Piece of Heaven Amy M. Kennedy I roll over to look at you sofly sleeping ...as I gaze upon your face Soft moonlight is streaming through the window... as time is suspended in place The ticking of the clock says its late... but I can't take my eyes off of you I listen to the soft sounds of your breathing... and at a love that is so true Looking up at the soft pale moonlight... some far away stars catch my glance Twinking from high above... I softly sigh thanking God for allowing me this chance You stir softly and whisper something in the night... but I can't make it out The love overflows my heart... you are my soulmate, that there is no doubt Night turns into morning... as the moon slowy fades away And the promise of a new beginning... opens up with a new day Sometime in the night... I must have drifted to sleep Reaching out to find you not there... I almost begin to weep Twas just a dream I had ...convinced myself you were really here Can't stop the hurt in my heart... as I start to cry tear after tear Why can't we be together... why does it have to be this way It's so apparent we love each other.... why for other peoples sins must we pay I don't know what to do anymore... I don't know what to say I just keeping holding on tight... waiting for the day you'll come to stay The bright sun is now rising... morning has come It's time for me to dry my eyes... for a new day has begun Perhaps today will be the day... when all my dreams will come true And standing on my porch... will be the beauty of you I thank God everyday for giving me you... you have brough a piece of heaven to me Holding onto our memories and our future ...this I will do for all eternity "The head learns knew things, but the heart forever more practices old experiences" [This message has been edited by Aimster (edited 10-04-2000).] |

'Why can't we be together... why does it have to be this way It's so apparent we love each other.... why for other peoples sins must we pay' That was absolutely beautiful! Even though I quoted my favorite part, I loved the entire poem! I am definitely saving this!! sp  Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'it might have been.' -John Greenleaf Whittier |

I must say I read this one twice, and both times I felt so warm, and full of hope for you...I have had those pieces of heaven, and thank God every day. |
