The man I love loved me first,
loved me as I was
He looked into my eyes
Told me I was beautiful
He held my face in his hands
I faced down blushing
he brushed my hair off my face
made me look into his eyes
made me see that he meant every word
He told me that he will never leave me
He promised to always be there for me
my eyes questioned this
I wondered whether he was for real
I told him I had been hurt in the past
that I had been betrayed
He told me his love was deep
that he loved how i sang
he loved how i would talk to him about anything
He loved that i was open with him
he loved that i loved him
and that he wanted us to be together forever
i loved the prospect of being with him forever
so i thought about it a while
i loved how kind he was
how considerate
how loving and caring
how he would listen to me
hear my pain
wipe my tears
and teach me how to love
how could i say know to this man
i loved him so
so i said yes
and i have never looked back since
The man I love died for me
i couldn't say no.
John 15:13"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

...For the Love of you.....
If I loved you
I'd want to let the whole world know...
The feeling would not be containable
I'd want to let it out
I'd text you "I love you"
I'd even post it on Facebook
I wouldn't think its scandalous
It would just be the way i feel about you
I'd grab at the chance to hug you
to hold your hand when we are out
to look deep in your eyes and smile
to know the feeling is mutual
I'd kiss you goodmorning every day
good bye too
coz the soft touch of your lips left lingering
is a memory I'd want to hold
I'd hang out with you all the time
even when am with my friends
cozI'd want them to know you
to know why am crazy bout you
i'd write you cute poems like this one
to tell you how i feel about you
not to make you run
but let you know am in love with you......

...the rain
the rain to wash away the pain....
to wash the dust and make it gleam again...
to bloom the flowers and please the growers...
to refresh the ground and quench the thirst
to wet the ground the lovely sound
the rain the smell it is so sweet
the water drops fall to my feet
the shower, those of blessings
the air new scent, absorb the settings
let the rain pour let it fall
let it wash the earth all in all
let it cause the plants to grow tall
let it keep the sun off the wall
to wash the dust and make it gleam again...
to bloom the flowers and please the growers...
to refresh the ground and quench the thirst
to wet the ground the lovely sound
the rain the smell it is so sweet
the water drops fall to my feet
the shower, those of blessings
the air new scent, absorb the settings
let the rain pour let it fall
let it wash the earth all in all
let it cause the plants to grow tall
let it keep the sun off the wall

LOVE.......
Love isn’t always courteous. Don’t expect it to knock on your door. If it barges in welcome it all the same;
Love may not always gently sweep you off your feet. It may roughly pull the rug from under your feet - don’t be mad, let it sooth your sore behind;
Love may not always ask for your permission, it may cunningly and stealthily warm its way in to your heart. When it does don’t b surprised, pretend you were expecting it and make some room;
Love will not always beg you to take it in, it’s up to u to take chance, take your time but remember someone else may take the claim;
Love will not always be a smooth road, but remember there's two of you to bear the course;
Love may not fulfill your expectations. It is for u to tell the difference between fantasy and reality;
And as someone once told me - just because someone doesn’t love you in the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they’ve got;
Love is love and when we look beyond the uncertainty, it’s a beautiful thing.

....and the greatest of these is love.....
1 Corinthians 13
Love
1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Love, Faith, Hope.......
We are engrossed in each others eyes.
Cannot see the flaws nor any lies.
Conversations are filled with giggles and laughter.
As it is life cannot be any better.
Happy second month anniversary.
Aawwww You dint have to baby.
Yes I did because your my lady.
Life is sweet and dandy.
few months down the line we realize we are different.
What you like and what I want are different.
We start arguing because our opinions are different.
Our ideals, our lifestyle, our virtues all different.
Things are not as they were.
We were friends, we were at par.
Now the fights are a common occurrence.
Arguments our usual indulgence.
a new lease of life can be lived
the difference, likes and dislikes inter weaved
When you think you know someone and a different side is shown
just means there's more to learn and add to what's known
we don't have to find middle ground in everything
we are not raw material waiting for processing
we are whole individuals with different personalities
with you I know there are harmonious possibilities
When living as out natural selves
we express love's boundless and harmonious qualities
When we pick demands from the shelf
we risk corrupting our mentalities
Our possibilities are endless if we live from our true nature
not about getting our own way but of understanding with compassion
Timeless love is endless, creative and prolific - beautiful picture
Deep love is more than just romance or passion.
No one is perfect and we reap what we sow
We receive what we are willing to give
When conflict knocks may the love remain
When all is lost may love hold us together.......

...Its these things....
sometimes I sorry at the wrong time
then instead of saying thank you I whine,
am really sorry that's for sure
for not appreciating the time you took,
am grateful for all you've done
and its not just the food
its the rides to and fro
its the soft kisses in the morning
its the hugs in the evening
its the waiting for me to go up the stairs
then wave bye two more times
its the saying "boo" when i get home
its the heart melting smile
its the twinkle in your eye
its in the warmth of your arms
that I cant get enough of
I know am in love...
and its you am in love with
I don't want another day to go by
without you by my side....

My rainbow....
Beginning with red your passion
then orange your assertion
and yellow your compassion
color green your ambition
the blue streak your inclination
indigo our combination
finally violet my option
All the colors of the rainbow
combine to make one magical row
Beautiful you are one end to the other
Amaze me you do each day to the next
then orange your assertion
and yellow your compassion

Beautiful you are one end to the other
Amaze me you do each day to the next

The dynamite feeling...
The feeling that makes me soar to new height
The feeling that makes me know everything is alright
The feeling that makes me sleep smiling all night
The feeling that makes me know you are my knight
The feeling that makes me know not a fright
The feeling that makes me light up bright
The feeling that can't be described in black or white
The feeling that i will have all my life
The feeling that is love, the feeling that is dynamite
The feeling that makes me know everything is alright
The feeling that makes me sleep smiling all night
The feeling that makes me know you are my knight
The feeling that makes me know not a fright
The feeling that makes me light up bright
The feeling that can't be described in black or white
The feeling that i will have all my life
The feeling that is love, the feeling that is dynamite
