A WARRIOR IS YOU

When your spirits is down you have no time to frown, your warmth and grace you cannot hide You laughs, helps comfort, and hide your own pain. You are blessed with the gift of giving and a willingness to help others, you give best to your love ones.

You meet a need that no one else can fills; You're always kind and gentle. You have plenty of time to listen, to encourage, to love and to care; when others are too busy, you're always there. 'Wonderful is your frame of mind' True betrayal and talks you remain secure knowing who you're; you're loving enough to say 'I forgive you' You're at peace with yourself without have the need to prove. yourself to anyone.

A WARRIOR IS YOU From the mouth of destruction your smile remains un shaken You lifts your head and continue to walk in the mids of turmoil. You understand that its not about materials stuffs, you know that before Becoming a diamond first you'll be in the rough. You show courage in the mids of fear, declaring trough faith because God is near.

You realises life's a mistake no matter how storm, you always thank God for the blessing as you capitalises on them. You know its in the journey you'll become stronger and the love of God is forever with you, no matter how difficult or long.

Mitchel Peters, you're more beautiful than your imagination, more worthier than your believe. More loved than you can ever imagine. I cherish your golden heart and I admire your qualities and attributes. I hope the unborn and the growing up to be will emulate you and your legacy... I celebrate you today with love. A WARRIOR IS YOU

Some people have such big dreams, but all I want is to love you, to wake up beside you each morning, to feel the warmth of your hand in mine, to share each moment, good and bad, with you, to lose myself in your loving arms. Some people want so much out of life, but all I want is to share everything with you, for us to talk long into the night, to dream together, and experience all of the little things together that makes life worth living. Yes, I have a big dream after all. And I want so many things. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. And I want to give you my love, and to make our home a place where you always feel warm and welcome, and for us to have

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 5 a relationship in which we accept each other for who we are and always find a sweet dream in each other's arms. All I want is for us to love each other for the rest of our lives. And I do believe that dreams can come true.

As long as their is water in ocean, as long as their is brightnes in sun, as long as moon brighting the night, as long as millions of birds cannot overshadow the brightness of d sky, as long as their is beauty in nature, as long as their is colour in rainbow, as long as their is not limit to the sky, as long as days follow the nite, as long as sunset is pretty, as long as diamon is to be precious, as long as secret are to heart, as long as pictures are meant for memories, as long as human are meant to be born, to live and die! my love for you will never die, my fillings for you will never fade, as long as i'm still breathing, i can never stop loving you.

When the sky grows pale and the stars awaken, I'll dream a lover's dream from which I won't be shaken. Hand-in-hand, we'll stroll the beach where cool waters rise, and I'll be spellbound by the love reflected in your eyes. And just as the light of heaven is thrown, I'll fill your world with splendor as I make you my own. In the stillness, we'll be carried to a world beyond the sun, where music, moonlight, and love mingles into one.

I've met so many people as I've traveled through life's way, but you've become more dear to me with each passing day. You always lift my spirit like a touching work of art and bring much hope and joy to my lonely heart. You're like a precious lily, so wonderful and fair, filling each day of my life with beauty, warm and rare. And I'll think of you this springtime where the gentle waters flow and every time I pass a meadow where the springtime flowers grow.

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 11 Desire

I ache for your touch. I crave your loving embrace. There are so many hills to climb together and dreams to chase. I love everything about you, your soothing voice, your endless grace and beauty. I live for your love, my heart's treasured duty. I'll never get enough of you. I'm lost when your lips meet mine, carried away by thoughts of the most romantic kind, I the chalice and you the wine. I want to know if you hope, if you care, if you dream, if you dare... to give us a try? Does your heart beat in unison with mine?

I finally found my Garden of Eden when I met you. All of my life, I searched for someone who would make the stars shine bright each night, and make each day sunny. I wanted someone in my life who would make me smile, someone who would make me feel cherished, someone who would give me a lift when I'm feeling down, someone who would cheer me on, when I hesitate, someone who would hold and comfort me through the storms. You've done all of this and so much more. You've brought the beauty peace, and love of the Garden of Eden to my door. Now, every night, and every dawn, I need you here with me, because I love you, and I'm only complete when you're beside me.

If you're looking for love, hunting for your soul mate, there are some things to consider before you accept that date. I bid you, don't be impressed by men who'd offer wealth without happiness. Though money may be great, you can't go wrong, if you find a man whose arms are comforting and strong. You should look beyond the cover, delve deep inside the book; for there's a measure of a man that's more important than looks. He should have ears that listen and eyes that are kind; he should have a warm heart and an open mind. He should be accepting even if he doesn't understand. If you've met someone that like, then you've found your man.

