I need you
Like the flowers need the rain
I will never be the same
Til you're here with me again
I need you.

Time and circumstances keep us far apart
But everyday you're here in this lonely womans heart

I need you

I live each day believing in our lovers dream
Its all I have to hold to through each lonely night it seems

I need you
Like a tree blown by the wind
We wont break, we'll always bend
I will love you til the end
I need you

Theres not more I can do to make our someday come to be
So until that day comes round I'll be waiting patiently

I need you

I'm just a shadow of the woman you once thought you knew
Because the best part of me is living there with you

I need you
Like the flowers need the rain
I will never be the same
Til you're here with me again
I need you


I love you

Oh Paula...I can feel the tears in this one
sweetie...sending hugs your way on angel
wings...keep setting them free in your
poetry and past the pain feel the healing.
There is beauty in this piece...the beauty
that's within you Paula.  Take care of you!

Oh,....tear.
I feal your pain, as mine is same.
Its such an amazing experience of being with someone that is so special.
You sometimes find that not only does that person bring out the best in you; but they even bring out parts of you that you never even thought you had.
And when they are far away you feel helpless like your an empty shell of what you once were; dying in despair and lonliness.

I wish I could hold my angel (Kelley) for even 5 seconds and I would die a happy man.

I hope everything works out for you.

"Like a tree blown in the wind

I will love you to the end"

my admiration to this line
I enjoy your style of writing, the way it is broken up, it shows so much expression, your poem makes me sad though it reminds me of one of my poems about lost love=)(=

Hello, my twin.....

        This one sings to me like a song yet to be.  It is soft and sweet and has such a need to be heard. You are such a great writer that my eye always looks for your name, so that I can read your thoughts again.

             Live long and prosper......


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!
