Away from You
AMK
3/14/02

I'd give everything I have to hold you once more
These tears fall slowly on my pillow tonight
I remember the warmth of your smile
The feel of your sweet touch throughout the night

Though we're only a part for a while
It seems more like forever
I cherish every single thing about you baby
How I pray that we are soon together

But in the depths of my soul and mind
I know that you and I have a long way to go
Though we love each other more than words can say
We have many obstacles, this we both know

When I close my eyes, I can hear your laugh
I'm reminded of all that is good and true
Forever captivated by your beauy and grace I am
Always, is how long I will love you

But this pain deep inside
Is sometimes more than I can bear
It's something that I bottle up inside
Just too scared to let it out and share

Away from you, I feel so lost and alone
I hear your voice on the phone, but it's just not the same
I know right now I sound pathetic and weak
But what I wouldn't give to hear you speak my name

I hold on tight knowing this love is worth it
But sometimes I get scared for I can not see
But then I remember what my Mom use to tell me...
Whatever will be...will be.

mean they don't love you with all they have"

Yes, Aimster, your mother is right:

But then I remember what my Mom use to tell me...
Whatever will be...will be.

But we can still always keep our scrapbook of memories. Nothing can take these away from us.

I love your poem. Thanks for sharing!

(sigh) Oh Amy, this is sooooo beautiful but sad, my heart goes out to you for I know these feelings ever so well too. I dream of seeing my love Joanan this summer, and I pray with all my heart she will be able to see me, but while I'm waiting for the answer, I feel kind of sad inside and every time I hear a Shakira song, it reminds me of her for me and her love her music so much and it reflects the love we have for each other that I wnat to come true. (kiss on cheek) I prauy with all my heart that whatever will be will fill you with loves happiness forever and ever, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Amy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

You never knew what I loved in you,

Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be.

Miss Amy,
this is achingly beautiful Hon....

But in the depths of my soul and mind
I know that you and I have a long way to go
Though we love each other more than words can say
We have many obstacles, this we both know


You know what they say...Love conquers all, including those obstacles and yup what will be will be!

hugs sweetheart

Amy,

"Away from you, I feel so lost and alone
I hear your voice on the phone, but it's just not the same
I know right now I sound pathetic and weak
But what I wouldn't give to hear you speak my name"


I would not call you pathetic and weak. You are in love and that is a good thing, as hard as it can be at times.  I can understand this well, as you know.  It will all be worth the wait.

Did I say you write beautifully?

Hugs,
Tara
