They Don't Know

The stars are out of reach they say, calling us foolish lovers indeed
Little do they know that your love entered me at an Angels speed
All my life I've heard the same kind of story
Dare to dream and you will probably be sorry

They don't know you though, or what it's like to get lost in your eyes
How my heart just quickens at the sight of you, and when we're apart how it cries
They don't know what it's like to feel you close to me
Or how it feels to have a love that is mine completely

I can't promise that we won't ever stumble
Some days will be rough and we will tumble
Just remember though, that I love you so very much
Watch me tremble and you'll know--as we softly touch

No they don't know how in the night, I ache for your heat and kiss
Daring not to see the truth, there is so much about you they will just miss
When the world is against us, and the bitter cold threatens you and me
Just hold on tight my darling, this love will carry us through, you'll see

They don't know what it's like to have your lover also as your friend
Or what forever means, that you don't just leave...but are there until the end
Someday though, when you and I are both gone
They'll hear a melody in the air, that of our love song

Maybe then they will know




"you can't stop
the rain
from pouring down
can't stop the
world from turning 'round
can't stop me from
loving you
no matter
what you do"

(smiles) Yes, yes, it does make me sad to feel so many not believe in the magic of love, but I for one believe it is written in the stars and somwhow when they fall in love they will understand too! (kiss on cheek) May love always fill your heart, 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,
Noah Eaton

Amy, I'm sorry you hurt. It will all work out and just hold onto what memories you do have until you two can be together. It will carry you through. Beautiful write as always, Amy.

Amy darling lil sis of my heart this is as always superb writing form you. Your use of line, rhyme and form is exquisite and I utterly utterly love this.
Very very good writing

They don’t know if they don’t see
The beauty of a love meant to be
Dare to dream and hold to trust
Love will grow not fade to dust
Within a heart all things can be
Take your chance to love truthfully
Trust in love you’ll find your way
Live in love each and every day

Perfect as always darling heart you really are an utterly utterly excellent writer


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy
