Faraway

Faraway lover
Undercover

You're always near
In my heart I hold dear

One day we will touch
What we long for so much

My tears you will wipe away
For this is what I always pray

Never again will I be lonely
For you're the one who loves me only

Anointed and sanctified
God promised me He'd provide

That blessed day when I look in your eyes
I'll know at last, I've achieved my prize

 

A Hug From You

A hug from you
From afar
You really know how
To raise the bar

Just when I think
I couldn't love you more
You do something more wonderful
Than you had before

You make me feel special
Like no one else can
I feel honored
That you are my man

No one else cares about me
The way that you do
From now until forever
I'll belong just to you

All Day

I could sit here all day writing poems to you
But I'll be drowning in my own tears if  I do

But I guess that would be a good way to go
Maybe that's my destiny,  for all I know

No one said it would be easy, at least not directly to me
But forever being in love with you is where I happen to be

What to do? I've looked, I've searched and I've prayed
But spending days loving you is where my heart has stayed

So it looks as if you're stuck with me loving you all day
But I get the distinct impression, you'd have it no other way!

Dear Love,Be Happy

Dear Love,
When I see old pictures of you, being genuinely happy, it makes my soul swell with delight. This is what I want for you, what I hope for you. Even though I'm not there, I see the pure, innocent joy in you and I want this for you more than anything.
Part of me wishes I can place you into that happy moment. Even if it were only for a few hours, I know at that exact moment in time, you were blessed with the peace and happiness God wants for His children in a permanent way. I feel I should step out of that moment in time and leave you with whatever or whomever was causing you joy so that you might go on feeling that way.
See, the thing is, I know you want the same for me, but the truth is you are what makes my soul dance with happiness. Even just me looking at you being happy is enough for me.
I don't know about you, but you will see some pictures of me in the past  where I appear to be happy. Unless, they were from childhood, the feelings weren't genuine. Forced happiness. Do you know what I mean? You might even see one of me crying for joy, but in my heart of hearts, I know I was only crying for what I thought I finally accomplished. It wasn't real and was born out of sin. I know this now. I can only hope when I see you looking so incredibly happy, that these were genuine emotions. I feel I can tell the ones that are real because I see the purity and innocence in your eyes. I can see God's special child glowing through you. This is what I want for you, forever.
My love, if I think you could achieve this beautiful feeling without me, I will gladly step aside. I could spend forever just being an angel watching you be happy.
But I'm human and always will be. Even when I go on to my eternal home. You love me and want my happiness as much as I do yours. So it's only fair to let you know that my happiness is you.
Let me forever fulfill my role of making you happy, so I too, can be happy.
I know you are now happy. Let me see that smile,boo!

Tell Me It's O.K

I've been told
That it's my mission
To love you purely
Without condition

But I do crave your love,I can't deny it
Is that O.K?
You said "Yes, because you're literally part of me
It cannot be any other way.

You love your hand unconditionally
If it went away you would miss it
It's the same how you crave for me
My mouth, you want to kiss it

It's O.K that you need me
Stop feeling bad
I need you too
I hate seeing you sad

The hand will unite with the body
When some time has passed
You'll be happy, I promise
When we're together at last

I know it's hard for you
But you're doing fine
We'll never be apart
Because you're my lady, all mine."

Beside Myself

I'm beside myself
When I think of you
Which is something
I constantly do

I'm beside myself
Not in front or back
When it comes to my heart
You've got the knack

I'm beside myself
With my sexy boy
When I think of you
I jump for joy

I'm beside myself
Oh, the things you inspire
Forever and always
The only one I'll desire

I'm beside myself
I know I'm not wrong
I will be one with you
For eternity long

I'm beside myself
And I'll do all that I can
To show how I love
That you are my man

 

Tell Me

Tell me where it's at
Tell me where we're going
Tell me what to do
What should I be knowing

Tell me when to go 
Tell me how to act
Tell me what is real
Tell me what is fact

Tell me that you love me
Tell me it's really true
Tell me that you're happy
That I'm in love with you

 

No One

Do you realize I love you
More than I thought was allowed
I feel no shame
In fact, I feel proud

I wish I could share it
With all whom I know
I want them to be happy for me
But we're on the down low

You're such a beautiful man
I see the Christ-like qualities in you
I see the love and intelligence
In everything you do

The thing that will make me happy
Is knowing your sorrow has been released
Your eternal happiness is my strongest prayer
And all unhappiness has been ceased

So much love I have for you
I feel sometimes I'll lose my mind
Thank God for putting it in my heart
There's no one more perfect I could find

 

Mojo Rising

Feeling kinda amorous
A little bit this morning
The mojo is rising
I give you fair warning

My lips are quivering
My heart palpitates
My libido is growing
My mouth salivates

My mind's just on one thing
My needs are immense
My feelings so strong
My desires intense

I want you so badly
Please tell me how
I feel I'll explode 
If I don't have some now

