Should I tell you
how I cry late at night
alone in my room
from terror and fright?
Frightened of what? You may ask
Frightened you still love me
Frightened you still care
I"m trying to hide so you cannot see
You don't need to know
how I weep and I cry
alone of the outside
dying inside
You shouldn't care
about what I do
I shouldn't think such thoughts
of you and me too
still holding, still kissing
still two become one
but all that is over
all that is done
Why did it end?
I still want to know
can't we be friends now?
Instead of mortal foes
No, no one needs know
how I cry here alone
how I sob and I shudder
how I scream and I moan
No, no one needs know
about what I do
no, no one needs know
that I do still love you
that certain way you cock your head
that certain way you smile
that certain way you know just what to do
that way I'm behind you by a mile
that certain sweet thing you say
that certain sweet thing you do
that certain voice that you use to say certain sweet things
like those certain "I love yous"
and that certain way you penetrate my heart
and that certain way you care
and that certain way I don't know what to do
anytime or anywhere
and that certain way I love you back
and that certain thing I can't deny
and that certain uncertainty in our lives
like the uncertain wings of a butterfly
and that certain way you cock your head
and those certain things you do
that make me more uncertain each day
of just how much I really love you
out of bordem
I picked up this pen
and took out this paper
and wrote down these words
Out of bordem
I thought about his tender touch
and sweet soft lips
like the wings of an innocent bird
Out of bordem
I cried all these tears
and shed all my anger
and flung out my rage
Out of bordem
I wrote this poem
of how much I love him
right here on this page
I say I love you
what else can I say?
when I hear it from your lips
each and every day
I say I love you
and that's the reason why
my heart is floating
on the wings of a butterfly
I say I love you
that's all that I know
because I feel so empty inside
when you leave me all alone
I say I love you
but you would have a fit
if you were ever to know
I'm not sure I mean it
It's carnation
and it shines
and it's with me always
and it's mine
and it's pretty as a rose
and it's sparkley as dew
and it's such a great reminder
of how much I love you
What is love?
Love is deep down.
Love is caring
Love is doing anything for the one you love.
Love is kindness
Love is togetherness
Love is you and me.
Love is trust.
Love is not lying.
Love is all this and more.
Love is what I give to you.
Dark murky future lies ahead
yet I am not afraid.
For you are by my side.
When you are by me I feel no fear.
The only fear I could ever have
is if you leave me
my love.
