A Love Marked with Destiny
Part One
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I looked at you and you looked at me
My pulse quickened...as I gazed into your eyes
Your lips found mine in that split moment of perfection
Never have I felt so complete, not a second of hesitation
Your lips, they taste like wine...so devinely sweet
And then our bodies moved, and it consumed me....an intense burning heat
Making love to you, completely stopped the world and my heart
Wanting the moment to last forever...never to part

Every moment I fell harder and harder for you
Gazing into eyes so trusting and so blue
You said be gentle with my heart...take it nice and slow
I said don't worry baby I got nowhere to go

The rhythm of our bodies gently became one
As I experienced ecstacy, with the moon, stars, and sun
When you whispered to me in the night, and gently said my name
It was right then and there....I knew I'd never be the same
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Part Two
I can't believe it's true
You feel the same way as I do
I look into your eyes and now I see the light
You showed me your true colors on that fateful night

My heart and yours beat together in a rhythm of love
When I am with you, I thank God above
Your kiss takes my breath away, draws me in even more
So glad I didn't give up and shut this very door

I never knew a love like this
Such sweet eternal bliss
Not thinking of anything but this moment and you
Your eyes are shining a rose's early morning dew

I had no idea how you felt…it is so amazing
You are so beautiful, truly captivating
Be gentle with my heart…handle with care
My love, I dream of a life that we could share
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Part Three
Gazing into your eyes...what do I see?
I see someone who is in love with me
Our love has marked all over it, destiny and fate
You are my one true love, my forever soul mate

But perhaps our love isn't to be
Is it my imagination or is it reality?
I know how you feel, and I feel the same way
Wanting to be with you ...today and always

But there are walls that demand you and I not to be together
Even if we did pledge always and forever
A love like this is a forever one-time chance
I knew you were special...from the very first glance

Are we being fools to throw it all away?
Is there a way to make our love stay?
So many questions, so little time
Wishing forever that you could be mine

You say that you love me, and I know that it's true
Every time we're together, in everything we do
But for reasons I can't control… we aren't meant to be?
Doesn't it matter that I love you completely?

How could something so right, be deemed as being wrong
I can't deny my feelings, together you and I belong
How do I pretend to others that I'm not in love with you?
When all I know is to thy own self be true

Is there a chance we can continue to be together?
Or is it time to end things here
The choice is up to you…I will do whatever
But the thought of giving you up…leaves nothing in my heart but cold fear

So baby, now what do we do?
Do we pretend you don't love me and I don't love you?
So much confusion, yet it could be so simple and right
If forever in my arms I could hold you tight

All I know is our love is marked with destiny
Forever lost in your eyes I could be…for all eternity
Surely you must feel it too, this emotion deep inside
To me you can't lie…there's nowhere to hide

I feel the time is slipping fast away
But the choice is yours…I won't beg you to stay
The stars are shining high above in the diamond night sky
And all I am left to do is sit and ponder why

I feel so close to you…yet so far away
Forever in my heart, I will keep that special day in May
If you want my love, you know where to find me
Deep in your heart that's where…just look and you'll see.

This is beautifully written, Amy, and so filled with longing and love. I don't know what the 'walls' are, but I hope you can try to see things objectively (which isn't easy when you are in love) and make the best decision for your future.

Amy,
    This is so full of emotion and what an amazing ride from pure love to a quiet desperation!I loved these lines


If you want my love, you know where to find me
Deep in your heart that's where…just look and you'll see.

Great poem.

Hi Amy
This is a fantastic poem.
I felt the same way as you wrote
"All I know is our love is marked with destiny
Forever lost in your eyes I could be…for all eternity
Surely you must feel it too, this emotion deep inside
To me you can't lie…there's nowhere to hide"

These lines are wonderful.

Sincerely
A_L

My Dear Friends~

You all surely can't know what
your responses to this poem has
meant. This has been by far the
hardest piece of poetry I have ever
wrote. It holds such a depth of truth
in it that it kinda scared me to write
it. I have sent it my love and they liked
it very much. however, i am still waiting
to see where this new love takes us. it is
people such as yourselves that make me
believe in fairy tale endings but who also
show me anything worth having is very
hard work. thanks so much for your kind
replies. as always i take them to heart.

love,
amy
