Why Question Me, You Know The Answer! You ask me if I love you I tell you the answer's yes But why me you ask I'll answer as I can Why do I love you You speak to my soul When I lay alone I hear you Calling me back to your arms Being held by you I shake with need When I kiss your lips Stars shoot across heaven You touch my heart With tender words When I breathe a sigh You lift my spirit Nothing can harm me When wrapped in your care No dark shadows Will menace my night You give me hope You bring me peace All I am, and ever will be Is because I am loved Because I am Loved by you Why would I not love you?

So ask him if he loves you too and let him reply to you as fully as you did to him. This was wonderful through and through and I just love the way your works shine but I must admit that this particular one may just be my favorite so far of yours. |

Kit, thank you, your work is always beautiful. So I thank you for spreading your spirit around. Mark, do I dare ask, I will, and if he does then I'll glow. If he doesn't then c'est la vie, and I shall be richer for just knowing him! I thank you for your words which always are amazingly beautiful. So you think this is the best, why thank you kind sir. I think it's being in the company of masters that does it. Oh and love of course. Aimster, I thank you for your far to kind words, thank you for reading, I appreciate it and cherish each reply. Waverly917 I thank you for you reading this little poem of mine, and thank you for your praise. |

Mark thank you for coming back, and as soon as I ask him, Passions will be the first to know. I get such a boost from just being here, and especially from your work. I know I tell you so but you might just think I'm being nice. I'm not it's the best, truly. Thanks again Mark Marsha |

Marsha... Ah....you have done it again!!! How I love to read the thoughts in your heart! The only answer I can ever think of to the question, "Why me?", is "Because..."! Great writing here, my friend!! Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Sunny thank you from the bottom of my heart, such kind praise from you. I know I don't deserve to have so many friends who read my work. Still I thank you each and everyone of you. Sunny you in particular have always inspired me, your work is as unique as your soul. Which has obviously been kissed by an angel. Oh and thank you for the cupid, although I don't think I'll have to bother him at the moment. Take care Marsha |
