017 – First Love Never Comes Twice

First love never comes twice I fear
It happens only once in a  lifetime
A love that melts a heart when it appears
Beautiful and romantic as a poet’s rhyme

First love never comes twice I know
When two souls bound together as one
When two hearts beat in rhythm in solo
With passions forever growing undone

First love never comes twice they say
A dream awaken,  a dream fulfilled,  a soul mate
You lie alone in the dark and pray
That these feelings would never go away

First love never comes twice I found
A heart that jumps when your lover comes around
Only joy and happiness for each other in mind
Two souls entwine,  a providential design

First love never comes twice
So young lovers take my advise
Hold tightly to each other and never let go
If you do, young love will forever grow
If you don’t, your first love will forever haunt you so♥

121 – She’s There (A Song)

Each move I make
Each breath I take
She’ s there

When I’m asleep
In slumber deep
She’s there

Every dream I dream
It always seems
She’s there

When I awake
When the daybreaks
She’s there

When the day is long
And things go wrong
She’s there

When the night appears
With its daunting fears
She’s there

When I lie in bed
And rest my head
She’s there

*When I need someone to care
She’s always there

                                                                       * A musical  turn around

196 – Just a Boy

Just a dream
Just a dream
Just a chance
Just a chance
Maybe she
Exchanges a glance

Just a moment
Just a moment
Just a try
just a try
Maybe she
Will catch  my eye

Just a look
Just a look
Just a start
Just a start
Maybe she
Will offer her heart

So Let love unfurl
For after all
I’m just a boy
Looking for a girl
to love

“Don’t forget I’m just a girl
Standing in front of a boy
Asking him to love me”

195 – Can’t We Start Over Again ( Dedicated to —–)

Lover
Can we start over again?
Go back to remember when
You were in love
I was your all
With you on my arm
I was ten feet tall
We played love’s games
Like young lovers do
Looking to discover
How to kindle the flames

Beloved
It’s been too many years
Too many tears
We’ve passed the age
I have never forgotten
But life has changed me
In so many ways
Can we ever rekindle
And bring back those days?

Lover
We need to collect those years in between
And cherish those moments we have seen
We need to store them in our hearts
There to remain as we make a new start
Two separate lives together again
Eye to eye
Sigh to sigh
Thigh to thigh
Never to wonder why
A kiss on the lips
Will gently awaken
The love that was hidden
Ours for the taken♥

193 – Missing You

missingIt’s not the years
It’s not the times
It’s not the distance
Your face
Your touch
Your smile
Lasts for just a little while
It’s not the tug of my heart
It’s not the drops of my tears
It’ not the sound of my sighs
For
Who understands?
Who appreciates?
Who could care?
I just miss her being here

192 – Second love

second loveListen young lovers
Listen to what I say
First love never goes away
The essence
The look
The kiss
The smile
May only last for a little while
Hold on to what you started
Never to leave broken hearted
A word to the wise
A second love
Is nothing but a compromise?

190 – A Lover’s Lasting Countdown

  • 10. Now I understand why she was right and I was wrong.
    9. No one can hurt me when I’m alone.
    8. Old songs bring back happier times.
    7. I’m counting the days when I won’t miss her.
    6 It’s easier to leave then to fight for the one you love.
    5. I guess I should not have fallen in love with her.
    4. A heart full of pain is a heart full of love.
    3. It hurts to love someone who doesn’t love you back.
    2. Her love remains in my heart but not in my life.
    1. It wouldn’t hurt if I didn’t love her so much.

084 – How do you?

How do you let go?
hurts to let goHow do you remember to forget?
How do you reminisce and not know?

How do you restrain your feelings?
How do you inhibit your emotions?
How do you suppress what’s appealing?
How do you curb your devotion?

How do you continue to hold it all together?
How do you persist in your mime?
How do you endure when things don’t get better?
“How do you hold on to her and let her go at the same time?”

189 – What is There to Say?

onesidedloveThe most important decisions in life
Are sometimes the hardest to make
You choose
You loose
You make
You break
But that’s the chance you take

Love’s decisions last for only a day
But the hurt never goes away
You sleep on it
You dine with it
You challenge it
You romance it
But you never get over it

What is there to say?
Sometimes what’s important
Never gets said
Sometimes the things that matter
Are difficult to express
You bind them
You struggle over them
You languish over them
You lament over them
Soon only to find them
Slipping away

 With love there’s no exception
Pursue
Dismiss rejection
Words never spoken are words never heard
Let loose the feelings
Take a step above
For the heart can’t survive
A one-sided love
