~*A Father*~
By Your Daughter
A father is a man who watches you grow
He stands back a little and watches the show
Yet when you need him he's by your side
He can fill your heart and soul with pride
He takes your hand when you need one to hold
And he shapes you life like a great big mold
He let's you live your life day by day
Giving you hints a long the way
He watches over you like an eagle in the sky
To make sure that you never do cry
Yet when you do shed a tear or two
He's by your side to help you pull through
He kind of gets on you once in a while
But you know in the end it all seems worthwhile
He warns you of all those awful boys out there
And it's always dad's part to give them a scare
Every father is unique and one of a kind
And I know that one like mine is hard to find
He cares for me, loves me, and does all that he can
To show me that he's my #1 fan
Kiss of Heart & Soul
A Kiss is like the sweet melody of a song
each note as beating hearts
first as two, then as one
A Kiss is like the softness of a rose petal
it first brushes your lips
then brushes your heart
A Kiss is like a warm summer breeze
it fills your body
then touches your soul
A Kiss is like a gentle wave upon the shore
It rolls past your lips
Then dives deep into your spirit;
A Kiss is like the dancing flames of fire
its ember glow with burning passion and desire;
Kissing me softly on my lips,
Will warm my heart with its gentle caress
And leave your imprint of love forever in my soul;
When I really miss you
I don't have to go too far
I just look inside my heart
Cause that's always
where you are
All that I feel inside
What I see in you is more than I confide
What you are to me is my smile and strength
What I feel toward you I protect inside
What you give to me is peace of mind
What I want to express isn't easy to say
Do you feel as I do, so confused at times?
Do you really want me to open up and show what I hide?
Do you trust that to you I can confide, all that I feel inside?
Broken Heart
Standing alone on a moonlit beach
Their shadows walk hand in hand
The bond of love can be seen even through the moons' twilight gleam
Their love grows with each passing day
Never forgotten, never to fade away
All their life, they have dreamt of love such as this
And now they have it, swept away in peaceful bliss
But along comes a stranger, as they sometimes do
To steal him away, to give him love anew
She tries to hide the tears,
She tries to hide the pain,
What she searched for her whole life was gone again
He left without "good-bye"
He left without "I love you"
He left her there
As love can do
Now she sits, and she stares
At the cold glint of steal
Wondering if any of it
Were actually real
She can bear the pain no more
She can't hold back the tears
Now is the reality
Of what were once her fears
Would he care? She wonders
Would he miss her? She thinks
Nay she answers
And into her breast the knife sinks
Her wake, he dismissed
Come to her funeral he did not
For his new love
Was the only thing of which he thought
He cared for her no
He never once grieved
Never gave it a thought
Her death was in vain
But that's the way love goes
And that is where I am.
Can I Keep You
Once an email I did send
I thought shortly it would end .
It hasn't been long but still
I'll hold on with all my will.
I'll try to be strong
Though I don't know how long
But I do know I want you
So I ask, Can I keep you?
Don't act as though it'll last
If you're going to put me in the past
Hell, one day we may be through
Hopefully no time soon,
So for now, Can I keep you?
Please say yes baby,
Just don't say maybe.
Don't play with my heart,
Because it's hard to restart.
To show someone how much you care
Maybe too much to bare.
Say yes, that's all you need to do.
When I ask, Can I keep you?
Cherub Channel
He walks amidst the stars of night
He beams a bright celestial light
To set my lonely heart aflame
At just the mention of his name
And helplessly I float away
I'm swept along Confusion Bay
I'm drifting past the Shore of Chance
Where happy hearts dance
A whirlpool of forbidden thoughts
Where loves strong current has me caught
I smash upon the Rocks of Doubt
Defenseless, I'm tossed about
I'm trapped within a sea of tears
I'm rocked by violent waves of fears
My boat is broken by the tide
My longing passions all subside
I'm emptied in a pool of calm
To watch the water sweep my qualms
Away into the Depths of Loss
And with despair they twist and toss
And on the back in angels' light
His smile illuminates the night.
