What Separates you? (Poem)
What is your identity?
What is your novelty?
What Separates you?
From everyone else,
What makes you different,
As your name spells,
Do you have the courgae,
To be different & on your own,
Are you bold enough,
Like all those wonderful people,
Who have so brilliantly shone,
Through time,
Is your resolve so powerful,
That mountains you can shake,
Can you always & always,
Dwell an unwavering faith,,
Do you dream bigger,
Do you aim higher,
Do you stand up,
To your own free will,
Do you believe firmly,
That the entire world's goodwill,
Is for you,
Are you extraordinary enough,
Inspired by Love,
To be driven by Love,
Motivated for your Love,
Is your passion so wonderful,
That even Heavens above,
Bow before you,
For a Love,so true,
Do you have the strength,
To voyage on a journey,
To experience Life's everything,
Have you set your soul free,
& Rid yourself of any ambiguity,
Is your mind calm & serene,
Do you feel that inner peace, that inner joy,
Flowing harmoniously through you,
Do you appreciate true beauty,
And understand,
The innocence of her Love,
Do you feel happiness,
In everything you do,
Are you indeed,so unforgettable, my friend?

My Brown Eyed Girl
This is one of my most favorite songs.... Especially the Green Day version of it.... Connects everytime I listen to it. :)
Hey where did we go,
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow,
Playin' a new game,
Laughing and a running hey, hey
Skipping and a jumping
In the misty morning fog with
Our hearts a thumpin' and you
My brown eyed girl,
You my brown eyed girl.
Whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow
Going down the old mine
With a transistor radio
Standing in the sunlight laughing,
Hiding behind a rainbow's wall,
Slipping and sliding
All along the water fall, with you
My brown eyed girl,
You my brown eyed girl.
Do you remember when we used to sing,
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
So hard to find my way,
Now that I'm all on my own.
I saw you just the other day,
My how you have grown,
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometime I'm overcome thinking 'bout
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl
You my brown eyed girl
Do you remember when we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da.

Author: David Romano.
| I've dreamed many dreams that never came true, If tomorrow starts without me, And I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes All filled with tears for me; I wish so much you wouldn't cry The way you did today, While thinking of the many things, We didn't get to say. I know how much you love me, As much as I love you, And each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too; But when tomorrow starts without me, Please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name, And took me by the hand, And said my place was ready, In heaven far above, And that I'd have to leave behind All those I dearly love. But as I turned to walk away, A tear fell from my eye For all my life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die. I had so much to live for, So much left yet to do, It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you. |
| |
| I thought of all the yesterdays, The good ones and the bad, The thought of all the love we shared, And all the fun we had. If I could relive yesterday, Just even for a while, I'd say good-bye and kiss you And maybe see you smile. But then I fully realized, That this could never be, For emptiness and memories, Would take the place of me. And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, My heart was filled with sorrow. But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home. When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne, He said, "This is eternity, And all I've promised you." Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts anew. I promise no tomorrow, But today will always last, And since each day's the same way There's no longing for the past. You have been so faithful, So trusting and so true. Though there were times You did some things You knew you shouldn't do. But you have been forgiven And now at last you're free. So won't you come and take my hand And share my life with me? So when tomorrow starts without me, Don't think we're far apart, For every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart. |

I love you...
This poem is a short and simple poem but it is one of my favorites.
Another day,
Waiting for you,
My life,though short,
Is only for you,
Here's a promise,
I will never break,
For you is my heart,
I Love you,No matter what it takes,
Every breath in my heart,
Spells your name,everytime,
And I can't help drowning,
In your Love, So divine,
Hold my hand,
Let us embrace,
Let us fly to the heavens,
A beautiful place.

How do I tell...
Just a little sad,
Just a little heartbroken,
Regretting now am I,
Are words left unspoken,
I could have told her,
How this heart beats with her name,
How sorry I am,
For my every mistake,so lame,
That I realized, I was moving too fast,
& Also do I realize now,
That my actions left her aghast,
It takes time for me to learn,
To learn how others feel,
What their hearts speak,
And their emotions deep,
But seeing her deaprt,all my mistake,
A pain that will never heal,
Morning after Morning, I regret,
This foolishness, This childishness,
I can never forget,
Everything I did, distanced her away from me,
And this fragile heart, kept getting lonely,
Things could have been different,
If I had tried,
They could have been million times better,
Than those tears who both cried,
Everything out of this innocent heart,
I shouldn't have told her,
Something I should have held back,
To speak on a different occasion,
But my hastiness gave way,
To every emotion,
Sweet & Sour,
& A void surrounds me,
[Fill in the blanks... :) ]
