Why I Love You So Much


The sparkle in your eye, 
The warmth of your skin. 

Your breath on my neck, 
That quivers within. 

The touch of your hand, 
The smell of your hair. 

The kindness in your smile, 
That strength in your stare. 

Your kiss on my lips, 
Your body near mine. 

The stroke of your touch, 
That feeling inside. 

The sound of your voice, 
Compassion in your embrace. 

The serenity in your stride, 
The power in your face. 

The calming of your presence, 
The beating of your heart. 

The promise of tomorrow, 
That we may never part. 

The beauty of your kiss, 
and that magic in your touch. 

It is for all these reasons and more, 
Why I love you so much.

The Pages of My Heart



It’s the deepest of emotions, igniting a candle of love 

A flame forever burning, so deep for only you and I 

It is the happiness you have fulfilled inside my heart 

That has truly caused heavens angels to never again cry. 

It’s your kind heart that has captured mine darling 

It’s you who holds my heart deep in your hands 

It’s you, who is beautiful as a sunset over the horizon 

And it is you who has left footprints in my hearts sand. 

It’s the way you have expressed your love for me 

That has made me fall deeper in love with you 

It is the way you show your affection towards me 

That made me realize your love is so pure and true. 

It’s your love, written in the pages of my heart darling 

A chapter that will never end as long as you love me 

It’s with you, where I truly know my heart belongs 

You’re the treasure forever buried in my hearts sea. 

In taverns and winding side streets..

In taverns and winding side streets, 
In an electric daydream 
I sought the endlessly lovely, 
The eternally smitten with speech. 
The streets were drunk with screams. 
There were suns in the shining vitrines. 
The beauty of the women's faces! 
The proud gazes of the men! 
These were kings - not vagabonds! 
I asked an old man by the wall: 
"Did you decorate their delicate fingers 
With pearls of infinite worth? 
Did you give them these multicolored furs? 
Did you kindle them with shafts of light? 
Did you paint their crimson lips, 
The bluish arches of their brows?" 
But the old man did not reply, 
Following after the crowd to dream. 
I was left in mysterious radiance 
To drink in this sparkling music... 
And they just kept passing by, 
In her heart each concealing a vagueness, 
To fly off forever, incomparable, 
Into the blue beyond. 
Pair after pair flashed by... 
I awaited the bright angel's coming, 
When he, in the street's exultation, 
Would convey one of them to heaven.... 
While above us, out on a dangerous ledge - 
Nestled a dwarf, silently coiled, 
And the tongue that spread in the sky, 
Seemed a red banner to us. 

Oh, yes, love is free as a bird...


"Oh, yes, love is free as a bird," 
But all the same I am yours! 
And all the same I will dream 
Of your figure, all aflame! 
The ravening strength of your fine hands, 
Your eyes saddened by betrayal 
Are all the madness of my vain passion, 
Are all my nights, Carmen! 
Of you I will sing to the sky 
Of your voice I will sing! 
Like a priest, with the stars as witness, 
I will perform your rite of fire! 
You will rise like a stormy wave 
In the river of my poems, 
And I will never wash my hands 
Of your perfume, Carmen... 
And in the still of night, ablaze 
Like a momentary flame, 
I'll see the flash of your white teeth 
And your persistent face. 
How I am haunted by the sweet hope 
That you, in a foreign land, 
That you will find a moment 
For secret thoughts of me. 
Beyond life's storm, beyond the cares, 
Beyond the sorrow of all betrayals, - 
May this solemn thought arise, 
Simple and white, like a road, 
Like a long road, Carmen! 

I am riveted to the tavern counter...


I am riveted to the tavern counter.
Long past drunk, I don't give a damn.
A sleigh has stolen my happiness
Away into the silvery smoke...
It flew off in a sleigh, is buried deep
In the snows of time, in the reaches of years...
And it only sifts over my soul,
Like a silvery mist kicked up by the hooves.
In the muffled darkness sparks fly up,
Sparks light up, light up the night...
The sleigh bells jangle on and on
Telling of happiness, of its flight...
And there is only the golden harness
Shining all night...Ringing all night...
And you, my soul...my muffled soul...
Are reeling drunk...reeling drunk...

The Guardian Angel


I love you , my Guardian Angel, you are
   A sparkle in darkness, my guiding star.
    
