You In Me ~First Knight~ Without you close... I am lost again. I never know where to begin. Feelings exploding, deep inside. Breathless moments.... I must confide. I'm your sun.... Yes, I have heard you say. Brightly shining on your darkest day. But it's because you burn so bright in me. That I give back the life you gave to me. Because.... Losing you is like losing me. For.... utter darkness is all.... I'll see. A man does not love a woman because she is beautiful...But she is beautiful because he loves her. |

Lovely poem...totally "wow". But it's because you burn so bright in me. That I give back the life you gave to me. Beautiful!! Love and hugs, Lizzie "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

Oh man..the "loosing you is like loosing me" line really got to me. I can relate so much to that. Powerful, beautiful, heartwrenching this is....another masterpiece. *Krista Knutson* "Lonliness is the human condition." *Mark Twain, in the book "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn"* |
