In and Out of Time

In And Out of Time

I swore I was in love , but it wasn't my time.

I pushed and I shoved to make love mine.

But love didn't want me because love

 was out of time.

I renounced my love, for the first time. I thought I had gotten over the hurt and the lies.

Because love didn't want me love

 was out of time.

I called on love again, to take me to the end of my time.  I shoved it a bullied it without thinking of the last time.

But love slammed the door in my face because love

 was out of time.

So this time I wait

 for love to come to me.

Not to push or to shove, to bully or to plea.

But for love to be

in time

to walk with me.

Ready for Love

Ready  for Love

I am ready for love

What does that mean?

I am ready to love again

My heart is open to

give & receive.

I am ready to experience

all

that love has to offer.

I am ready to share myself

with another.

I am ready to circle the globe

 in search of  all

the hope & joy that love

brings.

I am ready to wake early in the morning

just to experience the sunrise

with the one I love

Ready to experience true loves

kiss on my soul.

I am ready to lie awake at night

talking to the one who has captured

my heart, my soul  & my essence.

Love I am ready for you.

Come into my life.

Capture me, hold me, embrace me till

I break down and weep.

Show me all the passion of a

true and lasting love.

because I'm ready for love.

How can he?

How can he?

How can he touch my heart

and cast it aside

How can he say he loves

me and  speak so many lies

How does he affect my heart so deeply

And take from my love so freely

How can he listen

and say that he knows

Then pound my soul to the ground

with blow after blow

How can he say

he puts me first when I'm last

and crush what we

have like crushing a glass

How can he say its forever

 when he knows it won’t last

How does he do it

I just want to know

Because what he is

doing is hurting me so

Getting Late

Getting Late

it's getting late

and i don’t want to leave you

i can’t hang up the phone

because as i do i know

i will be all alone

it's getting late

i want you here

to cuddle and

hold me near

it's getting late

come and rescue

me from my fears

of being alone for

the rest of my years

it's getting late

i don’t know

what to do

because I

am truly missing

you

Do You Know Me?

Do You Know Me?

would you know me if I passed you on the street

would you even care

would you see me standing in the cold the rain and the heat wishing for a place to shelter

would it matter

do you know me as a person or a figment of your imagination do you see through me

stop

I was you

I had it all

but lost it as easy as it came not always because of me

but because of us all wanting more, caring less

so when you think you don’t know me

 look in the mirror because I am you

I was you I will be you again

or you just might be me
