Power Brevity

What we have is what we share
Always wishing you were there
As we grow ino a flower
We feel we have all the power
Over what we can always do
Knowing that our love is true
Nothing can break our hearts
Nobody can tear us apart
Face the facts of we possess
Or live life in its infinite mess
Don't be jealous over love
For jealousy will never get you above
Love for the feeling not the greed
And you will find all you need

Feelings

I always wondered what it felt like to be in love,
Then the man upstairs sent me YOU from above.
I think about you everyday,
Asking myself "why did I ever walk away?"
I always wondered if you ever told lies & were disceet,
But I couldn't tell so my wonder had me driving the streets.
Now it's the past and yes it hurt,
I know neither of us will be face down in the dirt.
Having you back is much more than a breath of relief,
It's a bond I'll never let go because I have that belief!
Saying "I love you" is just 3 little words,
Your actions show more and it's nothing absurd!
When I look at you I can't help but to smile,
Because I know this time we've gone the extra mile.
I tell you I love you because it's true,
I have to also tell you baby I'm falling IN LOVE with you!
It always stays on my mind,
Knowing this feeling is something I thought I'd never find!
Now that I found with you,
Baby I hope your feelings for me are just as true.
You know I love you most definitely,
I can only hope what I feel for you, you feel for me.
As I said before baby, and this is most definitely true,
All I want is to spend my life LOVING YOU!!!

Over Time

As I sit here & watch you,
I  wonder how all this could be true.
It started out like a dream,
Then after a few months I wanted to scream.
Drifting further, you pushing away,
I wondered if it was worth it to stay.
We chose together to call it ends,
All the while I'm hoping that time mends.
Time apart really tore at my heart,
Not seeing or hearing you just broke me apart.
Thinking about you constantly everyday,
I'd always ask if I saw you what would I say.
Then months later that time came,
And on my phone I saw your name.
An avalanche of emotions came running through,
The thought of me really getting to see you!
There was a question I kept on my mind,
I just had to know, so you gave me your time.
The touch of your skin on mine,
Sent chills through my spine.
Your touch had my mind racing,
Asking myself, "Is this time I'm wasting?"
There was a look in your eyes that night,
It felt as though you said we will be alright.
I missed you beyond what I thought,
Time had a lesson and it was taught.
Being away from you didn't make me better,
It's as though I became slightly bitter.
You showed me a love I've never felt,
A love I thought was gone and wilt.
Time has made that love grow stronger,
If this is a dream I'd like it to be longer!
My love for you has no words,
So I guess for now my actions will be heard.
Our honesty and truth is now pure,
I have nothing to hide from you, I'm sure!
Nobody's perfect in this world baby,
God put us together for a reason, just maybe.
No maybe, I'm pretty sure of it,
Now let's grow old and make the best of it!
I couldn't ask for anything more or less,
I love what we have, although you say it's a mess.
Have just a little faith and see,
We really don't know what will be.
There's only one thing I want to do,
Spend my life loving YOU!!!

For You

Written about you & I,
Thinking back time sure does fly!
I may not always show it like you want me to,
But baby my love for you is forever TRUE!
For a love I've never had or known,
This is a love I'm happy to call my own.
You make me happy in the smallest ways,
But those are the ones I hope stays.
Continue to be real with me,
And with you, it'll work you'll see.
You in my world and I in yours now,
We've come this far but you ask how.
Faith is where I see it from,
Be there with me baby, come.
I love you now & always will,
For this love I wish could just stand still.
I love you baby, I hope you truly know it,
I see in your eyes yours for me is real, I just know it!
