Poem 1

The day will come when my body will lie upon a white sheet neatly tucked under four corners of a hospital mattress located in a hospital occupied by the living and the dying. At a certain moment a doctor will determine that my brain has ceased to function at that, for the practical purpose, my life has stopped.

When that moment happens, do not attempt to install artificial life into my body by the use of a machine. And don't call this my death bed, let it be called the Bed of Life. And let my body be taken from it to help give others a fuller life.

Give my sight to a man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face, or love in a woman's eyes.

Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain.

Give my blood to a teenager who was pulled from a wreckage of his/hers car. So that he/she might live to see his/hers grandchildren play.

Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week.

Take my bones, every nerve and every muscle in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk or to use their arms.

Explore every corner of my brain, take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that someday, a speechless child will shout at a crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of the rain against her window.

Burn what is left of me and scatter my ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow. If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses and all my prejudice against my fellow man.

Give my sins to the devil.

Give my soul to God.

If by chance you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or word to someone who needs you.

IF YOU DO ALL THAT I ASK, I WILL LIVE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poem 2

Love is hard to find,

many have come and gone,

but I know my journey is over now,

because I have found you and,

You are someone so incredible.

each day our bond grows stronger,

everytime you hold me,

you leave me breathless,

you have given me happiness,

and you have showed me heaven,

now we will go to a higher dimension.

I'm inside your soul,

I can feel your every motion,

I have got love to give and,

I know everything will work out alright,

there is no doubt in my mind,

I have got the best os love.

Poem 3

Thank You, My Love

Thank you for accepting,

the qualities I possess.

I know I am not perfect,

but I do my best.

Thank you for letting me,

be the person that I am.

You never held me back,

from doing all I can.

Thank you for the truth,

when you could have lied.

I know you truly care,

for how I feel inside.

Thank you for your love,

which is very strong.

The power of your love,

held us together so long.

Most of all, I thank God,

for leading me to you.

I will love you forever,

and will always be true.

Thanks for being you!

Poem 4

ALL I WANT IS TO LOVE YOU

for the rest of my life...

to wake up every morning

with you by my side,

knowing that no matter what happens,

I'll be able to come home

to your loving arms.

ALL I WANT IS TO SHARE EVERYTHING WITH YOU...

to talk to you about our ideas, our dreams,

the little everyday things

that make us laugh,

and the not-so=little things

that we can't help worrying about.

ALL I WANT IS TO GIVE YOU MY LOVE...

as a place you can always

come to for acceptance

or the simple comfort that silence brings

when things left unspoken

can still be understood.

ALL I WANT IS TO GROW OLD WITH YOU...

to watch our life unfold,

our dreams, one by one, come true.

ALL I WANT IS TO LOVE YOU FOREVER.

Poem 5

IN DREAMS, the perfect love

has a smile, a voice, a touch

that seems meant just for you...

IN DREAMS, the perfect love

is tender and giving,

always knowing just what to say

to make you feel wanted,

just what to do

to make you feel loved...

IN DREAMS, the perfect love

is that one person

with whom you can let go

and be yourself,

the one who makes you feel

completely alive

just by being near...

I'm luckier than most people

because I don't have

to dream anymore...

I found you.

Poem 6

Don't walk in front of me,

I may not follow,

Don't walk behind me,

I may not lead,

Just walk beside me,

And be my friend forever.

Poem 7

You are one of the best things,

that has ever happened to me.

You are my love,

and my best friend

And every day that goes by,

it seems like I discover

something new about

you to love.

It is incredible to me

how one person can make

such a big difference

in my life.

You touch me in a way

no one else ever has

and give me

so many special

reasons to smile.

I've never been so happy...

and I've never been so in love.

Poem 8

You are my Everything

My life began when I met you

Your first kiss brought my first breathe

Your touch started my heart beating

Just a look from you ignited my pulse

You're the only one I really need now

Only you can make my dreams come true

Because of you my life has meaning

You have opened you heart and showed me your love

When you hold me nothing else matters

The world could fall aroun us and I wouldn't see

Passion has taken over my soul and hunger for your embrace

As times goes by, our love grows stronger

Because........you are my everything!

Poem 9

Hold Me

The best place for me,

I now realize,

Is in your arms,

or at least in your eyes.

For that is one place,

I do feel secure,

As time seems to fly,

without any cure.

My heart beats so fast,

and my head feels so light,

I'm glad that you're holding me tight,

Or my soul might take flight.

So hold me forever,

as close as you can,

For the reason I love you,

Is that you understand.

When I am with you,

My world is at peace,

So please hold me near,

Until all my fears cease.

Poem 10

Our love is strong,

I feel my soul merge with yours and our hearts becime one.

I am immersed in your love,

and like a rapid river the passion flows through every part of me.

You brighten my darkest nights and you warm the bitter cold.

If there are a thousand tomorrows you will still be the one that I dream of.

The wind will whisper your words till the end of time.

You have taken me to paradise,

and given nights of endless pleasure.

I close my eyes and I feel you cover me with your embrace.

No one will love you better,

because baby I love you with all my heart.

Poem 11

You Seduce Me

My heart is like an erupting volcano,

My blood runs as hot as the molten lava, surging down the crevices

Just a touch from you,

Deprives my mind of everything and strips my very well being

But nothin else matters.

Your eyes pierce my soul,

And leaves me hypnotized.

Being with you now is all I care about

If my life ended now,

I could die knowing I had been loved.

I thank God everyday for sending youto me,

You are apart of me now,

And with everything you do...

You Seduce Me

Poem 12

WALLS

When there is no one around,

And no on to listen,

No one to hear,

And it seems something is missing,

Don't get upset,

There is nothing to fear.

Just talk to the walls,

They may be made of wood,

Or brick or stone,

But when you talk,

Do they not creak and groan?

They can be playful,

Or flicker a tune,

Or reflect the shimmers,

Of the flowing moon.

They free the silence,

That is captured inside,

And drink the tears,

You may have cried.

They sing and dance,

ANd whisper too,

You talk to them,

An they will talk to you.

Poem 13

Best Friend

Someone who'll be there for me, through thick and thin.

I can depend on you always, right down to the end.

Your support and encouragement can never be replaced.

Your presence always seems to keep a smile on my face.

Safe and secure is how you always make me feel.

Every moment spent with you, too great to seem real.

Although we may disagree, or I hurt you in any way.

You see past all my imperfections and love me, come what may.

Willing to protect me and put your life on the line.

These qualities so rare and so hard to find.

All this and more is why I can say.

You'll be my best friend, forever and a day.
