.
I'll never be the one to let you down
Together we can create a destiny...



But......

I haven't even seen your face
But I love you!
I haven't felt your warm embrace
But I love you!
We haven't spent any quality time
But I love you!
I can't even say you are mine
But I love you!
You don't even know I exist
But I love you!
I couldn't be the one you miss
But I love you!
I haven't even crossed your path
But I love you!
We don't know if we attract
But I love you!
We have yet to touch our lips
But I love you!
To taste each others sweet kiss
But I love you!
You don't even know I'm alive
But I love you!
You don't know how much I tried
But I love you!
I've done all I can to make you see
That I love you!
And now I see you can't see me
But I love You!



Closer....

I have decided it is time to say.
What I've been thinking about for days.
The one I can't get out of my mind.
But when I see her confidence I can't find.
What if I tell her, and she shoots me down.
Could I deal with the hurt I'll feel all around.
I'm just not sure I can handle the rejection.
Not from someone who shows me such perfection.
Her green eyes sparkle every time I look into them.
I just can't seem to find the source from which this feeling stems.
I can Imagine the two of us being as one.
Everyday would be brighter thanks to my sun.
If I could give her the world, I would with no doubt.
Then she would see what I am all about.
Lying and cheating are not in my vocabulary.
Honesty and faithfulness are, on the contrary.
I don't see the need to tell a lie.
When the immediate truth can cause less of a cry.
Could it be though that you might feel the same.
Maybe you just need a push in my direction, and out of the rain.
If it happens between us I want it to last.
I don't want to end up being in your past.
I want to be your present, your future, your everything.
Let the heavens rejoice and the angels sing.
We could make music together, how sweet it could be.
If only the way I look at you made you believe.
Someday it will happen I feel it inside.
These feelings I have are becoming harder to hide.
When I finally let you know that this "Her" is you.
Please don't turn my skies dark from blue.
Even if you don't feel like I do, it will be all right.
Either way I'll be happy I brought the truth to light.
My timing might be off but i have to get it out.
I can't hold it inside I can't leave any doubt.
I feel the burn, the yearning to be free.
I feel the need to make you see.
Maybe for once I'll get lucky in love.
Maybe just once I'll find a turtle dove.
But what ever happens, happens I guess.
All I can do is just hope and pray for the best.



Come My Way


No matter how hard I try
The light I cannot find
It seems to me right now today
That I may need to pray.
My hope is dwindling down to zero
I wish I would be rescued by a hero.
Someone to rush in and save me now
I just need more than a possible, somehow.
I can't get anything right
Everything i do is wrong.
No one cares that my heart cries
Or that I may sing a sad song.

If only luck would come today.
And all my troubles washed away.
I could be happy, I could indeed.
I could be happy if I succeed.
I just need something to go right.
I try and try with all my might.
To make it happen for myself.
And put all my worries on the shelf.
Only if luck would come my way
And show me how sweet life can be.
I'd be so happy for a fresh start
I'd make sure to always believe.



Echoes


I hear echoes of your voice
And it's driving me insane.
But only I am at fault here
Only I am to blame.
I should have told you sooner
I should have said how I feel.
Then maybe things would be different
Right now things seem surreal.
I've come clean of all my feelings
And I've even tried to pretend.
That they don't exist anymore
Then my heart wont have to mend.
Every time I turn around
You are standing there.
With a smile on your face
Showing me you care.

Am I just dreaming
Or is it just real to me.
Can anybody else know
Can anyone else see.
I just can't help but wonder
What it would feel like you and I.
Then I just can't help but wish
We could give it just one try.
Just looking into your eyes
Puts a smile on my face.
It's something I look forward to
When we meet in our little place.
When our eyes meet at last
I try to hide it deep down.
But looking at your smile
Could never make me frown.



Harmony

Tell me what you want me to do.
Everything I do I do it for you.
I believe in you, you had the right stuff from the start.
Please don't go and start tearing up my heart.
I need a girl to be true to me.
So can we talk, and see what we could be.
Lately, I've been thinking, what about us.
All my life I've been looking for trust.
I could be your secret admirer, watching from a distance.
One shot is all I need to show you romance.
The glory of love is what I'm searching for.
I think I found it in you, I adore mi amore.
You make me feel like a rock star.
Somewhere out there we are wishing on the same star.
You are the one I've been needing in my life.
I just can't fight this feeling of making you my wife.
One word that comes to mind when you're near me.
Absolutely, positively, undeniably, so amazing.
Please forgive me if I seem prone to strain and strife.
These confessions seem to be the story of my life.
Tell me what I have to do to earn.
The love of a lifetime and stop the burn.
Usually I'm not shy, I'm usually a real go getta.
There's just something about you that could make me better.
You're truly beautiful, inside and out.
I can show you what this love is all about.
When nights are cold and your heart feels scorn.
I wanna be your teddy bear, the one to keep you warm.
If there's a way for me to get into your open arms.
I'll keep on loving you and keep you from harm.
But if there's no chance for us then just take my heart.
Yesterday will feel like ages ago if we are apart.
When I look into your eyes I sense a similar feeling.
The love of a lifetime we could have, sounds so appealling
So this I promise you as we both stand right here.
I'll never break your heart, and I'll always care.
I'm ready to fall in love tonight.
I'll live my life for you, it's only right.
You have the lips of an angel, kissable and sweet.
So just say it, so at last our lips can meet......



