I Hate It
by S.S.
I hate it when you make my heart beat increase
I hate it when you make all time seem to cease
I hate it when you whisper in my ear
I hate it when it is you that causes my tears

Why must I feel this way about you?
Why must you do the things to me that you do?

I hate the fact that you lead me on
I hate the fact that you made my feelings for you strong

I hate the way the next thing I say is true
That most of all, I hate the fact that I love you.

Hopelessly Devoted To You
By S.S.

I dream the same dreams time after time
My lips touching yours, yours touching mine.
Why must I dream these torturous things?
My mind is lost, and my heart in chains.

For I belong only to you, don't you see?
My heart will never again be free.
And until you return my feelings that are true
I will remain hopelessly devoted to you.

A Dream Come True

So close to you
But yet so far
Head over heels in love
With everything you are
Ill without you near me
And ill with you nearby
If I could, I'd hold on to you forever
And never ever say goodbye

Waiting for the perfect timing to tell you how I feel,
But as time passes by,
I only get more ill

Those flowing emotions
Turn my world around
I live for small moments
Of attention from you
Can't seem to keep my feet on the ground

If just for a second
I could hear your voice,
If I could hug you
And kiss your lips,
If I could run through your hair
With my fingertips
It would be like a dream come true
To love and be loved by you.

by Unknown

There is 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 only let me in.

I'd love you like no other
but you just don't understand.

Every time I see you
you're holding onto her.

The pain is like a knife
which will leave a scar for sure.

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.

The Name
By: SheridanC

I'm so confused.
Last night I said your name,
When we've been apart,
Forever this way.

But as I was thinking,
Of the one I should love,
I realized it was you,
That I was thinking of.

Why, when I don't love you anymore?
Why, when you're not on my mind,
And you haven't been for such a,
Very long time?

What's happened to me?
It's been such a long while,
Since we broke apart.
Am I in denial?

I don't know.
I'd rather not think of you,
Because you made me uncomfortable,
With the things you would do.

Yet last night,
While I was thinking of him,
Your name rolled off of my lips,
Like a sin.

And I hate it.
I really, really do,
I hate it because,
I'm thinking of you.

Forever
by Bryan Zimmerman

On certain nights, if you listen closely
As the wind gently blows through your window
You can hear the moon making love to the night
Such a sweet song they sing to each other
And tonight I sing it to thee.

My lady
Had we never met
'Tis possible
I would have never experienced true love
As I have with you.
For true love is found deep within
As is perfect beauty
Both of which you possess in abundance

In my life
I have witnessed the most breathtaking of sunsets . . .
Indeed the most delicate and beautiful snowfalls . . .
I have laid eyes upon the brilliant colors of leaves in the fall . . .
None of which rival the beauty and love that I have found within you.

This love and beauty cannot be purchased,
Nor can it be traded or sold
It is eternal my princess.
And if I would die tomorrow, know this . . .
I would carry it even to the grave
For not even death could separate my love for you.

When you are away
My aching heart cries out for passion
And it bleeds loneliness
For a second without you, is like a lifetime of blindness.

As we grow old together
Know this . . .
You will always have my heart
You will always feel my soul
When you are weak, I shall be strong
And I will always love you

Forever . . . . . . .

I Never Meant To Love You
by Michelle Morales

I never meant to love you,
It happened quite by chance.
I wanted just to be your friend,
Not to share a romance.
But something happened suddenly
That caused my love to grow.
I came to know a side of you
That caused me now to know.
The tender way you touch,
I pray will never end.
A miracle of circumstances,
My lover, my best friend.

What Am I Supposed To Do?
by Lostinlove

Tears drop down my face,
ready to run to a far off place.
I let my heart open to you,
so open, now what am I supposed to do?

I don't know what went wrong.
I thought your feelings were that strong.
Now, I wonder if it were ever true.
Now what am I supposed to do?

No letters, no calls, no goodbye.
All I want to do is lie down and cry.
With all my heart I loved you,
Now what am I supposed to do?

What happened, what changed your mind?
You were so caring and oh so kind.
This whole love thing was so new,
Now what am I supposed to do?

Now I learn to walk away,
No reason to want you to stay.
I know I should find someone new,
This I guess is what I am supposed to do.

