Lost Love

The most amazing moment was when we met
The love and time I have shared with you
have all been; without regret…

In spite of our love…
I am painfully aware
That you are gone, 
And no longer there..

You made up your mind and you went away..
as things started to not feel right…
I know it’s pointless to wish for you to stay..
because at the end of the tunnel there is no more light

Often I don’t know what to say or do..
So many times, I have cried over you…
Emptiness and sorrow is now a part me,
Since I have to accept, that we will never be..

BUT

Our memories continue to live in my heart
As I wish you well, with your brand-new start

Please, believe me when I say
You will always be with me
Come what may

I Knew A Man By Sight

I knew a man by sight, 
A blameless wight, 
Who, for a year or more, 
Had daily passed my door, 
Yet converse none had had with him. 

I met him in a lane, 
Him and his cane, 
About three miles from home, 
Where I had chanced to roam, 
And volumes stared at him, and he at me. 

In a more distant place 
I glimpsed his face, 
And bowed instinctively; 
Starting he bowed to me, 
Bowed simultaneously, and passed along. 

Next, in a foreign land 
I grasped his hand, 
And had a social chat, 
About this thing and that, 
As I had known him well a thousand years. 

Late in a wilderness 
I shared his mess, 
For he had hardships seen, 
And I a wanderer been; 
He was my bosom friend, and I was his. 

And as, methinks, shall all, 
Both great and small, 
That ever lived on earth, 
Early or late their birth, 
Stranger and foe, one day each other know.

When It Begins…

I always knew that love would come find me someday
but never did I know that it would be you who was headed my way
you caught me off guard and took me by surprise
but you simply captivated me, the same way you do when I look into your eyes.

It’s true that every good and perfect gift is from above
you were presented to me as a beautifully packaged gift full of humor, talent, intelligence, beauty and love
“it isn’t finding the perfect person but learning to see an imperfect person perfectly”
we all have our flaws but when I view you through my eyes, perfection is all I see

From when you laugh to when you’re upset, I still love the little things you do
especially hearing you laugh and seeing your nose wrinkle the same way mine does too
coming into this relationship has been hard at times but we’ve made it through
I know as long as we’re on this journey together, there’s nothing that we can’t do.

Sometimes I wonder if what we have is too good to be true
too scared to get my heart broken and scared of the thought of losing you
but in the end, I trust in the author and perfecter of what I believe
because what we ask for in Him, we in return shall receive.

“Where your treasure is, your heart will be also” is how the saying goes
I may not know what tomorrow may bring, for God is the only one who knows
the one thing I do know is that you are my one and only
a treasure in my heart that I want to devote my whole life to completely

I know I don’t need to prove my feelings to know they’re true
because what I’ve known in my past, doesn’t come close to the experience I’ve shared with you
I’ve had the experience of being in relationships before
however, this is the first time I’ve been truly happy… I couldn’t ask for anything more
it’s an honor to know that I am yours, as you are mine
and I trust God that He’ll bring us together in His beautiful time

For now, I’ll be waiting patiently for that day when we’ll be together
that precious moment in time when I’ll say, “it’s you that I want to be with forever”
God made everything beautiful, precious and new
just as beautiful and precious as the day will be, when I look into your eyes and say, “I Love You.”