Heal the Wounds


Heal the wounds of the heart
Don't let them break you down.
Try and remember when it was good
Don't let them make you frown.
The heart has its weaknesses
Don't let that break you apart.
Always keep your head held high
Don't let anything conquer your heart.
The lifeline that keeps you going
Don't let them keep you afraid.
The pulse should stay strong
Don't let it slowly slip away.
The sun shines down upon your face
Don't let the light go to darkness.
The glass is always half full
Don't let them show you emptiness.
Keep the sparkle in your eyes
Don't let them lose their shine.
Remember how it used to be
Don't let them change your mind.
You have to keep your faith
Don't let them steal it from you.
And life will show you the way
That time will heal your wounds.



I Can't......


I can't take you on a cruise around the world
I can't buy you diamonds, I can't buy you pearls.
I can't take you all the places you want to go
I can't buy you platinum, or even gold.
I can't fly you across the sea to Spain
When it's sunny outside, I can't make it rain.
When it's storming out I can't make the sunshine
I'll tell you what I could do if you were mine.
I can do my best to give you that perfect love
A love that makes your heart melt, like you've been dreaming of.
I could show my unaffected loyalty to you and only you
A loyalty to make sure your wildest dreams come true.
Why sell your soul for something not even close
When I've been right here saying what you deserve most.
I might not be Superman or even a GQ
But for your heart there's nothing I wouldn't do.
I would swim the deepest ocean, mountains are no match for me
If only one day you would finally come to see.
I could be your knight in shining armor, your prince on a white horse
And I would live for you, for a hero it's par for the course.
If ever you come to realize that our hearts were meant to be as one
Nothing can stand in our way after our life together has begun.
But you must first come to face the cold hard facts
Until you do I am afraid my nights and days will stay black.
Only you can bring the sun and shine it upon my face
Until the day we at last become entangled in that warm embrace....



I Can't See


I can't see happiness
I can't see the shining sun
I can't see the prize
Waiting to be won.
I can't see the stars
I can't see your eyes
I can't see myself
Ever saying good-bye.
I can't see your face
I can't see your smile
I can't see myself not
Going that extra mile.
I can't see your pain
I can't see your heart melt
I can't see the love just
waiting to be felt.
I can't see my dreams
I can't see your cares
I can't see any way
For you to be there.
I can't see the dark
I can't see the light
I can't see myself
Missing you every night.
I can't see the rain
I can't see the moon
I can't see myself
Living without you.
I can't see your flaws
They mean nothing to me
I can't see the day
Without any possibility.



I Don't Know Your Name!


I don't know your name
But you are all I see
How could it come to this
How could this happen to me
Where did it come from
This feeling deep inside
It's getting harder still
For me to try and hide
The emotions flow through me
Like waters raging wild
Every single solitary time
I see on your face a smile
I tried once to talk to you
But cupid had a choke hold
He made the words get stuck
Or maybe I'm not that bold....
There will come a day in time
When both our hearts will intertwine
Even though you don't realize
The glow that shines through your eyes
And shines upon me like the sun
I can't wait until we've finally begun
But only time will tell the tale
If ever we get a chance to sail
Way above the clouds silver lined
One day when you are mine
But sadly there's only one to blame
Because I don't even know your name.......!



I Never Said......

I never said I love you
I always assumed you knew.
I never said I cared for you
I didn't think it was something new.
But now I look back to then
And realize what you missed.
I'm sorry for neglecting to say
All the things before we kissed.
I know I may have hurt you
By not saying what my heart felt.
Now It's too late, you've gone away,
And It's my heart's turn to melt.
I'll never make that mistake again
I'll never think she already knows.
I'll do all the little things like,
Here Sweetie, from my heart, a rose.
I'll make her feel like there is no other,
I'll do the best I can.
So whenever someone asks her
She'll be proud to say I'm her man.
I'll be the man I was supposed to be
The better man I am with her.
We'll make time fly so quickly
Having fun makes it all a blur.
I'll never forget you though
You made me realize my faults.
I'll never let myself again,
Be the reason another woman walks.
The next time she decides to leave
At least I'll know it wasn't me.
I'll be the perfect man to her
For all eyes to open wide and see.
So if you're out there somewhere
Coming home isn't something to dread.
I'll promise you'll love it this time,
It's time to say those things I never said!!!!!



If Tomorrow Never Comes

Have you told the ones you love,
Exactly how far your love for them goes.
Have you showed the ones you care for
You love them even through your woes.
Have you told the ones you need,
That your life wouldn't be the same.
Without them touching your soul,
The ones who always kept you sane.
You should tell the ones you care for,
Every time you get the chance.
Exactly what they mean to you,
And how your life, they enhanced.
Tomorrow isn't promised to anyone,
What happens when you don't open your eyes.
Or if you do open them widely,
Only you're looking down from the skies.
So If tomorrow never comes,
Will they know how much you cared,
Will they know how much you loved them,
And how much you wish you were there.
To hold them tightly in your arms,
And give them your undying love.
Before you make your journey,
To the Heaven's up above.
No matter what it takes from you,
You must bare to them your soul.
Because if tomorrow never comes,
They will know they made you whole.
So cherish all the moments,
That we get to spend together.
If tomorrow never comes,
Then at least we had forever!