Never forget that you have many wonderful and golden days ahead, something great to look forward to. Never lose hope for a brighter tomorrow. Raise your sails high, and continue to journey toward your dreams. You'll receive everything you've hoped for if you stay on course. And should trouble come your way, just relax and let the tempest rage around you; the hope you harbor safely within will keep the storms at bay. Just continue to dream as you navigate your ship like a master mariner. Let your heart be the chart, and you'll reach the paradise that you've always yearned for.

or the way I love a rose in bloom, because sunsets and roses fade. I love you the way I love the night's glowing promise of dawn, the way I love the hidden light carried by the stars. I love you the way I love a winter garden that holds the beauty of flowers that have not yet bloomed. I don't love you the way I love the sun or the wind, because they only touch me on the outside. I love you like something beautiful that lives inside me, like the fire of existence, a beautiful memory of childhood. I love you with all of the passion that feeds my soul and inspires my greatest dreams. Without knowing how or from where, I love you as completely and as naturally as the circle of life. I love you as perfectly as the way the stars shine

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 18 upon the whole world, as perfectly as the way your hand lies upon my chest. I love you the way that I love the unity and flow between us, the way we close our eyes and dream of tomorrow together. I love you, infinitely, passionately, and profoundly, with everything I am, and with everything I've ever hoped for.

I can promise you my everlasting devotion, my loyalty, my respect, and my unconditional love for a lifetime.

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 26 I Miss You

I'm thinking about you again. I miss you badly and wish you were here with me. My soul knows no rest even when I sleep, because I dream about you and imagine how great it would be if you were here with me. Without you, because every seconds'minute and hours spent with you was a testimony... I feel like a part of my heart is missing without you by my side. I'm in dire need of your tender love and passionate kissing... if only you were here with me. Every day I tell myself to move on with my life, and I try to pretend that I'm happy, but it's just not true. I'm alone and blue, because you're not here with me. At night I get down on my knees and pray for brighter days. I know that the sunshine I need is on the way, because someday you'll be here with me. But until that day, I'll never stop yearning for you, and wishing that you were here to stay, because I love you, and I want you here with me.

If only you knew, how my heart overflows with love for you. If only you could see the way you fill my hopes and dreams. You're the owner of my heart, the ruler supreme. Even in the dark of night, I've only to think about you to feel your loving light and from this world I drift feeling as if I'll never touch the ground again... If only you knew. If only you could guess how I hear your voice when others speak; for you hold the key to my happiness, and it's always you my soul seeks. If only you could feel, how your very presence has the power to heal, all the wounds inside me. You've made me abandon the pain of yesterday, and you've shown me that the past can no longer stand in the way of what I hope to achieve... If only you knew. If only you could realize the way you've shown me that it's better to give than to take, and whatever I do, I do for your sake. I'm willing to give you my all and expect nothing in return. But, oh how I yearn for you... if only you knew.If only you knew how much your love mean to me...

I'll be there for you when you weep. I'll dry your tears and stroke your hand as you sleep. I'll be beside you each time dawn sets the world aglow, and I'll warm you when you stare in wonder at the diamonds in the snow. I'll caress you with each wind and lift your spirit as high as a bird in flight. And I'll inspire you like the sparkle in the stars at night. I'll be the sunlight's gold dancing on the grain, the serenity you feel from the gentle spring rain. I'll be there for you when you cry, and even in death, we'll never say goodbye.

I haven't been myself. Since I fell in love with you, my whole world changed. I rediscovered the dreams I'd hidden in a drawer and found my priorities rearranged. My friends barely recognized me after I met you; for as our love deepened and grew, the hope and aspirations I'd cloistered away blossomed anew. And it's my undying hope that the bond we forged shall ever remain for I've placed my hope for tomorrow in your heart. I never want to be myself again.

Incomparable Mom Mom, you're a wonderful mother, So gentle, yet so loving so simple. The many ways you show you care and love Always make me feel I belong. You're patient when I'm foolish; You give guidance when I ask; It seems you can do most anything; You're the master of every task. You're a dependable source of comfort; You're my cushion when I fall. You help in times of trouble; You're my gold when i'm penury, you're my hope when i'm dispirited, you gave me hope, you let me realise my dream, and gave me reason to live You support me whenever I call. I love you more than you know; You have my total respect. If I had my choice of mothers, You'd be the one I'd select! you're a true mother, d hope of the hopeless, demi god, priceless diamond, best of all tha is what you are mum.I LOVE MUM.

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 35 Life And Time

When it?s to rain, clouds gather up in the sky. So dark, mild, puffy and scary. No place is laid out for better safety. Here, is where all shall stay to witness thunder and its blossoming lightning. Creatures go about with no assurance of survival. But nature, embraces our powerless selves to relax knowing that all is well. Like trouble, when it affiliates our lives without a sign of caution. Brings nothing but turmoil to these shaken souls- Helplessly gazing ahead for all confusion to pass on. Earth is never fun when one is sulking, cause then death prevails. Rain on its own sanctifies. Same clouds that cover you with fear, bring down water of life. Darkness loiters around for a while; and blinds your focus so you see not when it turns. When it turns, so far away that your vision is blared with any troubles ever existed. It?s for this truth that, rejoice when clouds gather. For sadness sent down are disguises filled with blessings to come fourth! As the sun shines after this huge storm.

