I would cease to write
if I could have you
to make a deal with god
to always hold you.
To no longer give meaning
to any of my prose
for my deal would be
to have and to hold.
For love I would do
all this and more
to sacrifice my words
would not be a chore.
So if you fear
to what lengths I would do
that small sacrifice made
to show my love to you,

Michael,
This was so beautiful. Another poem that goes to show what an incredibly unselfish, giving, loving, tender beautiful man you are. I know that your inspiration must wake each morning with more love and respect for you then she did the day before. YOur poems are beautiful and so full of emotion, they all take my breath away. Thank you in more ways then I can ever explain......
As Always

Michael....

         I must agree with Jenn on this one.
    You are a beautiful, caring person, and
    I wish you love always with your special
                      One....


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

"In words I once loved you, then you stole my words left me alone, and now I have nothing to say...."

Words are so dangerous, but for my love, I can only live in words.

A great poem.....

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.

Too write is in you my friend.  You have a talent so many want and few have.  Your gesture is true and from heart, but you are what you are ...........and Michael is a writer by nature and heart.  I am sure she woulnd`t change if she could.