I'm Looking


Someone once told me
"Love comes when you least expect it"
What if mine left once already,
Now should i regret it.
How come I just can't
Seem to find my one.
It seems I am forever doomed
To live without the sun.
I look around only to see
Happy couples all about.
Then I look in the mirror
Only me I see trying not to pout.
I know I'm a good man
No one can take that away.
But why can't I find my love
Now I find only dismay.
There are girls out there
That seem to like me though.
But no disrespect, they are
Not right for this Boi of Doh.
I know what I want
I won't settle for less.
Maybe that's why to me
My life is such a mess.
But don't I deserve happiness
To be loved whole-heartedly.
I really thought I had it once
She left now we're apart you see.
I can't seem to understand
Why I can't be happy.
With all those fish in the sea.
Why wont any swim with me.
How many times can I pray
To help me in my quest.
I just can't take any girl
She has to be the best.
I work hard to make a life
That my son and I could enjoy.
But it gets so lonely,romantically
Right now it's just me and my baby boy.
I need someone to make me whole
Compliment my life with theirs.
Someone who will show their love
And will always show she cares.
A woman who stimulates
My body as well as my mind.
Who is loving, caring, confident,
Sexy, honest, faithful and kind.
When my life comes to an end
By my side she will be.
Telling me God will be there
To watch over me.
Saying she loved me
Truly from the start.
Knowing from the very beginning
She stole away my heart.
So this is what I'm looking for
the woman of my dreams.
A love to last our lifetimes
Making reality what it seems.
I'm looking for true love
Someone who could be my best friend.
Someone to love me solely
From the first kiss till the end!!!!



In the Air


There must be something in the air tonight,
Something that makes us all stay wound tight.
Something that shakes us down to our soul,
Something that makes us lose all self control.

There must be something in the air today,
something that may very well show the way.
Something to take away all our fears,
Something that may even bring us tears.

There must be something in the air of the night,
Something that makes the moon no longer shine bright.
Something that hides away the bright stars,
Something that makes us realize just how far they are.

There must be something in the air up there,
Something to make us believe we can go on from here.
Something that will never deny our hearts desire,
Something that will never extinguish our fire.

There must be something in the air we breathe,
Something out there to make us truly believe.
Something that knows we have to attain victory,
Something that knows everything we can't see.

There must be something in the air we can't see,
Something that keeps us warm, safe and secure indeed.
Something that prepares us for the rest of our days,
Something that recognizes the struggles we face.

There must be something in the air to believe in,
Something to help win the tribulations we compete in.
Something that makes us push harder forward still,
Something that knows we have much power of will.

There must be something in the air we can't smell,
Something that knows, otherwise this place would be hell.
Something that believes in us as a community,
Something that thinks we deserve immunity.

There must be something in the air thats not undone,
Somehting that shows us there are prizes to be won.
Something that will always lead the way to first place,
Something that will always help you save face.

There must be something up there in the air,
Something thats truly believe as humans we all care.
Something that shows us how to keep our soul clean,
Something that proves God exists in more than our dreams...



Just Say the Word


I would do anything just say the word
I'd give you the world if only I could
You'd have it all, all the riches in life
I'd love you always, you know I would.
I can't help but wonder if your feelings are true
Because I know there's more than you show
Well mine are so real, I can hardly sleep
That's the main thing I want you to know
I'd give you all I am, and all I could be
And i know in my heart my life is you
I'd give my love to you in so many ways
Sometimes you can't tell but I promise it's true
For you I would swim across the widest sea
For you I would fly in a rocket straight to the moon
For you I would climb the highest mountain
I just hope in your life, there is enough room
There's no end to the things I would do
There's no boundries on the love we could share
There's no reason for living, if you won't be here
I wish I knew the best way to show I care
I'm clueless right now, i don't know what to do
You are my guiding light, show me the way
I need directions, I'm lost if I don't have you
There's so much I want to do, so much I want to say
Whenever you smile a chill runs through me
Whenever I thik of you my heart skips a beat
I can't eat, I can't sleep my stomach is in knots
Whenever you speak, oh, it's such a treat
I wish you could believe me when I say
That I could love for eternity
I wish you knew, what I've known since the first day
That it is you who is my destiny
I would do anything just say the word
Whatever you wanted, I'd give it to you
I'd give you my heart but it's already yours
Whatever you needed you know what to do
I wish that someday you could love me
Because me not loving you, now that's absurd
My feelings run deeper than I have ever known before
Because I'd do anything, If you would just say the word......



Let Down Again


When you feel like
the world has let you down
And there's no one
to comfort you anywhere around
The people you thought
would always be right there
They show you at once
that they really don't care
Even the ones who said
you were stuck with them
Turns out they were lying
and you've been let down again
You know what they say
that cliche fits like a glove
It's better to loved and lost
Than to never ever have loved
But who believes that
I mean really honestly who?
Why would I rather feel
like I was stepped on with shoes
But believe it or not
I think I'll be okay
It's the way life should be
Tomorrow's a brand new lonesome day!!!!!



Make It Right


Out the window there is only night
My day has vanished from sight
The brightness that used to be
Is no longer there for me
What's the point of going on
If it's impossible to see the sun
I know I have one reason for life
The only reason I haven't seen the knife
My handsome little man, he keeps me here
Even though sometimes it's hard to bare
Sometimes I just want to give it up
The world is so cruel and so corrupt
Do I want to stay when it's hard to breathe
Do I want to be here all alone again
Just another reason to take a leave
A long list of friends who aren't friends
But I guess the night isn't so bad
It doesn't even really make me sad
I guess it's cause the darkness hides pain
But you can see the outlines when it rains
They are not invisible just hard to see
Look closely at them and you'll believe
You will know exactly what I mean
When I say the pain can be seen
Someday I hope to no longer feel
The way I do now, it's seems so unreal
I hope and pray I see the day
That I recognize, and then go the right way
I try so hard to do things right
But it's like I'm cursed and doomed
I'll keep trying to make things right
Till the day the flowers no longer bloom.



