    I was looking through old emails and found a folder of old poems. I thought I would share this poem I wrote back in 2007. I guess I already knew I would spend the rest of my life with my now husband.

    Poem: Thousands of words spoken

    Thousands of words spoken 
    Could never really describe 
    Every moment spent with you 
    Through an angels eyes. 

    If I give you a thousand kisses 
    I could never convey 
    The amount of love I feel for you each and every day. 

    A thousand smiles in your direction 
    And you could never see 
    The million of smiles you give me when you look at me. 

    A thousand worlds combined 
    And in my heart you are mine 
    I never thought I would find a love like ours intertwined. 

    A thousand lives in our path 
    A million to come 
    But what I see in my heart 
    Is the love I once lost. 
    Now found through the light 
    Given a chance to shine bright 
    I look into your eyes and see what could be 
    Everything around me has me falling to my knees 
    Thanking the lord and the angels above 
    For giving me your love. 

    A thousand stars in the night and you only see one 
    That’s how I feel when I feel your love. 
    I never thought I find you in my life 
    Everything I look for and all the days of our lives. 

    Thousands of words spoken 
    Thousands of kisses to come 
    A thousand smiles in your direction 
    A thousand worlds found as one 
    A thousand lives in our path 
    A thousand stars in the night 
    No matter how many thousands 
    It will always feel right because you are the man of my dreams 
    The one I adore 
    The one I want to be with forever & more.

  • Letting Go

    Letting go is the hardest thing to do
    but it doesn’t mean I’ll forget you
    when sadness creeps in through the night
    you are the one person I dream about to make things right
    When everything looks like it’s falling apart
    you give me strength to move on

    When I heard you were leaving
    I couldn’t believe my ears
    My heart sank but I held on to fate
    I didn’t want to see it
    I didn’t want to hear it
    but deep down I knew this day would come
    that in darkness you would be gone.

    In my dreams I see you
    and I don’t want to wake
    I can smell you and feel you
    why was this your fate?

    I’ll hold on until I can’t anymore
    but know that I will always love you
    in my heart you will always be
    forever just you and me.

  • Emotions

    My emotions are stirred and I can’t tell you why
    I’m feeling lost in a world I can’t hide
    When laughter and tear drops are all from the past
    I can’t help but hide the tears that last

    In moonlight and stars I cover the pain
    Without you in my life I feel insane.
    Long lasting phone calls and butterfly kisses
    I hold onto the hope and the rainbows in the sky
    that one day I’ll see myself the way you see me
    the person inside the mirror, I just can’t be.

    Feeling lost and incomplete
    time passing by
    leaving me behind.

    You’re everything I wished for
    a shooting star in the sky
    gummy bears and rain drops playing a song
    saying how much you mean to me, after all that’s been done.

    My emotions are stirred and I can’t tell you why
    I’m feeling lost in a world I can’t hide
    When laughter and tear drops are all from the past
    I can’t help but hide the tears that last.

  • Empty Lies

    Your promises are empty lies
    you live in a world I despise
    pretend smiles
    and normalcy
    a gift from you to me.

    Look at yourself, what can you possibly see
    the person looking back at me
    sadness in your eyes, anger and hate
    all the things that have happened have led to your fate
    a little boy lost inside without a care,
    living each day as if it was fair.

    Get over it, stop the lies
    stop pretending this is all okay
    living a lie you believe to be true
    Empty lies covered in pain
    pretending each day is the same.

  • Some people never change

    Some people never change
    you hide behind a smile that I know is a frown
    you hide behind the laughter which I know is drowned
    you say things to make people believe
    but I know deep inside, you’ll never see.

    You will always think your worthless
    I’m starting to see it’s true
    with everything that’s happened
    you think by now you would just be you

    Maybe I’m stupid or just naive,
    maybe this is you
    a person of whom I can’t see
    everything about you is sad from the start
    a man with no face
    a lie to his name
    a perfect story
    a fictitious blame

    Stop before you speak again
    see what you’ve become
    stop pretending
    the lie has already won.

  • Never Before

    Hold me like you’ll never let me go
    Love me like I’ve never felt before
    Kiss me until the stars shine down
    Make love to me and watch my world go round.

    I never thought I would love again
    but you showed me what it is
    It isn’t flowers and hearts
    but what I feel within.

    You showed me what it was to cry
    How to wipe away my tears
    you showed me I was better than that
    you showed me how to live
    you showed me to believe in me
    and never give up hope
    you showed me your heart

    I look at you and I love you
    I see what you can be
    if only I believed in me
    the way you do
    I would go a thousand miles just to see your face
    cross the mountains just to hear your voice
    cross an ocean to feel your arms around me
    if only you can see
    that what we have together is not just a memory

    Hold me like you’ll never let me go
    Love me like I’ve never been loved before
    Kiss me until the stars shine down
    Make love to me and watch my world go round.

