Because of you I view the world through a different pair of eyes
It takes control and grabs my soul and makes me realize
That the child within has been released and now tells me what to do
To spread my love across the land and it's all because of you

Because of you I feel the love that I thought would never be
A love so pure and so sweet is what you give to me
I write these words upon this page so that the world can't misconstrue
That the feelings I have deep in my heart are all because of you

Hoot...I e-mailed this to her when I wrote it a while ago. She didn't have too much to say about it other than the fact that she liked it. I fear my words have become nothing more than a novelty to her. That's why I don't write love poems any more. The ones I have posted and the few I have left to post were written some time ago. Let's just say that I've lost my inspiration in that area. If you check out Dark Passions you'll see what I mean. Thank you, I'm glad you liked it.

Well, I'm sorry to hear it, G.A. At least you had the feeling and made the effort. That counts, if not for her, at least for you. Good writing.

G A...to be told that one is the impetus and inspiration that you've written about here  would bring the most grand sense of sweetness...this is a wonderful tribute. I hope she'll come round.

GA I love your poem!!  I'm sorry to hear that she didn't say to much about it! Certainly her loss!  But I hope there comes a time when you will be inspired again. You do so well with those words.

Where there is faith,
there is love.
Where there is love,
there is peace.
Where there is peace,
there is GOD.
Where there is GOD,
there is no need.

Sometimes sorrow itself can be an inspiration to write. Anything you feel can be put into words, and may turn out to be your best. Please don't ever stop writing
