To night I feel a presence
One which I can not see
One which I can not hear
But I can feel her
Even though shes still alive
I feel her with me
I do not know why
I feel at ease
I feel as if I am safe tonight
Safe from all harm
I can feel her arms around me telling me
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid to show her how you feel
You know what you must say
Say you hope she never gose away
That she will stay

Tonight an angel lay beside me







This poem is for all whom is afraid to say how they feel for fear of loseing someone close to them.

Lovely poem, lovely tribute.  I haven't
realized that people are afraid to say
"I love you."   Guess I learn something
new every day.

Thanks

I am struggling with those fears...I have come a long way.  I was able to tell my friend Lena that she is the most beautiful woman in Hawaii....and then tell her all the things I like about her.   James
