One September Day
AMK
October 7, 2001

You breezed into my life
On the cool winds of an Autumn air
You had wrapped yourself around my heart
Long before I even realised you were there--

My heart was hurting
I needed release from the pain
And from the moment I felt your love
I've never been the same--

You started out as my friend
A shelter from the storm outside
I found myself in your arms
Myself, from you I did not hide--

You became my new beginning
But then it turned into something more
I continued along my path of Life
And Love stood waiting for me behind the door--

Tears upon my lashes
Are now replaced by a smile upon my face
A heart that was torn in two
Is now full of love and grace--

You've done more than to mend my heart
I've fallen deep in love with you
You and your love are unlike anything I've ever had
You are real, your love is true

We have something lasting
Something built on the now and here
It isn't based upon dreams or wishes
I'm no longer consumed with sadness or fear

Like two pieces of a puzzle
We just fit together with ease
My heart that was once filled with uncertainty
Is now replaced with peace

On a cool September day
Your love found its way into my heart
Now we begin this journey called Love
As I begin a brand new start

"If I am ever going to mend this broken heart...you look like a good place to start"

This is so lovely. I can just feel your joy jumping off the page.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

You got to get up every morning with a smile on your face

"My heart was hurting
I needed release from the pain
And from the moment I felt your love

Ain't it just grand how love can do that! This is full of hope and happiness, both of which fit you well, take care!

===================================

Heres to the "here and now & to the real and true"...
heres to "happy ever after & dreams come true."

Its what we all deserve and what we have hoped for for you Amy-girl.
Good to see you so happy.
take care

We're all feeding our lonely ... like it might go away,
Like the doors of heaven will swing wide ... if we just find the right words to say.
