I arrived late in the afternoon. Placing my bag in our room, I walked out onto the veranda. The sky was a burst of beautiful colours - oranges, pinks and purples. Oh, what a beautiful sight. The redwood table outside was set for two with candles flickering all around. The aroma that filled the air like vanilla and raspberries smelled oh, so sweet. Hearing the clinking of glasses I turned and looked around, smiling at what...
I am just a simple girl who enjoys the simple pleasures Let it be listening to the rain hit on a tin roof or the smell of freshly cut grass, on a warm summers day. The way you take my hand softly in yours, as we walk along the beach, listening to the waves, as they softly caress the shore. Or maybe it's the way your eyes shine so bright when you look at me allowing them to be the windows to your soul. The way your smile w...
I close my eyes and begin thinking of you Longing to walk along the beach and dance in the waves, Or maybe lay on the sand, just holding hands. Views of the sunset, as we sit and eat dinner Each dreaming of later. You are my world, all the stars in the sky Opening my heart, as I truly love you Unconditionally for now and forever.
I was about to leave When you reached out grabbing my hand. Pulling me closer,Placing me on your lap.I looked in your eyes, As you wrapped your arms Around my waist. Resting my head on your shoulder, As you rest your head against mine. Enjoying a brief moment Before turning to ask.What can I do? A tear runs down your cheek, And you said "please stay and just hold me tight".
One of the first times we met We were at my favourite hangout You were talking and mucking around Generally having a good time. I was there helping my friend Spinning some tunes Smiling as I watched on. You came over, requested a tune Then asked me to dance And I accepted with a smile, Then we moved to the floor. Taking me in your arms Pulling me close as I got lost in your eyes Moving left and then right As we swayed to...
Never had I meet someone like you Instantly comfortable, chatting like old mates, Gentle by nature but still a guardian of your friends. Honest and genuine when Telling me stories that made me laugh and cry. Reading between the lines Always ready with a comforting hug Now and then sharing photos Giving me insight Even more detailed into you I will always Remember you with a big smile.
One of the best holidays I ever had Was when I was fifteen When I spent ten days on New Zealand's South Island. After landing in Christchurch And getting our luggage Then going to pick up the car We headed down south. Stopping at two glaciers Admiring them with awe They were spectacular, But had to continue down further I guess you'll agree. Spending the most time Based out of Queenstown, Where I went jet boating On the...
Sometimes in life you meet someone Out of nowhere, who makes you want to be a better person Under even the worst situations They make you laugh and feel special. Helping you cope Even allowing you to see the real them. Revealing deep private truths, the ones No one really likes to tell. Wandering lone wolf Or maybe the asshole is how you describe yourself. Lines like these aren't the truth For someone so kind and protecti...
Laying here, listening to my favourite song Realising that for me at least the words are so true. You came into my life and made it so much better. Although we live thousands of miles apart Separated by deserts and oceans We have slowly grown closer and closer Until becoming best friends. Each and every moment, I spend with you is precious And even when we disagreed I could never stay angry at you. You are so tender, cari...

It brings you much happiness And many dreams fulfilled.Happy Birthday, my friend!
With seven days to go To an event that may change my life forever. My mood is getting steadily worse. So much darker and hopeless, Feeling so scared and alone not sure of what I might do. I need too STOP! Take some deep breaths, Wipe away the tears think about the present only deal with the here and now Not the could or might be’s And have a little faith.
Listening to the rain hitting the tin roof As the aroma of sweet smelling candles fills the air Slowly twirling my hair up onto the top of my head clipping it there Then undoing the zip and removing my dress. Stepping into the bubble bath feeling the warm water Easing the pains, in my aching muscles. Sinking deeper as my fingers, Brush the bubbles over my skin.Smiling to myself as I hear the key in the door Then the door...

You will have your hands full.This is the time when you will need to swallow your prideAnd remember that there is no shame in asking for help. B...
Looking up at the moon and stars Always reminds me of you. Remembering conversations moments of fun and laughter. laying wrapped in your arms, in the back of your truck. You will always mean so much to me Because we were more than lovers We are best friends. You have stood by me And taught me so much. As you help me deal with my current events. Reminding me to have faith in myself No matter how low my moods get. You have...