   I love you because you're my fair bride,
   Because of my secrets you have deprived.
    
   Because we are bound by secret and night,
   Because you're my mother, my daughter, my bride.
    
   I love you because we are destined in life
   To be ever together as husband and wife.
    
   I love you for prayers of yours and my chains
   And for the family cursers and pains.
    
   I love you for hating whatever I do
   Like helping the poor whom I give their due.
    
   I love you, because we just we can't live at one,
   Because I can kill a detestable man.
    
   I'd kill in revenge for the weak and the blind,
   The one who abased me and people of mine.
  
   The one who has jailed the strong and the free,
   Who didn't believe in my fire and me.
    
   Who wants to deprive me of light of the day
   And purchase submission from me in some way.
    
   I love you because I am weak, I admit
   my ancestors were of servile breed.
    
   The poison of kindness has taken my life,
   I cannot resort to the use of a knife...
    
   I love you because I am weak, I believe
   You're strong, and you've known the savour of grief.
    
   For what is burnt down and coated with lead
   Cannot be torn and stamped out, you bet!
    
   We witnessed this sunset, and now you and I
   Are watching this bottomless abyss, oh my!
    
   Dual bidding of destiny - how can it be ?
   We are vicious slaves! Our souls are free!
    
    
   Be humble and daring! Don't go! Get away!
   What's up ahead? Is it night or day?
    
   Where are we going? Who calls? Who will cry?
   Together - forever - constrained - you and I !
    
   Shall we revive? Shall we perish and die?

A Cute Poem for a Cute girl


 You changed my world with a blink of an eye 
That is something that I can not deny 
You put my soul from worst to best 
That is why I treasure you my dearest Marites 
You just don't know what you have done for me 
You even pushed me to the best that I can be 
You really are an angel sent from above 
To take care of me and shower with love 
When I'm with you I will not cry even a single a tear 
And your touch have chased away all of my fear 
You have given me a life that I could live worthwhile 
It is even better everytime you smile 
It so magical those things you've made 
To bring back my faith that almost fade 
Now my life is a dream come true 
It all began when I was loved by you 
Now I have found what I am looking for 
It's you and your love and nothing more 
Co'z you have given me this feeling of contentment 
In my life something I've never felt 
I wish I could talk 'til the end of day 
But now I'm running out of things to say 
So I'll end by the line you already know 
"I LOVE YOU" more than what I could show 

I Love You Since the First Day

since the first day i saw you,

i already knew.

From that day forward,

I would end up with you.

Standing hand in hand,

Me looking straight into your eyes.

You make me feel,

like I'm flying high up in the skies.

I love you with all my heart,

I love you with all my soul.

It is the way we bond,

that's making our love grow.

I got a few words to tell you,

I got a few words to say.

They are coming from the heart,

I mean them everyday.

As simple as it is,

Coming from me to you.

As much as it means,

BABY, I LOVE YOU!

The Unknown Lady

The heated air in the restaurants
Is  wild and dull as anything,
The drunken  hails are ruled by  restless
And noxious spirit of the spring.

Far off, beyond the dusty alley
Over the boring   country side
There is a bakeshop,  and the valley
Resounds with crying of a child.

And every night, beyond the barriers,
Parading, cocking their hats,
Amidst the ditches the admirers
Perambulate with dear  hearts.
  
Above the lake the creak of ore-lock
And women"s screams impale the place,
And in the sky, the moon disk warlock,
Inanely smiling,  makes a face.

And every night, my friend appears
As  a reflection in my glass,
Like me, he"s stunned  and  set at ease
By magic liquid, drunk en mass.

The  footmen, true to their habits,
Relax at tables next to us,
And drunkards, staring  like rabbits,
Exclaim:  In vino veritas!

And  every evening  at this  hour
(or is it just a dreamy  case?)
A waist in satin,  like a flower,
Moves past the window in the haze.

Without drunken men to hinder,
Alone, she walks across the room
And settles down by the window
Exhaling fog and sweet perfume.

There is a kind of old times flavour
About her silky clothes and things:
Her hat, in mourning plumes as ever,
Her hand and fingers, all in rings.

I feel her close (a strange emotion),
And looking through the veil,  I see
The  vast of an amazing ocean,
The coast of an amazing sea.

