Less than a Year

Less than a Year

It all began back in September  
Less than a year, what a year to remember  
A hug on sight was definitely a must  
The hunger for love was a hunger for lust  

From the sparkle in my eyes to the passion in my soul  
From the words that were spoken, to the ones never told

From the beauty with the fire  
To the one with no desire  
Our purpose was fulfilled and now it is so  
The song came to an end, us and the video 

Don’t know if any wounds in time will mend  
But I’m glad to say, you’re still my friend 

Can time ever be measured by a moment in the heart? Can it ever learn to stand still for the times we are apart? Love had its time to shine, looking back from now to then With five loses up to date and zero yet to win.

Us

On the phone for hours was how it started  
Leaving the next day was when we parted  
Being out together was a time so great  
As we went out to eat on our first date

There were a few first times that were never done  
Something only we did with no other one  
Inside his world I found comfort and rest  
As I laid down in peace with my head on his chest  

No television, no phone, not distracted by another  
For the only thing we cared was to look at was each other  
To share with him a world unknown  
Was not done through insertion, yet the outer was shown 

Secretly spoken were our voices in bed  
As we both listened carefully to what was being said  
I prayed with him a detailed prayer of what I usually do  
He held my hand listening patiently  
Wondering if I would ever be through ...

Beauty and the Beast

Beauty and the Beast have an inner attraction  
It’s hard sometimes for the both of them because of the distractions

Beast is a man as fine as he wanna be  
Funny, loving, cheeky and stubborn  
Beast is what he is, a beast in every way  
Cause he displays his feelings as he goes throughout the day

Beauty is what she is, pretty, sexy, stubborn and confident  
She enjoys the simple pleasures of life and the time that is spent  

Beast is hungry for the love, he wants more and more  
Beauty eyes shine a glow when he walks through the door  
They’re starting to make use of every moment alone  
As they hug and embrace close in each other’s arms

Beauty has tried to get Beast outta her head  
But at night when she sleeps, Beast is there in her bed  

At times it is so complicated and at times they both feel stuck  <...

To my Quarterback

To my Quarterback, 

We are first round draft picks, starters, ready to get off the bench and begin a new season.  

We have tackled many problems in our lives and in our previous relationships, but we will not penalize each other from what happened in the past.  
Yes, there were some fouls in our past, some incomplete passes and some unnecessary roughness, but we don’t have to put our guards up for defense. This time around, we both are on offense.  

The difference this time is that God is our Coach. Therefore, there will be no blocked kicks, no onside kicks, no running offside, no personal fouls, no pass interference and no substitutes. 

You threw the perfect pass (your heart), and no one was around, which left me wide open to receive it. I caught it and secured it gracefully.  
I wasn’t going to fumble this one. I ran it in and that day we scored a touchdown. You sweeth...

Love is Love - So Does Much Matter

Love is Love -

I have heard people say, "I love you."
I've heard, I love you a lil, I love you a lot.
I've also heard, I love you too much, this much, so much, very much.

If someone says, I love you and someone says, I love you very much, does that make the person who only said, I love you, love mean any less than the one who said, "very" much?

Love is love, so does "much" matter?

Love

Is vision without seeing
Is hearing without talking
Is feeling without touching
Is longing without lusting
Is dreaming without sleeping
Is enduring without suffering
Is trusting without doubting
Is a reason without understanding
Is peace through circumstances
Is being alone but not lonely
Is patience with persistence
Is learning without leaving
Is how a moment makes a day

Love.. is when nothing is EVERYTHING!

Zinfandel

Zinfandel is a man to me who I see as being fine as wine
And at times when we talk words coming out my mouth
Are not the same words going through my mind

Ok, so he's married, what's that got to do with me
He's still a fine Zinfandel for all the world to see
He's a handsome, dark, chocolate with a very sexy voice
And if I catch him behind closed doors
Would I be strong and make the right choice

My arms want to hold him close, his wine I want to taste
But I have to stay focused when I see him in this place
My ears want to hear him speak, his scent I want to smell
And if we were to ever do this, I'm sure neither one would tell

To think of him the way I do, one would call it lust
My body is longing to be loved so myself alone I don't trust

As friends, we are really cool
But to be intimate I really don't need
Cause he's trying to do what's right
And in his marriag...

I Wish I had a Male Man

I wish I had a male man who was around my age, not married, not in a relationship, very understanding and willing to accept my imperfections.

I wish I had a male man where our communication would be top notch. Someone I could share my thoughts with, someone I could talk to throughout the day, anytime of the day.

I wish I had a male man, one who doesn't have to lie. What's the purpose of lying? Just be open and honest, because honesty to me is the way to be. Yeah, one who would be a man of his word. If he said he would call, he would call. If he said he would come, he would come. If he said he would do, he would do.

I wish I had a male man, someone who is not about no drama, no jealously. Yeah, someone who's not stuck up and stubborn, one who doesn't harbor hurt. The past is the past, I can't change his, I can't change mine.

I wish I had a male man that is patient, peaceful and playful. A man that's down to earth,...

Relationships

Relationships start off like oh so right
Making love damn near every single night
Dancing, the movies, going out bowling
Cracking so many jokes, I'm on the floor rolling
Rolling with smiles and oh such laughter
You were what I thought was my forever after
Everyone knew that it was just us two
The vibes and love between us just grew 
Grew so strong, but then it all went wrong

Here comes the nagging, the bickering and doubt
Along with the lies, the hanging and sleeping out
Who are these other girls calling yo phone
Dem' girls don't know, they better leave you alone
But I don't just blame them, it's yo fault too
Cause cheatin' with them was somethin' you chose to do

Arguing and fussing, raising yo voice and cussing
Words were said out of frustration
I took those words into consideration
What happened to the smiles, the good times and fun
What ha...

I Wonder

I wonder why you entered my world
And was gone before I knew it
For you brought me so much joy
That my heart still clings on to it
I wonder why you stopped calling
And didn't come around again
A love that was so good
Was it worth me losing a friend

I wonder if I did it over
Would I do it just the same
For the love I love only you bring out
And has me calling out your name

The simple pleasures of life were here
And oh how it felt so right
I think about your gentleness
And how you hold my body tight

I wonder why things have to change
And why I have to miss you
Each day without you I feel sadness
And each day I long to kiss you

I think of the words spoken through our eyes
With a big smile upon my face
I thank you for those treasured moments
Where we lived in our own place

No one...
