If I Love you Tonight


June 8, 2007

If I love you tonight, will you love me tomorrow?
Will you bring me happiness and take away my sorrow?
Will it be forever and ever; just like you promised me?
Will it be honest love: truly, madly, deeply?

If I say those three words, will you stay through the night?
Will you place my heart on wings, and fly me towards new light?
Will you kiss me with passion and new-found emotion?
Will you look into my eyes with affection and devotion?

If I looked into yours, would I see a sincere world?
Would you value me more than any priceless pearl?
Would you make an effort to always place me first?
And be my loving angel to protect me from the worst?

Will you let me be the only one
you dream of when you sleep?
And create cherished memories
that we will forever keep?

Will you be my hero, and stay through every fight?
Will you love me tomorrow if I love you tonight?

Bliss.


December 2007
Do you see?
It's a blanket of Bliss falling from the sky.
Oh, How I wish to just melt into it,
Have it softly lay itself upon me,
Engulf me,
So that I may see the world through Blissful Eyes.
I could lay there for hours,
Become an Angel of the Snow,
Forget all the troubles,
and woes,
and sorrows,
and pains;
Be environed by Only Bliss.
As I lay there,
every snowflake upon my face
would become a
part of me.
And I'd dream for it,
and wish for it,
Until I become Pure Bliss,
and finally have
Eternal Peace.

Love runs Deep


February 26, 2008

How lovely it is to see your face.
Your bright eyes shine on my heart,
and I've let you get to the depths of me.
My love runs deep for you,
and your love has touched every inch of me.

How lovely it is in your embrace.
Your warm touch caresses my soul,
and makes me feel so safe, so secure.
My love runs deep for you,
as for any ailment, your kiss is the cure.

How lovely it is in your presence;
Your love is of the purest essence.
Never reticent,
for I can speak my heart to you.
So incandescent
is this love I hold for you.

All my love runs deep for you.

Take this Heart for You


February 14, 2008

Take this Heart for you.
I've kept it from the world,
But I know it's safe with you.
Others have wanted to steal it,
and bruise it,
even go so far as to break it,
But I've decided to only let you have it,
because I know you have what it takes to love.

Take this Heart for you.
It belongs only to you.
Protect it from harm,
Console it through the worst,
Kiss it when it hurts;
Show it that you truly care.

It only asks to be loved,
so Love it with Everything you have to give.
I trust you with this Heart;
this heart needs your heart to live.
It needs your love throughout every day.
I completely give you this heart,
so take My heart for You.

Angel



March 2, 2010

The Angels are coming
to take you
away,
away from here,
away from us.
They told me
to tell you,
that everything is alright.
We will mourn,
but we will also
rejoice;
For then, you will be
an Angel
among angels.

In and Out of a Moment in Time


November 2009

A New Romance?
But how coult it be, when everything we have is still so sweet,
so fresh, so pure, so young at heart...
Yet, my jealousy sends me spiraling down
into a black hole of filth and
lies.
I can't even bare to look into your eyes...
I feel as though I am far apart
from the touch of your hand, from the warmth of your kiss;
but now they lie, these treacherous lips of mine,
and I feel as if I am no longer thine.
Recapture my love, don't let it stray,
I need you until the end of my days;
Yet, I know, I have made mistakes,
and though I still do,
I want to live this life with you.
These lies of mine echo through my eyes,
they steal your soul into the darkness...
into the abyss--there's no escape once
you've fallen into this...But
I want to reach out.
I need a hand to pull me out of this jealous fit,
out of this cheating hit, out of this endless pit.
He's calling me but he doesn't know my name.
He's asking me to get down on my knees,
but I won't; I am so ashamed.
Midnight Rendevouz?
How can I do that to you?
He was a foolish game, in and out of a moment in time,
and I don't want to hurt you,
most precious Love of mine.
Forgive me. Forgive me.
I promise I will change.
Forgive me.
I love you;
Please forgive me,
most Precious Love of Mine.
I am truly thine.