More Than A Memory

When I close my eyes, I see her there
Only to realize she's no where near.
I stay up all night so I don't have to sleep
I know that she's waiting there in my dreams
Showing me the way it could have been
I got to feel the pain all over again
I dial her number but hang up the phone
I drive across town just to see if she's home
I can't get her out of my head
My friends keep saying it takes time to forget
It hurts to see her face
I wish I could just try and erase
The anguish and agony she's given to me
She has destroyed my heart, it's no mystery
And yet still here I am wishing for her
To be back in my arms, it's all a blur
The love I have , it won't go away
And it seems like it is here to stay
What can I do to break the monotony
From all these memories that have gotten to be
Way out of control for my eyes
If you listen close you can hear my cries
Even after all this I believe I can get through
I just think what would she do in my shoes
She'd be strong she'd survive without a tear
Then I'd tell her there is nothing to fear
Because I'd be loving the fact of being her man
Holding her near, holding her hand
But that's the difference between her and I
I would be right there by her side
That's why for me, I can now believe
That what I feel is more than a memory...



Mr. Nice guy

Here is a story that has to be told.
About a man looking for someone to hold.
They called him a nice guy, he was a little shy,
Anything you needed, and he wouldn't ask why.
The shirt off his back, his last few bucks,
The shoes off his feet, No matter what.
He tried his heart out to impress his "type"
But it seemed Mr. Nice Guy didn't have enough hype.
He did what he could to make the girls see
How special they are, but it would never be.
There's always another, that takes her heart,
It doesn't matter how many times they may part.
One shot is all he needs to prove his loyalty.
One chance to show her whom she really needs, is he!!
Mr. Bad Guy it seems is always there,
To put himself in the mix, never letting her care.
She doesn't have the chance to meet someone new,
He is always there but he doesn't have a clue.
He doesn't know what she is worth or how lucky he is.
Because if he did, he would stop giving her shit.
Telling her she's the one, there is no other
Then behind her back he is with another.
So back to the nice guy whose always there,
Trying to show her he's a real man who cares...
If she ever gets sick of him and moves on
He wants her to know that his feelings are strong.
Sometimes in your life you feel so high
Nothing can bring you down, even being a nice guy.
You just wish she'd see what all she has missed,
Because being with a bad boy, she's never really
been kissed!!
You know when it happens, You're able to fly,
Then you'll know you've been kissed by Mr. Nice Guy!!!!



My Love


I have thought a lot about
All the things I have done wrong,
All the days I let you sit at home
Listening to those sad songs,
But I have come to realize
exactly what you mean to me
And now I finally see that
You are my destiny.
There is no other woman
Who could ever take your place
So if you ever walk away
It's like I have fallen down from grace.
As long as you are here
Never walking out
Then I'll never have to worry
Cuz I know what love is all about.
If ever you are in doubt
Of what my love entails
Just know that I could be
The winds that move your sails.
I want to be your everything
The only one you'll ever need.
I need you in my life always
You are my life indeed.
I hope you can believe me
From thee I'll never stray
You are the one I want to love
Forever and a day.
If the love we have together
Is as strong as I think it may be
Then there is no need to worry
Cuz it's only you I see
Believe me when I say this
I am so much in love
With everything you mean to me,
My angel sent from above.
So when you sitting there
Wondering if I am true
You only have to know one thing
Exactly how much I love you!!!



My Secret!!??!!


Here I am alone and confused
I wish I knew what I should do
I'm feeling like a lost little puppy
So afraid to be without you
I guess I can manage myself
I have done it for this long
But still sometimes I catch myself
Lonely singing those sad songs
I don't know how else to say this
But we could be so good together
Me holding you and you holding me
We could last through any weather
It's weird having these feelings
Because we hardly even talked before
But for some reason I can't stop thinking
That maybe we could share so much more
I dream of a life where I'm happy
A great woman standing by my side
I'd like to think that could be you
But my feelings are too easy to hide
I'm bursting with emotion
I just can't figure it out
Why can't I just tell you now
What my love is all about
I would give my heart, mind, and soul
Just for a chance to be close to you
But if i told you my secret
I'm afraid of what you might do
Would you take it the wrong way
Misunderstand what I have said
Or would you comprehend it perfectly
Turns out that was the fear you dread
Or would it turn out
That maybe your heart was leaning to me
Pointing in my way the whole time
I would be the happiest man you'd see
Then the only question i have is
Will it be worth the risk
Is it worth my heart getting trampled
For the slim chance we could live in bliss
I guess that is the question
Will I go for the gold or not
Knowing myself like I do
I'll probably cruise towards the bronze
Someday soon I'm sure I'll know
What it takes to be a family man
Because right now I'm dazed
And my hourglass is running out of sand
So if by some miracle
You realize this is for you
Then you'll have the power
To bring yourself a love thats true
I'm afraid I don't have the courage
To risk my heart on a chance
But if I did it would be so nice
The two of us close during our first dance!!!



No One...

