SANSUI - "MY THOUGHTS"

seperator

YOU CAME

You came into my life,
unannounced,
but not unwanted.
You came at a time that I needed you,
a tender smile,
a gentle touch,
another's company.
You came with understanding,
for you asked no questions.

With loving care
you healed my wounds,
and nursed me to health again.
Then you watched over me
til I regained my courage
to face the world again
with laughter and love.
So, please, feel free
to stay as long as you like.
For being with you
takes me to a different place,
a place called...
"love"

CAN I

Can I live without you,
now that I know you,
now that I know you exist?
Can I sleep at night
without seeing your smile,
now that I've seen it for real?
Can I be the same,
now that I've changed
with the gentle touch
of your hand?
Now that I'm divided
by my need for you,
without you,
can I be whole again?

DO YOU KNOW

Do you know how comfortable you are?
How easy it is
to slip into being with you?
How easy it is to love you?
How hard it is to be apart?
Loving you is as natural
as loving sunsets and rainbows.
For they are all simply beautiful.
Do you know how comfortable you are,
holding your hand,
and never wanting to let you go?
Sharing secrets and whispers.
Do you know
the depth of the feelings
i have for you?

EACH OF US

Each of us with our secret gifts,
magic potions, lovely notions,
waiting to be shared,
waiting to be aired.
Each of us, a half, a whole,
a mind, a soul,
a heart, and yet a part.
A better richer more
looking for the door, the key,
the you, the me, the we.
Growing day by day,
looking for the way to find
what I always dreamed
and never seen,
always tried and never been,
always thought, but never knew,
until at last, I discovered
the the gift
I always sought...
was you.

FIRST TIME

I'm not sure when
I first fell in love with you
The first time I met you
I realized you kind of liked me...too
I just remember thinking
of you more and more.
I remember wanting you to stay so badly
being so thrilled
at the thought of seeing you again.
I'm always worried how I'm going to sound,
wanting to be romantic
and impressive to the one I love so much.
How I get so excited... anxious and thrilled
just at the sound of your voice.
The love I give you today is the least
you can ever expect from me.
For as each day unfolds,
my love for you increases,
because everyday that I am
in love with you
is the greatest day of my life.
I guess maybe it's because
I just keep falling
so wonderfully in love with you
over and over again.

FRIEND

My smiles, my hopes,
my feelings, my soul,
my heart, my love,
and all my dreams,
are touched by the magic
of your love, your smell,
the perfume of your life,
intertwined with mine
in a silvery blend,
so that I can think of only
you,
precious lover,
partner,
..friend.

HUMAN HEART

Just how high
can the human heart rise,
in a world so full of uncaring eyes?
Where animals suffer and children die,
and people fight wars without knowing why?
Where alcohol and drugs, cause wasted lives,
and shelters are full of unwed mothers
and battered wives.
But, should the day come that man learns to care,
and no longer wants just to take, but also to share,
and he learns everything has the right to live,
and life is something he can take, but not give.
When he learns to approach life
with a heart full of love
for everything on earth and the heavens above.
When he learns to do these things
he will have opened the door
to knowing just how high
the human heart can soar.

LITTLE THINGS

You look in the mirror
at lines that were not there
yesterday,
and find a couple more hairs
turned gray.
With a nervous glance at me,
you wonder if
I notice "little things"
Later, as I lay beside you,
and sleep has closed your eyes,
I think of the way
you stroke my hair
and gently touch my face.
And how, before you hung my jacket,
you held it close to you.
I reach out and take
your hand,
and with all the love
the world has ever known,
I bring it to my lips.
For yes,
I notice
"little things"
