Two months ago but time matters not
For this is a 'forever' affair
The word 'affair' doesn't seem right either
A much deeper love we've declared
You returned to me from out of the mist
A vision of love and beauty
Not in a million years could I have imagined
Your return has aroused me truly
Seems like it's out of dime store novel
Nothing I could've imagined
This over the top ecstatic feeling of pure love
Is like some trance I'm in
So a very Happy Two Month Anniversary
There's forever more to come
Seems like it's happening for the first time
A new one has just begun
This was written many years ago
No. Not in a million years.
I shall never charge God foolishly.
If I did, I would surely be the fool.
As was the faithful Abraham, I am
Indeed convinced that the God of all
The earth will be righteous in all His ways.
I am breathless thinking of your sighs,
Your sweet whispers with twinkling eyes
No way your smile I could ever forget,
That special day when first we met.
You left me breathless hearing you say
That we were meant to meet that day,
Then, darling, I knew I would never regret
That special day when first we met.
Breathless reliving the golden years--
Yes, reliving the laughter and the tears
The first words you spoke I’ll never forget
That special day when first we met.
Not in a million years could I ever forget
That special day when first we met.

Did you say I can do it?
Not
Not in a million years
Well I am going to show you
who is in charge
Not for you only
But for million ones out there
Time to sit back and watch
with repentance
I don't make things for no reason
Just like I don't do things without reason
Time to know The One who is above you
besides you and before you
I don't walk backward
And you shouldn't either
Time to move on
Get with the program
It is on
One... two...
I am broken,
in full despair,
and yet she laughs has not to care.
I cannot help but feel I've wronged,
in such a dismal stay.
My hands they shake,
my eyes they tear,
I tremble full of fear.
I never thought it would end this way,
not in a million years.
I thought our love was innocent,
I know now I'm the fool.
To me it just does not make sense,
how could she be so cruel?
I never ever will again,
seek love from just another.
I'll seek death has death begins,
By love my breath be smothered.
Your brown eyes ill never forget......
All your mistakes ill forgive...
There's never enough said....
Even down to your last breath.....
Faith goes long ways....
So Ive been told....
The way are bound has held.....
The way the the hand was dealt.....
I couldn't say how sorry i am,not in a million years....
Everything that was left unsaid.......
All the times i said i wish you were died....
Id take that all back!
Please understand i forgive you.......
I love you mom!!!!!!!
Forever and for always
Oh what a mistake I have made,
Traveled so far to end up this way.
Not in a million years would I have guessed,
That this idea was truly not one of my best.
Never had known things had changed so much,
We for sure had fallen so far out of touch.
So many different do's , don't , and bewares,
Actually has left me absolutely scared.
What a fool I was to ever believe,
That she would ever be in love with me.
At my age you would think I know better,
You can trust this will be remembered forever.
Oh what a terrible mistake I have made,
Wanting all these memories to just fade away.

What's going on with me I don't even know,
Things I deal with now is a never-ending joke,
It's like playing a game where I'm the chaser,
But in the end I get shot in the heart by a laser.
For some reason though I play again and again,
Hoping someday or one day I will win,
But let's get real cause this isn't a TV show,
This is reality getting slammed by the doh' (door).
Yet the question for me is why do I play,
When I'm the one getting hurt while others enjoy their day,
Know that these are my feelings I'm going to let out,
So you can cry or scream cause baby I'm a shout!
No more drama, no more tears,
Not by people I love, not in a million years,
Just like my signature it will forever say;
I want to spread my wings and fly away.
To a place with no lies no drama no games,
But no this is earth and its peace doesn't change,
& I'm not one to play games I'm faithful to thee,
Hell I even apologize when the blame isn't on me.
I let myself get hurt and it brings me low,
Cause my heart is too stubborn to let go,
I wish I was a kid with little or no pain,
But as I get older... I know things will never be the same...
We said goodbye two years ago today -
I'll never forget the way I felt that day.
I couldn't breathe when the door closed between us
And your taillights dimmed as you drove away.
I never thought i'd breathe the same again,
As pain took away all my wind -
And i stood there deflated and broken
Refusing to accept the bitter end.
It happened on my best friend's wedding day.
I'll never understand why you did it that way -
I had visions of our wedding as I was standing there
But you ruined that for me and left my heart betrayed.
I never thought i'd get over it, not in a million years.
I cried what seemed a river's worh of tears.
I mourned for you like someone mourns the dead -
It was the realization of all my fears.
But once the salt left my wounds, I realized I was free,
Free from all the emotional torture you gave me.
Free from wondering where you were -
Free from the fragile little girl you made me be.
And I never looked back once you were gone.
I learned how hurt can make you strong,
I learned what a real man should be.
And with that, my old dear lover, so long.
The sun sails along
So does the needle
Meninges they burn
Figuring out the riddles
Coals into the diamond turns
Not in a million years
Inside a volcanic eruption burns
Igniting all the fears
Slowly consuming the dull mind
It kills away your brain
Halting the way you cram
That’s the way its comes my friend
The scary thing you call exam
I can feel the heat!
I know that the flame…
Still shines brightly within my beating heart!
I can feel the power!
I know that my strength…
Comes from my soul, making me stronger!
I can never lose if I have you!
You are the flame that I need!
With these burning fists, I shall never see defeat
Not with the promise that I made to you
I shall come out victorious! You’ll see, my dear
And right afterwards, I’ll take your hand…
I can feel the heat!
For I know that the…
Inferno blazes in my heart and can’t be put out!
I can feel the power!
For I know that it…
Emanates from my soul because of you!
I can never lose if I have you!
You’re the fire and passion within me!
With these burning fists, I feel that I won’t lose
Not in a million years and I will see to that
I will be the victorious one! Keep your eyes on me
Then soon, we shall be together forever…
I can never lose if I have you!
You are the flame that I need!
With these burning fists, I shall never see defeat
Not with the promise that I made to you
I shall come out victorious! You’ll see, my dear
And right afterwards, I’ll take your hand…
I never thought that
You'd make me feel this way
I know you have to go
But I you could stay
I never thought
Not in a million years
That you could so easily
Bring me to tears
I hate what you're doing
But I love how it feels
Your kind of heartbreak
Is the kind that never heals
I wish I could make you
Leave me alone
But your touch could soften
A heart made of stone
You're my drug of choice
And I need a fix tonight
This need is too strong
For me alone to fight
