Lover

Lover


My passion for you burns hotter everyday,
My respect for you grows deeper in every way,
Amazing to see both the man I fell in love with
And the man you’ve become with me;
Even greater, the woman you’ve brought out in me.
I wish I could think bigger, even in angry times,
I wish we’d make more love, send the madness to sublime.
You’re here every minute, in thought, in my soul
I never thought or knew
You’d be the one to make me whole…
But you are… and you do
Lover, I’m mad about you.
My passion for you burns hotter everyday,
My respect for you grows deeper in every way,
Amazing to see both the man I fell in love with
And the man you’ve become with me;
Even greater, the woman you’ve brought out in me.

That he would be the man to make me want to keep growing a family and settle down. Surprised, I am... surrender.. I did... and now I just can't imagine it any other way. Life is indeed a strange journey. Thank you for reading and appreciating how strong this is for me--- it gives me hope, to

You know how sometimes you go back & read things you wrote and wonder... what the ? LOL
this piece is one of those for me today. I wish I could remember what mind-blowing drugs I must have been on...lol and I wish I knew how to find THIS feeling again!

[PoetOfSerendipity]

LOL.. the cool thing about capturing moods in poetry is that you know it DID come from somewhere inside.. and that gives hope that you may be there again.

Mike, you are the ULTIMATE OPTIMIST!! I luv it!

Elle, I read somewhere that you can step into the same river only once. You can never be the person you were back then.... but it doesn't mean you are any the less for that. Perhaps your feelings may not flow as strong now, but they are much deeper and richer.
