So many like me,but to very few i return the feeling
My heart wishes to love,my mind wishes to play the game
Let's see who can really feel for you,but will you feel back or turn away
can i let myself love somebody knowing i can and will get hurt
should i just hurt them first because i can't be broken
If my hearts already shattered.
My soul needs affection and in my mind it has that.
Me myself and I.
My pieced together heart on the other hand is stuck between fear and love.
WHAT HAVE I DONE I DESTROYED MY LIFE
LIED TO MY KIDS HURT MY WIFE
HOW COULD I THINK I WAS IN LOVE WHEN IT WAS ONLY LUST
OH LORD HELP ME WILL I EVER REGAIN MY WIFE TRUST
I,M SORRY IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE
I WAITED TO LONG MY HEART IS TORE
PLEASE TAKE ME BACK I WANT DO IT NO MORE
ONE LAST CHANCE IS ALL I ASK FOR
MY HEART IS ACHING MY TEARS JUST POOR
I BEG OF YOU MY SWEET WIFE
LOSING YOU FEELS WORSE THAN BEING CUT WITH A KNIFE
CHEATING WILL BE THE LAST THING I WILL EVER DO
I WILL FOCUS ON OUR FAMILY AND GIVE ALL MY LOVE TO YOU
I WILL CHERISH EVERY MOMENT AND EMBRACE EVERY SMILE
TAKE THAT WALK BACK DOWN THAT AILE
AND LOVE YOU THE WAY I NO I CAN
AND SHOW YOU THE MEANING OF A REAL MAN
My Life : FOREVER
My LOVE : ETERNAL
My Tears : BLESSINGS
My LOVE : IMMORTAL
My Fears : RELINQUISHED
My HEART : YOURS
My Eyes : See YOU
My Ears : Hear YOU
My Lips : Taste YOU
My Hands : Caress YOU
My Breath : Inhales YOU
My HEART : YOURS

MY LOVE , FOREVER
November 4 , 1951
My Dearest Only Beloved Lenore
My Love for you is “Forevermore”
My Heart beats for YOU, as none before
The LOVE I feel just holding YOUR HAND
I shout of my LOVE Throughout, the LAND
Flowing AUBERN hair : below Your behind
The Jade-Emerald Light reflecting in Your Eyes
One could see This Light ; Although : “ Blind “
Eternally : LOVE in my Heart Belongs to YOU
You bought me flowers today
Roses of pink and red
Included was a heart shaped card
And this is what it said
I cant live my life without
Having you by my side
Although I seldom tell you so
You are the reason why
I work so hard
I try my best
I think of you before I rest
With you is where my heart lies
How I cherish you
My lovely wife
Must I , FOREVER, swim amongst the “ DEATH “ in the River , Where “ FOREVER “ is Just a
DREAM
The AGONY is beyond what my minute “ HEART “ can accept , The Torment “SHINES“ in a
Moonbeam
“DO not“ Watch this Moonbeam streaking across the Sky : Collecting Pieces of “Forever’s”
Broken Heart
“Quilting - the Perfect “ LOVING HEART “ “Feeding it to the Devil Who savagely Rips and
Tears it Apart
Author’s Note : Are YOU Bored : Yet! I hope not as there could be 3 or 4 more parts to this
SHOULD I ?
LOVE : FOREVER , dwells in Her Heart
Her Heart beating only for “ Ron “
How long ago did this “ LOVE “ Start
She is His Queen, He is Her “ Don “
Look in Her eyes; What do you see?
LOVE : FOREVER , Dwells in Her Heart
EVERLASTING : ETERNITY
Here on Earth is only the Start
Together, FOREVER, ALWAYS
Walking Heaven and Earth’s Hallways
LOVE : FOREVER , dwells in Her Heart
LOVE : FOREVER , dwells in His Heart
Sincerely believe in “ I DO “
A Loving Heart inside a Heart
Eternity : for ME and YOU
LOVE : FOREVER, dwells in Her Heart
Dedicated to Mr. and Mrs. : SWEETHEARTS of POETRYSOUP
“ LINDA-MARIE “ and HER FOREVER : “ RON “
How Blessed is she, to be with Thee
My only Prayer, she waits for me
With clouds in the sky, I sit and Cry
Why so young, did she have to die?
My Broken Heart has LOVE denied
I remember her kiss, A Heavenly Bliss
The love in her eyes, I intensely miss
I reminisce of Forever LOVE, so pure
Her Heart of gold, shall always endure
A Broken Heart, Her LOVE is the cure
Softly singing, are the Bagpipes and Fife
In Honor of my Dearest Most Beloved Wife
Living the joyful fulfillment of Eternal Life
FOREVER and ALWAYS I whisper my LOVE
Until We Entwine again , in HEAVEN Above