Crush
I see him in the hallway and I stare him down
But when he doesn't stare back, I walk away with a frown.
I try to get his attention anyway I can
I honestly confess, I want him as my man
I think about him all the time in a dreamy sort of way
Maybe he'll sweep me off my feet and take me far away
When I walk by him in the hallway, I hope that he'll say 'Hi'
But when he doesn't, I say 'maybe next time' with a sigh
Because I know when class is over, he'll be gone without a trace
I always think about him when in bed at half past nine
Maybe someday I'll get the guts to ask him to be mine.
Dream Lover
I look his way, wishing he would look mine,
Wondering, Dreaming what it would be like if only he would look my way.
I stare deep into his eyes and I seem to fall,
Yet no pain will come when I hit the bottom of this endless pit.
His eyes wander, just missing my own
Is me avoiding me?
Or does he just not see the love I hold for him, and only him
I see his smile, I hear his laughter;
Like the pealing of silver bells.
I smile with him, I laugh with him
Yet I am alone…
Without him.
Finally he looks my way,
He smiles, I return the greeting –
And he walks away.
My heart is weighted upon.
So this is what a broken heart feels like.
I wish for him to be mine always
But I know it is not possible…
Yet I cannot help but wonder what could be,
If just once he would look my way
Forever and Today
If only you could see
What's inside of me.
Maybe you'll understand
And you can take my hand.
Walks with me forever and today.
I'll listen to what you say
All your troubles and pain
From madness to insane
If you'll walk
Walk with me forever and today
Forever
If you had to make a choice,
Would you stay with me forever?
If forever was a day,
Would you hold me tight?
If forever was an hour,
Would you talk from your heart?
If forever was a minute,
Would you take my hand?
If forever was a second,
Would you be glad you were with me?
Have you ever looked into my eyes
Have you ever looked into my eyes?
If you have, have you seen true happiness in them?
Or did you see suppressed sadness?
You cannot see you're reflection in my eyes,
For they are already filled with pain and sorrow.
Have you ever looked into my eyes?
Did you have to look away again?
As the sorrow overpowered you?
Or did you keep looking,
Your own eyes reflecting my pain and sorrow.
Have you ever looked into my eyes?
Have you seen the beauty and love of life?
Or did you see my longing to die?
Do you sit and wonder why, or do you know?
Have you ever looked into my eyes?
If you have, you've seen my pain.
And you know why I feel anger and rage.
For you feel the way I do.
If you've ever looked into my eyes.
He didn't know I loved him
He didn't know I loved him.
He's gone now it's too late.
I once was full of love.
But now I'm full of hate.
I hate myself for thinking
that he could love me too.
I hate him for doing
All the flirting he used to do.
Id pictured us together.
A love that would be so strong.
And now I cant help thinking
that all those crazy thoughts were wrong.
For all of this I'm sorry.
I didn't make it clear.
I never ever told him
these feelings that were so dear.
Sometimes I sit and wonder
if he had those feelings too;
if the way I loved him
was the way he loved me too.
Him Again
In my mind I see him near
Every second his voice I hear
Yet I see he's fading fast
I know his words will never last
His warm embrace I long to feel
My poor heart I know he'll steal
Does he wonder, does he care
How can he know of my despair
Does he long to be with me
Will he share the dreams I see
What are these things written above
Why my friend, it's called love.
I Fell In Love with My Best Friend
You smiled and I waved
That was the day my heart caved
You were my best friend and still are
No one thought what we had would go very far
But now we're all grown up and you're still here
And even though you don't mean to you've caused me countless tears
I don't know where I'm going or where I've been
The only thing that's for certain is I'm in love with you again
Is there any end to the way I feel
This is the only pain I know you can't heal
Too scared to tell you it's true
Too afraid to say "I love you"
I keep it bottled inside
I know I promised you I'd never hide
You know something's wrong
It's been this way for far too long
You're my strong one
And when I'm old and gray and my years are nearly done
I'll look back and realize the mistake I've made
And cry for the awful price I've paid
A lifetime without you knowing
An eternity without my true emotions ever showing
I'll say it once and I'll say it now
I want to be with you Baby, I just don't know how.
