Best Lovemay Poems
You may not wear glass slippers
Or even wear a crown
You have no magic pumpkin
Or a fancy ballroom gown
But you're still my Cinderella
A princess in my eyes
I'll be your knight in shining armor
And you, my noble prize
I may not be Prince Charming
With a kingdom of my own
I don't wear those fancy clothes
Or sit on some jeweled throne
We're gonna see some bad times
And we'll probably even fight
This may not be some fairytale
That always turns out right
It's as real as we can make it
No reason for pretending
I will be your morning kiss
And you, my happy ending
I've got enough paper to build a new tree
maybe i can get some kind of reward
I'm doing it all to make you happy
And maybe this will move things foward
Seeing as the drawer is stuck
And I'm being pushed around like a hockey puck
I see no reason to leave you behind
With these things I have no luck
It seems your sun's been put out
By the water coming out of my spout
I guess we'll just have to wait
Until I have another drought
This may take a long while
For i've got enough to go round
if i pass it out then maybe you'll smile
But then your friends will drown
This may cause you to look down upon me
Which you already do
But I'vegot enough paperto build a new tree
And I'd do it for you

New beginnings smiled from across the room
Big brown eyes melted mine as I thought
...this cannot be real!...
Butterflies performed ballet in my stomach
Her voice danced like wind chimes in my mind
Sleeping violins came alive and
filled my ears and my heart with song
I’d been deaf for far too long
We touched hands
Hearts pumped faster faster faster
Heaven and freedom became ours
for the moment in this finger embrace
Effortless conversation
A meeting of minds, sometimes intense
Mostly light hearted
Sprinkled with sparkling happiness
Lips pressed together in a goodbye
as innocent as our souls
A gentle reminder of vulnerability and
hope for what may come, for what may be
Rain fell from the sky like an angel’s blessing
streaming our faces in the day’s dusk
I wished to dance my way home on the raindrops,
lingering in her kiss
She never wanted a big wedding
The thought of so many people looking
Made her uncomfortable
She thought if she ever married again
That it should be small, quiet
That the focus should be
On the man she loved.
She wouldn't wear a gown
But something befitting the season
She would stand before a minister
Take the usual vows
Then, looking deeply into her beloved's eyes,
Recite something she had written
About his virtues and what she admired about him
About how she would always stand beside him
About how she would love to listen to him
For she always loved what he had to say.
Then they may play music
And they may dance
Well, if she ever married again...
I am woken by your cries in the night
I mount my steed and prepare to take flight
Tell me of the dragons that I may fight
To rid you of pain and restore your sight
Let down your hair from your prison towers
That I may place you amongst the flowers
And soothe your worries in April’s showers
Restoring your strength with all my powers
I will mend your heart and banish distress
And, with love and care, will make you hurt less
Relax and be touched by my mind’s caress
And let me serve you, my precious princess
I may not ride a horse, or dress in white
But I promise I’ll always be your knight ~
You may be facing a life uncertain.
Each day may be one of suffering and pain,
Yet you can bear it,
As long as you share it
With one you can trust to help take the strain.
Life is a challenge so you must meet it,
Even though scared of what it might do.
But you can face it,
As long as you place it
In the hands of someone whose heart is for you.
You're only human,feeling weak and defenceless,
Yet this is something you can rise above.
You will get through it.
With HIS power you can do it,
For burdens are made easier when carried with LOVE.
Stone upon the water front/
Next to the cashmere pillow,
The pier near the gallow shore/
A man began to speak,
Within this land there shall be no way out accept I tax,
This gravitational pull may bring some down,
Yet if you stay and listen very carefully/
You will live through this time and be very happy !
Many of you have become lazy in the manner of laws,
A decree will be summoned to let us know/
The waiting may be hard to comprehend,
Yet within time you can grow to depend/
The fat of the land,
Let this man take you by the hand/
There can be no further excuses or escape,
The way will depend upon the hearer's !
Love is like a juicy, apple,
for those of us,
who wish to dapple,
Lucious, fresh and red,
first your dating,
then you wed,
sometimes it can get quite sour tasting,
and you wonder,
the time your wasting,
but mostly crisp and sweet,
though love,
I's rarely ever neat,
you may divide it into slices,
times that are good,
and those times in crisis,
but don't pick thatt poisen apple,
from that apple tree,
for may may deeply regret,
your future destiney.
I fell upon a dreadlocked man, with wood he made, with my heart he ran
For never before have i known of such inspiring thought and tempting touch
So to the forest we made our way, with plans of happy, joyful play
The trees did shelter to a degree, but not enough to protect me
As we sat faces aglow, around the fire his head hung low
For what he said he meant no harm, to save me from his free-spirited charm
You may think that denotes the end, for the woodland two that would depend
But something quite wonderful happened that night, with flickering flames and souls alight
Just like a butterfly held too tight will die, we set it free and watched it fly
It landed thankfully on a tree representing what may be
Colour, beauty, dancing wings, our friendship began cut loose of strings
I found a friend and will always be, there for him as he is for me
There's a time that comes every now and then,
When one must sit and shut tight both eyes,
To hold back a deluge of welling tears,
To maintain that happy workplace disguise.
