i wish i would've told you back then back when we were still just friends i'd given up on love and life and happiness i lived in my own mind yea, my own creation i had no dreams, no i had no motivation i didn't beLIEve in soul mates and i'd only ever been hurt by women i'd never fall in love again i guess i really should've told ya back then then you would've always known right from the very start exactly what you had done to me and what you've done to my heart you would have known how fast you took away my pain breathed a life into my soul and gave me a hope again i wish i had told you back then on one of our first dates so that for every last minute in the past 1600 days you would have always known every time you looked at me that your love saved my life and that you completed me that little life you carried half of you and half of me i'll take him by his hand i will help him see more than the mother that you are more than the woman you can be i will make sure he knows about the person you were to me... ....my idiocy...i was up all night with this one. Good night, John boy! Tony < !signature--> - we're stuck...inside our own machines...apparitions - Matthew Good [This message has been edited by T McCoy (edited 07-31-2000).] |

It's hard to get that tongue to stop waggin when it should'nt and its equally hard to get to move when it should. I thought this was a tremendous read....so down to earth and loving but not without the pain of regret...on goes the poetry so beautiful each time.. |

When the realization sets in that we truly admire and appreciate someone it is an awesome feeling and opens up a door for us to act upon our feelings and emotions...James |

I thought I had already replyed to this one and well I hadn't....Just beautiful Tony...Well she is one lucky lady to have someone feel that way about her....nicely expressed... And I'll miss the smell of his cologne Oh how I will feel so utterly alone And though I never told him And though I'll never hold him I'm really gonna miss him The way he'd hold me just a moment more Even though he was late getting out the door And though I'll never tell him And though I'll never hold him Way down deep I'm gonna miss him.... Julie :) |
