Yours and Mine

 At the sound of a love song,

or the wind against my cheek, 

the reminders of love surround

in the most haunting memories. 


I can't think from your side ,

I can only tell you from mine.

My world changed forever

when you touches this heart of mine.



~


Connected by the heavens above us, 

and united by both heart and soul,

from that first hello you had this

uncanny and  kind of mysterious hold.


When time took the reigns on us 

and separated our beings into two,

all I have is the memories 

that on a moment suddenly unfold.






The stars in the heavens are yours and mine, 

one set above us from beginning to the end. 

Lay down beside me and don't ever let go, 

as my love for you is stronger than you know. 


I never understood the why's or even the time, 

for you to touch my soul with this amazing hold. 

If the morning never comes I'll know I've been loved,

that you have changed my life and made things right. 

~

It might have been foolish 

to believe in the dream, 

to imagine you with me

 for all eternity,


Completed my being and

brought a unique way to live,

challenged my soul 

when you took a hold.


I can't shake it

though you know I have tried,

to forget how you 

touched me from inside.


The years have passed

as time will do, 

but it feels like yesterday

when your love shined thru.






 My feelings were in a bit of turmoil 

as I listened to the haunting songs, 

my mind drifted to a time and place

feeling the warmth of your spirit. 


The tears rolled down my cheek 

as I thought of the wasted years.

I closed my eyes and allowed 

my soul to soar beyond this earthly

prison. 


I reached out as if I could feel you

reaching back in some magical way,

as if my thought I could bring you here

and this pillow we would once more share. 


How could silence break all barriers of sound?

Was it the ache within my heart that cried for you?

I stopped for a moment erases these thoughts 

free your mind, hold my hand, soar high above the heavens.


I couldn't move , I lay there still as the night

caught up in some foolish daydream, 

What is it the tempts the heart and soul 

and at the same time pushes it away?


Running, running and my feet have yet to move,

weighted down by my wants and needs.

I stumbled in the darkness 

releasing my inner being through each tear. 


Free me, love me, hold me, don't let go,

can you hear me or is it the silence that rules?

Dreams are the device in which I escape, 

once more if only in my dreams I am laying 

in your arms. 


Wild Rose

The beauty I see in wild roses, 
the warmth of a summer day, 
creates the canvas for love
that I spend dreaming away.

Time to say good night, 
to my pillow I lay my head, 
knowing that we are one 
in this magical kind of love.




 Singing a song, 

what could go wrong,

when my heart pines 

for what I long. 


Beauty when 

I'm with you,

that is the magic 

I feel when loving you.



Simplicity


 Laughter and smiles

unite us across the miles,

the sweetest of memories

and just pure simplicity. 


Spring to summer 

racing fast, 

count the days 

by winter past. 


As long as I 

can hold you close

in my heart 

I won't let go.


~

I close my eyes 

and a chill takes control

as I think of you and I

in a story untold.


It embraces forever

this love of ours

continues to grow

by the hour. 


It wakes me each morning

with sweet thoughts of you,

engaged in the memories

when my soul first met you.

Summertime Memories


There is no room for sadness,

as I'm not looking back, 

like the flowers blooming

today is where its at. 


The seasons are passing

as fast as can be, 

take my hand and 

come with me. 


The summer sun 

trickles through the leaves,

casting beams of light 

that trigger the dreams.


The sky is clearly blue

no clouds in passing 

there is only thoughts 

of me and you.

Nature's Artwork

 

Nature's Artwork


Watching the wind

dance with the leaves, 

the rain rolling in 

a summer time breeze.


Whispers in silence

from my heart to yours,

a tear has fallen

begging for more. 




Morning Doves





The beauty of nature, 

the magic of dreams, 

when you stop to appreciate 

the sweet memories. 