If I Ever Had To Tell You
by Lisa Athersmith

If I ever had to tell you
Just how much I care
Then I think that I would start with
The fact that you are rare.

If I ever had to tell you
The way you make me feel
Then I think that I would start with
The fact your love is real

If I ever had to tell you
What's going on inside
Then I think that I would start with
The fact I can confide

If I ever had to tell you
Just what the future brings
Then I think that I would start with
The fact of wedding rings

I should never
By S.S.

I should never have to tell you
Exactly how I feel
I should never have to tell you
That my love is real

I should never have to remind you
Every time you come in the room
I should never have to say this
But I do love you

And though you may not believe it,
I know my feelings are true
Everything that I feel
Is felt when I touch you

Unrequited Love
by Sara Maxton

She says she doesn't love you, I know her words are true.
If I can see this simple truth, I wonder, why can't you?

You're wasting all your feelings on a girl who doesn't care.
Why are you still mourning her, when baby, I'm right here?
I want to ease your pain somehow, to calm your troubled soul,
but every time I start to ask, you just say, "There's a hole"

"There's a hole in my heart where she should be, the spot that she once filled."
The wrenching truth is, when you say that, a hole in MY heart is drilled.

I care about you sweetheart, so much more than you could know.
I just can't explain my heart to you when you still love her so.

A Tragic Tale
by S. S.
I once knew a girl
With the greenest of eyes
Who lived in the country
And loved a man till she died

He'd visit her daily
And always steal a kiss
But what he didn't know
Is that he took more than this

Then one night she fell victim
To his alluring embrace
The next morning he was gone
And didn't leave a trace

She woke up every morning
Waiting for him to come
Her whole body was yearning
Her whole body is now numb

He left her all alone that day
Her heart has been left churned
He got what he had wanted
And never again returned

I now know a girl
With the bluest of eyes
Who lives in the country
And loved a man so much that she died

Silent Torture
by Sara Maxton

I thought I loved you, I really did,
but now I know you don't love me back.

I never told you how I felt about you.
Now I'm glad I didn't.

I can't decide if my feelings have changed,
just because they're not returned.

I guess I've always known nothing could happen between us.
Why am I still hoping for what I know I can never have?

Do I enjoy the pain?

Caring about you is such sweet torture...
I can't seem to quite give it up.

I dream about you every night.
In my dreams, everything is alright... because you love me.

In the morning, I don't want to wake up,
because in reality, I'm not your precious treasure, you wouldn't risk your life for me, you
wouldn't hold me when I was afraid.

I know that I didn't make this poem rhyme.
That's because my broken heart has forgotten how.

I've written this all for you,
but you'll never know it's yours.

I can't say your name,
because it would break your heart to know how much I love you.

It would break your heart,
because you can never return what I feel for you

Someday, I will be able to give you up,
but until then, my silent torture continues.

Whispers of Love
by Gianella Ramirez

I whisper to the night
Hoping that it reaches you in time
Before you lay yourself to sleep
So once again you'll dream of me

I whisper softly to every star
To shine on you wherever you are
And to the Lord I pray to guide your way
As you wake up everyday

I whisper to the angels, as I think of you,
That I'm so glad you love me too
And, even though, I'm not by your side
I need you to know you are my light

I whisper to the shadows that hang on my walls
That in your arms I know I belong
And one day I'm sure you will be
Laying next to me before I sleep

These whispers of love that are meant for you
Will never reach the depths of my feelings
That run so true
But in the best way I pray you can feel
How I love you, my Sweetheart, and forever will

Replacement
By Jerikoh

Your passing holds no interest
For again I carry on
Empty on the inside
I await another dawn.

Endlessly searching for another,
A substitute at best.
Someone I pretend is you,
In hopes that I may rest.

Their arms offer no comfort,
No solace in their touch.
I pretend they all are you,
The one I miss so much.

Time
by S.S.

Sit underneath a willow tree
And hear its weeping cries
Sit underneath the stars at night
And watch a million go by

Watch the snow fall quietly
In the midst of December
Listen to the rain pound loudly
And watch a fire's glowing ember

Watch a single rose
Die and fade
Listen to the echoes
Of things that don't stay

Rise up early
To watch the sunrise
Take a walk by the sea
Look deep into someone's eyes

A million things that I can do
To pass the weary days by
But I just can't seem to stop thinking
of you
So I simply curl up and die...

