Last year when we met, yes you caught my eye Your words made me smile, made me laugh, made me cry But we had other things to learn and to do My path led me elsewhere, far away from you But now a full circle, we're back at the start Wiser for what we have learned while apart Ready this time for our chance to be together Will we be just friends or something far far better Look into my eyes, I am sure that you will see A future that is filled with such possibility So come to me now and if you decide to stay You have my sacred promise, I will never go away Since the day we met there has been this connection You ask me what you did to win my affection How is it I could want you so much from so far It's nothing you did, I just love who you are... 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 |

I just love who you are....*sigh* I just love this poem Steve....it makes me happy, and content in a strange sort of way. Very nice, reading your thoughts. Thank you for sharing such intimacy into your heart. I will email you later, with a more in-depth overview.

So come to me now and if you decide to stay You have my sacred promise, I will never go away Since the day we met there has been this connection You ask me what you did to win my affection How is it I could want you so much from so far It's nothing you did, I just love who you are... ------------------ like I said ... you write from the heart very sweet expressions here Sea-gator VERY!!!! dream sweet dreams ... later-hopful-gator  jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving (How one move just puts me by myself) There you go just trusting someone else (Now I know I put us both through hell) ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong (I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me) And I'm not sayin (We ever had the right to hold on) (I just didn't wanna let you get away from me) ~MB20~ She says baby, It's 3AM ... I must be lonely, When she says baby, Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes, Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it. ~MB20~ |

Coco - thank you very much, glad you liked Gen -  yes, who you are... If you find someone you love for who they are inside, that very central part of their being then you will love them always b/c that part of us that makes us uniquely who we are changes very little in a lifetime. A persons appearance and/or actions may change...Happiness, contentment... those are good things. I am very glad my feelings were conveyed to you so clearly  My heart is an open book to my friends, I can't not share it JM - Always hopeful What point in trying if we are without hope? You know, I know that you know where this comes from...Later-heart friend-gator Melissa - Thank you for your response |

How faith works, it can be wonderful at times. Steve, a beautiful poem. Very romantic, much enjoyed reading this. Since the day we met there has been this connection You ask me what you did to win my affection How is it I could want you so much from so far It's nothing you did, I just love who you are... ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures.
