Just a Girl

A history of a child's lost innocence

Creeps out to greet a place

A place so bright - blinding

Raising her hand to cover her eyes

In sadness and fear - alone

She has dwelled for so long in darkness

As her fingers gently part

Looking through the gaps between

She sees something so new

Pointing her naked foot out front

Stretching her toes to touch the light

Checking she won’t get hurt

This is just a girl

Who wanted to reach for the stars

Dance in the full moon light

Be kissed by the day of sun

Just a Girl

Who wanted to believe

One day she could be strong

Just Me

Those Soft Grey Eyes

When I wake to see you looking at me

Wondering how long your eyes warmed my skin

How many words you had already thought

Sending them to the heart of my mind

In those moments looking into your eyes

Melting me with such truth and meaning

Laying there those soft grey eyes

Like you have already seen what is to be

All you feel all you see is where you want to be

Sometimes I cry you know how happy I am inside

What you send to me through your eyes

Pulls from within me and pours to the surface

Knowing what you see is what you do to me

How much you mean to me, my life

No one will ever appreciate you like I do

No one will ever fight for you as much as I will

Other than your blood – no one person

Will ever love you as much as I do and can

So when you lay your eyes on me – ponder

You can imagine what goes on within me

How I think thoughts of you, all I have seen

What I feel deep inside of me, poets dream

So much that words continue to escape me

Feelings cannot always be put into words

In my eyes you find me exposed, raw and free

Just Me

Treasure Chest of Strength

It feels so good to feel how I do

Breathing deeply, air into my lungs

Alive because I am living with love

You make me feel like a queen

I am brave to step outside of me

Never stopping to do my best

A person who will always care

Care about you no matter what

The strength you give me

To believe in myself – what I can do

Overcome what I think I can’t do

Anything feels possible with you

You are a treasure chest of strength

The arms that hold me compassionately

Completely –

My heart is exposed - open for you

You have the parts of me no one else has

A map to the deepest parts of me

To the deepest journeys still to have

You are my absolute someone

The best portion of my life

All the moments no matter

How small or large are spent with you.

Just Me

Where No One Else Can Go

My heart – it knows you

How I have let you in

Where no one else can go

That I can tell you things

That no one else knows

Share my private thoughts

I can empty locked cages

You don’t judge me

There are so many reasons

I choose you to share my space

Not afraid to step out of me

Shed some tears of joy

I have never felt like with you

I just love to let you know

That you are my something

I can’t hide the joy you give

The happiness that I feel

To have love – your love

Once in my life is a privilege

To have it for the rest

Of my life is my dream

One that I didn’t think

I could ever realize

I just want to share

Share it all with you.

Just Me

Gift of Ultimate Happiness

There are times where I just want to dance

Laugh with you loudly until we run out of breath

Feel your hand in mine so ever tightly

Put my hand on your chest and feel your beat

In a crowded room it’s only you I want and see

You light up my life, my inside and outside

I would drive all day just to be close to you

I would hike a mountain of trails to you

Fly to the other side of the world for you

You are the reason for the sparkle in my eyes

The glow in my being, my skin, my smile

I give to you what no one else has of me

We don’t wait for moments to happen

We create our own special moments

I have faith in my journey with you

Everything has to happen exactly

As it is meant to be – a divine plan

Taking us where we are going next

Taking us where we need to be

It’s because of you that I know

Know what love for me really is

In my past, a box of unhappiness

With you, a gift of ultimate happiness

You have a vocabulary with me

That draws me in – consumes me

A meaningful language – perfect for me

Just Me

Preserved

Maybe our pasts are preserved
Our own Da vinci code inside
We know the colours of happiness
When our hearts and minds unite
How can we possibly define 
What we know but can't explain
A history buried deep inside
Times passed and lives lived
Crossed and crossed again
When you are with me
I am completely myself
You brought me back
To finding myself ......
The me long forgotten
Maybe you in another life
Triggered my soul
Another life - we met before

My soul is filled with droplets

            - Of you -

Every second, minute, hour with you
My soul can take an ocean of droplets

           - Limitless -  

If I cry because of the happiness you bring
Laugh from the depths of joy inside
Excel beyond what I thought possible
Live with purpose like never before
Love you with all of me for life
This is because you read me well
Consume me like a book
That you just cant put down

Whatever the da vinci code within me
I am grateful to feel what I feel 
Know what I know - see what I see
You make me feel complete
Like all that I needed to know about me
Unravels because you are the key - always
To me finding and completing me

My Heart Pours

As my heart pours itself
To the extremities - I feel you
In the joy my eyes rain
The glimmer and warmth
In my smile - beaming
It's you on my lips
You reaching deep within
My heart - grasping it firmly
How my skin comes alive
Each tiny follicle raises for you
Blood is a thriving red - flowing
Through me like the sea rushes
Every crevice and every pocket
Filled - nothing misses out
In the calm, slow, fast, intense
You are always a new sensation
Beyond all of my dreams
Beyond all I have ever felt
The knowing that with you
My world and life journey
Will be fulfilling and complete
Everyday until the end of days
