This is a book about love….but what is love necessarily? I constantly sit here and wonder exactly what it is. For I thought I loved before, but was it really that? Maybe, just maybe I was caught up in my emotions. Trying to wish something into existence which was never meant to be…. Or maybe, I could have been infatuated with a certain feature or characteristic that someone possessed… You know… they were attractive or they told that one joke that made me laugh the entire night. Or perhaps they had riches which I wanted to obtain… Who knows!?
The only thing I do know is that I believe that I have loved... And that is what is important. I will now take you through a journey of words and random thoughts. All about love, or maybe not even about love at all. This is a collection which I hope you enjoy. After all, love is like a rollercoaster or so they say. So sit back and enjoy the ride and welcome to Keyword: Love.
Roses
Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
I blush ever so slightly
When I look at you
Just like the sun
You brighten my day
You make me want for no more
For the rest of my days
Dear Heart
Dear Heart
I’m sorry for all that you have been through
And I’m also sorry for what may come in the future
But trust me
One day
Someone will come and repair your wounds and make you see that you are special
It’s just going to take some patience
Your time is coming
Be strong
Sometimes I look at all the happy couples surrounding me and I get so sad. But I know that one day, I will have that too. I have to keep pushing. I have to be patient. I truly believe it will happen. –Monica
Love Run Free
Kiss me ever so softly
Play with my hair
Your presence means a lot to me
I need it like I need air
Hold my hand even tighter
Don’t ever let me go
As our souls become intertwined
I can feel our love grow
Hold me closer to you
So tightly that I can barely breathe
Feel my heart beat faster
As you are standing next to me
Stay with me forever
You are all I need
I love you today and will love you tomorrow
Let our love run free
Sweet Love
Sweeter than a honeydew
Oh how I dream of you
Gently caress me and hold me tight
Never let go with all your might
Kiss me as I pull away
Make me realize I want to stay
Oh how I am in love with you
I can picture it all
Just me and you….
You hand me the world on a silver plate
You offer more
But I won’t take
You care about me
More than I care about myself
You give me so much love
Until you have none left
Forever you will be by my side
The love you have for me I can’t deny
Sweeter than a honeydew
Oh how my dreams have really come true
Just Kinda
Kinda like a melody
That plays over and over in my head
The sound of the sweet music
Could even reawaken the dead
It’s kinda like the sugar
That is in your favorite fruit
It dances on your tongue a while
Until you finally swallow that juice
It’s kinda just like that
Well that’s what my mother said
That feeling that just can’t go away
The feeling that you will try to get
Over and over again
A feeling you want so much
And quite frankly so do I
But what is this feeling exactly
It’s just kinda how I feel inside
Happiness Is You
Crystal clear skies
No clouds to dampen my day
The sun shall radiate down
And a smile will be on my face
To know you is to love you
And love you is what I did
And forever the sun will always shine
Because I will always have you near
Sometimes someone can make you so happy. Just being around them is all you need. This might be love and it might not be love….but what I do know is that it is something special indeed. – Monica
These Feelings
It’s when my heart starts to beat fast
And when eternity lasts forever
When I realize my true love for you
And how I hide it so clever
From the top of a mountain
I’ll confess my feelings
Because only I can hear
At the bottom of the sea
I’ll write your name in sand
Because only I can see
It’s when my heart starts to beat fast
And when time moves on so slow
That I think to myself, just maybe
I really don’t like you so
Was it your smile that caught my eye?
Or the quality of your heart?
Or maybe it was I, who fooled myself from the start
The Words to Say
How do I find the words to say
To let you know how I feel each day
When you are near I feel complete
When you are away I cannot sleep
How do I find the words to say
To let you know I don’t want you to go away
To let you know how fast my heart beats
Whenever we share an embrace and our two lips meet
How do I find the words to say
I can’t say I love you cause that is cliché
But the thoughts float in my mind all the time
And in my heart you are already mines
How do I find the words to say
For I don’t know how to say it any other way
I know that I’m happy when I am with you
And in my heart I know you feel the same way too
The Journey of The Heart
The heart has a way of finding itself
No matter the trials it goes through
At one point it can be bursting with li
fe
And at another point it is broken in two
The Journey of a heart is a sad one indeed
For it always has the possibility to get hurt
But usually the journey of a heart goes very far
Till it meets another heart and those two become one
And then that journey seems like it was worth it
It seems like those tears meant something indeed
For the rough road the heart took sometimes countless times
It ended in the greatest place it could be
To be loved is such a wonderful thing
That so many take for granted these days
Nothing ever comes easy in life
And love is one of those things
And sometimes when you waited for something
For as long as you can think
When you finally get what you are looking for
You will appreciate it above all things
At times, we place ourselves into situations knowing that there is a possibility to get hurt….but you KNOW; sometimes you just have to follow your heart despite the path it makes you take. every story in your life will not have a happy ending…but one story will….
