Af·firm·a·tion
Noun
The piano stood silent in the garden
As the sun shone through the trees
Lowering below the skyline it gently fell
The tune from the piano strings began to play
A tune so powerful to fix the heart
Yet when true darkness fell
The tune went too
Leaving the heart wanting to hear more
The rising sun brought the tune back again
Louder than before as my eyes opened
My heart instantly racing I opened the window to hear more
The view obscured I ran to the courtyard
After a stumble and a fumble
I opened the door to see the sun rise in the sky
With the final note of the tune been played
It resonated around the yard
How such a tune could make the heart skip and jump
But who played the tune I fear I will never know
The sun rose higher into the sky
Reluctantly I turned away from the piano where the tune had played
For the rest of the day my mind did not wander far
From the thoughts of the tune resonating over and over in my mind
The tune that played must have been from you
A reminder that you are never far away
A tune that will send me softly to sleep
Or wake me with a bright start for another day
The piano may stand still but the tune will play
And continue to play and never end.
Your sinking soul
I’d save
Even if
It sinks
Into mine
So we’re able
To save
One another
For one more
Chance together
To rise above
Towards the surface
And beyond
Where our souls
Will survive
And be alive.
I looked towards you
My eyes couldn’t look away from you
And so that remained
Forever so
I fell under your spell
But no one else could tell
So I stayed within my shell
My eyes wide
I felt nervous inside
Your beautiful broad smile
Lasted upon me for a while
I was beside myself
As I couldn't decide
What my first words would be
That I'd say to you
Within my shell
My nerves rattled
My eyes remained fixed upon you
And so that remained
Forever so
My first words now forgotten
I cottoned on to the wavelength
That you and I were ultimately on
I fell under your spell
But I in turn imparted magic
As I couldn’t look away from you
And you couldn’t look elsewhere
Love at first sight it must have been
As my eyes are in love as much as my heart.
All he wanted
Was to give his words to her
Words that resonate
In his mind over and over
The words
Unheard or not
He still loved her
Breaking his own heart
There was no need to break hers
For hers was taken
All he wanted
Was to share his thoughts
With the like minded heart
That is you
He still loved her
Because heart agreed with his mind
It was love that was felt
The words
Unheard or not
They resonated
And still do
Every time
He sees her eyes
Breaking his heart he did no more
Instead when those eyes
Looked deeply into his
He simply smiled
Thinking to himself
That the love is there
If it is ever needed
The words
Unheard or not
He still loved her.
Please believe me
When I say
I like you
Please believe me
When I say
I’d like to dance with you
Please believe me
When I say
You make my heart smile
Please believe me
When I say
Your laughter is infectious (like your smile)
Please believe me
When I say
I live for you and to be near to you
Please believe me
When I say
I love you
Not the pretend love, the real love
The love that means I’d die for you
Please believe me
When I say
And what I say
Because it is what I say
And what I feel
Otherwise
I wouldn’t say
Anything at all.
I want my child's memories
To be that of trees and sunshine walks
Playing on the beach
(Even though it won’t be each week)
With sounds of laughter always aloud
Even if the clouds cover our sunshine
I want my child to see the world
With their own beautiful eyes
(My goodness she has beautiful eyes)
And not in front of a TV screen
Or mobile phone
Where entertainment is that of an APP(lication)
That saps the mind of outdoor times
And precious time itself
There is never enough time
Only when it runs out
We then think
If only…
If only I…
‘If’ becomes prominent
So time with my child
Is a time when moments matter
And being there for them
Is what truly matters
(Even if my patience is in tatters from little matters)
When I hear the laughter of my child
That I have caused by a silly face
Or talking puppets that make me look like a muppet
I only want to capture it in a bottle
Pure happiness in a sound
It’s JOY within
Escaping
Making the world a much nicer place
I want my child's memories
To be happy and free
And always knowing
That there is always more to see
With her beautiful eyes.
What would it be like to fly from the bridge
Across the Menai over the shore soaring through the trees
The water below the bridge flows and is not slow
A rush it would be to sail out to sea if I were to go
Taking the chance and following your heart
Instead of hiding I stride out to find out how far I will fly
Mountain high I hope to fly to see the beauty of the land
Land where we walk and talked and gave everything for the day
Flying high I would see the land that we live on
The paths that we have walked and the mountains to conquer
Sometimes in life we want to fly away
But the fast flowing water and the mountains high
Are our challenge in life to take on [unexpectedly] and survive
From the bridge to the mountains to the Strait below and out to the sea
Life brings us challenges that are here to test our heart and soul.
