Mail Chantal Sometimes I wish... by Adriana Sometimes i wish you would have told me why. You showed me so much love through your eyes. I would've loved you with my heart and soul if you would've let me. You walked away like none of it mattered but your eyes told me different. I would've loved you like no other. I can't handle the pain and emptiness i feel in my heart. I thought it would've been easier to get over you, But you've branded your mark on my heart and soul. I didn't know you very long, but in my heart i felt love. Mail Adriana I hate you by Jackie McVaugh I hate your smile and your painful eyes I hate the way you make me cry and that you never said good-bye I hate how my eyes are drawn to you, you were the worst thing I could do I hate the way you say my name and I hate the way that we're the same I hate how you turned my soul to ice and played me like a pair of dice I hate the way you hate me too, but what I hate most is how I love you!!! You should know Jackie McVaugh You begged and pleaded said my friendship was needed but so dumbly I did not relent now my heart is slowly bent I see you there all alone it makes my heart moan and groan I hear rumors and lies that make me want to cry they say you never meant it but you would not admit now I wonder whywas it all a big lie? I wish now I had forgiven you and we could have started a friendship anew but I know deep in my heart we would still be far apart see I know you all to well and there’s one thing I can tell you know as well as I do we will never again be two. Mail Jackie In Memory of Raimund Harmstorf by Nina Love beyond Soft sand wraps around her feet As she stands staring at the ocean The waves and their gentle beat Her heart filled with emotion Of a lost love she never knew Her thoughts drift gentle into the night Two years too late she wished she knew sooner About the man who lived and died Death came like a piano tuner And played the song of love she never knew. His life like prints in the sand Vanished-carried out with the waves First so visible upon the land Now gone forever amongst the graves No prints left of the man she never knew Oh, she loved watching him Her eyes studying his every move Now her thoughts sad and grim She knows no one would approve Of her deep wish to die to be with him Alone the woman stands at the shore Staring out to sea All that was there before Her lost love never yet to be. Mail Nina Romance Reflection by John J Cross It's secrets flow with time and tender.. Bursting forth for no surrender.. Our moods they merge in willfull affection.. Steadily claiming our thought direction... A trifling touch a moment of pause... Gazing eyes forever draws... We rise together we decend the same... Whispering want without a name... No world surrounds us except us two... Heart and soul a crystal blue... A familiar melody that we both hear... A resounding note thats brings us near... We chance a word we keep in time... Forever drinking our love sublime... At distance we're lonely together we're one... This... This I know... A love not undone. Mail John The Dream by Jennifer Bell He came to me one night, whilst I lay in my bed, He whispered loving things to me, though not a word was said. His love was all around, and filled that tiny space, my heart was filled with Joy, as I dreamed his lovely face. Oh his spirit came to me in the still of night came to me from heaven on a wondrous flight a visit from an angel,shining like a star looking down with love,travelling from afar I didn't hear his words, but I felt them in my heart, he didnt really want to leave, but knew he had to part. His time on earth was over,it was now his time to fly so he spread his wings and soared, high up into the sky. Oh his spirit came to me in the still of night came to me from heaven on a wondrous flight a visit from an angel,shining like a star looking down with love,travelling from afar He came to me that night, not so long ago. I was missing him so much, and wanted him to know and he heard my call, and answered with his love an angel came from heaven,down from that land above Oh his spirit came to me late that August night came down to me from heaven, filled me with his light telling me don't worry , he was still around love was what he came for, and love was what he found TEARS ON THE MOUNTAIN, TRILOGY by Jennifer Bell Remember when Life was breezy, and we were running free Hiking in the mountains, the sun, and you and me Nothing could divide us, you were my best friend Even after death, this love could never end I built for you this cabin, somewhere to call home with a garden full of flowers, that you could call your own and a view that's picture perfect, from winter through to Spring Twas right here on this wooden porch, I gave your wedding ring Now we're getting older and I'm not sure what's in store