I'm Not Ashamed

I'm not ashamed to call you mine,
I'll scream it out til the end of time.
I'm not ashamed to say I love you,
Why some are I have no clue.

I'll never hide you from my life,
Or to others, even those who strife.
You will be known for who you are,
My loving girl, my shining star.

I'm not ashamed to hold your hand,
To stand beside you as your man.
I'm not ashamed to kiss your lips,
Or wrap my arms around your hips.

No matter who is here with us,
It's not just me, I have a plus.
No matter if they fuss or whine,
I'm not ashamed to call you mine.

I Fell In Love Today

I fell in love today
It hit me with a sudden shock,
For my heart was sealed tight
But suddenly there was a knock.

I cracked the door open
I was too weary to believe,
The emotions all rushed in
As a love I could perceive.

The feeling was overwhelming
I could not believe my eyes,
I was filled with happiness
That took over painful cries.

Then suddenly it left
The door slammed in my face,
My eyes shot wide open
As my heart begin to race.

Unreal Touch

When I think of you
I close my eyes and imagine
holding you in my arms.
I get so lost in my thought
that I feel your touch,
That unreal touch.

When I dream of you,
the dream is so real
that I never want to wake up.
But I do wake up and I realize
that touch was again,
an unreal touch.

How I long to feel your touch,
to hold you in my arms again.
But now everytime I feel your touch,
it's always that unreal touch.

So when I go to bed tonight,

Love Hanging By A Thread

I'm not yet in love
For it is hanging by a thread,
But soon it will break
And my love, it will shed

With it broken I will fall
Until I hit the ground,
Only then will I be running
Destination...lovebound.

I hope she understands
My feelings for her,
Will she accept them
I know not for sure.

But there it is hanging
By a thread so thin,
Hiding in the dark
So secret and dim.

Giving Up (The Last Script)

Long ago I wrote a script
About how I hate to write,
It is called A Cursed Gift
You will find it on this site.

About how I hate finding the words
That hurt me deep within my heart,
How I want this skill to end right now
Leave my hand, let us part.

How I hate to write about love
And how the pain follows near,
How I never want to find the words
The painful words I deathly fear.

I really don't want to love again
So I can avoid the following break,
I said I was tired of finding words
'In which I write as I shake.'

Memories

Memories of good times
Memories of bad times
Memories of our love
So many memories

Memories of us crying
Memories of us laughing
Memories of our commitment
So many memories

Memories of us hugging
Memories of us kissing
Memories of those late nights
So many memories

Memories of how we met
Memories of how you left
Memories of what you said
So many memories

Come Back To Me

Come back to me I beg of you,
Please don't let me go.
This pain is more than I can stand,
It hurts more than you know.

The love I have for you is real,
As real as real can be.
You know this because I still wait,
So long after you left me.

I kiss your picture every night,
Before I go to sleep.
As I lie there in my bed,
I then begin to weep.

I cry and cry and cannot stop.
I kiss your picture once again.
I hold it close to my heart,
Where once you had been.

A Broken Heart's Song

A broken heart's song,
Starts out slow.
A confusion of melodies,
With easy flow.

Keys of a piano,
Play a sad tune.
But nothing compared,
To what comes soon.

Strings of violins,
Add to the gloom.
The broken heart's song,
Fills the room.

Confusion fades,
The hurt settles in.
As a Theremin's cry,
Creeps under the skin.

My Angel Love (Trijan Refrain)

My angel love, My angel love,
Such beauty in my eyes,
You're sent to me from God above
For Heaven heard my cries.
He sent you with a love so pure
A divine soul that's sure to cure...
My broken heart
My broken heart
Is safe within your wings, secure.

My angel love, My angel love,
You take away the chains,
You help me break away free of
The heartaches and the pains.
You wrap me up and hold me tight
And pull me out into the light...
We fly away
We fly away
My angel love, this feels so right.

Love's Embrace

Filled with happiness
when I'm with you,
There are no days
that are sad and blue.

No doubt that you take me
to a better place,
And wrap me tight
in your love's embrace.

Your smile is filled
with warmness I see,
Your laughter says
you are happy with me.

Your heart is as soft
as velvet and lace,
Still pulling me into
your love's embrace.
