Words Aren't Enough In the early hours of morning, I sit here and think of you The night we just had together comes flashing back, though I smile...I also am feeling blue The words "I love you" just aren't enough for you and me Only when we hold each other will we set our spirits free Though I love to hear your voice whispering sweetly in my ear Only by seeing you and looking into your eyes will it ease my fear We talk of tomorrow, of the day you and I will share forever The pain lessens in our hearts for a moment, but still we yearn to be together The love I feel inside my heart shines so bright Not being beside you though I can feel the fading of that light I am stretching out my hand to you, with my eyes closed as I sigh Please darling know, that I'm holding on so tight, never do I want to say good-bye This relationship though is at times so hard, the pain cuts so deep Our conversations play through my mind as I sit at this table, when I should be asleep We are making plans, and moving to the next stop of me and you I just don't want to push you too hard, I want you to make the decisions for what YOU should do I think about you and your daughter everyday, as I lay here 900 miles away North Carolina and Texas might be far apart from one another, but in my heart is where you stay Eyes closed, for a minute I see your face and it leaves me with peace inside Then the tears I am fighting start to flow once again...just so hard to hide The words aren't enough...I need to feel you in my arms sweet love I keep praying, turning my life and the answers over to the Lord above Please God...if you can make this any easier, I'm begging you to do so She and I deserve this love we've found, that you led us to...its all up to you though Shades of blue paint my soul tonight, I am down on my knees begging for mercy I hope that though the words aren't enough, my love she can truly "see" We will be together for a short time again, very soon...help me Lord find the words to say To show her how much I love her now and everyday "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" [This message has been edited by Aimster (05-08-2002 03:15 AM).] |

Words can't carry the weight of truth, it takes strong convictions to do that and a willingness to walk it through. Well done Aimster. |

Amy lil sis / aunt / cousin/ You know I love this, but then yes like mum I’m a little biased. Not because I wub you, but because I know really good writing when I see it, and this is it. Well written I love it, and yes the words are beautiful, as is the presentation. This is stunning and something very special. The longing and the hunger that pulsate through this is stunning very well written   Love and warm stuff As always Krissy And while thy willing soul transpiers at every pore with instant fires Andrew Marvell 1621-1678 [This message has been edited by Krissy (05-08-2002 10:54 AM).] |

Amy~ I can relate far too well to this.....long distance relationships can be devastatingly hard to bear. But if your love is true, somehow you'll get through it. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Beautifully written poetess. *warm hugs* ~Krista  |

From the heart and oh, so tender. Enjoyed this. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Amy darling lil sis of my heart this is outstanding writing, as always you excel at whatever you write. Fabulous writing and this is so descriptive so vivid in its image of the ache of longing Utterly utterly wonderful writing YOU darling girl never disappoint. Wonderful absolutely perfect poetry, YOU do know I utterly utterly love it don’t you? Of course you do   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |
