Some poetry for your enjoyment :) ALWAYS AND FOREVER Author: Robert Small As I write, I'll sing this song for the greatest love I've ever known. To my heart, you have the only key, I beg of you, never set me free. I prayed to God for a love so true now, I, realize He already knew. In time my prayer WAS answered, the most wonderful woman HE BLESSED ME WITH YOU. What we share feels so right to say I love you every night. Wonderful moments shared, precious memories, still tell me you care. I see your shadow, as I lay myself to sleep. Dreams of you, oh so sweet in my heart, I will keep. Look into my heart, my life. Tell me, what do you see? can you feel the need, the want, as I to be your husband, you my wife. Much joy and happiness you've brought me. If I had life to live again, I'd want to with you, my lover, my best friend. Always and Forever, I'll love you till the end.

Love poems A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR Author: Anonymous In this world full of hurt and pain, I need someone who would help me through the rain. To comfort me when Im sad, Doing everything just to make me glad. In this world I need a Brave Knight, Who would never give up any fight. A knight who would dry away my tears, Telling me to overcome my fears. A knight who loves me for who I am inside, With him there's nothing more I need to hide. A person who will still be standing strong, Eventhough everything has gone wrong. I need someone who is willing to give me more, Someone I can call my Knight In Shining Armor. ANGEL DIVINE Author: Shawn Mikula Though star-blazed skies my mind contained, The solitude of night my heart concealed, Love's emotions were so fully restrained, Thus did I hide behind a self-made shield. And then you entered into my life, Bewildering feelings, dazed and confused, But you continued deeper like a knife, Until my hardness was thus subdued. What I never thought possible for me, You've done and that I'll always treasure, My heart burns fervent with love for thee, Our souls delight in each beyond all measure. And as you now place your sweet lips on mine, I know for certain I'm enraptured with an angel divine. A SINGLE ROSE OF LOVE Author: Stephen Kreska A Single rose of love A Single rose of devotion A Single wish upon my lips A Single thought of you A Single desire to be granted A Single moment of careless bliss A Single love never to be broken A Single rose for one last kiss. DANCE WITH ME TONIGHT Author: Kristi Day I want to dance with you for a life time Hold you close to my heart, Stop the hands of time Make the world give us a little more time To feel our bodies close swaying together To music that only we can hear, Letting it sweep us into Heaven Come, dance with me there We'll dance forever; never let go Hearts in tune hand to hand, Building love between us That we barely can stand Candles low no bright lights Our love will light the way, Come hold me close; dance with me Til the night breaks to day Feel our bodies pressed close As close as skin to skin, Open your heart to me baby Come on, let me in Fill my senses with your rush Let me taste your deep kiss, Hold me tightly to your heart Never have I felt like this Never will I feel it again For within your arms I've died, I've gone to heaven in your love These are happy tears I've cried Never have I been so loved Or felt so much love for anyone, Dance with me honey Until the night is done Dance with me until the world is done I can't resist your charms, Dance with me and hold me close Let me die within your arms Don't ever let me go Dancing with you is so right, I will never let you go Come....dance with me tonight FIRST LOVE Author: Vincent Paul Gonzales It was late Sunday night when we said good-bye I knew right then that my heart would cry... You felt so cold, and it hurt me so... I loved you so much, that I let you go... A love so true, it felt so sweet... For a year of my life, you swept me off my feet... I tried everyday, to remind you of my love... For I knew you were precious and sent from up above... I held you every moment... I held you tight... Praying you would always love me every day, and every night But time went on, as it tends to do... And with times passing, I fell even deeper for you... Your love grew tiresome... it tore me apart... And you broke every promise, when you broke my heart... I couldn’t stop crying, it hurt me so much... For I longed every moment to feel your gentle touch... I gaze into your eyes, to see only gray... there was no need for words... I knew what you had to say... I held on to you, in the depths of my heart... Regardless of how it tore me apart... My love still remains, through the betrayal you’ve done... Messing with my best friend, and having your fun... I stood by your side, though you didn’t want me... and I loved you so endlessly... I still love you, but time’s mended my heart... But never shall your memory part... And you will always have a special place within my heart... You will always be the first, who touched me so deep... And in my heart, will I always keep... memories of you and me... together for eternity... You taught me how to love and, darling... You will always be my first love. FOREVER MY LOVE WILL BE Author: Anthony Lane Ferguson When troubles bring you down and you don't know what to do, just look inside your heart and you'll know that I love you. Every one has a destiny to find, looking in your eyes I have found mine. You're all I ever wanted, you're all I'll ever need. I will be yours always, you will have my love for eternity.
