When We Listen

I love the kiss The deep sensual feel of someone so close The way it makes all thoughts go How the skin feels hot How the heart beats as if to explode I love the kiss The way the tongues dance together The hands explore I love the way a kiss makes everything so much More. Close your eyes and see Just how amazing a kiss can be Everything you need to know Can be explained by the kiss. How much I've missed you I will show you How much I need you You will feel How much I love to be with you It's all shown With the touch of my lips and the tip of my tongue. So many believe it's just a kiss but when it's as emotional as this It can move you to tears or make you smile It can last for a very long while Don't ignore the power of one's lips Don't forget the strength of a kiss If you want to know how I feel Plant your lips on mine and if the walls disappear and we float together Believe me...

Once there was a little girl who only wanted to be loved! She looked in all the wrong places just for a hug. She was told she had to give more if she wanted to be seen. She was told she had to be more if she wanted her dream. She gave, they took... she waited to see. Not enough was all it ever seemed to be. So, she gathered her things and turned away, to start a love in a different way. She found her strength, she found her voice. She lived a life of her own choice. She knows if she could choose who she would choose to be. The choice to choose would be... "Me!"

Do you know me? I hide within the shadows I run behind the wind I blend in with the trees Leaves stumble around me with ease. Do you see me? I pass you every day I walk in your shoes I glide behind you as you move I watch you move about your day I wonder what it's like to be you Do you hear me? I reach for you, but I can never get close enough I scream for you, but my words float above you, and are carried away I wonder why you can't hear me I wonder why you wont see me But, I will wait until you do For, I am that power you are searching for I am what you are always hoping to find, but choose to ignore. I am what you have spent your lifetime looking for Once you believe in you, then you will see me Once you find you...you will hear me. Once you know; you can do anything You will have set me free I am that power within you I'm just waiting for you to believe!!

I am a survivor of things no one wants to talk about.   I am a statistic of too many numbers to count. I am a fighter. I am a believer that all things are possible. I have hurt deeper than I thought possible. I have looked up at the world,  I have stood next to the sun, and I have cried tears like rain. I have hidden from life.  I have asked "why" more times than I care to admit. I have spoken my truths and fought for my beliefs.  I have lost, but in losing, I have won. I am human.  I am imperfect  I am as weak as I am strong. I am no longer silent. I am no longer hiding. I am looking for what everyone is looking for...to be seen!  

It's those eyes No, the lips Wait, it's the way he holds my hips Yes, those hands Awe that smile The way we snuggle for awhile. Yummy, his kiss Again with the lips? They hold his thoughts, his feelings, his smile That smile does distract me for quite awhile. His chest, his skin, I wanna crawl within. Was that a bit much? God, how I love his touch. His arms so strong They hold me tight I could stay there all day and night There are other things I could say But, I don't want to scare you away. Just know this... It's his eyes, his lips and the way he holds my hips It's his heart, his smile, the way he holds me for awhile It's the man, I know, who has captured my heart by the way he smiles at my soul. Again with the lips I know, but if you knew what I know... It's that smile!! ;)

In the rustling of the leaves I hear you. Through the bustling of the trees, I see you. The wind whips my checks and sends chills through my bones, but the thought of you warms me. The ground pulls at my feet, making each step I take painful; awkward. I continue forward hoping to touch you one more time. Hoping this will be the last time I search for you. I dare to believe you will be there for me. Can my heart handle another mis-step? When I reach for you will you come to me? I fall to my knees, a tear sheds. Here I wait, and hope to see, that which has escaped me. ~Love~

She hears the music playing The melody is so loud. She wonders where it's coming from~ it must be near. Her heart is racing. Her thoughts are chasing, the memory of a man, she once saw here. Would he dance with her? She remembered feeling how wonderful it would be, to be wrapped within his arms. His eyes smiled, but she doubted. For why would a man such as him choose her? She froze in the place. He was near. She tried to utter words.  He's passed her with out a glance. She had stumbled at her chance. Now here she is within these walls. It's been years...all was thought lost. But here again is her and him. There he is standing with a grin. Will she fail to catch his eye? Will she again leave wondering "why?" He's once again within her space. Her heart thunders. Her hands shake. Her voice barely a whisper She looks into his eyes and exhales, "Will you dance with me?"
