As much as I love to whine and moan
Forever cursing the day I was born.
It must said and I can't deny
Its really one big lie.
If I feel lonely and start to feel pain
I just go outside, go outside and kiss the rain.
truth it is when I say "its better to have loved and lost"
Only my pride it did cost.
Our souls are bound so she's always near
With her in my heart I have nothing to fear.
Side by side
Our souls you'll find.
Smiling, laughing and protecting each other
How could I ever love another?
The one thing that I would adore
Is to hold her, just once more.
To see that smile and those beautiful brown eyes
The only ones to see through my lies.
Tho apart we have have drifted
My love for you has not shifted.
I just wanted to tell you my friend
I will be here until the end.
So go baby girl, go and live free
Just remember that I love you Emma B
I once knew a lady who changed my life,
Before I knew her I was lonely and bitter,
We shared something special our love was rife,
She made me feel like an MLB home run hitter,
That special lady she stole my heart,
She was like an Indian Princess in days of yore,
Her face like the Mona Lisa a real work of art,
She will be spoken of like Helen of Troy from lore,
Hair like raven feathers Silky and soft,
Her eyes like sunlight through and Orcadian Malt,
When I laid eyes upon her my spirit leapt aloft,
And her perfect beauty to the heavens I did exalt,
So a phrase over used its better to have loved and lost,
Because love conquers all no matter the cost
My love, my love,
You are my love,
I could never push you away,
I could never turn you away,
I could never break your heart,
I could never tell you a lie.
If another person came my way,
I’d turn them away and say I was with you,
You have healed my broken heart,
You are truly the love of my life.
Death envies your existence,
For he knows that you are an immortal being,
You are perfections worst nightmare,
Models wish they could be you, and outcast in school look up to you.
You sweat beauty, and you exhale perfection.
You are the one that I have been waiting my whole life for,
You are the one that I dream about,
I would harness the stars for you if you asked,
And bring them down so that you could make a wish,
With you in my life I have a purpose to live,
With you in my heart it has a reason to beat.
If there was ever a problem that I needed help with,
You were always there to find the answer with me,
If you ever were feeling less than perfect,
I would be there to make sure you knew you are.
People say its better to have loved and lost,
Than to never have loved at all,
But I never have to worry about not being loved,
You are my love.
Tears stream down my checks
They pool at my feet
Look at all the pain you caused
You caused by leaving
Leaving and never looking back
I look back on a time
A time when you meant everything
A time when I saw love in your eyes
But now I never even see you
They say its better to have loved and lost
But they never loved and lost you
You showed me that love exists
But the knowledge burns now
Burns because you're gone now and won't return
Burns because there's no one left to show me love
Why should they show me love
There's nothing left to love
Because I've now drowned in my tears
My sadness caused my death
And it was all because of you
A wise man once said its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at
all
What makes me wonder constantly though, is whether he had ever loved anyone
at all!
When people say that life is so short, make the best of it
Do they ever feel bored or dreary or just get totally miffed?
How can one say life is a journey enjoy the ride
When sometimes we feel the need to hide!
Why do they say we need to stop and smell the roses
When I tried it ants went up my tender noses!
Confusious said take one day at a time
Is it possible to skip a day or a while?
I don't believe in this women's lib
I feel the need to be treated like a queen!
I think our constitution is just a big fib
And true freedom will only happen in our dream!
Rest easy dear sage for these thoughts I have penned
Are just my way of making amends!
