If Not, For You

This heart, it hurts
from where it has been
Hard to stay strong
will not feel that pain again.

I do not lose hope
where ever you are
I am right here waiting
for you, my shining star.

The star which will grant
my every wish or whim
Flowing together in lover's notion
we shall swim.

Swimming this great divide
our hearts are entwined
Binding us by fate
our love designed.

An angel, may you be
the answer, when I pray
If you could hear
what this heart can say.

It would be broken
no way to make anew
would never show longing...
if not, for you.
============================
Dedication: This goes out to the woman who has my rib. I hope this piece finds its way
to you. Bless you always in every day, know that I will not quit seeking for your heart
and love. Blessed be and thank you all who read and comment this. I hope you all enjoy.

Heart Like Mine

This heart has been broken,
tattered and torn
Not so long after
that I was born.

Searching for love
that appeared in dreams
Burning like the sun
and it's radiant beams.

I've been searching
for so many years
Looking for the woman
who can define my tears.

A woman who will adore me
and all that I am
Not someone who will play
putting on a sham.

I want someone to love
and honor for life
Someone who will someday
Be my loving wife.

Someone to honor
and cherish and all
That is the essence
in which I fall.

I'm not an act
and won't pretend
I could be much better
than the truest friend.

A woman who's bright
and together we shine
Is there anyone out there
with a heart like mine?

My Love For You

It grows stronger
each moment that passes
It goes down easy
smoother than molasses.

It is much stronger
than iron or steel
Almost invincible
the way we feel.

You make me feel
deeper than I've done
There is no doubt
you are "the one".

You were made for me
in all that you do
Nothing can defeat
my love for you.

My Truest Vessel

Trapped, is the love
flowing in my heart
If you chose me
that would be smart.

I would hold you
honor and obey
Bringing you happiness
which would stay.

My hopes lie within
this lonely soul
Having much love to give
beyond all control.

Held captive by the pain
many put me through
Still, I wait for someone
who will be true.

In hopes for the day
together we nestle
This heart it shall remain
my truest vessel.

You'Re Mine

I wished I could give you
the moon and stars above
This is out of my reach but,
for you, I give my love.

I would climb the highest mountain
and swim the widest sea
I would sacrifice my all
for you, my destiny.

When I'm with you
right by your side
I know that with you
there's no reason to hide.

Words could never
come close to define
My life is so blessed
because you're mine.