But life has been just perfect, and I couldn't love you more One day when I'm old and grey ,and find I can't go on Look for me in the wind and rain and every Sparrows song I may be gone in body, but my spirit will not die I will be watching over you, I'll hear your every sigh So let us carry on, and enjoy this wedded bliss come and sit out on the porch, and give your man a kiss Look out on the hills , and caress the drizzling rain for I love you like the first time, and I know you feel the same... Mail Jennifer Freedom by Chaos "Beautiful......" The heavens have fallen, And the Earth is rising In the paradise, which was dyed in blood Everything is being lost Light and Darkness Everything is forgotten The existance is being erased You have been living in this arms But now, those eyes..... Throwing away everything Even though I have longed for this day.... Even though that I am finally set free from all My foolish-self.... Without saying "farewell" I stare at you, being erased Mail Chaos It's the middle of the night by Mai I'm still not sleepy, not quite I keep thinking about you and everything I'm going through I'm having a hard time Of getting you off my mind guess I have to face the truth that I've fallen in love with you I didn't intend for this to happen but when I'm with you I feel I'm in heaven This is something I tried to deny but it gets even harder with each day that goes by I long for you to call my name I know you'd think this is insane but just seeing you is enough for me and for the rest of my day to be happy I really don't know you that well your favorite things I really couldn't tell I just heard stuff about you from friends so I don't know where the truth begins and where it ends I don't know what it is in you that up to now I can't forget you I don't even know if you love me too but then there's nothing really I could do A chance was all I wished for for me to get to know you more but you didn't give me a chance not even once I finally made a decision that I better stop this illusion that somehow you'll fall in love with me too because it will never really come true. What you really mean to me by Edward Santiago When I’m not with you I can’t think, Worried about my heart so it won’t shrink. With you I only will be, Humming around you like a bumblebee. If you think this is too good to be true, Listen to heart because mine belongs to you. Maybe you have been taken for granted, That was the past, the future looks enchanted. It will be fun, sad and sorrowed, Be careful with the heart you just borrowed. When I think of you my heart trembles, Because what I fell for you it is so nimble. What else can I tell to a beautiful thing, Oh, that’s right you make my heart sing. That’s why when you are near by, I fell those dam butterflies. It’s amazing how time flies by, Then I will see you later, Then bye bye. Mail Edward Memories of the Universe by Dan Oneill Memories seen through the rain. Distorted now, reflected in all the misery that came before. Unnecessary feelings of courage and hope. Surfacing together, haunting my life for one last time. Affirming fears of my (human) being. Predestined for you to feel my light, shinning in your universe. Mail Dan Winter my love by Clumsyfish Winter, my love We meet in strange places Befriend your cold I sense you like an ice cube In my hand I understand... All of my friends Ask God to take away Their hearts-- They say It hurts too much with every One more yard One more false start This is not the place That was not her face This is not the place And the echoes are draining... What reeks of brain? Was someone self-indulgent In this grass? Was yellow as the shade this Month strives for Alive no more All the echoing is in my head It wants me dead It wants me... dead... Winter, my love You've melted every glance It's only time That makes you change into a Puddle, weak And flowing down This is how we break This is how we wake This is how we break But we're already broken... Mail Clumsyfish Soul Friend (dedicated to Jo, may God always bless me with your presence) by Kathie Bishop At no time in my life Have I ever felt this way. So in tune with another. No one has ever come close. To comparing to the joy I feel When I hear your voice. Or when I see your Words on my screen. And, my God, that quick Sinking of the heart When you have to go. Leaves heaviness beyond description. And the hugs - that incredible Warm feeling will stay with me forever. To feel, I only have to Close my eyes and I remember. I believe I've finally found the words That best describe how I feel. Soul Friend - 'cause no one has ever reached Deep inside my heart and soul like you have. No one ever will. I have told you things that I don't even tell myself. And this is so easy to do. I don't even think twice about it. And I don't say this to make You feel