Always

I never will forget,
that sudden sweetness in the air
The honeyed glow of heaven,
falling soft upon your hair

That hush before the dawn,
of every dream we ever dare
The juncture at the crossroads,
of the love we have to share

I never will forget the,
first time that I saw your eyes
Something dawned on me,
that I had never realized

I knew right at that moment,
every dream could still come true
I knew that I could never love,
nobody else but you

Did you know that you are
in my every waking thought?
Did you know that you have been,
in every dream I’ve caught?

Do you know that you are
every beat within my heart?
Do you know how much I’ve
loved you from the very start?

Have I ever told you,
you’re in every breath I take?
Or that you have always been
in every wish I make?

Have I ever touched you,
in a way that lets you know?
Have I ever sang a song,
that made your passion flow?

Your my favorite poem,
that I am ever going to read
Your the only love,
that I am ever going to need

You are every love song,
that the world has ever known
You are every pretty flower,
that has ever grown

Have I ever told you
just how much you mean to me?
Do you know how many things
your heart has made me see?

Have I ever touched you,
in a way that makes you glow?
Have you ever heard a secret
you already know?

You are every single ray,
of sun that ever shined
You are every thing,
that I had ever hoped to find

You have every tender kiss,
my lips will ever need
You are every breath,
that I am ever going to breathe

I want to hold your hand,
when all the wind begins to blow
I want to be there by your side,
so you will always know

I want to be there with you,
on the highest mountain top
I want to be there with you,
if the world should ever stop

All I want to do is hold you,
when your feeling blue
All I want to do is spend,
a lifetime loving you

All I want to do is sing you,
love songs in the park
All I want to do is be there,
when the world gets dark

You are every love song,
that two lovers ever felt
Every time I think of you,
my heart begins to melt

You are every whisper,
in the wind that ever blew
You are every hope and dream,
that ever will come true

The first time that I saw you,
I could not believe my eyes
You are every rainbow,
that has ever kissed the sky

I felt as if the sand ran out
and time forgot to start
It felt as if your hand reached in
and gently squeezed my heart

I knew right at that moment,
every dream had just come true
I know that I will never love,
no body else but you

Your my favorite poem,
I know the verses all by heart
I knew that I would always love you,
from the very start

You are every special moment,
that has ever been
You are all the light,
from every candle in the wind

I never will forget,
that sudden sweetness in the air
The honeyed glow of heaven,
falling soft upon your hair

If you read this and your tears,
are falling on the floor
Then you’ll know exactly who,
this song, was written for

I am right there with you,
wiping every tear away
I am giving you a kiss and
in your arms I’ll stay

You will have to be the one,
to tell me when to go
Close your eyes and listen,
and your heart will let you know

And even if you never tell me,
that you love me too
I just had to tell you,
that I’m so in love with you

So honey please just take this song,
and hold it to your heart
Knowing that the love I have,
for you will never part

If I have to wait a million
lifetimes for your love
I will always wait for you,
within the clouds above

I will wait until the day,
you also love me too
I will always be there honey,
so in love with you

Gosh, dear Richy, who could ever have told that you were speaking of a love, you are still waiting for??? This is a spectacular waterfall of love pouring from your heart. How can "the One" not run ... into your loving arms?

Beautiful!

Happy Valentine.
Love, Margherita

There is so much love in this....and a song?  I could hear it sing as I read it.  Did anyone ever tell you that you look a little like Carlos Santana?  I wish you love!

Have I ever told you,
you’re in every breath I take?
Or that you have always been
in every wish I make?

This is more than enough to melt a heart. *S* Absolutely beautiful! *S*

Hey Richy

You are such a master at your craft and such a hopeless romantic.  Your words were filled with love and were so sincere....I loved it!

"Love........will put it's hook
into your heart and force you
to know that of all strong things,
nothing is so strong, so irresistible,
as divine love"

Take care.......Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Kristabell, and Chanson, it is so very nice
to meet you! Thanks so much for dropping
in and for the warm comments!

Sue ~ I don't know about the master part,
but the hopless thing... that one, you
got right on the money...

Thanks so much everyone
