The 8th Wonder

The warm glow of the sunset
The sweet smell of rain
A rainbow after a storm
The colours of autumn
The intricacies of a snowflake 
The smell of a rose 
The patterns on a butterfly
Wonders which question 
if God exists
The look in her eyes 
there is where I see 
without question 
of the wonders
where He exists

Always

As always
The best thing i can i say
Will always be left unsaid 
For words cannot capture these feelings felt

But everyday i try my best
To understand this sweet embrace 
That moves my soul and makes me crave
The warmth of the one i love

I do not need to explain 
Because my heart understands 
That when you take me by the hand
A world of wonder awaits

And with such mystery lies
And intrigue that is undefined 
Because this journey of you and i
Has no destination ahead

But where will this road take us?
One of us is bound to ask
The one who got too attached 
Wants a love without a doubt

I do not know what to say
I can only say "Stay"
All i know is i want you
The rest is up to chance

The moment is we all have
So let us make every kiss last 
And hope love reveals the path
That you and i aren’t
Meant to take

Music of the Heart

The beating of my heart
as you lay on my chest
Wrapped up in each other 
Body and Soul
A seed planted in my heart
and true love grew
Arms wrapped around your body
Us Two becoming One
I marvel at the Love we share
A wonder unmatched 
Almost like a murmur of music
Our Souls dancing to the music
Played on our heartstrings

No Tears

Even a single drop, a tear
is my greatest fear.
Just a way to express the anguish 
my heart holds ,
for the words written are better 
than being spoken 
for they contain the essence 
of time behind the thought
You’re always by my side
even though I can’t hold you
Real Love never fades
It burns like the sun
Although you are far away
Love holds us close
To have you by my side
Always longing for more,
and have you feel the same
when that time comes
I'll be in total bliss,
For no longer will I wait 
For that one first kiss
The storm always passes.
It won't last forever.
The rain always stops 
gives way to good weather.
The brightest and warmest of days 
still to come.
Please wait for the sun.
The sunshine will come.
My love, I have given you my heart
revealed the depths of my soul
Give me your hand 
And I’ll never let go

Forever Plus One Day

A second
A minute
A hour
Time only matters
when time needs to pass
Time flies by 
when we want a moment to last 
“I love you”
Seconds to say three words
that will last a lifetime 
Eternity isn’t long enough
to spend with you
Maybe Forever times two?

Closer

Stars shine brightly 
in the night skies
But cannot compare
to the brightness in her eyes
They say beauty fades
but from her it eternally radiates 
I’ve seen incredible sunsets
but cannot compare to when our eyes met
These are just words
thought up in a mind 
but held close to my heart
written in verses 
help us feel like we’re not apart

Her Eyes

Those Eyes!…
Her Eyes!
Her Heart shines 
through those Eyes
Her Soul burns 
through those Eyes
Her Smile says
A thousand words
Her Eyes tell me 
infinite more!
I get lost
in those Eyes
Then guided safely 
by the beacon
of her Soul
Warmed for Eternity 
by Her Heart

Love Beacon

Her eyes
Like the beacon to her soul
they guide me home
Home is where the heart is
As the owner of my heart
to be with her is home

Belle Eyes

Those Eyes!…
Her Eyes!
Her Heart shines 
through those Eyes
Her Soul burns 
through those Eyes
Her Smile says
A thousand words
Her Eyes tell me 
infinite more!
I get lost
in those Eyes
Then guided safely 
by the beacon
of her Soul
Warmed for Eternity 
by Her Heart

Beauty

The beauty of a woman is found In her Strength, Grace and Love
Not in the clothes she wears, the curves of her figure
or the way she combs her hair. 
The beauty of a woman
is found in her eyes,
the pathway to her Heart
The place where
Love resides
