Poems:
I'll Never Be the one
I'll never be the one...
who lies next to you at night.
I'll never be the one...
you dance with and hold ever so tight.
I'll never be the one...
who wipes the tear from your cheek.
I'll never be the one...
that watches you as you sleep.
I'll never be the one...
that you plan the future with.
I'll never be the one...
that you greet with a kiss.
I'll never be the one...
you walk with in the rain.
I'll never be the one...
but, I'll love you just the same.

The Little Things In Life
Too often we don't realize
What we have until it's gone
Too often we wait to late to say
I'm sorry, I was wrong
Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones
We hold dearest to our hearts
And we allow stupid things
To tear our lives apart
Far too many times we let
Unimportant things get in our mind
And by then it's usually too late
To see what made us blind
So be sure that you let people know
How much they mean to you
Take the time to say the words
Before your time is through
Be sure that you appreciate
Everything you've got
And be thankful for the little things
In life that mean a lot

I Want
I want to hold you, stroke your hair
I want to let you know I care
I want to open up my mind
so you can see my love is kind
I want to make you understand
my love is gentle, hold your hand,
and touch your face and kiss your eyes
make you believe I speak no lies
I want to let you deep inside
so you can see I do not hide
so you can know my love is true
so you can feel my love for you.
- Barb Carlson
Wishes of a Lover
As I look out at the majestic sea,
I know you and I were meant to be.
I only wish I could make you see
How much your love means to me.
I wish I could walk up to you
And speak the words that lovers do.
But now I sit here sad and blue
Wishing that I could be with you.
- André Vridstoft
All I Can't Say
There's so much I can't say
when I look into your eyes.
I'm worried you'll reject me
and hurt my foolish pride.
Each day this love grows stronger,
but I could never let you know.
There's so much behind my smile
that I could never show.
I'd hold you for a lifetime,
if you would let me in.
I'd love you like no other,
but you don't understand.
Every time I see you
you are holding her.
The pain is like a knife
cutting deep into my soul.
So I'll dream of us together,
of just how it could be.
And all that you are
will remain a silent part of me.
- Erica Dione Barnard
Friendship or Love
The nights are long.
The days so sad.
Not knowing what we lost,
Not knowing what I had.
I think of you for hours.
Your lips I just can't kiss.
You're the one I want.
You're the one I'd miss.
Although we talk of friendship,
I always think of love.
Hoping we could have more,
Not just a friendly shove.
You tell me of your problems.
I listen with open ears.
I'd like to tell you mine,
But I'll always have fears.

You're Always On My Mind
You're always on my mind,
in my heart, and through my soul,
an entanglement of happiness
engulfs the world I know
You seem to possess vibes
that make the world go round
an engaging smile that makes my heart go sound
A smile tends to creep onto my blissful face
as I think of all the memories of
you cheering up the place
You seem to have a touch
to make me laugh, blush or cry
or even just a look to make me want to fly
I just want to wrap a vine around us two alone
to keep the world separate
from the flirting we have shown.
I don't know how to express it all.
My words cannot escape
I tend to let them all seep out
but they sometimes are too late
I want to tell you everything that I write and think about
but a laugh and some hints
is all that I can get out
Stronger and deeper we get day by day
I don't know what makes me feel this way
Just the thought of you being by my side
is ever so close for me to be satisfied
an eternity is just too long for me to wait
the enchantment of your kiss would make the smile gleam
give the undreamable commodity
that the existing vitality
has yet to know

Hold Me
What have I done?
Is my life prone to sadness?
Will you be here in the end?
I need you, I want you so.
I never want to let you go.
The pain.
Deep inside.
Saddens my soul
and my mind.
Love me again.
Like I love you.
Kiss me again.
Like the way I want to kiss you.
Hold me near.
Keep me safe.
Don't let me slip.
Don't let me fall.
A pink cloud fills my head.
I hear only the sound of your breath
as we hold each other near.
If only we both cared.
I feel your every pain.
I cry your every tear.
I want to be with you again.
I don't know how long I can take this.
All my joys turn to fears.
Hold me, just hold me.
Never let go.
I love you my friend.
So much that you don't even know.
- Cindy Stevens
I Wish
I wish you were here, here right now
to share these moments
with me some how
I wish I could see the look on your face
I wish you could be with me right now
Right here in this place
I wish I could hear the comment you'd make
or even for a moment to see...
the breath you would take
I wish I could hear your laugh full of cheer
I wish for a second to see
your frightened eyes full of fear
I wish everyday to see your trials and your gladness
Or when someone hurts you
For you to express to me your sadness
Of all the places in the world I wish you could be
Right now in this lonely moment
I need you right here with me
- Ashlee Martin
Confused
When I remember the night
You held me in your arms,
Everything seems all right.
But then I think of the dance,
When you walked away.
Leaving me afraid to take a chance.
You left me feeling confused and sad.
So many mixed signals,
You're driving me mad.
I wish I knew how you felt,
Because when I look into your eyes,
I begin to melt.
I wish I could see,
What goes on in your head so I could begin
To understand your feelings for me.
And even though you cause me so much heartache,
I continue to love you every hour of every day.
Love Is Forever
You said me you'd always love me
You told me you'd always care
You swore that you'd be faithful
You promised to always be there
You swore to never leave me
You vowed to never lie
You promised to never hurt me
But all I do is cry
And every single night
Before I go to sleep
I lie awake and wonder
Do you still love me
Why do I feel so lonely
This is shattering my heart
Why couldn't we work it out
Why did we split apart
And everytime I close my eyes
All I see is you
Our love will never die
Because I know it's true
I feel so empty without you
No words can express how I feel
And deep in my heart I know it
My love for you is real
Our love will never end
No matter what you do
I wanted you to know that
I always will love you

Together
Together,
Within a smudge of blue,
I walk the footpath.
Together,
With only ourselves in a group,
We are content.
Together,
We talk about the important things
Of our lives.
Together,
We are somehow complete,
Needing no-one else.
Together,
We hear the voice behind us,
Interrupting our private world.
Together,
As if one person, we glance back,
Seeing the face that spoke.
Together,
We try to accommodate the person,
Losing the closeness we had.
Together,
The conversation we make
Is of mindless events.
Together no longer,
We become smatters of blue
That once made a beautiful smudge
Have You Ever...
Have you ever felt alone in life,
Felt no-one cared for you?
Or been out with a group of friends,
And felt alone then too?
Have you ever had a broken heart,
You felt couldn't be repaired?
Or tried to touch somebody with your words,
But knew nobody cared?
Have you ever needed good advice,
But were too afraid to call?
Or felt separated from the world,
Surrounded by a brick wall?
Have you ever been asked about your future,
And said you couldn't care less?
Or tried to pick up the pieces but,
They make just one giant mess?
Have you ever felt so confused,
That you couldn't even cry?
Have you ever felt so damn depressed;
Have you ever wished to die?
