Hold me for tonight..
I know that you can't stay..
I know, for us, there's no forever..
only for today..
Don't try to make it right..
There's no more words to say..
This love we share is now, or never..
So, take my breath away......


Whisper in my ear..
But never tell me lies..
I know the truth is hard to take..
It comes with no disguise..
The path we chose is clear..
We walk with open eyes..
And everything's for love's sweet sake..
will be until it dies......


Take me to your soul..
Set our spirits free..
Tonight on wings of love's desire..
We'll reach eternity..
Your touch has made me whole..
A fire burns in me..
And no one else can quench the flame..
I'm lost within it's heat......


With the break of day..
From loving arms you'll rise..
But there's no pleading from my heart..
Though deep inside I cry..
There's nothing left to say..
I look into your eyes..
Each night we share must end this way..
We never say goodbye......

               I have often said the very
        same things about your beautiful
        thoughts!!  You are truly a romantic
        and I do believe from what I have
        read on this site, that all poets
        have romance in their souls.......
        How else could we all express our
                     feelings?

             Thank you, my friend, and I'm
                so glad that you liked this!

Hi Sunny....
Everything that I read,
Everything that I see,
I'll always read those poems,
As long as it's from thee.

You are indeed a romantic, and you know that I love your poems. Thanks for sharing with little ole me. And fried chicken with all the fixings, two bottles of wine - one red, and one white would do.

Took the breath right out of me it did.  I must learn to breath when I feel the anxiety
setting in.  This one is so romantic and so  "YOU".  Wonderful.....just wonderful.

Hello Michael...
                The indecision is the hard
   part, I know, and if you are the first
   one to say goodbye..well, usually you end
   up asking yourself if you did the right
   thing. The only thing I can say is:
          Communication....talk to her,
     my bet is that she'll talk to you, and
     then you can both find out where you
     stand...share your heart with her....
          (that's why you are a poet!!!)

Oh, Balladeer,
                You caught me reading your
      thoughts again!!!! Seriously, my
      'deer' friend, I really am glad you
      felt this as you read it....that's
      what I intended, as so many of us have
      gone through what I call the 'yo-yo'
      love experience! I'm in the process of
      putting this to a sequence for
      recording. Keep your fingers crossed,
                      ok?
          (and thank you so very much!!)

yep... a package ... interesting concept... of words defining futility and bliss....what a combination, eh? nice work, missy....very fine writing.... "nice work if you can get it"... whoops, pardon me... a little gershwin trapped in my inner ear... and you have inspired my muse... below.... thank you *smile*
________________

~ never say never ~ (by doreen)

gershwin must be trapped, my friend, within my inner ear
and maybe lines that you have written echo me in tear....
i lean to him and listen to his lyric and intent...
and then i re-evaluate the way my time is spent.

whose words are these, the man has asked, and i, in honest voice,
quick tell him that the words are mine, since i am not his choice.
there is no way to lie because i simply don't know how,
yet all my lost imagining brings sweat upon my brow.

thank you, my friend, for sharing lines with  blatant truth, so clear --
yes! - with my sanction quite confused, i'm glad that i could hear.

Hi Sunny...
        I really don't know if it's proper to reply twice to the same poem, but well, maybe no one will mind. Every time I read this I'm touched by your words. I've printed this out, and perhaps will write a tune for it.

Actually, I was born and raised in New York state, but my home is now in Virginia. I work in Iowa at the present time.

Just returned to the guitar after many moons away from it. Bought a new one Sat, and it will be here in two weeks, I hope. One corkscrew coming up!!!!

Hi Bill...
          No, I really don't think anyone
will mind a 2nd post....I know I certainly
don't!!! I am so glad, really, that you
like this poem...the words came from so far
down inside, that it almost hurt to write
it.  
          Yes, that would be wonderful to
have your music put to this!! I hope your
new guitar works out for you.
          Aha!!! I can spot a Southern boy
     a mile off.....(even if he is a
     transplant.....my mother was from
     Kentucky.)  
          My picture looked a bit out of
          whack to me, so I downloaded a
          fresh copy, and hopefully it will
          be back on one of these days!!