Very Wise 9
I’m just a man with a broken heart trying to show love
To the woman who I lost and is now in the heaven above
I think back when we met we shared a kiss
Now the days go by I think of my wife who I terribly miss
Life seems so very unfair
I was older but it’s my wife who is not here
All the years we were married I gave her all that I could
I gave her all my love and my heart the way a husband should
When special days and some holidays come near
It hurts more on these days that my wife and I no longer share
I wish I could remember everything from my past
I would burn my wife in my mind so it all would last
Over and over as the days go by
I try to get by with out a cry
Joey was my wife and now she is gone
I am finding my days so very hard to move on
On our wedding day some words I had said
I promised to always love her and with this ring I thee wed
We have two girls Barbara and Patricia are their names
Also their is our son his name is James
My wife was a tall and slender blonde with blue eyes
She loved me and I guess she was very wise

My wife was a tall and slender blonde with blue eyes
She loved me and I guess she was very wise
Because of the person you are
My heart shall rest upon a star
Of the beauty that my eyes see
There is a dream in front of me
Of this lady that I adore
Another dream I can explore
Regardless of what I may be
So lucky am I to have thee
My heart it is a ball of flame
Burning bright the light of your name
Sweetheart you know my heart is true
I’m so proud to be bound by you
Bound by you and the arms of fate
Lets close the doors and lock the gate
Find that place only we can be
Share the dream only we can see
Let us let the world pass us by
Spread our wings and caress the sky
Sail right through a billowy cloud
As our song is sung clear and loud
I’m but a vessel lost at sea
Sailing your heart eternally
My friend, wife and child’s mother
For me there could be no other
Why is my course forever true?
I gave my heart and soul to you
For Matt's contest
I remember the day so very clear.
I was alone for so very long.
Emptyness was my heart untill
you were here.
A dark rose that shed light.
A perfect answer.
To a question unknown from spite.
We found soliace in arms covered in emotional
scars.
You lost in gloom.
I from the bars.
I write to you from the depths of my heart.
That are time is eternal.
Eventhough in this moment we are apart.
That message in a bottle will always read the same.
Julia Elizabeth Loveless.
You have taken my heart now I ask
will you take my name.
A majic wand is this pen in my hand
I recreate Your Beauty, Your life: You
Forever, always by my side You stand
My Heartbeat, My Existence, my Love; You
My Poetry draws a picture of You
My Dearest only most beloved, Lenore
My Heart entwines With Yours for Evermore
Lenore - 1971 the wine
I obsess for, the wine I drink and dream
Of You, my moonlitnight; morning sunshine
I wake to You : the warmth of a sunbeam
I hear Your whispers down the mountain stream
I see Your face in the clouds ; silken white
Your green eyes, twinkle and wink, each twilight
LENORE, I Love You witheach breath I take
I carry You in my Heart everyday
The Love we knew (know)eases the Heartache
You are my artistry at work or play
To be with You ALWAYS is all I pray
I live for the day, I shall see Your face
As One with GOD; We Forever Embrace
Inspired By Trudy Diane Rider"s Contest Hopelessly Devoted
Diagnosed a while ago
my heart gets heavier and my breath gets shorter.
Thoughts of the past come and go
as my mind tries to go forward.
This is a disease of the heart mind and body.
As my body grows weaker everyday.
If only it could go back to what is was supposed to be
It would be ok.
Signs were there but you never want to see them.
denial is the norm and time makes it harder.
Once full of life and now it has grown dim.
Tears is where it was filled with laughter.
Regret, happiness, pain, revenge all race through the mind.
But the heart always have one thing that it understands.
If only God gives me just one more time.
I can make sure i can meet all of the demands.
I was left behind by my wife on the 25 of July
God please let this be the final plan.
This is the written eulogy of my marriage
but is it all that can be?
Sometimes at evening when the sun goes down
I light a little candle all ready for love
I am older than Luther, soul of soul unbound
I bridge desire with Bee Gees, and move
To your ears to whisper in hibiscus tones
Anticipating your wet and sweet delicious moans.
But you have the day still wired to your soul
Blisters and bruises from Monday’s blues
You sigh misshaped by the world’s callous mould
You need tenderness without the old cues
Silent massage of toes, and a listening ear
To the litany of woes wrinkling your heart with care.
I say softly to our son, your mother, child, is weary
She is human too … not just here to serve
Our needs … milk of our existence bright or dreary
Prattling visions of corrections on the nerve
Help me to do, what she alone so oft has done
Bring her to a state crowned in golden glows of sun.
O mother, woman, queen, eternal wife, behold
My soul is laid down as carpet for your feet
My heart the citadel replenishing love and gold
Defending your virtue from rough rain and sleet
I come with thoughts of kindness and the thrift
Of all my soul’s domain as your treasure and gift.
