TO THE ONE I LOVE

Wish I could spell out all my thoughts in words so you could see
How many of them are of you and how much you mean to me
But since I can't express myself the way that I would like to
I'll sum up all my deepest thoughts in just three words

I LOVE YOU......

MY BEST FRIEND

You are here with me at the beginning of the day and in my dreams at night
You exist somewhere in the depths of my heart for with you it's real love that I share
I get through the day with just thoughts of you
Wherever I am, I feel your presence near
Without the memories that I hold dearly of you
My world would be full of bitterness and despair.

I was taught as a child to be careful
Of the things I am told and choose to believe
So making you my best friend was a choice I made wisely
I just can't shake the influence you have over me.

I consider you a true friend, a real friend, a good pal
To what extent have you affected me
You helped shape my life, through trying times
Thank you for being here with me.......

LIFE'S LESSON

WE CANNOT CHANGE THE PAST
We just need to hold on to the good memories and acquire wisdom from the mistakes we have made

WE CANNOT PREDICT THE FUTURE
We can just hope and pray for the best and believe that what's meant to be will be

WE CAN ONLY LIVE ONE DAY AT A TIME
Let's enjoy the present and always seek to become a better individual

We can never say when our last breath will be taken
Nor how quickly or slowly our greatest achievements will come
So slow things down and see how fast you can get to the place you have dreamt of and was meant to be.

It takes rain to make rainbows
Lemon to make lemonade
And difficulties to make us stronger......

BLACK WOMAN SEARCHING

I've been out there long enough to have acted out all wildness left in my system
And now I'm looking to settle down
Or maybe to settle up

Being single has its benefits and I've taken advantage of them all
And contrary to what I sometimes believe
I don't think I was created with the intention of spending my life alone

I've been to the clubs, socials and all singles scene
But still I haven't been able to find him
Hopefully you can help me
So let me briefly describe him

I'm intelligent, he's brilliant
I'm artistic, he's my inspiration
I'm ambitious, he's goal oriented
I'm a free spirit, he's longing to be free

Am I asking for too much
Maybe
But i'm only asking for as much as I am willing to give.....

SPEECHLESS HEART

The briefest glance
The slightest touch
To those in love can say so much

The highest heights two hearts can reach
Come wordless
Come through silent speech

A special wish from one who loves you
In that special kind of way
That only a heart can feel so deeply
But no words can ever say....

ALL I NEED

All I want is you and the love that you have to give
All I want is you touching me and the getleness of your tender kiss
All I want is to feel your body like silk caressing mine
All I want is to hear you whisper that forever is our time.

All I want to have is the feeling that you always leave with me
All I want to do is cater to you for all eternity
All I want is you caring for me the way you always do
All I need is the courage to just tell you
I LOVE YOU.......
