The World Is
The world is my life
And the world is where I live,
And here I'll find myself a wife,
And here I'll suffer this pain and strife.
My name is Earth,
I was born in the sky,
And it is the place of my mirth,
And the sea is the place I die.

Thinking Of Love
When I think of love ...
I think of roses and red hearts ...
quiet walks ...
and very soft,tranquil music ...
I envision an eagle taking flight on a crisp fall morn ...
the first snowflake in the winter ...
and the sound of the first robin in the spring ...
I envision a glorious sunrise ...
a spectacular rainbow ...
and stars brightly shining on a summer night ...
But most of all,I envision you ...
your eyes radiating warmth,joy and vibrance ...
and the tender feelings in my heart
from your friendly smile.

This Won't Be
This won�t be the last time I�ll cry
But these are my last tears for you
I think it�s time I get on with my life
And realize that we�re through
This won�t be the last sad poem
Written in the middle of the night
But this is the last one about you
That I�m ever going to write
This won�t be the last sad sigh
I waste on someone
who doesn�t love me
But never again will I try
to act like
The girl I think you would want me to be
This won�t be the last slow dance with you
Or the last moment that had to end
But this is the last time I�ll wish
That you were more than just my friend
It�s time to face the fact
That we really are through,
And I know I�ll lose my heart again...
But never again to you.

Times
I look through old pictures
And remember the fun times we had.
I sit back and daydream
About the games we used to play.
I start to think about
The way things are now,
And I wonder,
When did we change?
We used to be the best of friends,
No one could ever separate us.
We would talk all night,
And no one would know our secrets.
We would have private jokes,
And no one would know what we meant.
We now have no idea about each other.
Our lives are no longer the same.
I miss the way things were.
No one knows my secrets.
No one knows my dreams.
I cannot talk to anyone
Like I could talk to you.
No one knows anything about me.
No one knows how I feel.
But I know that I miss you.
I want to go back
To the way things were.
I cannot do it alone.
I'm willing to change again.
I need you to meet me halfway,
Or else I will never succeed.
I need you now more than ever.
Please,come back to me.
I love you,I miss you,
Nothing has been the same.
I don't know why we drifted apart.
All I know is how I feel.
There is one thing that I want
More than anything else.
If you are willing,
Let's start all over.
Let's be the best friends
That we once were.

Together Forever
I love you.
I cannot live without you.
I would like to give you
everything that is mine
telling you more and more
until we grew to be one
together until the hour should come
for us to die.
Even now the tears rush to my eyes
and sobs choke my throat
as a I write this
bear with me a little
even if I am inconsiderate and unmanageable
and believe me we will be happy together.
Let me love you in my own way.
Let me have your heart always close to mine
to hear every throb of my life,
every sorrow,every joy.

Trust Thy Self
Happiness itself is sufficient excuse.
Beautiful things are right and true;
so beautiful actions are those pleasing to the gods.
Wise people have an inward sense of what is beautiful,
and the highest wisdom is to trust this intuition
and be guided by it.
The answer to the last appeal of what is right
lies within a person's own breast.
Trust thyself.

Two Lost Souls
A lonely soul
Battered,broken,and abused
Searching for the love
Needed to Survive.
One loving soul
Caring,compassionate,and sincere
Watching and waiting
For the time to reveal his love
Turning towards him
Needing a sympathetic ear
Wanting so much more.
He wraps his arms
Around her frail body
And fills her soul with light.
Two lost souls
Finding each other
Depending on and needing the other
Ready to face the world
With the love they now share.

Two Seeds
Someone,somewhere is peacefully
watching two seeds haphazardly
tossed by a strong wind,
Lightingly landing side by side
on soft fertile soil,growing
separate together in a vast,expanding
landscape under the same sun,
under the same moonclinging
to their own roots....deep,
hard,determined,still side
by side,intertwining,
growing closer,sharing the same air,
the same wind,the same rain....
Learning to understand,to comfort,
to give,to receive,to love.

Two Souls
When our two souls stand up
erect and strong,
Face to face,silent,drawing
nigh and nigher,
Until the lengthening wings
break into fire
At either curved point,
what bitter wrong
Can the earth do us,
that we should not long
Be here contented!
Think.
In mounting higher,
The angels would press on us
and aspire
To drop some golden orb of
perfect song
Into our deep,dear silence.
Let us stay
Rather on earth,Beloved -
where the unfit
Contrarious moods of men recoil away
And isolate pure spirits,and permit
A place to stand and love in for a day...
