Amazing, that’s what she said
Hollow words to echo in my head
Be my friend, the sound of her voice bittersweet
Words she wants me to say back but I cannot repeat
Tearing at my heart, words meant to soothe my soul
Heart consumed by the darkest black hole
Disappointment lingers in the air
So much to offer yet not allowed to share
Dawn breaks a new light
Dreams of lost chances hover from the night
Another lesson in life over before it began
This time it was not I who ran
Curious glances and snickers abound
A new found strength and courage to be found
No more will I hide or be filled with shame
No more will I play the pretending game
A brave new world for me
A chance for people to see
To my sadness such a brief encounter
To my delight your ability to empower
Darkest night yet I lay awake
Fresh hopes caress with a new day break
Troubled past left in my wake
The world lives again as the sun begins to rise
No more running, no more lies
Truth and honesty seen with open eyes
From past mistakes lessons are learned
Try to leave bridges left unburned
New love awaits with friendships earned
No regrets or forgetting the past
The future promises new memories to last
New lives to touch, new hope to grasp
I catch her smile with a stolen glance
Our eyes meet, first kiss left to chance
Held so tight as we begin to dance
The scent of her perfume so intoxicating
The race of her pulse tantalizing
The most beautiful face, always smiling
Eyes as green as a deep forest moss
Hair left down, shining with gloss
So struck by her beauty my words are lost
The night envelops us in its hand
Dancing to music played by no band
No one else matters, this is our land
Sitting helpless, miles apart
Tears in her words, pain in her heart
Fear of hurting her with my mistake
Only so much one person should take
Enough pain weighs on her shoulders
Harsh broken feelings linger and smolder
Tore down walls that should never be replaced
Only love and honesty will give you that open space
Times are darkest in the peak of the night
Love isn’t a battle you should have to fight
Sacrificed herself for the sake of others
Taken for granted, all she asks is a caring lover
Sands of time will tell of her fate
Happiness and love, not a moment too late
With the deepest caring I will always listen
With a heavy heart and tears that glisten
I cannot replace what I took when I strayed
But I will promise to never turn away
No chance encounters ever occur
God's plan for us all is always solid and sure
Friendships gained through personal disappointment
Just means a friendship with God's anointment
Regardless of self sacrifice each has made
The value of this friendship cannot be paid
This is a friendship that will always remain
A pure and simple sin to refrain
Fingers trembling as she takes me by the hand
The look in her eyes more than I can stand
The passion of the night trembles and quakes
Every nerve in my body wide-awake
Her lips meet mine full of passion
Convey the longing for satisfaction
Fully naked, her body against mine
I need to feel our bodies together entwined
Caress my hand down from her cheek
The taste of her tongue ever so sweet
Trailing my hands over her ever curve
Awakening her senses and every nerve
From her lips to her neck my kisses explore
Her breath catches as she asks for more
My hands reaching down, I can feel her heat
Her body tingles from her head to her feet
Gently probing my fingers inside
Our world seems to move with the ocean tide
My lips brush across her nipple
Tongue swirling, taking gentle nibbles
She runs her fingers though my hair
The scent of our bodies in the air
Feeling her skin under my lips
Soft gentle kisses along her hips
Excitement building that neither can stand
Her gentle urging becomes a demand
My tongue is delighted as it gets its first taste
The passion built but moving without haste
Her body reacting to my every move
I give her everything with nothing to lose
Her body is rocked as she reaches orgasm
Our love is complete and deeper than any chasm
Once again, she walks alone
So many times the path has worn out stone
The wind sends a chill through the bone
On the horizon, she sees a light
Gives her purpose to walk through the night
The end of her heart’s lovesick fight
She reaches her lover’s house she will call home
A sense of belonging finally known
Her roots have rain and now can be grown
A thousand screams caught in her throat
In total darkness voices mock and gloat
No bridge exist to cross this moat
Dreams remain endless nightmares
The truth spoken, life is unfair
Heart caught in a painful snare
At times there feels like no tomorrow
Drowning in a sea of sorrow
A chance at happiness no one allows her
The world around her out of control
Eternity waits and is forever slow
Now or never, it is time to go
Take all the pieces to put back together
Staying leaves no chance to get better
Only true love will ever mend her
The gentle breeze blows the grass
Each blade bows in an elegant dance
Birds in song take off in flight
Flying towards Heaven in the warm sunlight
Buds on the trees yearn to open
Miracle of life held within them
The world we live is a beautiful place
To ignore all that is offered is the worst disgrace
God holds the world in His loving hands
Every creature a well thought out plan
Keep cherished ones close, only one chance to live
Life and love God’s gift to give
All you want is there to take
Life is yours and it is what you make