In Love Again
I swore to myself it wouldn't happen again.
I vowed to myself that this was the end.
The end of this longing, this yearning so strong.
I said I was over you, but oh, I was wrong.
Now here it is, quite a while later,
And my love for you is now even greater.
I spend all my time thinking of you,
I'm in love with you again,
And there's nothing you can do.
INSPIRATIONS
To those of you who have pushed me, thank you.
Without you I would have fallen.
To those of you who laughed at me, thank you.
Without you I wouldn't have cried.
To those of you who just couldn't love me, thank you.
Without you I wouldn't have known real love.
To those of you who hurt my feelings, thank you.
Without you I wouldn't have felt them.
To those of you who left me lonely, thank you.
Without you I wouldn't have discovered myself.
But it is to those of you who thought I couldn't do it;
It is you I thank the most,
Because without you I wouldn't have tried.
Know I Love You
I can't help but to think of you
Laughing at all the things you do
Often wishing we could run away together
Very few people make me feel this way
Every minute apart seems like forever
You pick my spirit up more everyday
Then you drop it down when you have to go
Unless you stay with me til I die
Then I'll go, loving only you
Always with you I'll stay
Belonging only to the stars in your eyes
I just want you to know I love you…
Like the Ocean
Like the ocean's waves upon the shore
If comes and goes, taunting the shore
By night they drown it, by day they avoid it
This is my life, for I am the ocean's shore
When you go, you leave me yearning for more
By night, wrapped in a blacked of blissful sleep
Thoughts of you into my twisted mind do seep
By day, walking in a crowd all along
I look for you, for your essence to me is unknown
This is my life, how it must be
But maybe one day, you'll be with me
Love and Hate
If love is a dream,
then I hope not to wake.
If love is confusion,
then let my mind shake.
If love is the sun,
then let it burn on.
If love is a fairy tale,
do let me see.
And if love is a person,
please let it be me.
If hate is a fire,
then give me a pool.
If hate is a trick,
then I hope I'll outfool.
If hate is a rhythm,
then I'll break the beat.
And if hate is a hunger,
I just won't eat.
If hate is a story,
I'll close the book.
And if hate is a vision,
I just won't look.
If hate is a power,
I'm stronger than he.
And if hate is a person,
I pray it isn't me!
Magick Dance
I felt like a princess
Walking into the ballroom that night
My dress swooped and swirled about my feet
And the happiness in my eyes shined so bright
My date was perfectly charming
And the love I suddenly felt was quite alarming
But something magickal happened when we danced
And he was so much more to me by the night's end
Now I sit alone, hoping he cares
About me and the magick dance we shared.
My Guardian Angel
My guardian angel haunts my dreams and fills my head,
My guardian angel floats to the surface in my sea of thoughts.
My guardian angel watches over me, but does not see me,
My guardian angel listens to me, but cannot hear me,
My guardian angel loves me, but not the way I want him to,
I want my guardian angel to want me,
I do not want a guardian angel.
Now and Then
I sit and stare at these four walls
First time here, first time gone
I wish it were my name that you'd call
Is this going to go on for long?
Love is a game; you just have to play the hand you're dealt
I don't need it, I don't want it.
I don't want to feel those feelings I once felt.
I'd rather just watch and sit
The dark has taken over my heart
No light can get in, no light can get out
If you don't love, I think you're smart
The more you get hurt, the more you're heart gets cold
I've hurt so much; I can't hurt any more
I've loved so much; I can't love any more
Don't worry about me loving you
Because I won't
Don't worry about me loving you
Because I can't
I won't lie, I fear love
I won't deny, I'm afraid of love
Prove to me I need it,
Prove to me I want it
I might change my mind
But if you try, It'll be one hell of a fight.