My reminder....  I have learned to appreciate the good memories and let the bad ones go. To celebrate each day as the gift it is. That we are all on borrowed time and to make the most of the time we have. To travel and see as much of the world as I can. Like the old saying " stop to smell the roses" I want to never forget the beauty of a daisy and the joy that seeing something for the first time brings. That we really are as young as we feel. That my truest of friend has never left my side and is always just a text away. That I still get excited with a mere conversation. You don't need a lot of friends one or two good ones are like anchors on a boat that keep ya from drifting. I realized writing is my connection to you as long I can document a thought, feeling or emotion you are right here with me. Dreams can be scary and the subconscious is powerful. I don't regret anything, I am who I am with you, without you and because of you. I feel beautiful when I see myself through your eyes, for some reason it truly alters my physical and mental being. Simple things like a song, an email, the wind brushing up against my face. the warmth of the sun, the rain at night always leads me into your arms. Everything is part of a plan and though it might be redirected by our choices, we always end up where we were truly meant to be. I'll never stop appreciating the experience, those who cross our path, as everything we do becomes a part of who we are. In all reality we can never part because you are always in my heart, right next to my soul forever a part of who I am. I love you.

Magical Dreams

 


I walked through the gardens as the flowers bloomed and all of  my thoughts rushed to you. There is so much beauty to be found but nothing as amazing as the love you and I found.

~


I can make it through the day

 as I go about redreaming. 

There is  something in the way

 I felt you next to me. 

It gave my life meaning 

as  I felt your lips to mine 

so I go about redreaming 

of that special time. 

~


I took a walk down the road, 

simplicity right in front of my nose.

I imagined you holding my hand

and my heart melted right there where

I stand.



There are many a stories with and ending to tell. With words of love that cast over us with a spell. No matter the darkness that comes with the night, there will always be sunshine in my heart for life.Somehow a long time ago I was privileged to find a love that within my heart grows. There are many a stories that come to and end but our story is everlasting with a quirky bend. My thoughts are consumed with you as I whisper the words that I'll always love you. We must go on living , we can't stop now. There is a lot to do and do it with a smile. I'll make it work that's what I'll do, as long as your love keep shining thru. 

~

It was a magical dream

it brought you here to me, 

with a wonderful kiss that

woke me up with a smile.


I could sense your whole being,

all that makes you who you are, 

your touch from the heavens 

placed me high up in the stars. 


No matter where we go,

we are never, ever far apart

you're right here , right here

deep in the center of my heart.


Sings...I felt your lips 

when yours met mine, 

a sweet and loving kiss

that crosses time. 


The thrill within me 

will never fade away 

as I found out this morning

our love is here to stay. 


I'd sleep forever 

if forever makes you mine, 

just to dream once more 

the interlocking of hearts

and minds. 

~

What ya gonna do when the clouds come round? 

What ya gonna do when the rain comes down?

I gonna ride that cloud when it come around, 

kiss your lips when the rains come down.


What ya gonna do when the night sky rules?

What ya gonna do when you are growing old?

I gonna dream all night about you,

feel your love like lovers do.

...but you

 The sun has gone down 

and the moon takes it place in the sky, 

I sat there on the porch swing watching

fire flies flying to the trees at night.


My mind does like it does everyday

drifting to you in the usual way.

I imagined sitting here with you,

sharing in a drink between us two.


One thing I know for certain

my life would never be the same,

as you have changed my world 

from that very first day.


There is something amazing

that I can't quite explain, 

but it has to do with how you

touched my world each day.

Uncanny

 It was uncanny how the wind gently performed a dance with one leaf of a pond iris. The leaf gracefully swayed back and forth while  everything else stood still. The rays of the sun could be seen reflecting off the water as it all seem to come together in one of natures very own ballets.  It was at this very moment that I realized how fortunate I am to be part of this wonderful world.  It is the beauty of the season and the memories of you coming together that compliment  the moment. 

Flowers in the wind

the summer just begins, 

thinking of you and I 

as I gaze up at the blue sky.


Traveling thru time 

it all feels like a rhyme, 

documenting the journey

no regrets, what will be, will be.

The Great Escape

 Trying to free the mind, 

I take to the heavens high, 

the dance between us two

where you are truly mine.


I sense your being 

it brings my soul to life, 

if only that I'm daydreaming

it makes this life feel right.


The skies were never so blue,

that is how I feel with you.

Walking through the day 

holding your hand all the way.


From the moment I wake up

till the moon shines above,

I'll be there with you 

forever has a place for two.


My great escape 

free's this restless heart of mine,

through a mere memory 

I'm free to love you more.
