You In Me ~First Knight~ Without you close... I am lost again. I never know where to begin. Feelings exploding, deep inside. Breathless moments.... I must confide. I'm your sun.... Yes, I have heard you say. Brightly shining on your darkest day. But it's because you burn so bright in me. That I give back the life you gave to me. Because.... Losing you is like losing me. For.... utter darkness is all.... I'll see. A man does not love a woman because she is beautiful...But she is beautiful because he loves her. |

Lovely poem...totally "wow". But it's because you burn so bright in me. That I give back the life you gave to me. Beautiful!! Love and hugs, Lizzie ![]() "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |
