Falling

This is a poem from my book, My Heart..my love, my loss, my inspiration. I was perusing blogs and ran across one that talked about deciding not to fall in love and being alone by choice... so I was inspired to share this piece with my blogspot people...

I want to fall, but I can't
head over heels, but I ain't
to shower you with my love
like a sweet summer's rain from above
to give you my all, my everything
loving you can make my heart sing
but here's the thing...
I'm not sure of where you stand...
AND
not knowing hinders my fall
I, too, want Your all
I want to know
can you catch me?
hold me?
protect me?
love me?
cause me to grow?
that is what good love will do
in case you didn't know
and since your position I cannot fully perceive
to the young and foolish I will leave
the falling...

I Cry

Bitter tears I cry

the kind that sting my eyes

but again, this is no surprise

again, I fell; I believed the lies.

I examine myself and ask why?

when all I do is try

love still seems to die

the bond we have begins to untie.

On the wings of love I wish to fly

from a place of bliss I want to sigh

but when I believe happiness is nigh

it comes and passes me by.

So, bitter tears I cry

the kind that sting my eyes

again, this is no surprise

but guess what, I won't die.

someone will come by

my eyes he'll dry

and I will give love another try.

Starting Over

J

We begin again

start fresh and new

you and me...

me and you

making changes

hoping to rearrange

this love we have

forgiving and forgetting

the past

figuring out

how to make this last

because letting go isnt an option

at least not one we want to take

the decisions we make

from this day forward

will only propel us toward

our destiny

forgetting those things behind

we press forth

move ahead

lead by the love we have

for each other

we begin again