This Song Reminds Me Of You

This song reminds me of you
For some strange reason
It has nothing to do with you
But I find it very pleasin'

I guess it reminds me of a time
When I was in a particular place
I didn't realize it at the time
But I was searching for your face

I had always wanted to go to California
It had always been on my mind
So I packed up and took a leap of faith
Not knowing what I'd find

Maybe part of me thought I could be a star
 Something had always drawn me there
But in hindsight years later I see
It's because you were so near

If I go over my life's path
I can see I've shadowed you in small ways
I guess since I love you I always will
Til I join you at the end of my earthly days

Anyway, this song somehow reminds me of you
Even though it wasn't popular at the time
I just saw the video on VH1
And thought it would make a cool rhyme

Think About It

Sometimes when I think of it
I get so doggone amazed
When I put two and two together
And realize how much life is staged

You can't see at the time
How things were clearly planned
You may think you're in control
But you don't have the  upper-hand

It might take a brick to the head
To make you finally see the light
You'll feel better when you finally give in
And no longer put up a fight

Even me writing this poem
Is somehow meant to be
I know it's not from me
When the words come flowingly

Not everyone will be smart
Or all have fortune or fame
But everything has a reason
And we're all part of the game

So try to relax and know this
Though you sometimes wonder why
Just live your life with the flow
You'll find out when you die

I Want To Live With You

I want to live with you
No one else, just you alone
I need to be with you 
In a place that's just our own

I want us in our very own space
Where bad memories don't exist
To build our own new memories
While the old ones cease and desist

I'll help make it a happy home
When you choose or build our house
No more loudness or drama
We'll be quiet as a mouse

Except the sound of our laughter
Or our talking and making love
Well start our life in paradise
Just as peaceful as a dove

I want to live with you
I hope God answers our prayers soon
So I can feed you my love
With a side of macaroons

I'm So Excited

I'm so excited
I sense I'm near the pinnacle
Just need to have patience
To overcome any final obstacle

Sometimes there are feelings of inadequacy
Sometimes there are feelings of doubt
But I feel I'm loved in the pit of my soul
And that's what it's all about

Keep on drawing me closer
Stronger than magnet to steel
Let  us continue to mold as one
Let's finally seal the deal

Don't ever want to look back
On all our hardships and pain
But if they were the dues for us pay
Then all that trouble was worth the gain

I sense changes coming
Just like you said
I'm so excited
Hold my hand as we tread

Chocolate Drop

Can't wait to have
My sweet chocolate drop
Just around the corner
A skip, jump and hope

Velvety and sweet
Smooth and creamy
The answer to my prayers
Yummy and dreamy

Longing and yearning
For my sweet chocolate drop
So worth the wait
For the cream of the crop

Everything

You're the difference
Between my being happy or sad
Without you I'm blue
With you I'm glad

You're the love of my life
You're the sunset in June
You're my happiness factor
You're the light of the moon

You're the blood in my veins
That flow to my heart
You're a masterpiece to me
A true work of art

Darling, I love you
You're the only one for me
I'll love you forever
Beyond all infinity

Here's How I Feel

I feel fine
Cuz you keep me in line
And you're all mine

I feel neat
From my head to my feet
Cuz your love makes me complete

I feel good
Like a loved woman should
You do what you promised you would

I feel so nice
Like cheese to the mice
I'm the sugar to your spice

I feel gladly
That I love you madly
And want you so badly

No need to be coy
Because you are my boy
And bring my heart joy

Here's what I'll do
Though it's nothing new
I hereby claim my love for you

 

The Best Honey

You're the best honey
The best of the lot
I'm so thankful
For what I've got

You're like a honey bee
Giving me sweets
My moments with you
Are delicious treats

You're my only true friend
You're so precious to me
Your sweetness is so pure
You're the world's best honey

 
 

Orange You Glad

Orange you glad
I'm no longer afraid
To show the world
Of what I am made

They may think I'm crazy
And possibly they're right
Crazy in love with you
With all of my might

I don't really care
What they might think
I'll be with you soon
When the eye makes a blink

I got the promise
From the Ultimate Source
If He says it so
I'll believe it, of course

Orange you glad
I'll come home to you soon
Just the very thought
Sends me over the moon

We Are A Team

Two
Equals
A
Miracle

Heavenly Treasure

Going to do what the Good Book said
What I was fortunate enough to have read

In Heaven I will store up my treasure
It's more than on earth I could ever measure

Can you guess what that treasure is?
A thing of wonder and beauty 'tis

My treasure is you, my beloved one
In paradise is where we'll have our fun

Anything here can go bad or rust
Can lose its value or turn to dust

That is why I send you love in all I do
You're my heavenly treasure and I love you

My Deed

I've completely signed over to you my deed
Because the truth of the matter is you're all I need

I've stopped my ego from holding me back
I trust in you to provide all which I lack

I've lost all desire to live just for me
Cleaved to your side is where I must be

Please take my hand and lead me your way
There's not much else for me to say

I stand before you with my soul open wide
Please come take me home to be your bride

Please understand my devotion to you
Just say the word and that's what I'll do

Please shout loudly and make your desires clear
As I tell the world I love you and you are my dear

 

Your Love Is Like, Wow!