Let Go
by S.S.

I listen to your heart beat rapidly
Why does it no longer happen with me?
And now when we lay next to eachother at night
Why don't I feel the need to hold you tight?

What is this feeling deep inside
That I feel I should no longer hide?
What is this feeling in my heart
That I should have realized right from the start?

I love you now and always will
And I want to be with you still.
But to make our lives easier, because our love can no longer be,
I need you to stop loving me.

The Choice
by S.S.

Two lovers and one that is loved
Must choose between love and lust
But to choose the one she really wants
She must decide who is what

The first-nice, sweet and tame
But is it wrong that she's never seen his face?
The second-Smart, handsome, funny, sweet and clever
The list could go on like this forever

So as it is clear on who is her pick
She can't let the first one go-and it makes her sick
So if she can't seem to put him behind her
The one that she picked as her love...is she still sure?

Best Friend
by renee
When I wake up in the morning
You're all I'm thinking of
When I go to sleep at night
You're the one I'm dreaming of

Since the first time I saw you
I knew I was in love
You make me heart beat faster
Everytime you look at me
When I dream about the future
You're the one I see

If I were to ever lose you
I don't know where my world would be
There would be no point in living
Cause you make my life complete

I still remember the day
You walked into my life
And one day I'm hoping
I'll walk out as your wife

There are so many reasons why I love you
And if I had forever I'd sit here and tell you why
Never would I hurt you
Or even make you cry

I have been hurt many times before
And you helped my heart to mend
I'll always remember you as my love, my sweetheart
My best friend.

My Best Friend
by S.S.

When the stars no longer shine bright
When my whole word is coming to an end
When there is darkness and no light
I just turn to my lover, my best friend

He's my companion and my strength
He's always there for me
Our love can't be measured by length
Together we'll always be

Love has never felt like this before
Especially when I'm in his arms
He has this certain allure
And some enticing charms

He kisses with passion
And never unsatisifies
He has his own idea of fashion
He'd never tell me a lie

So when the stars refuse to shine bright
And my whole world comes to an end
When there is darkness and no light
I'll just turn to my lover, my best friend

Just To Be With You...
by Scott Haley

I went to bed last night
Wishing on a star
Your light shines in my heart
No matter where you are
It's hard for me to say
My words are sometimes few
But baby all I want
Is just to be with you

Maybe it's the stars
Shining in the sky so bright
That has me writing these words
Of love to you tonight
Or maybe it's this feeling
That's deep inside my heart
Because I love you so much darling
And have right from the start

For the longest time
I walked this world alone
Never knowing where to turn
Lost without a home
Until you came along
Offering a love so true
I now know I was born
Just to be with you

I wonder if you know
What you do to me
You truly are a vision
And fill my eyes with beauty
Though we have had our troubles
No matter what, no matter when
That it's without a doubt
I'd do it all again

And now I understand
After all this time I know
That I was born on earth
To only love you so
Tonight before I sleep
I'll steal a look or two
For I've lived all my life
Just to be with you...

"Falling in love again"
by S.S.

Sit and watch the rain
Pound loudly on the pane
And wonder if they amount
To the tears you've cried while calling out his name

Watch the sky go by at night
And wish upon a star
But no matter how much you try
You'll always have a scar

Gaze at a blazing fire
Until the cinders begin to disintegrate
You'll fall in love again someday
You have to trust in fate

Lay down in a field of flowers
Watching the clouds go by
Let your lover hold you tightly
Because now you know the preciousness of time...

"Man in my Dreams"
by S.S.

I dream of a love so passionate and kind;
I dream of a man that I wish were mine

His eyes; a soft blue
Are like the sea after a storm
His cool touch make me feel anew
And always makes my heart warm

His body pressed against me,
Our eyes filled with desire
His lips brush against mine;
In my soul he starts a fire

I dream of a love so passionate and kind;
I dream of a man who will never be mine

"You're Everywhere To Me"
by S.S.

