It is amazing that we two found each other All the miles and years leading up to that day Then, just as now, we both have the same need To love and be loved in a life-changing way To share every part of our most intimate selves Able to speak our minds and show how we feel Without any fear of being judged or rejected To share our fantasies and make them all real Physical bodies alone can never achieve this Heart, mind and soul are an absolute must This is the truth we have discovered together When two souls are one there is absolute trust And a willingness to love with all of our being How it was, how it is, how it ever shall be I wish I could give you heaven on earth But all I can promise, you have all of me I am not rich and I'll never be famous I'm not 'God's gift to women' it's true I am no saint and I know I'm not perfect But all that I am, I give just to you Ours is a love that will last a lifetime And the reason that I can be so sure Every day that I wake up next to you I am happier than the day before... Steven Seaman My poems are my hopes, my fantasies and my dreams Created with emotion, imagination and thought Read my words you will know my heart Look in my eyes you can see my soul |

oh man ...*SIGH* your just so good at this devotion stuff, ya know?  this is SO sweet, and perfect... in one poem you say near every emotion a woman hopes to hear ... wonderful expressions of the gifts that come when true soul-mates find each other. very nice poet sir ...very later-gentle-gator jm Now for me some words come easy But I know that they don't mean that much Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch You never knew what I loved in you I don't know what you loved in me Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be Awake again I can't pretend And I know I'm alone And close to the end Of the feeling we've known ... How long I've been sleeping How long have I been drifting alone through the night How long have I been running for that morning flight Through the whispered promises and the changing light In the bed where we both lie Late for the sky Jackson Browne |

so beautiful and straight from the heart, love is truly a gift and when opened is such bliss. Your words our magic upon the ear as a sweet melody or the river flowing gently with soft waves just a the beat of a heart or two when joined causes such a rhythm that can never be heard but the feeling is way down deep . Thank you for sharing this |

Wow Steve, the woman you wrote this for is indeed one lucky lady...*sigh* It's really a beautiful thing, how things fall into place when we just stop trying to "force" things to work out. It's when we finally sit back and relax, that Fate is finally given the chance to work her miracles in our lives. That's how I like to look at it. I believe someone up there knows far better what's best for me than I do....Did I say how beautiful this poem is Sea? I love it... "Fantasies enrich our lives to the fullest, but true satisfaction comes from creating your own story in the real world! Live out your fantasies & make a storybook with beautiful pictures for the world to enjoy! -poetFemme |

pFF - I believe I am the lucky one having found someone who not only evokes such feelings in me but reciprocates them. And yes "forcing" things to work does not work, sometimes the very thing we needed is right in front us but we are so preoccupied we miss it.

"Physical bodies alone can never achieve this Heart, mind and soul are an absolute must This is the truth we have discovered together When two souls are one there is absolute trust And a willingness to love with all of our being" WOW, my sentiments exactly! Very well said and written here sea. Irie enjoyed this to it's fullest! ~Sheri |