To You
It has been months since I have seen your face
And I have told myself I would let go
But every time my mind wanders
You become the topic of all things I wish to know
I told myself I would forget you
And let you live your life
But it seems that I let go prematurely
And I didn’t even put up a fight
I think about all the times I was afraid
To tell you how I felt
I turned away when emotions came near
I refused to tell you how I felt
And now I find my mind wandering
And I pretend that I don’t know why
But I believe it is because of the feelings
I so desperately kept inside
It has been months since I have seen your face
And I have told myself I would let go
But every time my mind wanders
You become the topic of all things I wish to know
I hope you are very happy
I hope you are living a great life
I love you so much!!!
I just want you to be happy!
Even if I am not by your side
If you really loved someone, you would want them to be happy. if you really loved someone, you would let them go if you knew that it meant they would be happy in the long run. Sometimes we want to be with someone so bad that we forget about their happiness and only think of our own…but if we are doing this does it mean that we love them???... or are we just selfish?
My Heart Beats
My heart
My heart beats for you
Pounding with roaring intensity
Almost to the point where I have to try to catch my breath
Because my heart
Is beating
For you
My lungs don’t know what to do
I breathe in and out
Out and in
And still I can’t
I can’t catch my breathe
Overwhelmed by these emotions
I care but I say I don’t
I want you to leave but also stay
I am lost
Sometimes the happiest feeling in life is seeing those around you succeed…
Lost in you
Circulating these different feelings that I have
Making my body move
Giving me life
I want you to go out there and be better than I ever was
I may not know you but I want you to know that I care
Even if you think no one else does
I want you to stay with me in my thoughts but move forward in this world
I want you to conquer your dreams
I want you to pursue happiness
For my heart
It beats for you
And I really wish you the best
just because you never met someone doesn’t mean that you cannot feel for them. there is so much heartache in the world that you have to feel for others. there are so many who are lost and see no hope for their tomorrow…. sometimes I wish that I could motivate them so they could have the courage to push on.
If I Had a Million Wishes
If I had a million wishes
And all of them would come true
I would take all of my wishes
And wish for things for you
If I had a million wishes
And I could hold your hand
I would wish you could feel my love
And know that it is really there
When you want someone to never want for anything more… when you want someone to be truly and completely happy… when you want someone to know that they mean so much to you that you can’t even put it in words…. maybe that is when you finally kind of love someone….
You Light Up My Life
Just like a star
On the darkest night
You reach out your hand to me
And within my realm of darkness
You hear my heartfelt plea
I am consumed with fears
And one of these fears is being alone
So you wrap me in your warm embrace
To show that I always have a home
The light which shines within you
Is such a beautiful thing
Thanks for being my guide
Throughout my darkest days
Without Words
No words
Just actions
That is all that I need
The way you interact with me
Tells me so many things
The look in your eyes
That glimmer of hope
I see it so often
You want so much more
The way that you embrace me
You show me that you care
And if I were ever taken away
It would seem like you are losing your air
The way your mouth opens
When you are about to smile
The way that you giggle
The way you put your hands up and smile
The way you stand there and look
That stance that you have
I know how you are feeling
You didn’t even have to tell
I love the way we interact
The way we interact without words
A form of language that is foreign to others
And also misunderstood
When you finally know someone…. You know… like really know someone… you can tell exactly how they feel without even saying a word. That person can walk in the door and you automatically know by their gestures what type of mood they are in… I love when you know this about someone… Like I know them like the back of my hand…