More often than not we curse such changes
That strike the core of our comfort zone,
And usurp our minds of its security
To leave us speechless and very much alone.
But despite these feelings that one may bare
It is a fact that life is exactly that:
A destined journey of constant changes
That can switch course at the drop of a hat.
No matter how hard it may slap one's face
With a force never before known to be,
This reality of your sure departure still seems
Like a daydream fantasy.
In the lest of composure one can
Manage a pair of arms separate with much caution,
But in the manner of a bird from a nest,
Or an eager child into a winter snow,
There are times when utmost love can be shown
In the simple action of letting go.
I.
A ring imbued with love
Is the gift we both have
Circle and boundless
Unharmed by ages
That may our love
Retain the passion
we have always had
Keep the flame
Burning in our heart
Like the ring’s
Undying gleam
May the golden ring’s
Unscathed gleam
Be an inspiration
To the usual
Fleeting feelings
II.
Let us trek together
In the path of time
Along the way
It may lacerate
Our ephemeral form
But our bond’s strength
Made out of firm
thread of our love
And woven
By our passion and faith
Will remain unstirred
And tie forever in our hearts
As we trudge our way
To eternal lands
Oh the places we won't go,
like post dated postcards
with fictional photographs of you and I
laughing lovers caught up in this
moment
now mourn this trysts annulment
The fading hue of I to you
crashing closer to memory
are the full blown passion ploys
and blissful near misses
...the only places I may recall you fondly
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a never
you gazed dreamy
laughed freely
kissed deeply
and made love sweetly
...no not sweetly, but dirty discreetly
the pure erotic world all yours
behind closed doors
engrossed in post-coital
pillow reminiscing
Moving past the altitude
of fickle courting, began the rouse
singing blandly rehearsed tunes
to retreating corners licking wounds
For confrontation is where you thrive
while in misplaced ire my interest dies
beauty morphs horrid in this beholders eyes
as your idiocyncrasies I now despise
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I may think this time was lost
but I say it's worth noting,
my pen has always moved the most
between the loving and the loathing...
**Inspired by John Heck's "Gauntlet" contest!!
so i se you've open my heart
thanks for asking permission first
you'll have to excuse the mess
i wasnt expecting company right now
now that you're here, yuou may as well stay
go ahead and make yourself comfortable
good luck getting through all the junk
most of this stuff is pretty old
someday i'll get rid of things
i'll probably keep some in storage too
its gonna be awhile till i'm ready for all that though
coming here may have been a mistake
you could wind up regretting it
i never asked for any of it in the first place
its not my fault it isnt perfect
maybe it'll work out for the best
anything is possible i suppose
please be real careful in here though
i dont want anything else getting broken
most of its fragile so handle with care
if you ever do decide to leave for any reason
i'd appreciate you letting me know i can lock the door behind you
it was left wide open when the last one moved out
you were able to easily sneak in without me even noticing
i definately cant let that happen again
once more would likely end up killing me
if it reaches that point, it could mean that
searching for love is just not worth it after all
not worth risking my sanity
and the abuse to my soul
I made mistakes from the very start,
And now I must pay for those, with damage to my heart
Stupid fantasies led me to believe you were 'the one'
I really want you to make some girl happy,
But now I know,
She's not me
I didn't realize how much this would hurt me,
I guess I cared more than I knew
And I may have hurt you too
And all is forgiven.
In that aspect, I want to start fresh and new
but I know it won't really be the same,
Behind the fear and charade
I'm trying hard not to doubt you
With God I can trust
I just hope and pray you're feeling the same way,
Oh you must!
Sometimes I get caught back up in wishing it wasn't so,
But that's just petty infatuating, boy would I know!
I think I've recently matured in our friendship
And now I'm fairly certain that's all it will ever be
but still at times I may fall back,
And I then have regrets about letting you go
But I can't go through that again, I won't do it to myself
So I will fade back into the shadows
Someday my prince will come, and your princess too
But anymore I just don't think we are the missing,
Matching
Pieces of the other's puzzle
I don't want to be wrong on this,
Because I don't want to go back
For I'm not sure I could step out on that limb of trusting you again
Oh, how so much can change in a week, a day
But even still
In the blink of an eye
I don't know if ignorance really is bliss?
Not if your feelings and heart are involved for sure
For you can fall into an unhealthy cycle
Of 'fairytale dreams' and 'happily ever afters'
I know I'll always miss you with a piece of my heart
And from me, your memory will never depart
You will always be special to me
In a way others don't understand,
But that ache will fade some
I'll move on,
And I will then be free to dream again
L.I.F.E.=Living in Faith Everyday
The climb may take a while
But the view is beautiful
...There is always going to be a tough battle
The Battle may be one that
We don't want to face
But don't give up
Keep trying.
Just keep believing
Get yourself through the day
Yes life can be thought of as a mountain
You can move mountains
And every battle
That faces us
Always be Patient and Enjoy
The experience you create
Because its all about the climb
And remember it may take a while
But the view is beautiful..