The loneliness is blinding, I can no longer see
It's hard to tell if anyone is standing next to me
My sense of touch is fading, there's no one here to feel
It's hard to believe my worst dreams are becoming real
The loneliness is filling me with one fear after another
I am alone I see it now, maybe there is no other
No one to guide me through the storm
Hold me close and keep me warm
Show me the way when I am confused
No one who cares my heart is abused
No one to shed upon me light
And bring me back at last my sight
Or even just to hold my hand
And let the hourglass run out of sand
Time is passing me quickly by
Sometimes I just want to let out a cry
I fear that I am destined to be isolated
Wandering aimlessly alone and unaided
Trying to find out where I stand
Questioning whether I am a real man
Scared, lost, confused and desolate
Sitting here feeling so inadequate
Unable to see what the future holds
Wondering if I should just stay home
Can I change the world I see
Can it be changed by only me!??!



Shoulda


Maybe I shoulda listened to you
Maybe I shoulda tried a little more
Maybe I shoulda gave more love
Then you'd know who it was I adored.
But you shoulda talked to me
And you shoulda showed how you feel
You shoulda gave me a reason to stay
Then I would have known this was real.
We shoulda showed how much we cared
We shoulda lasted forever
We shoulda gave eternal love
Then we would still be together.
I am sick of pointing fingers
But who is to blame for us falling apart
Why did it have to end like this
What do I do now with this broken heart.
I coulda been all you could want
I coulda been all you need
I coulda been your one true love
But you just did not believe.
You coulda been my everything
You coulda been my world
You coulda been my heart and soul
If only you just said the word.
We coulda lasted for an eternity
We coulda been a winning team
We coulda been so much more than this
But now our love can't be seen.
I don't understand what happened to us
I just can't figure it out
But I do know one thing for sure
I shoulda never left you with doubt!



Something More


I see you but you can't see me
Even if I was right in front of you.
You have someone already
And to them you are true.
But that's okay, it's good to know
I can't believe I feel this way.
I hardly know you, does it show
I wish I had the nerve to say.
It really doesn't matter now
You seem happy where you are.
I still wish there was a way, somehow
I already wished upon every star.
But once again it didn't pan out
You are in love with another.
Sometimes I just wanna let out a shout
Or a really loud "Oh brother".
I guess if it was meant to be
Fate will bring us together.
For every jealous person to see
How our love would last forever.
But there I go dreaming out loud
What's a nice guy to do.
I hope I don't attract a crowd
While I am saying this to you.
Well there's one worry wasted
I don't think I'll ever say.
What my heart has wished it tasted
Your love for the rest of my days.
The words I want to speak
Just won't seem to come out.
I guess I am too shy and meek
To take away any doubt
Sometimes not living real
Is better than getting hurt
I'm not good at closing the deal
Showing what "We" could be worth.
Unfortunately it's close to the end
I know because- I just know.
I'll let fate handle us, my friend
But our friendship can surely grow!!!



Straight from the Heart!


When I go to sleep at night,
My dreams take me away.
To a place where love is strong,
A place I wish I could stay.
In this place is where I found you,
You appeared out of nowhere it seems.
So this should clearly show you,
You are the girl of my dreams.
Believe it or not you have to admit,
You have to realize it is true.
I have longed all my life for love so real,
And now I have found it in you.
Don't be timid and don't be shy,
Don't be afraid to show you care.
For in this place of happiness and love,
There is no room for despair.
So I promise I will never hurt you,
And I'll never say good-bye.
For when we part for a short time,
From you I want a smile and not a sigh.
I am awakened by the sound,
Of another's heartbeat.
I can't believe my eyes,
I see your face so sweet.
You are here in reality,
Holding tightly to my hand.
Just in time to see my hourglass,
Running completely out of sand.
You must stay here and never go,
Please stay right by my side.
Rainbows and doves are what will appear,
Whenever our hearts collide.
I have to tell you that I care,
And from thee I'd never part.
So I promise- From me to you,
A rose straight from the heart....



Superman

Take my hand we can fly away
I am the one who loves you everyday.
To the day of my death, my very last breath
Will be spent loving you til no one's left.
I believe I'm the one with the S one my chest
Close your eyes and forget about the rest.
Everyone sees that man don't treat you right
He comes to you proving he's your kryptonite.
I'll give you the strength to leave him behind
He can't see that you are one of a kind.
Your sweet like honey and oh so fine
I'll fight to the death just to make you mine.
To me you're like a buried treasure
And I'm gonna treasure you from now until forever.
I know I can be there like no one can
I wish that I could be your Superman.
I'll be the one who's by your side
I can wipe the tears from your eyes.
I hope I can always stay near
To be the one who helps you through your fears.
I'll be the man to save you from your ex
He put his hands on you, now you gotta show him who's next.
See I'm Superman I've come to save the day
I just can't understand why he would treat you that way.
I can't believe you let him go that route
Look in the mirror, your beautiful inside and out.
I hope to be the one who wins your heart
If you can't already tell, I've been on you since the start.
I think it's about time that you drop that zero
Just give me a chance, and I could be your superhero.
I wish you would follow my lead
I will do my best to be all that you need.
It shouldn't take much for me to change your plans
Come fly with me and let me be your Superman!!



