We’ve been together for so long,And I think the time is right,Something I just need to ask you girl,And I need to know tonight.So much has changed for me,Since you came into my life,I need you so much, you see,And I want you for my wife.So girl, will you marry me?As I’m down here on my knees,It’s with you that I want to be,I’m asking you baby, please.I never thought I’d find someone,As sweet and kind as you,Someone I can...

Don’t tell me that you need me, And I’m the best you’ve found, Because if you really needed me, You at least would come around. Don’t talk to me on the phone, Saying words I want to hear, And giving me more excuses, Why you can’t be with me here. Don’t tell me that you love me, And how much you really care, But when I really need you, I can’t find you anywhere. Actions speak louder than words, And for all your fancy talk,...

In the midst of polar winds,he searches.Too big...Not good enough.Too small...Not good enough.Too long, too flat, too heavy...Not good enough.One pebble on a beach of rocks,It's there.He'll find it.For it is not just a pebble,that he will present to her,It is a symbol...a pledge,A declaration of unreserved commitment,that borders on obsession.And when he finds the pebble,and she accepts it, and him with it,the border will...

Unlike any others there were two, Soft coats, brown eyes, slender waists and Claws so sharp that blood they always drew. Those in the jungle knew their tale, And so none crossed their path, 'cause the two were never known to fail. But as time would have it, It was knitting a bigger tale, And none were aware of it, Until the tale itself was to reveal, On a grander scale. Finally the time arrived and revealed, And it was on...

My love did sometimes wander,And my thoughts did often roam,From the one who held them dear,And gave my love a home.But I was young and restless,And my heart would long to play,Never thinking of the one I’d hurt,When my love would go astray.They say if you play with fire,You sometimes will get burned,And though the lessons were often hard,The lessons did get learned.For I know my heart belongs right here,With the one whos...

Of all the things we celebrate,There is one very special date,That special day when vows were said,Our special day when we were wed.Of you my love, I was so fond,To want to start a lasting bond,It was a sunny Saturday in May,That day we call our special day.I still recall your walk up the aisle,As you gave to me a secret smile,I could not help but feel so proud,The luckiest man in the crowd.As I stood and held your hand,I...

You're going through a lot right now,This truly is an ordeal,I can't begin to imagine your pain,Or how you really feel.I know how important your body is,And you're as beautiful as can be,And no matter what the future brings,You'll always be beautiful to me.I wish I could take away your pain,And make your body new,But I can only be there for you,To show my love for you.10-07-10.

When life hands you so much sorrow and pain,And takes so much with little to gain,You're like a train that somehow left the track,Can we ever get the good times back?Do you recall when the world was so new?And there seemed no limit to what we could do,Harking back to those simpler times,Of children's books and nursery rhymes.Can you remember those simple joys?Childhood dreams and children's toys,How did we ever lose our w...

I never meant to take you for granted,Because you're the best I've found,I truly cherish every moment,Of the times you are around.But now and then we say and do,Things we don't intend,My actions were just misconstrued,I never meant to offend.We all regret from time to time,Things we do and say,I just wish I could turn back time,And take your pain away.You mean so much more to me,Than my actions can ever show,I would never...

I have met so many women,Some with model looks.Others were so very bright,Had knowledge found in books.So many times a woman,Has stood out from the crowd.Hanging on my arm,She really made me proud.But over the years, as time has passed,I've come to understand.Most of those relationships,Did not work as planned.But now that I am older,And somewhat more mature.I have a greater understanding,Of what it takes to endure.And wh...

Oftentimes the many thoughts,That go on inside my head,So many thoughts unspoken,So much remains unsaid.And sometimes the most precious thoughts,Just never get put to word,The ones with the most meaning,Are the ones that are never heard.Because when someone means so much,I don't always have words to say,For feelings that run much deeper,Than mere words could ever convey.And just because words aren't often voiced,Doesn't m...

They say that time is the great thief,Robber of beauty and of looks, I have heard it spoken times before, Have read of it in books, But as the years go by with you, I realize more and more, You just get that much better, So much better than before. For what may have caught my eye, Was surely your pretty face, But over the years I have come to know, Your true beauty and inner grace, For your true beauty is not seen, Not wh...

Of all the girls I've held and kissed,Very few I've truly missed,Even less have held my heart,During the times we were apart,Rare are the ones that make me yearn,Or make my passions truly burn,Few are the ones that felt so right,As we held each other through the night,But after all is said and done,For me there can be only one,And of all my loves from the past,Only one can truly last,For, of all the girls that I once knew...

The snow falls gently on a winter's night,But inside by the fire I hold you tight,As the burning flames start to dance,My thoughts of you turn to romance,In the light of the evening fire's glow,How much I love you, you'll never know.Though it's cold outside, it's warm in here,And the one I love I'm holding near,Snow may fall but I don't mind the weather,As long as you and I can be together,The night is young and we've now...

I recall the evening as if it were yesterday, even though it's been over ten years. I stared down at the table and mindlessly picked at my food while my wife sat silently across from me. Nancy and I had been married almost 25 years at the time. We had been through so much together in those years, good times and bad. Of all that we had been through together, nothing was as tough as this. I just stared down at my plate. I r...
