Beneath the Moon

 Beneath the moon 

under the scatter of stars, 

close your eyes and feel me there

lips to lips without a care. 


Till the sun once more rises

hold me in those arms of yours, 

just the thought brings a smile

and has me begging for more.     


Beneath the moon 

under the scatter of stars,

close your eyes and feel me there

lips to lips without a care.

 I have died a thousand times ...


Morning Moon

 It was the fragrance sweet

that ignited the memories,

a time where we were one

and united by our love. 


I gazed up at the sky to see 

the morning moon above,

the days are all but gone 

and still remains our love.


Tears most certainly fall

at the thought we had it all, 

I face what tomorrow brings

in a world based on dreams

Just a Thought

 The energy is amazing 

what one can say and do, 

devoted to the emotions

I let your love on through.


The time has passed and 

everything comes to an end,

for we are merrily passing

in a circle from within. 


That which pierced the spirit

lifted the soul on high

also caused the ache 

that toys with mind.

The Gift

 I placed in all my love

happiness and peace, 

sprinkled with passion

and the joy of dreams.


I added the sunshine

to brighten your day, 

filled it with blue skies as

if every day was in May.


I tossed in the heavens

the stars that shine at night,

a simple reminder that 

you are the love of my life.

Heavens

 Running through the heavens 

jumping from cloud to cloud,

even though my feet are 

firmly on the ground. 


Whispers of sweet love 

have fallen upon deaf ears,

it might be wishful thinking

to believe that you still care.


Turning the pages 

on this story we call life, 

chapter upon chapter 

reveals the human plight.

Earworm

 "You have got to give a little, take a little and let your whole heart break a little" 

dancing with you. 


It could be the season, the holiday surprise as I dance around in circles with your image in my mind. The day feels so magical beyond the worlds despair as I take once more to dreaming of my sweet love, called forevermore. There is sunshine when skies are dark and grey and a warmth that can be felt when the snow won't melt away.  Your memory brings a joy to my life as if I had you here through the day and night. It is so special these feelings I have. The darkness fades replaced by the sunshine just like your love that brightens my life. 

Whisper once and whisper twice

and whispers just for you, 

bringing words of love 

from the heavens blue. 


Hear it when you wake up

in the winds that roar your way, 

I sent to you all my love 

in each and every drop of rain.



Heart of Mine

 I closed my eyes 

and crossed my arms, 

one more time to feel

you here with me. 


The Kitchen Dance

has never been the same 

as the first time I felt

you in my dreams.


Softly humming 

wordless sounds of love 

calming this weathered

heart of mine.

Only Comes With Time

 My waking and sleeping hours

are all simply just the same, 

I spend them thinking of you 

each and every day.


I hold onto the moments

that bring the most amount of joy,

relieving each and everyone 

the images cannot be destroyed.


Grateful for the experience 

of a time so long ago, 

a life preserver I hold on to

and just can't let go.


Gazing at the night stars

that shine down on you and me,

it brings with it a reminder 

no distance can separate a dream.


We're as close as the thoughts

that unite a soul to soul, 

each comes with the blessing

the heavens quickly unfold.


The hopeless romantic is

running while standing still, 

trying to change the path 

but I guess I simply failed.


The words take to the music

like the heart to a whisper, 

repeating the words of love

that can't even be heard.


Waking to the morning light

with you here in my mind,

feeling a sense of peace

that only comes with time.

Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me *** Mel Carter

Song

 

The song no one else can hear

meant only for your ears, 

sung to cross the miles 

hoping it brings you smiles. 


If tomorrow doesn't come

cliche are the words of love,

left for the world to read

of how I feel for you.


The gift comes without a tag

there's no price on the day,

you came into my life and

started it all new.







The wind

 I whispered to the wind 

to send to you my friend

kisses upon kisses to land

upon your lips.


If the wind doesn't cooperate

I'll send a few of those snowflakes,

as they melt upon you may you 

feel my love for you.


When I can't sleep

I lay here daydreaming, 

gazing at the night sky 

and thinking of you.


May the star that shines bright

shine over you tonight as a 

reminder how near you are

to me. 


Two hearts and one love 

blanketed by the heavens above,

a reminder of how special 

you are to me. 


I whispered to the wind 

to send to you my friend

kisses upon kisses to land

upon your lips. 






Our Love

 I recreated the moment 

of our first hello and the

smiles between us 

would certainly glow.


My heart felt the warmth 

from deep, deep inside, 

as I held you close 

right here in my mind. 


Your love is certainly here

as close as the memories we share,

From the rain comes kisses

from the moon hug as the world

is the gift of our love. 



whispers

 In the silence of the night

the wind whispers to me, 

calling out your name 

as if I was caught up in 

a dream. 


The tears had fallen 

and numb was this heart of mine, 

as I sighed and took a breath l

I felt your love come over me. 


The memories surfaced 

and my heart began to sing,

a smile to my face as I

walked right thru the dream. 


Forever is most certain 

and I will tell you why, 

as the love between us 

left its imprint on my mind. 


Singing and dancing

as a calm came over me, 

I stopped to feel you in my arms 

to the title of eternity.

Chapters

 Chapter upon chapter

till the end is near,

the story was written

when a heart dared to care.


I looked on back 

at the choices that were made

and the sorrow swept over me

like a fog filled gray day. 


Should there be heartache 

and tears that don't stop

or should I file them away

under the title " I've lost"?


I find myself thinking of you

hoping your life brings joy thru,

from the first day you said hello, 

I couldn't ever let you go.


Words can be meaningless it's true

except for the ones that the soul writes of you,

the expression of emotion written in the clouds

directed my heart as I fell in love with you.

The Wind

 I felt the wind as it dipped down

and it made a loud roaring sound,

it woke something from deep inside

 as thoughts of you toyed with my mind.


Brushing up against my cheek 

my knees quivered as they became weak,

for just one quick moment in time 

I had you in these arms of mine. 


Afraid to open my eyes 

to find the dreams were built on lies, 

you were never and I wondered 

if you ever cared. 


The days are quickly passing by 

and I felt I wasted a lot of time, 

wishing that you felt the same 

and hoping we would share just 

one day.


You never ever said goodbye

just got up and left myside, 

all that is left is foolish dreams

that bring you close to me.