You say you know that something's wrong
As I listen to depressing songs
I refuse to look you in the eye
I won't ever let you see me cry

I'll never give you the satisfaction
Of knowing that you've won
In breaking me down to pieces
No longer able to be strong
Emotions taking me over
As you sit next to me
This much I know is true:
I never did get over you

Laying by the fire
My mind flooded with memories of him
Of this routine I tire
It's almost like a sin

Even when other guys are with me
I can't stop thinking of you
And I know it's not fair to them
That I'm still in love with him�

"I Taketh Thine Heart"
by Betty A. Sarabia

Ah! So endlessly, I seek ye out.
I haunt your dreams, have ye no doubt.
Tis I who give thee restless nights,
Thine thoughts be mine,
When thou turneth out the lights.

Thou giveth to me willingly
Whilst eyes art closed in slumber;
Thou protests art muffled, stifled,
By thine desires, thine hungers...

We make glorious rhythm, of this,
Be thou sure.
Neverending romance, so simple and pure.
Our minds and our bodies, atremble
As one;
Thou gently awaken when thy magic is done.

Thoust haunting memories of
Our quaking passion, be real.
My mission accomplished, thoust love
I did steal.
Whilst thou lay in bed dreaming,
I became one with thine soul.
For eternity thou art mine for
Without me,
Thou art no longer whole.

"A Cinderella Story"
by Rebecca Ashley

I smile as I see you greet me at the door
It has been a journey, one I have seen before

You meet, you kiss, you fall in love
You thank everyone in heaven above

But this time is different than times in the past
This time I have in you a friend that will forever last

The way your hands feels as it holds mine
Our friendship has stood the test of time

As fall approaches and Christmas is near
I have no worries and no fears

That we will be together for many years.

I love your heart, your warmth and charm
Now would there be any harm -

Harm in loving your best friend
I give my love to you my prince, love always Cinderella.

The End.

A Longing For You
by Jennifer Marie

Planted was a seed in my mind
That one day I would claim you as mine.
From where this seed came I do not know.

I know that I long to taste your tender kiss,
And to have my name whispered from your sweet lips.

I want to touch, taste and smell your skin-
To caress it softly, and take it all in.

Your love has lifted me to regions unknown,
Yet I am completely at home.

I love you more with each passing day-
I love you in every way.

I cannot wait for our lives to collide,
To hold you and awaken at your side.

I will be praying for the days to turn fast,
So again I may see my love, at last.

So, believe in your heart there is someone who cares,
Whose love for you will never wear,
Who'll adore you forever and unconditionally;
And that someone who loves you
Is me

I Love You Until Eternity
by Victor C. Delos Reyes

I love you until eternity

In everything you hope or do,
I'll encourage and believe in you,
for your every joy is my joy, too.
You will always have my love.
You don't have to keep your doubts inside,
there is nothing that you need to hide, for,
whatever feeling you confide.
You will always have my love.

No matter what, no matter where,
you can count on me and I'll be there,
To understand, to show I care.
You will always have my love.
I believe in you and I love you very much!

Loving you means many things to me.
It means knowing I have someone to rely on
and confide in and trust.
It means knowing I have someone who'll share in my laughter,
my cares, disappointments, and dreams.
But mostly loving you means
that I always have something to be happy about.
Because as long as I know I have you to love,
the world looks a whole lot better to me.

I love looking back to where we began,
seeing us as we were at the beginning,
then slowly leafing through the memories
we've made together to bring us to where
we are today...
I love anticipating the days ahead of us,
wondering what we'll find
in each other,
in ourselves,
before another year has slipped away...
But, best of all,
I love being with you
where we are today,
together writing the pages
we'll remember tomorrow.
I Love You With All My Heart

"In Your Eyes"
by Morgansweetie

I admit I have a little secret
Hidden deep within my heart
I feel so good when we're together
But incomplete when we're apart.

When you wrap your arms around me
Oh, the sensation feels so good
And when I am around you
I feel like I am finally understood.

Each time you graze my hand
Sends a wave of shivers through my spine
The subtle way your eyes gaze at me
Feels like you're making love to my mind.

But what I truly love the best
Is the faithful way you make me smile
And that you listen to what I say
Even though I do not talk real loud.

You care about the way I feel
I know you would hold me if I cried
I'll always know you care for me
Cause I can see it in your eyes.
