Poems
1997
It
used to be when I saw your face
My
mind body and soul would drift into space
The
thought of you and me
Filled
me from my head to my feet
And
I’d dream of you and me
Together
beneath the sheets
Fast
or slow to take our time
It
didn’t matter cause you were mine
Just
to say your name sent chills up my spine
Dreams
of you now bring me nothing but tears
Because
things are so dark, when they used to be so clear
You
haunt my days and you haunt my nights
But
through all your wrongs, I only remember the rights
I
remember the feel of your touch and your smell
Will
I have it again…only time will tell
I
know I may not but I wish it every day
To
once again hear the words “I love you” more than words can say
The
place in my heart that you once occupied
Will
never be filled, even if the feelings subside
There
are thousands of things about you that I miss
But
not your clothes, your body, holding hands, or a kiss
Those
aren’t the reasons I liked you in the first place
It
had nothing to with your body or face
It
was the way that you acted, the words that you spoke
The
way you laughed too hard over a really stupid joke
I
can’t tell you all the things that I miss about you
I
guess it’s too late now there’s nothing I can do
I
can only hope our paths cross again someday
But I just had to let you know how much I used to love you baby.
The
Man With No Face
1998
He’s
there on occasion inside of my dreams
Every
girl has one of her own it seems.
At
night he sweeps you off your feet,
With
a gentle touch that is oh so sweet.
He
has that finesse that makes your heart flutter,
His
love is so deep, you know it’s like butter
You
awake in the morning-he’s left not a trace,
You
still feel his presence but you can’t see his face
Was
he a dream, no he had to be real,
Because
he made you feel like no one’s made you feel
The
laughter and love that you felt in that night,
Was
perfect and pure, he made you feel right.
You
know he’s the one, with whom you’re meant to be,
No
one else can his or your eyes see.
Your
love for each other transcends time and space,
So
why oh why can’t you remember his face?
You
know you’ll be married and have lots of babies,
You
know in your heart –no ifs, buts, or maybes.
The
ironic part is that you don’t have a clue,
To
his identity, but you know his love is true.
I
know I will find him it’s our destiny,
I
know it in my heart, I can feel his love for me.
And
so I must say that this is my case,
My
Mr. Right is my man with no face.
THINKING
OF YOU
When
I am relaxed with
nothing
on my mind
When
I’m watching t.v.
Or trying to unwind
When
I’m just plain chillin’
With nothing to do
In
the back of my mind
I’m
thinking of you
When
I see you out of
the
corner of my eye
When
I look up and see
you
passing by
When
you’re at attention
with
all eyes on you
I’m
sitting back watching
and
thinking of you
When
everything seems to be
When
I wake up with new
obstacles
every day
When
all I’m wanting is you
I’m wishing and hoping and
thinking
of you
