Tonight And Every Night

Fly with me
tonight
on gossamer wings
of misty dreams
as you lay
in outstretched arms

Sigh with me
tonight
in soft heated breaths
that coincide
as we move
in one rhythm

Cry with me
tonight
in warm quiet tears
of happiness
as I give
you all my love



 To love means never to be afraid of the windstorms of life: should you shield the canyons from the windstorms you would never see the true beauty of their carvings. ~Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

is a "gem."

How could any man help but not cry with you....So see you cry would bring tears to any with a heart Ruth.  

 It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

 And it's good that I'm not angry,
I just need to get over,
I'm not angry, anymore
Cry when you cry,
run when you run,
love when you love,
represent the ashes
that you leave behind
