_And_

There is a girl named_
There is a boy named _
They like to have a lot of fun
Doing things they like

They like to go on nature hikes
They like to play hide and seek
They love to spend their time together
Listening to each other speak

She really likes him a lot
He is her best friend
He made a promise to her
That his love would never end

She began to cry
As she thought how happy she was
He said "I will wipe the tears
Because that's what a best friend does."

She felt a sense of joy
Deeply from within
As long as she has his love
She will always win

 

Time Is Near

You make my soul soar to new heights
You rapture me with your delights

When I look into your face
The only one in the human race
To whose heart I can back trace
To your love and God's grace

Anything outside is peripheral
Because our oneness is literal

It's only a matter of time I've been told
Before you are mine to behold

The veil is nearly down, as are the walls
Soon to be joined in those heavenly halls

It's so close I can taste it
The love, I'll never waste it

The force can't be stopped
My desire can't be topped

I'm almost there, I can feel it
Waiting for the word to seal it

My love, I'm on my way
It could happen any day....

Masterpiece

A vision of beauty
A work of art
I love you
With all my heart

Soulful eyes
Chiseled jaw
You've got me
Filled with awe

I love your skin
Cocoa brown
I love your voice
A soothing sound

You're so smart
A beautiful mind
Anything better
I can't find

How I love you
My sweet sunshine
I am yours 
And you are mine

Intoxicate Me

Intoxicate me
The way that liquor do
Make me tipsy
And feel brand new

Satisfy my soul
Like only you know how
Bring me to my knees
Make me take a bow

Make tonight the night
I scream your name
Nourish our souls
More than any fame

I'll allow you to make me happy
I'll give up all control
I'll stop being selfish
And let you love me whole

From now until forever
Surrender is my name
That's my gift to you
To let you lead the game

 

Without You

Without you
I'm like

A fin without a fish
An expectation without a wish
A day without night
A butterfly without flight
A sea without a shore
On opportunity without a door
A sandwich without bread
A body without a head
A key without a lock
A shoe without a sock
A walk without feet
A heart without beat
A win without a goal
A spirit without a soul
A life without breath
A love without depth

I need you
I love you
I just can't exist
Without you

 M

I Wish

I wish I could tell everyone
Everything about you
I wish I could tell them all
Of the wonderful things you do

I'd tell them how you make me happy
Whenever I'm feeling sad
I'd tell them that we like being silly
And you always make me glad

I wish that I could tell them
That you treat me like a queen
Not in a materialistic way
But with what's important and unseen

I'd tell them how you brought me back
Like a shepherd, back to God
You helped to reinforce that bond
It's not in any way odd

For now I'll keep our love a secret
I guess it's just what I must do
As long as we have God's blessing
Nothing matters but me and you

Mask

I'm broken
Fix me
Sometimes life
Kicks me
They hurt me
With lies
I've been deceived
What a surprise
What have I done
To deserve such a fate
To be pummeled with deception
Envy and hate
All I want is love
Is that too much to ask
I'll have to wait til Heaven
To give up this mask

Lady In Waiting

They call me
Lady in waiting
Standing in the shadows
Anticipating

Waiting for my love
To tell me he's done
All is ready
Come home, run

Waiting for our King
To show us the time is now
We'll be so grateful
Fall on our knees and bow

Until that time
I'm your lady in waiting
Crying, yet patiently
Anticipating

 

No Tomorrow

Gonna sow them seeds
Like there ain't no tomorrow
No time to waste
Ain't got time for sorrow

I know it's comin'
Right around the corner
Gotta plant them seeds
Stop bein' a mourner

It's pretty obvious
It's crystal clear
The time to reap
Is comin' near

They don't listen 
To what I share
They don't believe it
Or they don't care

I guess it don't really matter to them
But for me, ain't no more time to borrow
I'm gonna sow them seeds like crazy
Like there really ain't no tomorrow

No Feelings

No feelings
No pain
No sadness
To gain

No feeling 
No tears
No crying
Through the years

Ignored and abandoned
Don't hurt
Being used
Don't feel like dirt

Friends and family
Convenient when needing
Don't see my agony
I'm slowly bleeding

Few see the pain
Maybe it's my fault
Locked away
In my private vault

They ask how I am
Only superficially
So I answer the question
Just as artificially