Spring is approaching with endless skies of blue, and more than ever I long to be with you. Soon the rose bushes will set the garden ablaze, and the daffodils will bear gold. Each beautiful day will end only to be followed by another, but this yearning inside, will never grow old. I'll gaze up at the silvery stars each night and pretend you're here with me, that I can kiss you and hold you tight. You're a living dream, a wish come true, and though we're apart, I vow that my heart will ever be true. I'll always cherish, and need you. And each dawn that I awake, the grass rich with diamond-like dew, I'll think of you, and my heart will overflow with love that belongs only to you.

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 39 More Than A Mother

When God set the world in place, when He hung the stars up in space, when He made the land and the sea, then He made you and me. He sat back and saw all that was good, He saw things to be as they should. Just one more blessing He had in store; He created a mother, but whatever for? He knew a mother would have a special place to shine His reflection on her child's face. A mother will walk the extra mile just to see her children smile. She'll work her fingers to the bone to make a house into a home. A mother is there to teach and guide, a mother will stay right by your side. She'll be there through your pain and strife, she'll stay constant in your life. A mother will lend a helping hand until you have the strength to stand. She'll pick you up when you are down, when you need a friend she'll stick around. A mother is one who listens well, will keep her word; will never tell. A mother never pokes or pries but stands quietly by your side, giving you the strength you need, encouraging you to succeed. A mother is one who can be strong when you need someone to lean on. You're more than a mother to me; a reflection of Him in your face I see, a love that knows no boundaries. I'm glad that you chose to be all this and more to me. You share a love that knows no end, you're more than my mother, you are my friend.

For all you give away; you speak kindly and act fairly, touching lives and instilling hope; you lend strength during the tough times and courage during the rough times. You unselfishly take on responsibility, making the lives of everyone around you better. And you do all of these things without fanfare or fuss. You're unsung, but I want you to know that you'll always be the bright light that shines in my heart, my very own hero.

I feel weak, as if I've fallen in love for the first time, because I'm yearning, missing you, missing your touch, missing your voice, missing your face, missing all of you, missing the way you make me feel. Spring is all around, and the warm winds will flow into summer all too soon, and I take in the beauty of it and miss you all the more. Where the wild roses bloom and the violets spread out, I think of you. And I know that in the days ahead, I'll miss you even more each time I see a delicate bud in bloom my lady.

I awoke to the brightest day that ever shone, 'twas so fair to see; for the light came from a rare and splendid rose, standing right in front of me. I'll carry this vision lovingly in my heart until the day I die. And every memory I hold dear will return with the light in your eyes. For thou art my rose, the flower of my earthly joy, never to wilt upon the stem; and I, a mere budding tree with arms outstretched, shall ever crave your sunshine in them.

One brief moment in time, yet a golden memory that will shine forever. I can still see the sun shimmering on your skin, lighting a smile that left me weak. I leaned into your every word, as if they were holy, finding grace in everything about you. The world faded around me until all I could see was you, and suddenly, I abandoned everything that I ever dreamed, and ever wanted to be, because I realized that I only wanted to be with you forever. I still feel that way, and you still have the power to move me, and make each moment of my life wonderful!

I searched long, and I struggled endlessly for a dream. The dream seemed impossible, so far away... unreachable. At times I thought I'd never find it. But it arrived suddenly. And it was far better than I could have ever imagined- only it was not what I'd expected. For how was I to know that I'd find my dream in you? The dream is not about fame or fortune, and it's not about power or success; the dream arrived via the heart, built out of emotion and borne of love. The dream is as pure as a dove circling heaven, and it's blessed by legions of angels; it's an awakening of the soul, bringing me closer to God, and making me see the goodness in all things. Now I feel complete at last, and through the strength you've given me, I feel as if I can accomplish anything. Now I'm sailing on these dreams of you. There's nothing in life that I'd rather do, than dedicate my heart and soul to a lifetime of loving you. '

Every night when I close my eyes, I drift to sweet dreams of you. I imagine the taste of your lips, the feel of your hands in mine, and the softness of your hair brushing against my cheek... and suddenly I'm strong yet weak from my need for you. And when you hold me close, and look into my eyes as you whisper how much you love me, I'm carried gently to the clouds. Your love makes me feel so alive and proud of the person I am when I'm with you. Yet when the stars fade as dawn breaks, you kiss me goodbye at the door, and I awake needing you even more than I did the day before. I'm missing you badly, and I wish you were here. But though you're far away, in my heart you'll stay. I'll never quit wishing that you were here beside me, but until that day, I've only to dream about you, and I escape to that place in my heart, where we're never apart.

