It’s nice to live in a world
Without a doubt
That she is the girl
I cannot live without

As long as she needs me
And changes never
I’m thinking of her only
And giving her forever
Only she really knows
My heart’s special place
Where my thoughts sometimes go
And can never be replaced

Wherever she may run
I know I’ll be there
With her, the one
Who’s life I share
All she has to do is ask
And I’ll fall upon my knees
So she can remove this mask
And the little pieces of me

Tonight the lightning strikes
And a new wind blows
Bringing a certain calm she likes
That only she will ever know

Excellent poem, I love the part about removing the mask. It is true that only those we truly love can see us for who we truly are.

 I am not a poet, I am merely one who speaks in emotion

I agree with Mistikman's comments.  I would add that we show more of ourselves to those we truly love, because real love opens the heart and mind.
Nice Poem!

So well said JML

 Did Jesus laugh?
I think He did,
'cause He was once
a little kid;
and all of us
were made with joy
both sugar-spice girl
and snake-snail boy!