I am informed of inmost secrets,
Somebody"s sun is now all  mine,
My  body, heart and soul, in sequence,
Have all been pierced by the wine.

The  ostrich plumes, desired and welcome,
Are gently swaying in my mind,
And  dark  blue eyes, as  deep as welkin,
Are blooming  on the distant side.

Deep in my soul I have  some riches
And I"m the one who has the key!
You"re right, you heady monstrous creature!
In vino veritas,  I see.

The girl was singing in a church choir

The girl was singing in a church choir,  
About the weary abroad, far away,  
About the ships in the sea, so dire, 
And those who'd forgotten their happy day. 

So sweet was her voice flying up into highness  
With shimmering beam on her shoulder of white,  
And every one listened watching from darkness  
The way the white garment was singing in light. 

And every one thought that the joy was there,  
That the ships were all in a quiet bay,  
And the weary people abroad, full of care,  
Were now all blessed with a happy day. 

The voice was sweet, and the beam was shining, 
And only up there at the royal rack  
A child, conversant with secret, was crying  
That nobody, really, would ever come back. 

I RECALL

I recall, we would date at sundown, 
You would cut the lagoon with the ore. 
I admired your white dressing gown  
Not revering fine dreams any more. 

Our dates would be awkwardly silent. 
Up ahead on the sandy shore  
Evening candles would light up, and someone  
Thought of beauty, about to show.  

Close-up, burning and intimate feeling   
Quiet azure wouldn"t partake.  
We would meet in the haze of the evening 
On the shore of the rippled lake.  

All has vanished : love, torment, yearning, 
All has faded forevermore... 
Slender waist and the voices of mourning,  
Our row and your golden ore. 

a night with you and i

remember our night together, 
Being hand in hand with you. 
Your smile I could never forget, 
Knowing all my dreams came true. 
Just to be by your side, 
Kissing you, loving you, 
Heaven's tears fall through the sky. 
As it's tender kiss runs through my eyes, 
I now know our love can never be denied. 
As Heaven holds this night of you and I.... 

A Table Set for Two

Candles flicker softly on a table set for two,
There's no one on the earth tonight except for me and you.
A nice romantic dinner and a bottle of chilled wine,
And we are here together in a moment stopped in time.
A love so few have ever known and this is its birth night,
Alone within our little world, you and I and candlelight.
So soon we will set free the feelings that we want to share.
And I am held here spellbound by your laughter in the air.
Thoughts of love like falling leaves,
Swirling in the autumn breeze,
Flow in our minds and in our eyes,
A tender look and longing sighs,
We touch and as the fire starts,
That we have kindled in our hearts,
We kiss and hear the angels sing,
As heavens gift to me you bring,
No more to live my life alone,
And in your soul I found my home,
At peace within your loving arms,
Captivated by your charms,
And happily I'd die for you,
Here at this table set for two.

To the Muse


In your innermost songs there are hidden
Fateful tidings of death.
A curse on sacred commandments,
And a profanation of joy.
And such an alluring strength
That I'm ready to pass on the rumor
That you brought angels down
With your seductive beauty...
And when you mock faith
That dim, purplish-gray
Circle I've seen before
Suddenly blazes above you
Evil or good? - You're thoroughly alien.
People speak of you enigmatically:
For some you are Muse and miracle
For me you are torment and hell.
I don't know why, at dawn,
At the time of my last strength,
Rather than die, I caught sight of your face
And begged your consolation.
I wanted us to be enemies,
So why did you present me
With flowering meadows, the starry vault-
The curse of your beauty?
More treacherous than a northern night,
More heady than golden champagne,
And more fickle than a gypsy's love
Were your terrible caresses...
And there was a fatal delight
In flouting sacred truths,
And my heart was maddened
By this bitter, wormwood passion.

At the Restaurant

I will never forget it (did it happen-who cares?)
Burnt and split by the sunset blaze
Was the pallid celestial vast,  and some flares
Came to light in  the yellow space.

There I sat by the window,  in a crowded chamber.
Fiddlesticks were singing again.
And I sent you a flower, black rose, I remember,
And a bottle of golden champagne.

As you glanced, full of pride,  I was slightly  embarrassed,
But I looked and I bowed from above.
And addressing the man standing by, harsh and balanced,
You said: "Oh, this one, too,  is in love".