At one time I thought I needed love
But I was wrong, I paid the price
I loved once; I will never love again
If you can make me love
I know you'll be there the rest of my life
Even though everyone's tried everyone's failed
I give everyone a chance
But I haven't ever given them a second glance
Many have tried
All have failed
So don't worry, I won't love you back.
Only my Heart to Blame
There's so much I've needed to say
Could I tell you about my dismay
About what hurts me inside
What burns deep into my scared soul
I haven't felt this way before
I've heard of how it feels
How it warms
How it hurts
How it lives
And how it dies
Your touch burns me
Sends shivers up my spine
What am I to do
There's so much I need to tell you
My world was darkness, then came a light
That light was you; so deep, so true
Can I go on like this
Oh the mindless pain
Pain like a knife
Slice after endless slice
I've come to a fork in the road
Should I say yes, or should I say no
It's not the time, but I still feel the same
I'm in love with you
And there's only my heart to blame.
Sisters so far apart
You may not have your life in order
You may be kind of broke
You may not always give me things
You may not have said I love you
Every morning I awoke
You may not see me very often
Since you live so far away
But I know you still love me
And you do every single day
You may have your own life
A separate one from me
You may not be the prettiest girl
Or the best you can be
But you'll always be my sister
The leader of the pack
You'll always be the oldest
And love for you is something
That I definitely do not lack
Sisters
We may not always talk
We may not always see eye to eye
We may not always see each other
But we are always sisters
I couldn't find you for such a long time
When I did, I cried
I missed you so much
You could never know
You are my sister
You will always be
No matter how far apart we are
Know that I love you
We may not do 'sisterly' things
We may not know everything about each other
But I know enough to know
I love you and always will
We may not be blood
But what does that matter?
We are sisters in the heart
That's all that counts
You may not have always been there for me
I may not have always been there for you
But we have a chance to become closer than ever
We have a chance to really be there for each other
I always wanted a sister
I knew I had one
I just didn't know where
I didn't know how to talk to her
But now I do
Now I can talk to you
You are my sister
Always and forever
Remember that I love you.
The Beast
It is night, the moon is out
Light shines down upon all that we see
Dark howling breaks the silence of darkness
A shadowy figure moves gracefully in the night
Be it man or be it beast,
It strikes fear into the heart of all those who look upon its ghastly nature
It is the nature of the beast
A call in the heart of every man
Everyone hears it; No one ignores it
It lives in the souls of us all
Thriving on our innermost fears
Feasting on our hate and depression
Evil are the ones who feed this abominable thing
I am one of those dark things
I feed the beast my soul
I feed the beast hate and depression
For I am evil
You are evil
We all are evil
The Misery of Me
For now I watch from a distance,
Wanting so much to be a part
Of the dream I see every day
That's tearing me apart.
For some reason,
I can't let you go.
I wait in silence,
So much wanting you to know.
My emotions are crushed daily,
As I fail to realize my dream
Of you and I together,
People seeing us as a team.
But for now I just stand on the sidelines,
Not able to play my own game,
And wishing over and over for you,
With only myself to blame.
The Mountain
One day I started to go upward
Climbing a mountain and looking forward.
At the sight I stand and stare
Eyes straining through the morning glare
I'll stand and stare down fate
Until the ledge cannot hold my weight
When it gives I lose a breath
As I fall to my death
That mountain was my life
Through all the pain and strife
That beautiful sight was you
And staring was all I could do.
The one that got away
Have you ever loved someone who never knew?
Have you ever wished you could turn back time, to bring them back to you?
Have you ever realized you love him, when it was too late?
Have you ever wished, hoped, and prayed he would someday feel the same?
Have you ever cried yourself to sleep night after night, because it hurt so much that he isn't yours?
Have you ever prayed to God to let you get over him, but deep down, you knew you could never truly let him go?
Have you ever dreamed of the day that he would be by your side, to hold and love, to just know he cares?