The Letter

Woke up in the morning and opened my eyes
Walked into the kitchen to find a surprise.
I saw it right there, a letter on the floor
I was so sure someone shoved it under the door.
So I picked it up and checked for a name
It was blank, the return address was the same.
I sat down at the table and opened the envelope
Hoping it isn't something stupid and I feel like a dope.
I pulled out the paper, it was a handwritten letter
I unfolded it thinking, it would make me feel better.
No addressee at the top and no Dear Anyone
I had things to do, this could wait until I'm done.

So I jumped in the shower and got myself clean
I had to look spiffy before I could be seen.
I did all my errands I had planned for the day
I went home to relax and let come what may.
Then all of a sudden the phone rang, and I answered
It was the love of my life, she doesn't know the pain I endured.
I have always wanted to tell her, but we were such good friends
I didn't want to ruin a friendship to where we couldn't make amends.

But she told me she dropped something when she left the day before
She said it might be somewhere near the door.
The letter was the first thing to come to mind
I'm sure sure I didn't notice something else to find.
She said it was important to her, she'd really need it back
I told her I found it and it would be safe and intact.
I told her I'd bring it the next day around four
She wouldn't hangup until I promised to read no more.
But the urge over took me and how would she know
So I opened the letter began to read nice and slow.

The words on the paper almost blew me away
She had written all the words I wanted to say.
She started out by saying she was glad we were so close
And for her birthday last week she thanked me for the rose.
And so I read on with a smile on my face
Now I can't wait to feel her warm embrace.
She wrote that the words she could not figure out
To prove she could love me and show no doubt.
The things she was feeling she's never felt before
She wanted to say for so long I was who she's been waiting for.

I wanted to call her, tell her I felt the same
But I wasn't supposed to know, and this isn't a game.
This was my life, my world, my everything
If there ever was a time, now is my time to sing.
So I kept on reading, to see what else she said
Then a tear hit my eye, I kinda wished I was dead.
The name that she wrote, I know it wasn't mine
Maybe I misread tears made me temporary blind.
But it was no mistake, the letter wasn't for me
There goes my sun crashing down into the seas.
I though I'd just had the happiest moment in time
The moment I thought my love would be mine.
Now I see I was wrong, her love belongs to another
But I just can't see myself loving any other.

I folded up the paper, no need to read it to the end
I already feel like I screwed over a friend.
I shouldn't have read it, it just wasn't my place
Though I'll never tell her now, I'll still feel the disgrace.
I guess I'll go on with my friendship in tact
It's going to be hard knowing I broke the pact.
I just wish it were true, and it was me she loved
Then I could tell her, she is my angel from above.
Even though it wasn't me, she still makes me better
I just wish, oh I wish I never read that letter.



They Can Be....


It's those three little words
that bring joy and sometimes pain.
The magic in them can bring
sunshine and sometimes rain.
They can make you want
to do the craziest things.
They can make you feel
like you're flying without wings.
They can also break
down the walls of Jericho.
They can bring happiness too
as if you didn't know.
The power in those words
is enough to make you whole
Sometimes they can even
make you lose control.
They are strong enough
to bring you up.
But be careful, sometimes
those words are corrupt.
Then there are times
They can bring you down.
But they can make you laugh
like you're watching a clown.
They give you the feeling
you could be invincible.
But sometimes they can
make you seem invisible.
These words have an endurance
that's unbeknownst to man.
They can have you sitting
there in disbelief, like Damn!?!
These by far are the
mightiest words I know.
They can be the words
to make your spirits grow.
This little phrase has been
known to tame the mightiest beast.
From south to north
and west to east.
Those words can give you
the greatest feeling you can receive.
They can give you hope and faith
and show you how to believe.
So if you ever doubt
the power of this phrase.
Just say these words to someone
and you will be amazed.
Just hearing these words
can turn a smile from a frown.
Just let your heart go free
and listen to the sound.
Cuz love is in the air
so don't let it pass you by.
I know when it came to me
I let it in with arms open wide!!



Think of Me

When your eyes are closed and you're dreaming,
Could there be thoughts of me in your mind.
Seeing the things I see when I'm awake
The life that could be, the love we could find.
Do your dreams help you think of me,
In more than a friendship tone.
Or does it show just how good we could be
As our friendship travels on.

My dreams show me the way to bliss,
The right path to my eternal joy.
They show me how I can feel giddy again,
Like I did when I was a boy.
I'd love to have the chance to get that feeling,
And be as happy as I can be.
To be the one who is deeply loved,
By the girl of my dreams.

But unfortunately it won't be tat easy,
I don't believe she thinks the same.
What can I do if I'm not the right person,
Unfavorably there is no one to blame.
It's survival of the fittest, the stong survive,
And the nice guy never gets a shot.
So I guess only time will tell,
I can only go with what I got!!!



This is How I Feel

I want you to know how I feel
I want you to see it could be so real.
I want to show you how sweet it could be
I want to tell you, you should be with me.
Maybe I'll get the nerve to say
Exactly how I feel every single day.
I can't get you out of my mind
But yet the confidence I can not find.
To tell you we should be together
Because no one around can treat you better.
I could be the man you long for
We are friends, but we could be much more.
If you think you can trust me, trust me with your heart
Once together I can't picture us apart.
You are so beautiful and oh so sweet
You'll never have to wonder if I cheat.
Because my respect and loyalty show me the ways
I can stay truthful throughout our days.
You mean too much for me to lose your respect
So that's one thing you'll never have to expect.
I am not perfect by far I'll tell you
But there's nothing that I wouldn't do.
To show you what you mean to me
And then show the world and let them see.
We would have no boundries, you and I
We could search the whole world wide.
And never find a barrier to put us down
Just one shot is all I need and you'll drown.
In my love it overflows with passion
Everyday I'll show love in a new fashion.
Just to keep you happy and near
With me by your side, put away all fears.
You seek someone who'll always be true
Someone to show they care and love you.
Well open your eyes, Here's your chance
I might not be here on your next glance.
They say if its meant to be it will be
Fate takes too long though, if you ask me.
Let's try it out, see if things click
Here is a rose, watch out it may prick.
I'm just kidding, I've put all thorns aside
It's only me here, these emotions I can't hide!



