To be Free

Standing here in the rain
Are those tears or just more pain
A soul mate love will always last
Even apart the bond will never pass
I can’t move on when your heart won’t let go
We walked away to meet another day
Our time has come to an end
Then why won’t our hearts begin to mend
Why does your heart still hold on
When our love went so wrong
Let me go so I can move on
For another time or another life
Our hearts and souls will still hold tight
Let me be and set me free.

I loved you before, I loved you

She was just a dream one day. So vivid that I knew I would love her before I even knew her. Every detail of her would be perfect, the curve of her face, the softness of her smile, and even the brightness of her eyes. The tone of her voice would be soft like the summer wind. She held me with a tender embrace that no one could ever replace.

Though out my life I looked for the women I called “Bright Eyes” from my dream. I knew she was out there, somewhere, waiting for me to find. The days and years flew by and I stopped looking for her, remembering she was only a dream, a young man’s wishful fantasy.

A simple moment, an opening of a door, a twist of fate, and there she stood like so many times before. It was her, the one I had been waiting for. I knew from the moment I saw her, she was the one from my dream. I tried to speak but the words would not come, all I could do is stand there in disbelief.

Time moved on and so did we, maybe we were not meant to be. I will remember that fateful day of our first kiss. Our short lived lives were full of bliss. The laughter, the smiles, and even the tears will never be replaced by the passing years.

So today I will close my eyes, try not to cry, make a wish and say goodbye. Someday I hope to meet again, because….I loved you before, I loved you.

A tear drop

I had a dream last night and it seemed so real. I was standing at the train station watching you board a train. This time it was different from all the other times you left me, you would not be coming back. A sense of fear and pain over whelmed me, as if I knew something terrible was about to happen. I tried to yell, then even louder, but we all know that in dreams no one ever hears you scream. I begged and pleaded you not to go, but you never looked at me. As the train pulled away I stood there knowing that this moment would be our last. I tried not to cry, I fought the urge so gallantly, but a single tear fell down my cheek. I know it was only a dream but it all seemed so real. I awoke to discover a single tear drop on my pillow. It was only a dream?

Trying to Let Go

It doesn't matter who I offended, just the fact that someone didn't want me expressing my feelings (for her). There are always those who feel the need to be bitter and angry. They truly only know half of the story and that is probably tainted with half truths anyway. I have no need to either defend myself or explain my side of the story to them. Many things that happen in our lives with those that we love are never shared with those around us. Some of the good times and the bad times are things we keep to ourselves. Mostly to preserve our hearts and memories. I will not lower myself to respond to their insults and accusations.

It has been over a year and I needed a way to find a way to let go. Writing was the only way that gave me any comfort. I didn’t think I was hurting anyone. I thought by sharing loving and caring thoughts I had for her, would be a way everyone could know how much I did and still love her. Trying to work out my feelings of guilt and sorrow should not be something I need to apologize for.

Sweethearts Day

Valentine’s Day is the day set aside for lovers. It is the day you to tell the one you love how much you “do” love them. A day to celebrate and enjoy the true meaning of love. I believed that if you really love the one you’re with then every day should be Valentine’s Day. Take time each day to look deeply into their eyes and tell them you love them. Thank the stars for putting them into your life. Whatever it is about them that make your toes curl let them know. Time passes by too fast and life will get in the way and before you know it you will be standing there by yourself, wishing you had told them how much you do love them.
