I've Waited For So Long I wandered in the black darkness seeking some comfort The doors leading to loves eternal living hope, it's light The entrance to this paradise of love I desperately sought This truth burning with the power of everlasting delight The realisation that I could have a dream love I fought Thinking that I wasn't worthy I denied,rejected loves sight Love discovered my hiding place, revealed herself to me She threw open the musty windows of my aching heart Blew through my soul with the wind of true loves purity Taking away all the past and gifting me with a new start Opening my eyes to what I'd refused to consider or see That my true love was here in you and we shouldn't part Love woke me from my past showing me beauty so true Revealing the passion that I have kept hidden for so long Bathing my spirit in trust, breathing the words I love you Banishing my fear that I will once again lose loves song Caressing my soul with your warmth, your light, with you I know that it's your kiss, your love, I've waited for so long Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Circe, thank you love, it's weird you know I never know what type of poem will come out. I'm sitting there (at work, waiting for the next manic hour to start) and then I look down and read what has appeared on my note pad. Anyway I'm really pleased you like it. Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Just amazing how a new love can just jump start your whole life but isn't that what it's all about...finding love and trust to cultivte into a spiritual relationship that endures...one that you can place your roots into and call home... all this insecurity hanging around is not good for the future of love...responsibilities still have to be taken care of and hey! why not do it with someone you love.......MPV? |

Ethome, that's it exactly, finding the one whom you can trust in, and work to make a relationship. Thank you it's always a pleasure to see your name, and you know I appreciate it. Amy, love you are so sweet, I thank you so much, you know I really do. The only thing is I don't feel as I should accept praise for something that didn't require any effort. It's obviously a failing of mine, one of millions my sisters, love them, would tell you. But I will accept that you enjoy this.
