He use to call me baby ... and it set me free.
He use to write me amazing love poems ...
his sweet words allowed me to breathe.
He use to call me brown eyes, and say I love you, Janet Marie.
He use to whisper affections in my heart...
and promise to love me thru eternity.

I use to call him baby ... and it set him free.
I use to pray ... he'd be here to stay...
no one ever needed the kind of love -- he did from me.
I use to hold him while he cried...he felt so tired and alone,
He needed to be loved this way...
in his life ... this kind of love ... he had never known.

Sometimes fate gives us gifts...and then takes them away.
Sometimes the reasons are just too hard to accept...
until an unselfish love comes in your life ... and in your heart to stay.
Something's are simply -- just not meant to be,
but if you love someone like its your last chance ...
this kind of love ... will truly set your heart free.

... He use to call me baby ... and it set me free ...

Janet Marie

*** this is a repost from forum 6, but I wanted to share it here with you guys as well, since some of you dont always post there.< !signature-->

 ...there are places inside all our souls...
that have never been touched...
there are places inside our hearts...
that need to be loved this much...
Janet Marie

*I miss you baby...
I love you, always.*

"...He used to whisper affections in my heart.."  Oh what a deep, emotional phrase!  Someday, I hope to experience a love as true as you have described.  Keep us posted of some more poems you have around the site.

I whole-"heart"-edly agree with Beverly!
This poem has such power and majesty!
Smooth and flowing, passion showing,
To say this was bad would be a heresy!

Beautiful, Janet! I'm glad you re-posted this here for others to enjoy!

"love someone like it`s your last chance" What great advice! I think too many of us take love for granted (myself included)and when we see it we should hold on to it. Because once it`s gone we realize how precious it really was. Thanks for reposting another wonderful poem.

~janet janet janet

wow! this was in a word...GREAT! I am so glad that you were able to have a love life this in your life. Too bad that all good things must come to an end..but like you said in another one of your poems...if you let the butterfly free, he/she may fly back to you.
