Love, Trust, Respect, and Communication
These I Can Promise:
I cannot promise you a life of sunshine;
I cannot promise riches, wealth, or gold;
I cannot promise you an easy pathway
That leads away from change or growing old.
But I can promise all my heart's devotion;
A smile to chase away your tears of sorrow;
A love that's ever true and ever growing;
A hand to hold in yours through each tomorrow.

Something SO Beautiful.
I've been working on this one for a while.
I've been working on this one for a while.
You came into my life
A sweet, forbidden fragrance
So delicate…so precious…so beautiful
I could not help myself
A penetrating gaze
Words so soothing
Emotions so refined and free
I saw my heart's reflection in your soul
And quivered with doubt
Could I not fall in love with you?
I could not help myself
Drawn to you
Consumed by your spirit
War tore through my being
Hiding from my own emotions
My feelings for you
Attempts to express or even comprehend
Paled in comparison to your relentless beauty
I loved you…but could I ever reveal my feelings
To you and to myself?
The truth was revealed and secrets were released
How could you feel as I?
For so long my heart ached to know you
Understand you
Comfort you
Hold you
I could not help myself
For so long I grasped the freedom to make you laugh
Not realizing that your smile was so contagious
For so long I kept you upon a pedestal
Out of reach...unobtainable...forbidden
I could not help myself
Everything about you captivated me…
The life and excitement that radiates from your smile
The dramatic flare and peaceful serenity of your eyes
The confidant stride that brings your exquisiteness to all
The unending, unrelenting creative ocean that is within you
I could not help myself – I fell in love with you
The moments we shared are beyond words
Beyond comprehension…understanding...love
You opened your heart
Unguarded...vulnerable...understanding
You shared your life...
My heart listened with blind intent
Every story…every moment...every precious jewel
Your honesty moved me to tears
I could feel myself...yearning for more
You allowed me to taste your heart, body and soul
I thought love knew me and I it
But you brought me within love
My very veins began to burn with such passion
I could not help myself – I cooled my body in your soul's waters
Tales of love and passion have been foreign to me
They have seem so fictional
My heart ached for you – yearned for you – cried out for you
You are more than a kindred spirit as I once labeled you
Words cannot express the love I feel for you
My heart is engulfed in emotion and my soul is consumed
In flames of intense adoration for you
You – the deepest inspiration I have ever experienced
You – the purest heart I have ever tasted
You – the most gorgeous piece of art God has created
I feel as though I may never be completely whole
Without you in my life
My heart rejoices at your embracing it
My soul recalls every refreshing kiss...I savor
Every heartfelt word...I hinge on
Every enchanting fragrance...I fully inhale
Every beautiful image of you...I relish
These images are permanently engraved
I want to make poetry with you
Poetry that knows no boundaries or limits
Poetry that flows as the mightiest river
Poetry that rushes as the sweetest wind
Poetry that screams the purest love
Poetry that whispers enticing tales
If I never receive the blessing of this scribing
The sonnets that you have performed with me
Are so priceless...so precious...so intricate
Life has new meaning since you soared within
Our relationship has a new chapter –
One that I cannot put down and must read
Every last word, syllable, breath
I thirst for more
Hold this true – I will always love you
You have given me so many gifts
I never knew someone could express such love
And share it with me
Your gifts are not given in vane
I am overwhelmed and so blessed
My heart wishes to entangle with your soul
Completely and totally enveloped by your passion
You love with every inch of that which God created
You have freely given love to me
I have accepted and will cradled it forever
The love we share I have tried to express in this creation
I pray my scribing has captured but some of its being
For now, I yearn to know more of you – to love more of you
I dream of the day – a day that my heart holds dearest
When I can love you – as you deserve to be loved
...Forever quenched by your refreshed waters...