They just choose not to see
When I wear my heart on my sleeve
They're blind to the fact
That I openly grieve

All is not lost
God really loves me
He gave me one to love
Unconditionally

Storing my treasures in heaven
Because here they rust away
There is where I'll have my love
A love that's there to stay
 

 

Still

Trembling
With desire
Burning
With fire
I need you
So badly
I'll run to you
Gladly
I'm being patient
The best I can
But I long to be
With my man 
I have to learn
To love you right
Before I can have
You in sight
We're one soul
And one mind
The rest of the prize
Not too far behind
Waiting is hard
But I do still
Because I love you
And always will

 
 

I Can Feel It

I can feel it
We're working hard
Sowing the seeds
In our paradise yard

Laboring and toiling
You right there
I'm laboring from love
From right here

I can feel the love
While you water our lot
It sprinkles down to me
In just the right spot

We'll reap love forever together
With constant attention and care
I'm hoping and praying
That our time is near

Never

Won't
Can't
Will never
 Shan't

Destiny
Fate
Much too
Great

Ingrained
Attached
Forever
Matched

Impossible 
Mission
Permanent
Condition

Hanging on
With all my might
The promised land
Is in near sight

What It Is

When we were younger
We wondered
Made many mistakes
We blundered

Spent our whole lives
Trying to fill the hole
Thought it could be filled
By reaching a great goal

Still there was something
In our souls that were missing
Catching false bites
While blindly fishing

When the time was right
Things became suddenly clear
Like a brick on the head
That fell from the air

Now we know what it is
But it's not time for it yet
We have to prepare
And get everything set

Looking in hindsight

Everything fell into place
He knew what he was doing
In His infinite grace

Two souls, one spirit
That's you and me
The best is yet to come
Just wait and see!

Not Afraid

You think I am
But I'm not afraid
I'll have to show you
Of what I'm made

You think I step forward
Then take two steps back
When it's just the knowledge
That I lack

Show and tell me
What I need to know
Whenever it's time
I'm ready to go

Maybe I'm a little scared
Of not being good enough
But I've been told to have faith
And all that good stuff

I'm ready to prove to you
And the world I'm not afraid
To give myself to you
As I have prayed 

The Plead

I love you
Come get me
I need you
So badly

I'm begging
I'm pleading
We both know that
It's you I'm needing

Where you are
Is much better than here
I want to enjoy you
Over there

I promise to be good
I vow to love you right
I promise to honor you
Each  day and night

Send for me soon
I'm so lonely
I was made for you
To love you only

More Than Just A Memory

When they think of you
It's different than what I see
They see you as a particular image
But you're more than just a memory

You are my here and now
A thing that lasts through time and space
A blessed gift  for eternity
A product of God's true grace

These are the things you taught me
You showed me what to do
This is my way of acknowledging that
And another way to say "I love you"

He Is

Ishi is is so good to me
This is what I know
I love the way he is to me
The way he lets it show

When others put me down
He is always there
To put a smile upon my face
To bring me much good cheer

Though he lives so far away
We're standing side by side
He catches me when I fall
He never lets me slide

Sometimes I feel unworthy
Of his lovingness towards me
He scoffs and says "Hey, you
Were made for me, silly.

The only thing I ask of you
Is to take your place next to me
If you keep what you're supposed to
Things will turn out beautifully."

I don't know what I did
To deserve such a wonderful man
But I vow to pray for and love him
Every minute of the day I can.

Without

A queen
Without her king
Such a very
Very sad thing

She tries to be strong
Be the tears still drop
She feels she can't breathe
Her heart wants to stop

She's been given her orders
That she must wait
She's surrendered to His will
Because He's never late

Still she is sad, though
This queen without her king
She knows it's worth waiting for
And will be a beautiful thing

May she use this time wisely
To learn his habits and ways
Allow herself to molded
For future beautiful days...

