compatibility
is a rare and rewarding
experience
reflection of true
affection has little to
do with perfection
Love includes patience,
empathy, sacrifice and
occasional hugs
up all night with things on my mind
realizing you're the one who could put all my problems to sleep
but every time i turn to you, you start to fade more quickly
like the snow in late january
realizing you're the one who brings out the best in me
the only one whose arms make me feel safe every time i'm in them
but right now, there's an empty space to be filled and I need you
wondering if you'll ever be there for me
time passes by and still no answer
i dare to reach out and touch
i don't think you realize how much i need you
can't you see it in my eyes
can't you hear it in my voice
I need you this much
Where there's darkness, there is light
Where there's black, there's white
Where there's evil, there is good
For every wrong, there is a right.
Opposites are everywhere,
and that's a simple fact.
Another thing that you must know
is opposites attract!
You see, you and I are not alike
and you know that this is true.
Would you mind to prove this fact
to send my message through?
Can you say "Yes" when I ask you out
say yes, it's just an act?
But if you say yes, you can't leave me,
'cuz opposites attract.
I can't run far enough to run into your arms.
I can't scream loud enough for you to turn around.
And I can't climb high enough to see you again,
No matter how much I wish I could.
I can't erase our past mistakes.
I can't make the world a transparent place.
And I can't set you free from your fear,
No matter how much I wish I could.
I can't relive those moments in your diary.
I can't find you at the bottom of a bottle.
And I can't catch you when you stumble and fall,
No matter how much I wish I could.
I can't stop thinking about what may have been.
I can't always say what you want me to.
And I can't change myself to fit your puzzle,
No matter how much I wish I could.
I can't smell your hair anymore.
I can't taste you on my lips anymore.
And I can't gaze at the smile that melts my heart,
No matter how much I wish I could.
I can't breathe in your last exhale.
I can't hold your face in the palms of my hands.
And I can't get lost in your eyes again,
No matter how much I wish I could.
I can't be anything more than fallible.
I can't be anything less than a lover's fool.
And I can't change the way I feel about you,
No matter how much I wish I could.
No matter how much I wish....
“Love”
Love is like a flower
It's beautiful when it blooms,
But ugly...
When it's dead.
I want our flower to be forever
Never dead always beautiful,
You mean the world to me
I can't see me with any one else but you!
I think of you before I sleep
And even then I am not safe.
You sneak into my dreams,
And you haunt me there.
Our flower is dying
And I can't stop crying,
I want our flower to be more alive
Than it was when I first laid eyes on you.
You can tell I'm in stress
But all I want
Is to see you in that white dress,
Walking down the isle with that beautiful smile.
Looking into your eyes, all I see is
The flower we promised
Will never die.
“Why Not Me”
What good, don't you see?
I'm a modest character,
I've been humbled in more ways than one.
My talents range from one end to the other,
and my devotions travel even farther.
I care and am concerned more than you can think,
though you seem to be blind for some reason.
I'm better than him and the sad thing is- you know it.
You're better than him and the even sadder thing is
...you know it.
Would it be so wrong to give me a shot?
To make you happy, I'd give everything I've got.
As happy as you think you are right now,
Multiply it by the biggest number you can think of,
That's me with you... taking that long shot.
“Sleeping”
Breathing...
Quiet - Serene
With each breath drawn
Her chest moves slowly
My eyes trace up towards her face
On her cheek some stray hairs rest
Gently, I brush them away with my fingertips
They linger, feeling her soft skin
She stirs...
Her eyes open
I gaze into her deep, passionate eyes
Her lips turn to a smile
My finger traces a line down her face
Falling off at her chin
My hand finally rests between us
Her hand joins mine
They caress...
We cannot let go
My mouth opens...
Form my amorous words
"I love you," I whisper
Her hand squeezes gently
Her mouth slowly opens
I return the grasp
Her words begin...
"I love you too."
Drawing her hand to my lips
I kiss below her palm
Her eyes close again
Her hand still in mine
She drifts back to sleep
The stray hairs fall back in place
“Ashley”
Sitting here, I think of you,
and I get a warm glow inside my heart.
I smile uncontrollably,
because I know that what I feel for you
is nothing that can be ignored.
I can’t hide it, or brush it aside,
or hope that this feeling will diminish.
It’s a true feeling in my heart,
and there’s nothing that compares to it.
This feeling I have for you doesn’t need a title,
it’s hard to put exactly into words what it is.
I know I’ve felt this feeling before, I won’t lie.
Some could call it love, and some would call it a crush,
but I don’t believe that there is one word,
strong enough to describe this feeling I have for you.
I don’t know if I believe in fate,
or the words,”it’s meant to be”
I feel inside only a huge confusion on what to do.
I’ve let you know somewhat how I feel,
but is that enough, should I stop there
so I don’t push our beautiful friendship to its limits?
I couldn’t stand to lose a friend like you.
Sitting here, I ponder what I’ve just written,
and if “love” is the strongest word to describe how I feel,
then to the one I write this to, I love you!
like nothing I’ve ever loved before,
it’s unconditional, undying, and it’s your love,
only you can choose to accept this love I offer you,
because it is meant for you, and only you!
“Thinking of You”
Dedicated to Belen Altamirano
This morning when I awakened,
I saw the sun above and softly said,
“Good morning, Lord, bless everyone I love.”
Right away I thought of you,
and said a loving prayer,
that he would bless you specially
and keep you free from harm.
I felt warm, inside my heart was all aglow.
I hope you feel the same way, too,
and love me like I love you…
Just to let you know
I’m thinking of you, my love!
“Sometimes”
Sometimes…
we take more than we give, never realizing it until we sit and ponder and it hits us so hard almost knocking us down..knowing all we had been given was truly a priceless treasure God somehow had this precious gift come into our lives for an unknown reason.
We give more than we take, feeling at times quite drained… though, the sheer satisfaction of seeing someone happy and smile, the twinkle in their eye.. knowing we were the reason it was so shiny. Sometimes.. we feel we’ll stop giving or giving so very much, yet it’s hard when it’s part of your warm, caring heart to do anything but just that.
we love more than we should not stopping to take a breath or to stop and smell the roses along the way, holding onto that moment.. trying to freeze that memory in our minds forever.
we love too little in fear, holding onto the walls we’ve built up so proudly around our hearts and souls, not wanting to let anyone in for fear that if they really saw more than they should.. they’d be gone.
we cry sometimes, far too much.. yet, the tears do cleansh the soul so when we are ready to meet our Keeper in Heaven, the souls will be pure and white.
we smile in bittersweet memories, of memories past and memories yet to be made.. holding onto hopes and dreams that one day, we won’t be alone again.

“All But That Girl”
You could have all you want.
All your dreams know whatever
your heart would wish for
Except the one thing you wanted most
The friend you always had…
You love her ever so dearly
You care for no one near as much
You love no one as sincerely
Your heart yearns for her love
Which never will you know
Never your tears to dry
Never her heart to own
You are ever so naïve
To wait every passing day
For her to turn to you and love you
When she cares nothing for your pain
I’m not telling you to stop loving her
Your love shall forevermore stay alive
What I’m here to try to tell you
Is to try and move on with your life
A life of opportunity
Full of so much chance
So much a difference to make in the world
If you could awaken her from her trance
You could have a girl who cares
Someone new to love
Someone to dry your bitter tears
And wipe up your heart’s blood
Make you feel like you’re worth more
Than you ever thought to think
A girl who’d always be by your side
And never let your heart sink
I can give you all but that girl
All your heart could wish for
If you’d only look at me and realize
That I’m worth so much more