sad or guilty. But things in your life (and in mine) May get in the way of saying hi. I believe that this only serves To make the bond stronger and Our moments together more special. At least this is true for me. I really do believe we were Friends before in another life. And you know what my dear, sweet friend? I'm positive I will see you in our next one. So my soul friend I hope you know You're stuck with me for a very long time. And when you have to move on in life know You will take a part of my soul with you Until we meet up with each other again. Mail Kathie Aura by Black Sky As waves wreak havoc on stormy seas As mist moves softly through the trees As day comes slowly to her knees Hear the soft yet mournful pleas ~Aura~ As fallen hopes begin to rise The sun blocked out by stormy skies A trust destroyed by cruel lies Find mystery in piercing eyes As one thing takes another's place As tears are seen on someone's face Things disappear without a trace Be drawn into a sweet embrace Sing with your heart again Dance once more Hear the music As never before Mail Black Sky Goodbye by Justin Parker Goodbye, you see its time for me to die It’s really been fun living in hell And I’m sure it’s beginning to tell; People are already saying God bless, Its time this weary head was put to rest. What is as versatile as a University? Where the social life is a necessity And the girls are all after the looks Rather than what you can do with the books But does the intention ever justify the end. Still there are good things with life Shame they are all double edged knifes For the weapon is not fit as a sword, For all we do with vast sums, is hoard Money it seems will drive us to death. But what are our best days I am told It is question that is not quite so bold For it is something that we all hold the key Before that is when we cease to see School and childhood is the answer. We choose to forget those days As it was all just a dizzy haze It is childish and stupid we are told But it’s the most valuable that we hold Reminding ourselves of what was in front. People you see, always see behind From figures to stats which seem to bind. Important we feel they may be But it’s more relaxing just to sip tea And try to grasp what our future holds. Goodbye, you see its time for me to die For what I’ve said could all be a lie But if that was true then why do I feel dread As I near my final challenge in facing death Does the intention ever justify the end. Mail Justin Parker I cant express... by Bruce Anthony I can't express my sorrow Or my pain Neither words nor actions can show my love for you The fire that burned inside of me Is now gone Only darkness remains Emptiness consumes me to the fullest Just remember that you are my true love And my love for you will never end..... Mail Bruce I am thinking... by Moni I am thinking about you pretty much, As soon as i wake up till the night falls down You are in my mind for one good reason.. and that reason is so true.. I am in love with you baaaadly and you don´t have a clue.. When i am out sitting in a cafe.. people just pass I dont even notice.. I am thinking if you were here, what you would say. Or just glanze with your eyes and take my breath away. Its hardest at nights because when i fall asleep i dreamed of you beside me, i was hugging you but i woke up and realized that it was only in my head and there i was staring at the celing in my empty bed. I'm in love with you so much what can i do? somebody i need help from an psychiatrist to get thru because love really hurts .i mean without you!!! I will always think about you wherever i may go And if one day i no longer hear from you. i will search to the end of the world for your love till the day i go away... Mail Moni First love by Nadieja It’s amazing how you came to my life It’s unbelievable how you touched my heart It’s unforgettable the time we spent together And it’s unforgivable for leaving me in tears and go People say first love is unforgettable I didn’t know, I didn’t care and I didn’t understand Until the time you came to my world Giving me all the love but left me for another I still do not know the reason, Why you left me, why you said that You don’t love me any more Why our love had to end this way I didn’t know I would loose you I didn’t know my love for you Would become a nightmare, Wake me up every night just to find that you have gone My love for you is immeasurable Neither you nor me to be blamed For the misery that I undergo, but… It’s just fate, just my unlucky fate God bless you my love May you have all the happiness and wealth in the world But remember you were my first love And still you are my first love Even though you do not need me or love me anymore I still love you, I still care for you I will try to smile hiding my tears And say “I’m happy for you” Mail Nadieja |
