The hugs that we both always shared,

Small ways that you showed you cared.

The big smile that you always wore,

Whenever you walked through the door.

The way you'd tease then please,

Then beg me down to my knees.

The laughter that filled our world,

How you called me your "Sweet Girl."

Your outrageous tales for being late,

And all the missed meals we never ate.

The endless pet names you'd think of,

And the "tiniest parts" of being in love.

Small things that filled our day,

All the "sillies" you used to say.

The endless jokes you used to tell,

The parts of you only I knew well.

The little things are what I miss,

Like your hugs and your sweet kiss.

How you'd swing me around in thin air,

As though we both didn't have a care.

It's the little things that I long for,

Your lopsided smile that I adored.

How you used to gaze into my eyes,

Tease me, then tell me I was wise.

The dinners and dancing all night long,

How we shared our own favorite love song.

The moonlit walks on a sandy beach,

Your arms for which my arms still reach.

It's the little things I miss the most,

They still haunt me just like a ghost.

It's the little things that break my heart,

Like the fact that we're now apart.

The little things like kissing you awake,

How you'd laugh at me for my mistakes,

How we shared a world of our own,

Now that I am without you, and all alone....

It's the little things i miss the most........

I believe.....

I believe in miracles

and dreams come true

I believe in love

I believe in me and you.

I believe in wishing

on falling stars

And in this vast wonderful

Universe of ours.

I believe in hoping

and hanging on to hope forever

I believe that our love

will surely keep us together.

I believe in prayers

I pray endlessly

I believe in soul mates

I pray that your soul mate is me......

Love and Light,

I'm wishing and i'm dreaming dear.......

Wishing you were here with me again

Wishing you were loving me again

Wishing you were by my side again

Wishing you hadn't said good-bye.

Wishing you were hugging me again

Wishing you were teasing me again

Wishing you were lying with me again

Wishing your love hadn't died.

Wishing I could hold you close again

Wishing I could kiss your lips again

Wishing I could be your love again

Wishing I could still be yours.

Wishing I could start my life again

Wishing I could be your wife again

Wishing I could just begin again

Wishing I could say good-bye.

Wishing we were still in love again

Wishing we had just begun again

Wishing we were still close again

Wishing we were still a pair.

Wishing we could start anew again

Wishing we could say "I do" again

Wishing we could simply try again

Wishing we were were still in love.

If wishes really do come true

I will soon be back with you

If dreams are a reality

You will find your way to me.

If you truly dare to dream I hear

The answer to your dream appears

If you dream for what your heart requires

Your dreams will grant all your desires.

So I am wishing and I'm hoping dear

That soon I will own joy instead of tears

My wishes and my dreams are all of you

Wishing that you'll find your love's still true.

Daring to dream and wishing on the stars

Hoping somehow love will one day be ours

Praying that you realize that you love me still

Dreaming that, my love, you always will.

So on the wings of a prayer and a dream

And the wishes on every falling star I've seen

And on the power of our thoughts to come true

I'm assured that I will share my life with you.....

Love and Light,

Donna Wallace

Memories of a love once born - intertwining on the vine,

Blooming for a season, then slowly reaching it's decline.

Memories of two hearts that met and shared a life as one,

Memories of all the joy and laughter and days all filled with fun.

Memories of music, and dancing, and promises, and dreams...

Passion that consumed our souls, and the most intimate of things.

I remember counting the minutes till we were together once again,

Who in the world would have guessed that our love would ever end?

Sweet memories of days gone by, when we lived out all of our dreams,

Memories too of how they faded, and floated out with the morning breeze.

How could the years have changed us so, into what we've now become,

Both empty shells of who we were, when we fell head over heels in love.

We played innocently like two children frolicking in the nearby woods,

But we laughed, we ran, we fell we kissed like no children ever could.

Oh, all of our precious memories, they are all that's left behind,

A love we thought would last forever, now lives only in our minds....

Love ~ May it be yours tonight....

Love ~ If you've found it, hold it tight.....

Tonight ~ for the last time

Tonight I'll kiss and hold you close to me,

Pretending things are just as they should be.

Tonight I'll try to feel the love I once owned before,

The love once felt so deep is not felt anymore.

Tonight I'll give things one more chance, again,

Trying to recapture feelings I once felt back when.

When we first met and love first bloomed inside,

When we couldn't satiate our desires even if we tried.

Tonight I'll try to put the old love records on again,

And I'll try to fall as madly in love with you as I did then.

Tonight I'll close my eyes and dream I just met you,

Then I'll pray I return to the days when love was true.

Tonight I'll try to find the passion that peaked so long ago,

Breathe life into my passion and desire that I used to know.

Tonight I'll plan a romantic interlude like we once shared,

I'll remember our beginning and how much we both cared.

Tonight I'll give it one more try and try to save "you and me"

But if I fail in bringing back the past please then set me free.

Tonight, for the very last time, I will try everything that I can

To revive the love we used to share when our love first began.

Love and Light,

Donna Wallace

Dear John:

I thought you were the one.

I fell so in love with you.

I tried to resist, unable to .

I let myself fall in love with you.

Dear John:

For me, you were the one.

I loved everything about you .

Now I need to learn to do without you.

My heart breaks, my soul aches.

Dear John:

You made it clear to me today,

You never once loved me anyway.

You didn't love me in the least.

You said your love was deceased.

You never felt the heartstrings tug,

Although I swore I could hear the love.

You never thought me more than cheap,

While I felt our love was truly unique.

Dear John:

Thanks for telling me the truth you see,

Although, it's true, it's killing me.

My eyes can't stop the tears that fall,

And I don't wish to even live at all.

Dear John:

My hearts been broke so many times,

There's no reason and there's no rhyme.

I don't even know why my heart still beats,

It should have given up by now in defeat.