 

What Love Is

I've always had a soft spot in my heart
For sad, troubled men
For as long as I can remember
From way back when

But now that I've gotten older
I've come to realize
Well, actually it was pointed out to me
By a soul I consider wise

What I thought of as love
Was in fact just human care
My need to rescue someone
Is what really took me there

When I finally found real love
That took over forty years
I took a good look back on things
And learned from all my tears

Real love is a mutual thing
Not just focused upon one
The days of me settling for crumbs
Are finally over and done

A real love doesn't take advantage
And take what they can get
Out of another's caring nature
So that their needs are met

A real love admires that quality
And wants her on his team
So they can work together
With love bursting at the seam

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Got the definition of love right
The difference is amazing
I finally see the light

Forever thankful I'll be
I love someone who fits that mold
Forever I will treasure him
He is more precious than gold

 

Mr Perfect

I think you are perfect
Well, technically you're not
But you're perfect to me
You're what I've got

We all mistakes
I think even on the other side
Our bodies will be perfect
But we'll keep learning for an eternal ride

You have a really good heart
To me your soul is pure gold
I remember that wonderful moment
When my heart to you was sold

You know how to cheer me up
When I'm feeling down
You know when to be serious
You know when to be a clown

You have my eternal gratitude
For your loving, unselfish deeds
I vow to you that forever
I will lovingly fulfill your needs

Mister, you are perfect
At least you are to me
Let me put you on a pedestal
And love you perfectly

 

Piece Of Your Mind

Remember that time when
You gave me a piece of your mind
It literally happened in a dream
About five years behind

Since then I've gotten to know you
In a very special way
I'm evolving more and more like you
Each and every day

I guess you saw something in me
That told you I was yours
We decided to give up our pasts
And open up new doors

I don't even try to pretend
I understand why things happen as they do
I'm just so very grateful
Those roads led me right to you

 

Thank You, Jesus

I want to thank you, Jesus
For saving my life
And that one day I'll be happy
In a world free from strife

You woke me up and shook me
Right to my very core
You made me take the blinders off
Like you'd never done before

You didn't have to do it
But you did it anyway
And forever I will thank you
Every single day

You really got my attention
In a way I never would've guessed
But I guess you know the key to my soul
Though tragic, it ended up being best

The method you used is a secret
Just between You and me
I'll show my gratitude forever
Thank you, Lord, I do love thee

 

I Never See Your Face

I never see your face in my dreams
I think I know the reason why
I think it would make me lose my mind
Because you're such a beautiful guy

Rarely do I dream of you
And when I do it's just your essence
I think the very reason for that
Is I'd be blinded by your luminescence

I guess I rarely dream of you
Simply because the love is true and pure
Cannot currently be seen on the Earthly realm
A Heavenly blessing from God, for sure

So I fall asleep every night
With thoughts of you on my mind
But dreams of my past and current situations
Are pretty much all I find

It really is O.K, though
For this too shall pass
Then my dream of you will be reality
We'll be together, forever at last

Everything's Copacetic

Everything is fine
Everything's copacetic
I'm drawn to you
Because you're magnetic

Things aren't always easy
Being a woman in transition
My body's here, but my soul's there
It's really  an awkward position

I tell myself I'm O.K
And I guess it's kinda true
Except  that my soul is lonely
And my only desire is to be with you

Conversing and bonding with you is great
I'm so thankful that we can
I guess it's all preparation
For me to be the perfect woman to your man

But oh how much I long
To see, smell, taste and touch
To let you know in a physical way
That I love you , oh so much

Love Is Sacrifice

Love is sacrifice
Sacrifice of vice
Or what feels nice

In order to make,
Whatever it takes

Someone worthy feel loved..... 

In The Dark

It's not fun being kept in the dark
It makes me wonder about lots of things
I have no idea of what's going on
I don't know why the caged bird sings

I'm left with just guessing
Whether I'm wrong or right
I ain't that bright, let's face it
I barely know morning from night

I want to do the right thing
I really just aim to please
But with conflicting and unclear information
It can feel sometimes like a tease

I feel like throwing my hands in the air
It's almost as if I have no choice
When the truth is I'm begging, crying and pleading
To hear a reasonable, true and authoritative voice

If I don't have all the right equipment
How can I actively play in the game
I'll just flutter around aimlessly
And things would remain the same

Maybe I'm slow and stupid
But I obviously need things perfectly clear
If I know what I am dealing with
I will give all I have to share

Happy Birthday, Rebecca

Happy birthday, Rebecca
(Does Rebecca mean to Becca again?)
I don't really know
But I know you're a good friend

I hope that this year
All your wishes come true
Because no one deserves it
Any more than you

Please keep on smiling
And spreading good cheer
You're a wonderful person
And I'm happy you're here!
