IT'S OKAY, IT'S ONLY ME...

Dedicated to my dear friends .. love you..

I know you don't see,

but it's ok it's only me

my heart cries a thousand times
but my laughter out weighs a thousand more~

If I could turn back time I would

so you would hold my hand

A FRIEND you are

I hope a friend you will always be

but please tell me you love me~

I am standing way up high

looking at the world you see

I know I can see you way over there

and one day we will have some fun

with every day that passes by

the thought of you makes me sigh~

My best friend I hold you dear

please never never go away~

I pray and hope all the best

I pray for you with all my heart

life just isn't the same when I don't see you

I just can't believe what our lives have been through~

So just know this is me

I can't be another you see~

Debbie Brooks...

EYES TELL

Their eyes met, hands touched and they knew the love was still there.

The loss was determined on the lines that were finished, as the matches of their love ignited the flame.

How wonderful it is to be held but so brief, but still wanting more. The course of their lives ran like a daydream, which they both held dear.

“Always on their minds, the look the love, with every passing moment, the pain is still there.” He once said.

Every time they look away they die a thousand deaths.

Tangled in motions out of their reach

With the opening of their eyes

And each unique and holy dance

That lingers on their skin~

Bronzed with secrets of the midnight sun

Sharing their ghostly dreams

Of what might have been

Huddling in moon shadows

Kissing the tears away~

Enjoying the great beauty

The rainbow

Way over their heads.

For amid all the great, that was their life so short

They fight off wrong decisions with deep breaths~

Woefully they caressed the thread bare lives.

Their mournful cries were fatally removed.

Light bathed and filled with dust

As the trembling hands reached for the door~

Rivers ringing in their brains

Long silk scarf laid crumbled ON THE FLOOR

That fell from her shoulder that fateful night~

Plans made that never knew

The light of day,

They were falling from the memories.

She yearns he yearns~

O’ confirm the unravel charted light

And the breeze that stirred the hair he put back in place

The way the roses fell

Across their hearts

Eyelids close so gently

With longing of the sun that plays on their faces

As the EYES TELL THE MOMENTS that are in

TRUTH this day~

law.

THE VISION

Sitting on my veranda this morning, my heart in my hands

sipping my coffee, dreaming of things to come

are you really you, I ask again and again

something is not right even though the sun is shining

i look to find paradise one just one last time

if the wind is right I could feel the joy

I find tranquility of a vision, i wait to see if you are there

i want the innocence back again~

Oh, how I long for what I can't have, to where I always dream it to be

as the wind would carry me, where I dream free~

I dream of us in a timeless paradise, no alienation or loneliness

only comfort and praise is found in milk and honey called heaven

heart-to-heart of spell, never to end, calmness and desire I caress

with want in my heart and eyes, the gift of you is given in dream~

I curl up in bed till morrow, a pillow i hold tight with my eyes shut tight

I long for a touch either a hand or a breathe of you,

it's emptiness I feel instead

awaking the sickness of insanity, this thing i labeled friendship

one night in Your dream, could I come and visit,

this would be my eternity never would I fear~

The night is coming, the sun has faded... would you come and dream?

for tonight let me show you where I could have been, the past and the present hides my tears again! My future soaks up any sentiment and reflections to my world I do show, looking up to paradise and find the tranquility of what we could have been~
