          ***** Friend*****

A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place

A stranger came to the door at eve, And he spoke the bridegroom fair. He bore a green-white stick in his hand, And, for all burden, care. He asked with the eyes more than the lips For a shelter for the night, And he turned and looked at the road afar Without a window light. The bridegroom came forth into the porch With, "Let us look at the sky, And question what of the night to be, Stranger, you and I." The woodbine leaves littered the yard, The woodbine berries were blue, Autumn, yes, winter was in the wind; "Stranger, I wish I knew." Within, the bride in the dusk alone Bent over the open fire, Her face rose-red with the glowing coal And the thought of the heart’s desire. The bridegroom looked at the weary road, Yet saw but her within, And wished her heart in a case of gold And pinned with a silver pin. The bridegroom thought it little to give A dole of bread, a purse, A heartfelt prayer for the poor of God, Or for the rich a curse; But whether or not a man was asked To mar the love of two by harboring woe in the bridal house, The bridegroom wished he knew.

He walked into my life,
I wasn't looking for love.
We have our differences,
but our hearts are joined from above.

People change
as time goes by,
but as long as we're strong,
our love will never die.

I see things now
with a different view;
this love we have,
happens to very few.

Being apart is tough...
One thing both of us know to well.
But our love can withstand the distance,
because in love, we fell.

I'll stand beside you,
As I know you'll do for me.
No matter what you may encounter,
In your heart I will always be.

I will be with you
Through happiness and strife,
Because my baby:
YOU ARE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!

Dedicated to:(secret!)

What would people do, If today they heard I died? How many people would laugh, And how many people would cry? Would they try to hold it in, Pretend that they were strong? Or if they didn’t cry at all, Would they think that they were wrong? What about the first man in my life, Would he shed a tear at all? Or would he not know how to take it, And on the ground he’d fall? I wonder how many people would be in shock, Now that my life has been erased. Would the places that I once filled Stay empty, or would I be replaced? I wonder who would jump for joy? How my teachers would react. Or how many people I never knew, Upon whose lives I have impact? Would people show their feelings at all, Or would they have too much pride? How many people would say they love me, Finally, on the day I died. 

What if I say I shall not wait!
What if I burst the fleshly Gate-
And pass, escaped- to thee!

What if I file this Mortal- off-
See where it hurt me- That?s enough-
And wade in Liberty!

They cannot take me- any more!
Dungeons can call- and Guns implore;
Unmeaning- now- to me-

As laughter- was- an hour ago-
Or Laces- or a Traveling Show-
Or Who died- yesterday!

I REACH INTO MY HEART AND LOVE IS FOUND THERE. THE LOVELINESS THAT CARESSES ME IS KNOWN TO MY HEART BY THE SOFTNESS EXHIBITED IN YOUR FABULOUS EYES. I REACH INTO MY HEART AND THE MEEKNESS OF YOUR SMILE IS THE DECOR OF MY SOUL. BY THE EXTENSION OF MY HAND TO YOURS, I’M REACHING WITHIN TO SURRENDER AND LAY MY LOVE AT YOUR FEET. I SEARCH MY MIND AND SUCH BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS OF OUR FRIENDSHIP BLESS MY LIPS WITH SMILES GENERATING EMOTIONS THAT SWEETEN MY INWARD HAPPINESS AT THE LOVE I HAVE FOR YOU. WITH MY MIND’S EYE, SCRUTINIZING MY AFFECTIONS FOR YOU, THERE I’VE DISCOVERED ONE MISSING LINK TO THE CHAIN THAT LOCKS OUR HEARTS TOGETHER. I REACH FORTH FOR YOUR LOVE, MY DEAREST. I FIND BLOOD AND TEARS. I SPEAK OF MY HEART, BUT YOU ARE NOT NEAR TO HEAR ME SAY, I LOVE YOU.

Once upon a time
In a land far away,
You and I loved
Yet in a different way.
For we have always been together
In more than just this life,
And will be forever
Now that you are my wife.

Because soulmates are made
For eternity,
To love and to cherish
Just you and me.

Now should you get mad
At something I might do,
Just remember that I love you
And that you love me too!