He didn’t mean to fall in love
But after he met you he could feel no other way
The moment his eyes captured her light
It was like a switch had been flicked
He didn’t mean to fall in love
However at the end of the day
That is what happened
And that switch has never been flicked back
Whatever the light would be that day
It would have lit up his heart anyway
With beauty that strong he had to hang on
He didn't mean to fall in love
But who decides when and who you fall in love with
(Love is exhilarating but the sudden stop can cause some pain)
Falling in love his eyes met the light
That would shine brightly for longer than could ever imagine
His heart said to him to fall in love
And gladly the mind and soul accepted
He didn’t mean to fall in love
But after he met you he could feel no other way.
From the view
We stand
We could leap
Holding hands
Side by side
Not knowing how far we’d fall
It’s a leap to take
Even if we end up in a heap
Beauty in the eyes
As are the surroundings
We leap in love
As our hearts are strong
Lovers leap
We are deep
In love
Deep like the thoughts
Of the steep steep hills
Take the leap
Forget the beauty sleep
I love your heart
As it starts my world every day
Let me sweep you off your feet
With our beauty ready to leap
We will keep one another safe
No need to weep
As I will brush the tears away
When hurt or unwell
The leap in love
We will take
Holding hands
Side by side
When one day
We’ll sleep
In each other's arms
All because
We took the leap.
The link is broken
When clicked it goes nowhere
Error 404 page appears
When others meddle
With what they don’t know
The link is broken
And the connection is lost
When the link worked so well
Why change or comment
To change what is great
And before it’s too late
What was is now broken
Fixing the link just takes one click
But the minds behind the greatness that was
Need to connect and rebuild what was
But with what has been said to damage the link
The code has changed and the script reads differently
You and I are the link that we will rebuild
As if we don’t the error page will keep being seen
And for people to see what they created
Is letting them win and this cannot be
We are the connection and let’s make a reaction
Take action to re-establish the connection
With the right code and so the script is read right
Because it is that in which makes us great
And in turn we combine to define the connection.
Does anyone still write love letters?
Or is it now a lost art
Writing the words of the heart
Taking time and thinking of how one feels
Penning the words that sometimes are too hard to say
But written they become somehow more factual
The heart pace eases and the words are now free
Or is it just instant love
Like instant messaging
Press send and await the reply
Jumping straight to ‘I like you‘
‘I love you’
Let’s go out together?
Now let’s jump into bed??
See that it’s delivered, read
But always scared of the what the response may be
No matter what how the message is
Or how it is delivered
The wait is long and nerve racking
Does anyone still write love letters?
Because if love is worth the wait
A handwritten letter
Would show more to he or she
That you feel so strongly inside
It’s just if we’re willing to wait
In what one another feels
Does anyone still write love letters?
Or have times changed
A love letter to me says more to me
But times have changed
So press send
And wait nervously inside.
Where we were
I'd forgot
So many memories
I'd forgotten a few
Until I saw you
Like a flash of lighting
The memories came back
With the feelings
Felt as strongly then
They do so now
For this moment
We'd could be
Where we were
With forgetting
Everything that is now
As this moment
Hasn't occurred
Since it was forgotten
Where we were
We never were as near now
As we were then
Where we were
I remember fondly
If not forgetting
Some details
Where we were
I tried to find the past
But it wasn’t there
As it had already been
And gone
Where we were
I'd forgot
As time had past
And the effect of time
Had taken some memories.
I took my heart apart
So that I could fix it onto yours
My heart is worthless
If it doesn’t work with you
Carefully I took it [my heart] apart
Finding the right place to put it on yours
Our hearts beat the and rhythm
And keeping one another calm
I took apart my heart
To show you everything
As everything that I have to offer
Only works when you and I are one
I took my heart apart
So that I could fix it onto yours
As I only hope when your heart sleeps
[For tonight or forever more]
Mine too will sleep with you.
A glorious day to walk
With you in mind
And by my side
A glorious day
Like when I met you
In a class of your own
A glorious day
Is never far away
When I am with you
A glorious day
[As I close my eyes]
Breathing in the cold crisp air
A glorious day
All because
Life is better with you.
You are my bliss
But I do miss
Your deep eyes
When they hide
Taking a moment
I feel like a component
Just putting things together
For another moment
But I want enjoyment
With every moment with you
To happen as I live now
For I am more than you think
As Myers-Briggs admits
I’m an introvert
But I love for now
And feel for you always
My introverted ways
Give me time to think
And ponder your beauty
With your glorious looks
Behind your deep closed eyes
Opposites attract
Maybe even attach
But we combine
As defined in love
I adore you
But keep the door ajar
As I'm never far
From walking through
To you my bliss
For you I will run, shout
Whenever you are in doubt
Please just open your eyes
And I’ll glide my way to you
Please just open your eyes
Your beautiful beautiful eyes
As help is here
So never be in fear my dear
I love for now
And feel for you always
So in our own ways
Let’s introvert our thoughts
And come together as one.
