When Love Finds You


Some say it is fate
That helps you find a mate
For that day, we can not wait

It is a crazy gameā€¦ love
Finding the one you dream of
Who fits you, just like a glove

Someone who is so dear
To lay to rest your fear
And wipe away, your lonely tear

No more feeling blue
The world is brand new
When love, finds you

12 lines of amazing clarity in thought Marina...

I liked this aplenty...particularly,

Someone who is so dear
To lay to rest your fear
And wipe away, your lonely tear


Regards,
Sudhir


 Hey you, out there in the cold,
Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisle,
With itchy feet and fading smile, can you feel me?
Hey you, don't help them to bury the light.
Don't give in without a fight.
Hey you, out there on your own,
Sitting naked by the phone, would you touch me?
Hey you, with your ear against the wall,
Waiting for someone to call out, would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home....

by Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) - The Wall

Love will indeed make us crazy...
and it can make us blue.
But it is worth every tear
when we find love so true.

Two hearts become one ...
contentment is found.
Two sould become one,
by love's promises they are bound.

perfect poem marina-girl ...
we seem to be on the same wavelength once again...
maybe we should put and ad in the paper

 Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme,
They are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be described by words,
Forgiveness and understanding-remain the most beautiful words ever heard.

Marina,
       now who's the romantic one?  This is just wonderful. . .

Couldn't have said it better myself. . .

"The world is brand new
When love, finds you"

Yes it is my friend. . . hope that your world is a brighter place. . .

Marina~
Clearly, the harder one searches
the more it eludes.
Best to stand still and let it come.
Enjoyed the read.

Indded it is,  

 God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown
