IF

If at night in my room amidst oranges and blues

I close my eyes, all I'd see would be visions of you.

I'd die at the thought of not seeing your face

and also at the thought of your being replaced

thoughts of the visage, the fragrance, the essence of you

the warmth that you bring, oh so pleasantly do

take captive stray minutes when I should be working

concentration soon lost when thoughts of you come lurking,

these words that I write help my heart speak its mind,

what my lips dare not say but on paper I'm blind,

to rejection, affection I give to you freely,

a hopeless romantic, I dream that you're feeling,

the way that I do, and then I awake,

one second without you is more than I could take,

love at 1st sight, I now see that it's real,

cuz emotions like this just aren't easy to feel.

LOVE

With myself calm, cool, collected

I step into the room well-known and well-respected

When across the room I see a lady loveliest to me

and she see me brown and hazel lenses clash, our eyes they meet then

sweetly dash, then again, music blastin people passin,

but nothing else is seen or felt or heard but you and me, yes we,

with silence speak what words dare not say,

to touch, to meet, to greet, we part, but parting is sweet sorrow,

our lips they move, no words are said,

and all around the world lay dead but 2, just 2,

me and you, stand silent taken by the power, yes the force that is.....

Love.

This is How I Feel

How many time I've seen you standing there

and thoguht of words to say;

But everytime I start to say those words,

I only walk away

You run through my mind like all the time,

I just thought I'd let you know

That you're the one I care about, my love I want to show,

Your sexy style and sweet mystique entreat me day and night;

with ebony eyes that hypnotize and a smile that lights my life,

I wrote this poem to tell you that my love is here to stay;

So let me tell you how I feel about you night and day

I'm too old to play games, so I'll tell you the truth,

If I could choose someone to be my girl

then baby I'd pick you.

1 Second
You told me it only takes 1 second
one second to ruin a marriage
but baby, you failed to see
the truth, and this reality
It hurt so much, I could have cried
but through the love of friends, my tears subside
you say you want to be with me,
and that you are all alone
you tell me you want to be with me when we are on the phone
but too often i've been hurt
to the point I'm afraid to trust
You're right, it only took one second,
one second to ruin us.