Dear John:

I'm still so stunned, and so confused,

I feel dirty, cheap, and completely used.

I need for God to come and spare my pain,

Dear John: Again, it seems, I loved in vain......

Dear John.......

Love and Light,

Always, when I.......

When I look into your eyes,

It's so easy for me to recognize.

The love that you feel for me,

More love than I have ever seen.

When I see your dancing eyes,

All at once I'm hypnotized.

They could dance to any tune,

Your eyes could fly me to the moon.

When I look at who you are,

You are the finest man, by far.

You tower among the men I see,

You surely are the man for me.

And when I see your dimpled cheeks,

I know that your whole package is unique.

I know that you could bring me happiness,

Make me a Heaven on Earth, I'd guess.

When I hear the way you whisper my name,

I just want to hear it whispered once again.

I love the way you sing, the way you talk,

I love the way you stroll, the way you walk.

All the many facets that I can see,

Makes me want you desperately.

The many gifts you're willing to share

Makes it so easy for me to care.

Please say that you will, one day, be mine,

And we'll learn to love each other, over time.

Please say that you are falling for me too,

For I am falling completely in love with you....

Love and Light,

Donna Wallace

If I didn't love you, I'd be safe from harm,

I wouldn't find myself drowning in your charm.

If I didn't love you I would not have let you in,

I would not give you the chance to hurt me,

Time and Time Again....

If I didn't love you I'd be all alone,

Perhaps I'd rent a house, but never own a home.

If I didn't love you I would never be as happy as I am,

If I didn't love you, I'd find myself beginning all again.

If I never loved you, I wouldn't ever cry,

If I never loved you I'd miss the lovelight in your eye.

If I didn't love you perhaps I'd grow old all alone,

You dear are the reason I am happy to be home.

If I never loved you I would have other men,

But if I didn't love you'd they'd be all wrong again.

I'd keep going through the gene pool often wondering why,

Just why I couldn't find someone to love me till I die.

If I never loved you, you'd hold no power over me,

But if I didn't love you I would fear for my destiny.

For you have made me happy as no man ever could,

You have loved me darling, as no other man ever would.....

Love and Light,

Donna

Our hearts met in mid air, and then joined hands,

Believing they were traveling in the same direction.

Eager to set out on an adventure, a chance to travel distant lands.

Our hearts collided gently fusing - resulting in perfection.

Our minds attracted to one another,

Our souls in touch down deep inside...

To one another - where dreams reside.

Your brain enticed me, your soul it beckoned,

your heart overflowed with tenderness,

Our dreams came first, our worries second,

Another chance for happiness.

I never dreamed it for a second,

I was most assuredly, unaware...

I still don’t know just when it happened,

I only know how much I care.

So many questions, needing answers,

Which road is right, which road is wrong?

Will we walk our road - along together,

Who writes the end, to what’s begun?

Should we risk it - should we chance it?

Dare to dream - dreams unrestrained.

Just how will our fate be determined,

Will our hearts win, or lose the game?

Love and Light,

Donna

This is not a healthy situation,

There’ll be no winner in the end.

How did we ever become lovers,

When we just started out as friends?

It’s a type of misery we’re sharing,

A piece of private Hell we own.

Two hearts that started out just caring,

Look how large that feeling's grown.

Do we decide to keep on playing,

A game we know we’ll never win.

We both should go, but we keep staying,

Who will leave first in the end?

We could be dreamers, could be doers,

Throw our caution to the wind.

We could be winners, could be losers,

But can we ever be just friends??

Love and Light,

Donna Wallace

House for sale...no longer a home....

I still own the house that we used to share,

I see your shadow, but you're never there.

I've rearranged the furniture and yet,

The way that it was I can't seem to forget.

I've taken down all the pictures of us,

And still I remember and endlessly fuss.

I still feel your presence behind every wall,

As if you were hiding, like a child, from it all.

I still see you when day turns to dusk,

"Just my imaginings," I say in disgust.

Even after all the years in between,

You're still a part of all of my dreams.

Even though you haven't ever come home,

My heart it still races when I hear the phone.

I've re-painted each room, and still they remain,

A reminder as if they all whisper your name.

My roommates are still the dog and the cat,

Still confused, they wonder where you are at.

The neighbors have moved, life has moved on,

Except for my life, it hasn't moved since you've gone.

I still hold the same job, at still the same pay,

Nothing much has changed since you've been away.

I still only have my one friend from before,

I'm not into company very much anymore.

I'm not into living, or loving, or life,

Since you decided to not be my wife.

I've tried to start over but I don't have the will,

But I own every memory of our marriage still.

I can still picture you pouting just like a child,

I still see your dimples and the way that you smiled.

I still hear your laughter, and your sweet melody,

I just can't understand why you ever left me.

They tell me I'm mourning and that I still grieve,

But I don't understand just why did you leave?

I hear that you're happy and married again,

And still I repeat, "Just why did it end?"

I'll never recover from the shock and surprise,

From the lack of love that I saw in your eyes.

I'll never be free from my memories of you,

Memories prevent me from saying adieu.

Please call me, or stop by, just one more time,

Maybe I can convince you to once more be mine.

Let your thoughts turn to the good times we shared,

The way that we loved, and how much we cared.

How could they have suddenly just disappeared,

Our feelings so strong when we both lived here.

What could have caused such a changing of heart,

How you feel for me now, compared to the start.

Did I tell you that I've put our house up for sale,

It holds too many memories, tells too many tales.

Perhaps you could stop by before it is sold,

We'll just talk, dear, and see how things unfold.

Perhaps if you visit the home we once shared,

You'd remember my love and how much I cared.

My love hasn't lessened, I will always love you,

And I pray that you'll once again tell me, "I do."

Love and Light,

Donna Wallace