I'm just actually in love with you
Just as is the ocean's blue
There's not a thing that I can do
I'm stuck to you like Elmer's glue

I can never try to ignore this now
I've tried and I didn't know how
Because we've made this eternal vow
Besides, my sugar, your love is like, Wow!

I love you so, you are my vice
I'm forever your girl, like white on rice
The love we share is just so nice
Your love is like, Wow! I had to say it twice.

Tell Me What To Do

Sometimes the pain is unbearable
But surviving because I am capable

Though I can get so lonely
Left by myself only

I know there is a reason
For every purpose has a season

I know intellectually this to be true
But it's those pesky feelings, what to do?

I trust in God's plan
After all, He's "the Man"

He's got something special in store
I've got to be more patient than ever before

The longing  must be a lesson in and of itself
To never take love for granted and put it on the shelf

I'm willing to take the antagonizing anticipating
Just please tell me what to do with the pain of waiting......

(to all I miss)

This Time It's For Real

This time I know it's for real
That's exactly how I feel

When I looked into your invisible eyes
I knew I could no longer live with the lies

I knew inside there was a curse
Then I remembered a Bible verse

Things unseen last forever
Worldly things last almost never

What we have is too good for here
So I must wait to be with you, dear

But we communicate in our own special way
I thank God He allows it, every day

My heart and soul belong to you
I'm partner to you in all I do

Please feel all this love I profess
I think of you constantly, I confess

Please help me get through this time that I wait
Of the future we both long for at some near date
 

 

My Raven Is A Dove

My raven is a dove
Sent from up above

When I believe I can't go on any longer
It taps on my soul and makes me stronger

Instead of mocking "nevermore"
It reassures me of "forevermore"

When I cry from my anguished soul
Longing for my love to make me whole

I'm reminded he's in Paradise with our Father
And with these lonely tears, I shouldn't bother

"Forevermore" this dove says to me
Over and over of what is to be

Forevermore, I'll one day be with my love
Forevermore in eternity  above

This dove is my raven that gives me hope
It's the only way for me to cope

Beautiful dove that is my raven
Thank you for leading me to this haven 

 

Forever, Love

Drunk in love
Intoxicated
Like a sponge
Saturated

Seeped through my pores
Drowned
Baptized forever
Bound

Spoken for in each
Breath
Mine forever in
Death

Your everything I am
Friend
My love for you will never 
End

Your Voice

There's nothing more beautiful to me
Than the sound of your voice
I'd listen to it forever
If given the choice

A gift from Heaven
I'm pretty sure
Full of emotion
Yet, sweet and pure

The day you were born
It fell on you like a mist
Given to you by Holy Spirit
Than sealed with a kiss

A gift that touched many
But meant something different to me
It was my sign from Heaven
A glimpse of what will soon be

Such a beautiful voice
I know you're still singing
Because if I listen real hard
My inner ears hear the ringing

Sing on, my love
Sing forever more
Every sound more beautiful
Than the one before

Sweet And Sexy Soul

Beautiful, sweet
And sexy soul
Don't need a pagan holiday
To feel loved and whole

I need your loving
And attention everyday
It's the only way to do it
There is no other way

You are king of my heart
I relish putting you first
When I get a craving
It's for you that I thirst

My beautiful, sweet
And sexy soul
Loving you forever
Is my sweetest goal

To Shirley Temple

Rest in peace
Shirley Temple Black
The smiles you put on my face
Make me happy as I look back

I watched all your movies 
When I was a young girl
You were so cute
With your dimples and curls

When I watched you 
As you sang and dance
I dreamed of being a star
If I ever had the chance

You were  a good person
The way you lived your life
Actress  and ambassador
Good mother and wife

God bless you Miss Temple
In that Place of peace
The legend you leave behind 
In our hearts will never cease

Signs Of Times

Signs popping up everywhere
Hitting me smack in the face
Everywhere I look
It's all over the place

I didn't understand
So I was hesitating
Now that I know
I can't be violating

Time is the answer
To what I was asking
The real truth behind
What had been masking

The best gift I can give
Is the gift of my time
Time equals love
I'll say it in my rhyme

Thank you for the signs
They're exactly what I needed
Now that I know it
You best believe it'll be heeded

 

Your Mother

I love your mother
Because she took care of you
God placed her in your arms
And she knew just what to do

She cared for you as  baby
And as a little boy
She really loved you
And you brought her joy

As it is in this world
People got in the way
From her safe nest
You were made to stray

No matter what happened
Both good and bad
She tried to always be there
With the love that she had

When you were grown
You had to go your own way
No matter your decisions
She always would pray

We know you love her
And she loves you too
And I love your mother
Because she loves you