All at once  the guitars  started playing the song and
Fiddlesticks played in  tune   with the band...
But you were with me with your youthful dishonour,
I could see by the move of your hand.

 And you dashed  like a bird as if suddenly roused,
Passing by, like my dream you were light...
And there came a sweet  fume,  and the eyelashes drowsed
To the whisper of silk  in the night.

Now and then from the mirror at me you"d be glancing
As you did  "Catch it now"  you would ask...
And the jewelry  rattled, the gipsy  kept dancing
And she screamed  of her  love to the dusk.

The Meaning Of Love

To love is to share life together 
to build special plans just for two 
to work side by side 
and then smile with pride 
as one by one, dreams all come true. 
To love is to help and encourage 
with smiles and sincere words of praise 
to take time to share 
to listen and care 
in tender, affectionate ways. 
To love is to have someone special 
one who you can always depend 
to be there through the years 
sharing laughter and tears 
as a partner, a lover, a friend. 
To love is to make special memories 
of moments you love to recall 
of all the good things 
that sharing life brings 
love is the greatest of all. 
I've learned the full meaning 
of sharing and caring 
and having my dreams all come true; 
I've learned the full meaning 
of being in love 
by being and loving with you. 

BOY, GIRL


Boy: I saw her today
Girl: I saw him today
Boy: She looked more beautiful than ever
Girl: He looked better than before
Boy: I told her I missed her
Girl: He didn't mean it
Boy: I asked her how her boyfriend was
Girl: I told him we broke up
Boy: I know they're still together
Girl: I gave him a romantic hug
Boy: She gave me a friendly hug
Girl: I love him
Boy: I love her
Girl: I told him how much he means to me
Boy: I told her how much she means to me
Girl: I told him I couldn't live without his love
Boy: I told her I loved her
Girl: He told me he loved me
Boy: We ran out in the rain
Girl: He kissed me!

The Boy


A teenage boy was sitting in his room
Thinking about that broken heart
He broke that girl's heart
That boy goes through girls like some kind of art
That girl was sitting in her room crying
She thought she did something wrong
She wondered what she did
Though she was being really strong
That boy thought his actions through
He started feeling really bad
He didn't know what to do
He wanted that girl back it's true
The next day he apologized
He told her her loved her still
She loved him
Though what he said did kill
So this is where I leave you
These words engraved in stone
Maybe that boy learned that day
Words can hurt as much as broken bones

My fair girl


My fair girl, don't waist your time for nothing, easily,
         Love someone, - all is vanity without love,
         Be nice and good, don't lose the charm you have,
         So you might not regret you've lived a life of misery.
        
         Love while you're young and while your heart is ardent:
         You'll change when youth is gone, I should presume.
         Twine wreaths while flowers in the garden bloom,
         Take walks in spring, in autumn you'll be saddened.
        
         Look at the rosy flower, view it at the time
         When it has grown dim and faded, past its prime.
         Likewise, your charm will fade and disappear,
         so do not waste your time before you've seen your day
        
         Remember, nobody will ever look at you, my dear,
         When, like the rose, you fade and waste away.

You looked for me but now that time is gone for ever


You looked for me but now that time is gone for ever,
         And all the joy we shared is lost, as I can see.
         You are unfaithful to me, and you lost my favour,
         You're quite different from what you used to be.
        
         My moans and grieves are torments
         You know how it can be.
         Recall the happy moments
         When you did care for me.
        
         Look at the places where you and I have dated
         They'll help us to recall the way it used to be.
         Where are my joys? Where is your passion, fated?
         Theу're gone and never ever will come back to me.
        
         Another life is here;
         But did I wait for it?
         Gone are my life, so dear,
         My hope, and dream, so sweet.
        
         I am unhappy to have met you, so elated,
         It started with the painful torments that I feel,
         I was unhappy to be charmed by you and tempted
         And worst unhappy to adore and love you still.
        
         You caused an inflammation
         And heated up my blood.
         Why have you turned affection
         To enmity, so hard?
        
         But what's the use of worrying and grieving
         When, having lost my freedom, my passion I retain.
         And what's the use of blaming and revealing,
         You do not love me - all my arguments are vain.
        
         You've overwhelmed me, really,
         Forgetting all at one:
         The way you loved me dearly,
         The time when we had fun.
