Your smile That lights up you eyes And makes my heart flutter When turned on me. Your eyes that shine Sometimes with happiness, Sometimes with the same Depression that fills my soul. Your laugh, too infrequently heard, That stirs a smile from Everyone who can hear it. Your lips, full and glorious, Set an example for all women. Your curves, so like those Of the women of Ancient Rome, Idolized by all men, Then and now. Your words, not always meaningful, Not always deep, Penetrate my being And echo through my mind. Your voice, shy and equally strong, Speaking or singing, Holds the attention of the room. Your gaze holds me, Roots me by the he

I don't want to be the person That hopes he will leave you. I don't want to b the one That steals you away. I want to be of value Enough to make you want me. I don't want to stand here Loving you all alone.

I met this girl who was almost a woman. I loved her with all my heart and she loved me. But girls have a lot of love that can't be tied to one person, not the way a woman can love one and only one. So she left me for him, and him for another. Then she grew up, and I don't get to know the woman she became. She loves a man now, a boy in my eyes but a man in hers. I love the girl she was and crave the woman she has become. Although I am grateful for what we had, I regret that I met her so soon.

I want you here in my arms. I love you. You are the most saintly person I have ever met that you would put up with me and my baggage and almost bi-polar tendencies. I love you. I love you. I love you. I can't say it enough, I love you. I love your eyes and how they are cathedrals of dark depths that beckon me in, calling a sad song and telling a story of heartache and courage. I love your smile you so often try to hide, the pinch of the lips before you let it sneak out and warm my heart. I love your nose, perfect in its placement and wrinklability. I love your ears, they the temples that allow me to whisper worships to you. I love yo

My love for you is going to pass into out next lives. When I am reborn, Whoever I am, Wherever I am, I'm going to spend my life looking for you. When I die and am reborn again, I will do it again, Every time Until we reach ascension And are two perfect balls of energy, Floating through space, And even then, With no physical form to love you with, No brain to tell me who you are, I will seek you out with every fiber of my soul And love you for all eternity.

Let me tell you a story. A story of me And the liars and cheaters That brought us here today. All this begging and pleading And tears, I've seen it before And it says nothing to me. You tell me there is nothing between you, That there once was But never will be again. Those are Her words, Just the echoes of all those before. Those tears in your eyes Make my heart squeeze And squirm. Yet, I find no compassion left, It has been wasted on the liars before you. I want to hold you And rock you and tell you everything is okay, That I believe every word that you utter. But with Her words and your words Mixing in my head, All

Any woman who has shared my heart Will always have a piece of it. But you have the lions share. I will always love you But no longer pine for you. I will always be yours, But to ask that of me would be cruel Because you know That what we had was worse Than never seeing each other again. Our love was not meant to be, But I could never say no to you. More than a year has passed Since I stood in your presence. More than a year since I felt your touch. But time is nothing. I fear when I see you next, I will fall back into You.
