I know that we will never cross our paths here on this plane.. But I know for a certainty that we will meet again.... Every day the miles between are lessened by desire.. This life cannot put out the flame.. It is... Too strong a fire.... From one life to the next I'll keep you burning in my mind.. And when I reach the crossing place, I hope that I will find.. you're standing there with open arms and your love that never tires.... Our flame will never lose it's light.. It is... Too strong a fire.... We've never met as lovers, yet we're so much more than friends.. Your tender words are sparks of love in letters that you send.... And though I'll never look into your eyes filled with desire.... Your flame will glow for me, I know.. It is... Too strong a fire.... So, hold my heart within your hands and treat it with such care.. Just nourish it, and keep it warm, My heart is happy there.... You lit the match and fanned the flames they're burning so much higher.... Those flames will last, now and beyond.. It is... Too strong a fire.... ~~~~~Live for Today~~~~~ taste every single moment |

I hope the embers will continue to smoulder, just so that they might start another fire... well done, my friend... Sunny ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. Helen Keller ~~~ When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

So, hold my heart within your hands and treat it with such care.. Just nourish it, and keep it warm, My heart is happy there.... You lit the match and fanned the flames they're burning so much higher.... Those flames will last, now and beyond.. It is... Too strong a fire.... Wow! Awesome! I can't explain how deep this one just hits me! Great work! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