We go through life asking why, but love is the reason we live and die. Love is all the soul yearns to seek, the only word the spirit speaks. We dry our tears with the hand we hold, heal our wounds with a heart of gold. For love we seek rainbows in the sky and plant our dreams on the stars up high. Only love lights the candle in the our souls, instilling hope and faith to make life whole. And we cling to love the only tie that binds the spirit and soul and heart and mind.

Perhaps I hide it well, or maybe to my heart you're blind, but if you look very close, you're sure to find... that I love you with heart and soul and body and mind. I spend my time thinking about you; sometimes I'm elated and hopeful, and sometimes I'm down and blue, waiting for these sweet dreams of us to come true. There's a picture in my mind, the way I wish it could be, and I believe happiness is possible for you and me. You don't have to look very hard- it's not so difficult to see, that we're as perfect together as shore and sea. The ribbons around my heart, are the ties that bind; I'm a slave to the oldest type of bondage known to mankind. And I'll always be right here waiting for you, my heart ever hopeful that these dreams will come true, but whether or not they do until the end of time,

I can take a broken heart and make it whole again; for I'm the key to life's happiness. I can give the weak the strength they need to face the day. I remind the ill that all is not lost. I help people conquer the most difficult battles. Those who cling to me, will make it through the worst ordeal. I inspire people to follow their dreams, to pursue new careers, to finish their education, to meet their goals. I remove the weight of tomorrow's burden. I'm a sparkle in the dark, lending inspiration. I'm a balm during the day, instilling calm during times of stress. I'm not too hard to find if you look for me; for I'm everyone's best friend. And once I'm in someone's heart, their life will never be the same again. My name is hope. Have you included me in your life today?

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 59 Where Can I Find You

Where can I find you? Where are you hiding? I've asked the Stars they remain silent I've asked the Moon night after night from full moon to crescent and back she shies away from me... Not a word I ask the Sun from sunup till sundown I beg and cajole The blazing eye in the sky to speak of you To tell me where she has last seen you To put aside his jealousy that I long for your heart more than hers In anger she burns and doesn't say a word I ask the sea I ask every living tree From the flowers I plead 'Tell me, little ones... Have you seen her? Have you seen my love? ' They sway and sway Though she loves them so... Not a word they say I ask my heart, 'Have you seen my love? It's been so very long... So very long since I felt her touch and heard his voice Have you seen my love, Tell me, where has she gone? ' My heart speaks, 'Silly child... All this time and you have not heard her speak? What is each beat?

www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 60 What is this inner pounding you hear? Is it not her voice? Can you not hear? She is here... She is resting in me Not to be harmed Yes, don't be alarmed She is here in your little heart Of what use is the sun, moon, stars, and sea When she lies safe in me You can find him also in your mind There, in there, my little one She is who you want him to be She loves you as you want to be loved In your heart In your mind She lives and breaths and moves Can't you see? Can't you hear? Listen to me.' Wearied from my search I lay down on my bed I closed my tear filled eyes and placed my hand on my chest I felt the beating of my heart and I thought of you I smiled and I thought of you The Moon sent her silvery messengers To caress and sooth me and with the light of dawn, The Sun came to warm my thoughts And I rose to a new day With no questions in my heart With nothing left to say For my lover was in me...

when you can face your hopes and dreams instead? Why let your frustrations get to you when there's so much that makes you happy? Why focus on your failures when you can put your energy into what's still possible? Why regret what you've done when you can make tomorrow so much better? Why get down on your imperfections when you have so many gifts? Why frown when there are so many reasons to smile every day? Each day is another chance to do better, to try harder. Each day will bring you closer to your dreams. 'Why, '

To these eyes, you shall never grow old; nor shall winter's clutch ever feel too bitter and cold, when you're here to warm my soul. Of all the things in this world I've seen- autumns of orange and red, winters gray and mean, and summers of hazy gold, you shall ever be, the springtime of my heart, a fragrant blossom as fresh as boughs of green. Neither these eyes nor this soul seeks to be deceived, but when your endless beauty is perceived, this heart shall beat gladly for you alone. You're my sunshine and my garden overgrown with soft white blossoms that never fail to inspire and enchant me. You've planted the seeds, for all that my happiness is and ever shall be.

I stood for the longest time, staring out at the night, taking in the way the moon burns in the blackness. I felt the warmth of the summer breeze against my body, as thoughts of you washed over me. And I wondered how your mere voice could move me more than the stars and how thoughts of you could touch me like a warm wind. I want us to be like the brightest stars in the sky, our light moving over each other and spinning out some magic in the darkness. And I want to keep this wonderful spark of life that I feel every time I hear your voice.
