(AN: My muse is the same as previous writings. I have a close friendship. Howie Day's Ghost inspired this one.) Little Moments Little moments I'll treasure forever. Even if with you, I won't be with ever. The day I met you for the first time. Love is without reason or rhyme. We had class together for several weeks. I was the guy who occassionally speaks. Up in class of many a topic. Please do not think me to be some psychotic. One day we walked together down the brick road. I offer to carry your books as well as my load. For you were on crutches at the time. But you had a backpack, so you did decline. I slowed my pace to my next class to speak to you. Sure I got a glare for being late, that's true. But it was well worth it to meet a new friend. I praised the Lord for the kindness he did extend. Giving me the privilage to know someone so kind. I hope that these feelings you don't mind. One sure I'd never sit in the coffee kiosk alone. As traversing solitary paths I am somewhat prone. I still am grateful to God for such a friend. Whatever the result of this shall be in the end. I enjoyed our little chats and small talk. My barriers eroded like the ocean whipped rock. I didn't start out seeking love. But apparently it was the will of God above. Last December. Very distinctly I do remember. We were ready to fly out to our home states. That was when it was the decree of the fates. I would fall in love before my flight touched down. You lift my spirits whenever you're around. We sat and talked for hours over hot coffee. Words and companionship flowed true and free. As we boarded our separate and distant flight. I finally gazed upon your inner light. For much of an arduous second term, you helped me. In more ways that you know, you helped me. I nearly felt like I couldn't ever win. Seeing you always made me grin. Over the summer I felt a resolve to tell you. That I'd fallen for you, yes, it's true. I anticipated the fall term with much eagerness. Unaware of upcoming angstyness. Things went well at first for me. We'd talk and laugh, feeling well did agree. One night I was bursting to the brim. With happiness, unaware things were to turn grim. I felt joy that I fell for such a wonderful girl. Lovely and kind, a truly precious pearl. I had no idea my heart would break. In less than forty eight hours, I would partake. Of the cup of sorrows and hurt. I hope to my sufferings you're not alert. For you would ask me what's wrong. I can't keep the facade up long. I'll lose the friendship with you, I'm sure. The only thing left to me, my only cure. You'll recoil from me, I deeply fear. I don't know that, but before it did appear. With others I've cared for, but it didn't multiply. Instead they chose me to villify. I know your heart belongs to another man. I won't interfere with God's plan. I only wish that the man in question was me. But I'm sure that's now not to be. You I'll never tell of my love. For I fear loss of your friendship, of all above. Still there are moments I'll always treasure. Small they are, but always bring pleasure. Like a healing salve upon the wounded heart. I'll take them with me, whenever we're apart. Your smile when I spilt frappucino on my shirt. I laughed with you, and for a second didn't hurt. Your gratitude and good mood when I surprised you. Before your trip, with music from a heart true. The collection of songs I made for you. Were a gesture of friendship, through and through. I'll be there if you need me to be. Hopefully one day you'll be able to see. That I care deeply for you in many ways. And that I did hurt for many many days. I'll wait for as long as I need to. My love for you is honest and true. I'll always treasure our little moments forever. Even if with you, I won't be with ever. Whatever happens over the course of time. Love is without reason or rhyme. |

![]() (big hugggssssssss) Oh Carl, you write with the greatest utmost honesty, sweet friend, if you could make her laugh and smile, then you never know if you have a chance, you just have to let her know how you feel cause she may also take such heart to those little moments! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Carl, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

as always another excelent poem to your lil marlene. she obviously has no idea of how much you truly love her, therefore never giving her a chance to return the same feeling back to you. she is blessed to have somone like tou there for her who loves her for who she is.... my heart goes out to you knowing what it is like loving someone without knowing if they have / will ever feel the same way about you. my door is always open for a chat and advice if needed. |