  • When you left

    When you left…. image by: google.com/images

    When you left

    When you left
    I couldn’t breath
    I had to take one step at a time to make myself believe
    The pain ran through my veins
    My heart skipped a beat
    And every time I thought of you
    I lied there in disbelief.

    When you left
    My world fell apart
    Everything around me disappeared from the start
    I didn’t think I could move
    But I kept everything inside
    Without you, my world can’t comply.

    I sit there staring at the sky
    Wishing you could hear me
    Wishing you were here
    Why did you have to leave me, when everything about us was real?

    Death comes in different forms
    But yours was very slow
    I got to hold on
    But it wasn’t you anymore
    I try to think of you when the days were warm
    When we loved like there was no tomorrow

    You showed me there was love
    You showed me there was hope
    And I will always love you
    I will always miss you
    I will always remember you

    Because even though you see me walking
    Inside a part of me died with you
    I’ll never get that back until I see you again

    Every day I think of you my heart skips a beat
    Deep down inside you will always be with me
    Until the day I see you again my love
    You will forever remain in my heart.

    Dedicated to all those who have lost someone. Two friends of mine lost their step father recently to cancer, and I cannot imagine the pain they have to go through. The pain their mother is going through. I started writing this because I was thinking about the people I have lost in my life, and I started thinking about them and what they had to endure throughout his sickness. My prayers and thoughts are with them and to all those who have lost a loved one.

  • I know…

    I know… image by: google.com/images

    I know

    I know what it feels like
    I know what it takes
    I know deep inside you feel lost
    A wall you have built
    To let everyone out
    Hoping that will make things better
    Losing yourself within the doubt

    When things start looking better
    You sabotage your own results
    Living a lie not in pleasure
    You cry in bed at all costs

    I know how you feel
    I was there too
    Not knowing who you are
    Pretending to be two

    Living in the dark
    Not knowing where to go
    Living a lie of happiness
    When all you feel is alone

    You don’t have to cry
    You don’t have to feel alone
    You don’t need to defy all the odds
    You have to just let go

    Let go of the sadness, of the anger and tears
    Look deep inside yourself
    And get rid of all your fears

    Deep down there is a way
    Even though you may not see
    But everyone at one point feels alone
    You just have to wake up and see
    That although you do not want to hear it, see it or believe it
    Family is always there
    Because we care.

    Take a moment to see who you are
    Know that in the end you will go far
    You have to have faith and see what we see
    Because deep down inside you want to be free,
    And the only way to do that is to be honest with yourself
    remember that in the end, you can only change yourself.

  • In the dark

    Alone… image by: google.com/images


    In the dark

    When everything seems dark and hasty
    look into my eyes and you will see
    that everything you dreamed about is right in front of me

    Don’t shut me out
    Don’t hide behind your wall
    Stop pretending you are someone you are not

    I used to see you
    but now you’re just a blur
    an image of what I thought you were.

    When you lie to them
    it’s like lying to me
    pretending to be happy
    living in misery

    Look around you
    open your eyes
    this little world you’re living in
    is just a big old lie

    You can’t live on this way
    pretending to be what you’re not
    pretending to all those that care
    as if everything was okay
    pretending that life is easy
    is your biggest mistake

    Wake up and see
    see what you have become
    See that everyone around you
    is linked as one

    When everything seems dark and hasty
    open your eyes to see
    that the real person inside, is staring back at me.

  • Wonder

    Wonder – Images by: google.com/images

    Wonder

    Why do you shut out those that you love?
    Why do you lay there pretending you are the only one?
    Why can’t you see you’re going to be all alone?
    You’ve pushed us away for so long
    We are practically out the door.

    She loved you but you couldn’t see
    All the things she meant to be
    With every day the heart grows fonder
    In this case, the days grew quieter

    With every rain drop tears fell at night
    Holding in the anger that made everything alright
    Now it’s in the open a relationship that barely exists
    Separate lives, one house, not a home
    But a reminder of what isn’t there anymore.

    We hope and we pray that everything will be alright
    Scared to move forward
    Staying in something that isn’t right
    Pretending everything is okay
    Is killing the way I feel
    Wondering if love is even real.

    Does it always go away?
    Or does true love really exist?
    Two people, one world, one love
    In the end does it all even matter?
    Or do we keep moving forward
    Pretending that life is going to be okay
    Scared to move on
    Scared of the world
    Scared to be alone
    Living in a lie that will never be home.
