with you

0 posted 2002-04-24 09:49 AM





I meant to tell you sooner
I just couldn’tfind a way
I tried to tell you poetically
But the words weren’t mine to say

I would have said it boldly
Had my heart not been so full of pride
I would have told you so sweetly
In passionate confide

I wanted to say aloud
What my soul already knew
But my tongue gets tied
When I look at you

I needed to explain
These emotions I keep
But I’m afraid my shyness
Runs far too deep

I must, I will, I’ll try
Find a way to say
To tell you of this love
To speak these words one day.

I thought that was what poetry was for...
to allow those tongue-tied moments to find a way...

good morning SEA...thanks for the lovely...

Susan,

I think you have. Poetically!

(smiles) Oh Susan, I know just how you feel, I too know that feeling where you want to be with someone but you also don't want to risk making a fool out of yourself! (kiss on cheek) This is wonderfully heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Susan, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

The heart of you

Speak the words when love is right
And heart beats quicker at the sight
Of one who makes your life worthwhile,
One who makes you laugh and one who makes you smile.

For when these words are heard by one
Whose heart is filled with bright of sun;
Then shall love be found by you
In times of joy, forever new.

Thank you.

What light through yon window breaks?  It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.

I tried to tell you poetically
But the words weren't mine to say

I would have said it boldly
Had my heart not been so full of pride
I would have told you so sweetly
In passionate confide
============================

and now you have found them...kissed them with cadence and sent them into the poetic winds...your muse gave the emtions a voice...and whispered what your heart needed to say.
Keep talking...we're listening

Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch

Very sweet (and a bit melancholy). I've always had a softness for the sea. And SEA too, I suppose.

Susan,
And the cat has your tongue again. It's okay, I love you do and don't say! Always...

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!