Most Holy


February 1, 2010

God of Wonders beyond imagination,
Beyond thoughts or ponderings,
Beyond moments or memories;
You’re interwoven meticulously into gorgeous occurrences.
You outshine worldliness; Outdo Yourself on people who continuously condemn Your Holy.

Your wisdom unlocks doors,
allows those without hope to open virtuous perfection;
allows those without hope to observe honest intention;
allows those without hope to conquer tribulations.
O Holy, Most Holy!
Comfort those without hope; Perforate our souls;
Beckon our Love
to something more of
You… Love develops for You,
only You.
O Holy, Most Holy!
Forever Your Love for everyone, Forever You love everyone, Everyone loving Your forever
O Holy, Most Holy!
Complete our forever with your Love Most Holy.

Beautiful Demise


March 7, 2007

Ay! See how she sits properly
Staring warily, yet blissfully,
Out of the sun-soaked window.
With so many thoughts we’d die to know,
As her mind is riveting with care,
While she acknowledges the change in the air.
With a grace that cannot be compared,
She repositions herself in the chair.
The world as seen from the outside
Triggers something unseen on the inside
And this new light finds place in her eyes,
Twinkling with beautiful demise,
For she alone holds the meaning of life.

Ode to Mother



July 1, 2007

You might look at her and see an ordinary woman.

I look at her and see a Fighter,
A Survivor,
A Hero,
A Friend.
I can see even more reflected in her eyes as her love shines through...
If only you knew her stories; where she's been, what she's been through, what she's seen...
Anything and everything that she's had to endure to get to where she is now,
and even though her current situation isn't the best,
she continues to make sacrifices in hopes of the slightest glimpse at success.
She's a strong woman who puts others first and her self second.
She is humble, hard-working, and honest, all of which are traits that would be admired by anyone, especially by those who have witnessed them first-hand.
I've been there for her as she has doubtlessly done for me, yet my love for her fails in comparison.
Her heart is generous,
her actions kind and of the best interest,
her words empowering,
and her smile warm and welcoming.
You might look at her and see an ordinary woman…
I look at her and see an extraordinary mother.

Facing Death with Grace


Have you ever looked out your window and noticed all the lives around you? Have you ever thought about the fact that we may not all be here tomorrow? A young boy of seventeen has had to face that fact sooner than he should have, at least in my perspective. His mother passed away from cancer of the breast, liver, and brain. His mother was 42 years old, with plenty of deserved life left to her, and yet, the cancer got the best of her.

His mother was a very religious woman. She loved God, and everything to do with God, more than anyone I have ever met. She was also one of the sweetest women I have ever met. This woman was dedicated to her faith and was dedicated to showing and living that faith with her only son and her beloved husband. It pains my heart knowing that this young boy, a senior in high school, will not have his mother physically present for his graduations, for his wedding, and for the birth of his first child.

So, where is God in all of this? Where is the Almighty Savior that said, “You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it” (John 14:14)? I have prayed that his mother may not undergo physical suffering, but there was the excruciating chemotherapy. I know that her son and her husband have prayed more than I have, praying for her to stay on earth with them. I know that the young boy was living with never-ending hope that she would make it through. And yet, when his father sat him down and told him that his mother would undoubtedly pass away, the young boy was so broken by the news that he cried and cried. I know that they are going through probably the most difficult time of their lives. And I know that there is nothing I can do or say to ease their suffering.

But God, he who creates and ends all things, can. Jesus says “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father’s house there are many rooms… I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you may also be where I am” (John 14:1-4).

In Jesus, there is eternal support and love—both for those that have passed and for those that will someday be with Him in the Kingdom of God. The young boy knows deep in his heart that he will get through this and that he can get through this with God at his side. For when we undergo our darkest hours, we may feel as if we are walking alone in the world, yet the truth is that it is God who carries us through to the light.