Three Little Words


I have said those three little words,
A good amount of times over the years.
And every time it seems to me,
I get in return only tears.
Every time i say those words,
It's like a button that i pressed.
To make the woman forget my name,
And leave me lonely and depressed.
So maybe I think I need to find,
Another phrase to say to you.
Something that shows that I care,
And my feelings are so true.
But what possible phrase,
Is there that I could say.
To make you know how I feel,
Today, Tomorrow, Forever and a day.
Whoever made up this language,
Must have known right from the start.
That I'd be racking my brain,
Trying to find words from my heart.
They definitely didn't make it easy,
To use any other phrase.
I tried and tried to figure it out,
And it leaves me confused and dazed.
I just cannot bare it,
Knowing you're there and I have nothing to say.
Because I know in my heart, you are for me,
Even though you left before and turned my skies grey.
But I am willing to look past that,
Because I know there is something there.
A feeling i just can't ignore
You know I have always cared.
You never left my thoughts,
Didn't matter who I was with
You were always there in my heart,
Hoping you would one day bless me with that gift.
I often wonder what would have been,
If in fact you didn't leave me.
Would we still be together, strong,
For everyone to envy.
Or would life had thrown the twists and turns,
We all know that it can.
I guess it really doesn't matter,
I just hope I can be you're man.
I guess it time to test the waters,
To see if the currents are still strong.
Because now it seems you want to be,
In the place where you belong.
So I'll just come out and say this now,
I believe together we can grow.
Into a loving warm-hearted family,
Because I LOVE YOU more than words could ever show!!!!!



Through The Pain..

Through the rain I can see you standing there with him,
I'm dying inside, I want us back together strong.
Like it was before, when the sun shone down on us lovingly,
I can't go on it hurts so bad, I can't see myself moving on.

The rain moves on but the pain seems to last forever,
I feel a stabbing sensation in the depths of my heart.
It's really nothing new to me, this feeling I feel,
I have had it you see from the second we split apart.

My heart is lonely and there is a deep hole,
A hole that only you can fill, by showing me you care.
Showing that you made a mistake when you left,
Showing me now and forever you will be there.

Through the pain I can tell you now,
Finally after all this time I've spent.
Wishing, praying and hoping that God,
Would deliver me back my Heaven's Sent.

But sadly I see only pain in your eyes,
When my name hits your ears.
Was it something I did or didn't do,
That makes you hurt after all these years

Through the eyes of the beholder,
Beauty is said to be kept safe from pain.
But what happens when the beholder,
Is the one who can't get out of the rain.

Through my pain I see your happier now,
Living your life freely, without worrying about me.
So I'll step aside and let you keep moving on, my love,
In my heart is a place where you'll always be!!!



What Do I Do With The Love?


Thinking back to when you left
All the pain you have inflicted on me
I couldn't believe you would do that
Right in the open for all to see
You tore me up from inside out
And now all I can do is wonder why
Why do I still love you as much as I do
Why can I not Just forget to cry
What do I do with the love I have
What do I do with the feeling I've shared
There all still here even though you're not
And I think I've had enough of the hurt I've bared
All these memories aren't going anywhere
You know you've caused so much pain
Then you try to turn it on me
Like from you cheating, I had something to gain
So what kind of fool do you take me for
Tell me what kind of man would I be
If I was to just let you find another man
And use him to walk all over me
Even though I still love you
I have to forget about your existence
No matter if you try and comeback or not
I must build up my resistance
How will I ever find my true love
When your face is always on my mind
The feelings I have for you won't go away
I wish there was a magic clock to rewind
I could go back to when we were happy
And of course we were together
I would do whatever it takes to keep you near
And keep you loving me forever
So now I have had my little flashback
And I am Asking the Lord high above
Please God answer me tis one thing
What do I do with the love?



What's A Man To Do?

What's a man to do when
It seems there's no way out.
What's a man to say when
He's left with so much doubt.
It's hard to keep your head up
When the world seems so insane.
It's hard to face the facts head on
When no one wants to take the blame.
How can I be happy with myself
If I don't know my own flaws.
I give my all into a relationship
But I always lose, no wins or draws.
I wish someone would say what it is
I do to push them away after the fact.
They say I make them so comfortable, initially
Then a few months later, I get sacked.
So what happens in those few months
To push them quickly away from me.
What is it that I say, what do I do
Or has it just been them, coincidentally.
I try and try to be the good guy
To be all they want, all they need.
And I ask for only love in return
But they act like i ask them to bleed.
All I need is tender loving care
And I would give all I can give.
All I could be and all that I am
Just to hear those three words, then I can live.
Without pain and heartache
That would be a life worth while.
I wouldn't mind doing all I can
Just to get from her a smile.
So somebody tell me the meaning of life
Is it sharing my life with you?
Because if it isn't then I'll never know
What a man is supposed to do!??!