Have you ever had your heart ripped to shreds, and knew you could never love someone the way you love him?
Have you ever just wanted him to hold you deep in his arms, and never let go??
Have you ever been scared of what your life will be like when he's gone forever?
Have you ever thought no one could understand how empty and sad your life is, without him, your one true love?...And knew your heart would never be the same for you?
See, the thing is, that's all true, because that's the way I feel for you...
Thunderstorm of Love
I'm not sure on what to do,
Especially when I love you.
The lightning's crashing,
My love for you is thrashing.
I'm not sure on what to feel,
It's your heart I want to steal.
The rain is pouring,
My heart is soaring.
My feelings are as pure as a dove,
What is this baby?
Why it's a thunderstorm of Love.
Tonight
Standing in the moonlight
Walking on the beach
Sitting in the sand
With you and him hand in hand
You look at him
He kisses you
You start to wonder
If his emotions and feelings are true
You know you are falling in love
Is this true?
Is this right?
I guess it's ok,
At least tonight.
When You Are Sad
When you are sad,.............I will dry your
tears.
When you are scared,..........I will comfort
your fears.
When you are worried,.........I will give you
hope.
When you are confused,........I will help you
cope.
And when you are lost,........And can't see the
light.
I shall be your beacon........Shining ever so
bright
This is my oath...............I pledge till the
end.
Why you may ask?..............Because you're my
friend.
When Your Near Me
"It's not being in love that makes me happy. It's being in love with
YOU that makes me happy."
When you're near me,
Every wrong thing around me turns right.
Your love for me turns the darkness into light.
I love you.
Those three, simple, but meaningful words can make my heart melt.
To hear you say those words gives me a feeling I've never felt.
When you're feeling sad and blue,
Always remember that I will always be there for you.
Always remember that I love you more than words can say.
Even when you're gone, or I am away,
I will always love you.
Wishing For You
As I sit here, mysteriously high
Thoughts of you constantly run past
I think of you, but you're gone so I sigh
Thinking one night I'll have you at last
Wanting to take you in my arms forever
Never turning my head to look away
Never leaving your loving arms ever
To love honor and obey
Oh got I want you baby
I can't be sane without you
I'm going to go crazy…maybe
Oh baby, I love you.
Without You
You don't know me, but I know you
You don't notice me, but I notice you
You don't want me, but I want you.
How long are we going to keep up this dark masquerade?
How long are we going to deny our fate?
How long until you want me?
How long until you need me?
I try my best to keep my emotions hidden
Wanting time and time again to tell you
Fear of rejection
Fear of friends
Fear of everything I hold so dear
Fear of you
I hold you so close to my heart
I hold you so sacred in my soul
I tell you my feelings
I pour out my life to you
You listen
You sympathize
You are a friend
But what about me?
Don't I need more than a friend?
Don't I deserve the best?
Why can't I have you?
Why do I want you?
I need you so bad
Please tell me why
You have all the answers
You are a ghost in my life
You are a presence
So close yet so far
We laugh, we joke, and we play
We can talk about anything
We talk about everything
I fear you
I fear me
I fear pain
I fear love
It tears me up inside to see you
It frightens me when I don't
I don't know how long I can keep this up
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know how I can live…
Without you.
You Are Everything to Me
Dear lord please guide me
for my heart am full of love,
So much love...
And yet, I know that we
Can't live by love alone,
So I call on you,
Because you know my mind
And my heart
Give me please, everything I need
To love him...
And give me everything I must have
To keep him...
He is everything to me.
Words are just not enough,
I mean I'm not sure if
I'm doing everything I can
To make him understand that
Our love is everlasting
I have to know that I'm doing
Everything that I should do,
That I am everything I should be,
You know he's everything to me
Please strengthen me with,
Wisdom, vision, heart, and soul,
Truth and understanding.
He's everything,
He's everything to me,
My day
My night
My joy
My love
My life
He's everything to me,
HE IS MY VALENTINE.