You Are The One


At night I sit and wonder why
Why you came into my life.
Why were you sent to me
Sometimes it so hard to believe.
God has truly sent an angel to care
Possibly to test and see if I can share.
A star from God's sky has come to earth
I have known this from the moment of your birth.
The first time I heard that cry
I felt my heart tighten and you're the reason why.

You are the one who opened my eyes
You are the one who makes me try.
You are the one who feels my love
Because you were sent from the heaven's above.
You are the one who lights up my night
You are the one who can make dark seem bright.
You are the one who shows me the way
Whenever I'm lost I know it will be okay.

I was Blind before you came to me
I was alone, by myself and couldn't see.
I was lost, by myself and so confused
Now with you here the right path I can choose.
There are times I feel I don't belong
But you make me feel like I can be strong.
All this time I was searching for a hero
I didn't realize it was you, I feel like the zero.
R.J. you're like the sun, you show me the light
I'm so full of love, and you're the reason why!



You Don't Know


Who can know the emptiness inside
Every time I see your face
So many feelings left behind
Are now in God's good grace
And now you wonder why
I turn away when you look at me
You don't know but i am trying to hide
Never wanting your eyes to see
This desperate heart that knows
How perfect we could be
The two of us together
Forever and eternity
You don't know what it's like
Living my life without you
You don't know what it's like
Knowing I can't have you
You don't know what it's like
Loving you all this time
You don't know what it's like
Knowing that you're not mine
I'll give you all my heart
Mind, body and soul
And now when I need you the most
You don't know!!
I put my heart on the line
For the hope that dreams come true
But all I get is pain in return
It hurts me right now to love you
All I ever wanted in this world
I know I have found in you
I never felt this way before
Now I can't break through
Now I lie awake
Alone at night
So afraid Now
To close my eyes
Just one more dream of you
Would tear me up inside
I dream of us together
The five of us happy
Living life knowing
I love you more than eyes can see.
Another shot I gave
Risked it all on a chance
The chance that you were ready
And each other's lives we could enhance
They say love has no limits
That it knows no lines
But it never lets you know it's over
Never gives us those signs
I wanted to be all you need
Together our love would grow
And now when I need you the most
You really just don't know!!!!



You Should Know


What do I have to look forward to,
You're gone, now how do I get through.
I didn't even get to say good-bye,
You went away, before a tear fell from my eye.
I long for the day when again we are together,
I'm so lonely now, no matter what the weather.
But I'm holding strong to the love you gave,
And I feel in my heart I can honestly say.
I gave you my all, my heart and soul,
So why oh why did you have to go.
It's so hard to look at your little boy,
How can it bring me to tears yet fill me with joy.
He looks just like you, it hurts inside,
He won't have a chance to know he's your pride.
I sit here looking at him, all I see is you,
I can't believe you've went away so soon.
What did I do to deserve this,
All I want from you is one last kiss.
These are the times that hurt the most,
Sometimes I feel your presence, like you're a ghost.
I will do my best to raise our son,
It's hard knowing without you, he'll have fun.
It's hard to watch him getting so tall,
It's hard to watch him without you at all.
I know if you were here you'd be so proud,
You'd climb the highest mountain, and scream it loud.
You'd swim the widest sea just for a chance,
To meet him once, his life you'd enhance.
But sadly he has to rely on pictures and my memories,
And he'll always know you love him to the highest degree.
He'll never have to ask what you were about,
Because he'll already know without a doubt.
And when the time comes when God and you,
Tell me there's nothing left for me to do.
You call me home to reunite our love,
Then our son can watch us high above.
Wherever the day may take us now,
We will never forget you noway, nohow.
The pain it shows but my love shows more,
You will always be the one I adore.
Over the River, or through the woods, wherever we may go,
There is only one thing you should know.
If I've said it once I've said it a million times,
You and I were soul mates, to last a lifetime......



Your Everything


The minute I looked in your eyes I knew
That I would do anything for you.
The first time you touched my heart I felt
Like I've never felt with anyone else.
If only you could see what you mean to me
Then I'm sure you would know all we could be.
I want to be apart of all of your dreams
This could be love, this it seems.
If only you knew exactly how I feel
There would be no doubt if this is real.
I'll finish your words and I'll cherish your thoughts
I want to be with you no matter what the cost.
If you are not here then what can I do
I cannot go on if I'm not holding you
You showed me the way to live my life
And now I want to hold you as my wife
As you can see I am as sincere as can be
My only thought now is are you thinking of me...




Good-Bye!!!


I guess this is not a good time
to say what I have to say.
I bet when you woke up this morning
you didn't think you would cry by the end of the day.
I'm sorry for doing this this but it's not in my hands
it's not my fault and you knew this day would come.
When I'm away I will be with you always
without you back home for me, a life I will have none.
I am not asking you to wait for me
don't do anything you don't want to do.
But I pray if God can hear me
don't turn my skies a dark gloomy blue.
I f you're here when I get back
then at least I'll know for sure.
I won't have to worry about losing you
you're love so real is my only cure.
So if you decide to stay and wait
and you're sure you know what this means.
I will write you every week
because now I'm one of the few, the proud, Im in the Marines...


These are straight from my heart. My biggest inspiration is love, whether it be falling in it or out of it, or even looking for it! Or it could be the love for a child. I hope these poems brighten your day like they have brightened mine in writing them.
