Seasons of my love

I love you all seasons
When it is summer, my love grows even hotter
It grows not cold during the winter as I am warmed by your ever-caring heart
At springtime all is just fine
It is autumn and I can still see the blossoms and smell the sweet fragrance
Of a love that has passed through all seasons
And one that requires no reason to be kept alive

On being with you

When I'm with you
it feels like I am in a dram.
When I'm with you
I can do just about anything.
When I'm with you I just want to say...
How much more I love you with each passing day.
When I'm with you
I forget about the days I'm not.
When I'm with you
I can't help but be thankful for what I've got.
Because when I'm with you
every moment becomes a dream come true.
I love you!

If

I would do it all over again
And I am assured there will be no pain
My heart has found sweet rest
In you, moreso when I lay my head on your chest

The pulsating rhythm of heartbeats
Will live on in our lives
I love you more and more
Your sincerity I will forever adore

Personal Note

My gosh I am so excited. Grinning from ear to ear. We will spend our first Christmas together yippie. Had to let you in - big silly grin!!

Personal Note

I woke up in a rather romantic mood this morning and tho my beau is just a heartbeat away I am missing him like crazy so here I am singing this song.


THE POWER OF LOVE

The whispers in the morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling like thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake

’cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can
Lost is how I’m feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside’s too
Much to take
That all ends when I’m with you

Even though there may be times
It seems I’m far away
Never wonder where I am
’cause I am always by your side

’cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can
Lost is how I’m feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside’s too
Much to take
That all ends when I’m with you

We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
Of the power of love
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear
Suddenly the feeling that I can’t go onIs light years away

’cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can
Lost is how I’m feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside’s too
Much to take
That all ends when I’m with you
@ Celine Dion

Artistry

I have always wanted
Like canvas to be painted
To glow
Even go on show
As a picture perfect love
Touched by the finest angels, selected naturally from above

There was no canvas
No glove, no paintbrush
All he needed was love
To paint his finest piece of art
To ensure we will never be apart

With care and deep concentration
He slowly colours my world
Splashed with colours, symbolic of his love
There were bright colours and subtle ones too
There were pastels, and he though he loves it, there was no blue

Its glistening now
Bright and shiny
Glowing both day and night
It's a picture perfect painting
What a great artist is he!

Surrender

What sweet surrender
To hear the words
I surrender to you
Giving freely
My heart, my soul
Take me I'm Yours

I can still hear the laughter
Still see the smile
And I thought for a while
What sweet surrender
It surely is one I will always treasure

Ann @ 2004

September 2004 on the road to meeting the guy of my dreams.

Naked

He had eyes that could see through my heart from a thousand miles
His lips could soothe my chafed soul
The hands offered nothing but a gentle touch
Strip down to your soul
I would love to touch you the way you are touching me

Ann @ 2004

Do Not Disturb

The sign on her heart read "Do not disturb"
I am deeply in love and do not want to be perturbed
To hell with your mushy talk
I dont care what you have to say

May I call you back?
"I know you wont return my call"
Yes and I dont want to ever hear from you at all!

I am not bitter
Call me a quitter
But you are barking up the wrong tree
If you are ever thinking about you and me

Ann @ 2004

Radical

The radical in me
As always wanted to be free
Does it, or it's my intuition that says that to me?

I'm brave, I'm bold, I am me
I have only a few things untold
But if you know me well, there is no secret I wouldn't tell
And if you think less of me, I am not scared to tell you go to hell

Once upon a time I yearned to be touched
To be cuddled, be kissed and ...drift off into the romantic land
That only naked souls know

You are now a part of my radical world
I have no secrets, no closet skeletons
As with you, they all unfurl

Ann @ 2004

Real Love

Today I pause to reflect
On the importance of love and being in love
It is a very good feeling to say the least
Those who love not
Or fake it
Is missing an important element in his or her life

To be in love is simply magical
To be loved in return is a blessing
Who says the one you love will love you back?
When that happens, pray that it is eternal

Heartbreaks are a dime a dozen
True love is not the easiest to find
But if you believe in the capacity of your heart, your sincerity, your affinity
When it beckons to you, follow it to the path it has created for you
It is yours to have and to hold

Ann @ 2004

Escape Route

I do not want to pass by another day
And I hope the pain it has caused me will soon go away
I have to dig deep in my soul
To remove the sights I see each day

Today she is in pain and anguish
Was it the news she heard
As she threw herself to the ground
With everyone else just standing around

I felt her pain
I saw her cry
As she called out to the Lord, please make me die
How long will this pain last?

I say a quiet prayer for her
And I still see her through my rear view mirror
Weeping and in deep sorrow
Dear God please take away her pain by tomorrow

Ann @ 2004

Fence

From behind the zinc fence she peered
Wondering what's on the streets of Kingston today
She lives in a world, best known to her kind
But ignorance of their circumstances is rampant

The Ghetto, mental or real
Their pain I cannot say I feel
But I know, its just not the same
Across the entire society

They are different, but are they really?
Are they products of their circumstances?
Or masters of their destiny?
Could it one day change?

Ann @ 2004

After all these years, now you know who is spilling her guts!

Anew

Why settle for less when you can get the best?
So easy we end up on the second playing field
And may just be wondering is this the best deal
For my heart, my time, for me?

I have found the best and I deserve no less
Its time to renew the faith
To start brand new
To forget what was or could have been

It is simply beautiful, almost magical
To be connected heart to heart
To know that of her world you will always be a part
Shed the skin and start anew

As if you havent done so!!

Ann @ 2004

Diamond Heart

He had a heart like a diamond
Glisteningly bright
Illuminating my heart
It reaches for my soul
What a beauty it is to behold

I see the reflection through the sharpest cut
Of lovers dancing in the rain
Kissing and having fun
Bonding and moving upwardly, in love

Ann @ 2004

Faith

I sow a seed of faith today
Hoping that our love will grow into something even more beautiful
I feel a deeper connection, far beyond seduction
This deep emotion runs through my vein

Life has no guarantees
But of my sincerity you can be sure
To you, I will be true
And I will do my best never to make you blue

You have captured my heart
And I do not want us to be apart
I pledge my love to you
And it feels so good to be loved by you

Ann @ 2004

Softly

Come to me softly
Hold me closer so that I can feel you breathe
Take me darling I have been wanting you, needing you
Loving you for some time
Take all of me,
To you I give me unreservedly!

The woman in me needs the man in you
My body yearns for your touch
It's a touch like no other
My body is on fire
You can quench my deepest thirst
As you have done so many times before

Take me darling
Don't stop now, it is great
I close my eyes and I am consumed by you
I see the Heavens and I feel paradise enter my world
Dashing into elation is so easy when I am with you
You break the woman in me so many times, so easily

Falling in love with you is effortless
It is so natural, so real
If only this moment would last
I will be forever happy
I give myself to you freely
Take me I'm yours!

Ann @ 2004

Sweet Surrender

The memories of childish laughter still linger in her head
The feelings of deep emotion wash her joyful heart
It's a feeling of sweet surrender
She reflected on the secret vibe they shared
It was a promise to be just what she could be
With no fear no care in the world
But to escape it sweet devotion
To surrender so freely to a feeling she cannot escape.

He looked at her and she was captivated by the smile
It was instant attraction and she thought for a while
Could this be the start of something beautiful?
As time went by she was more convinced
That his spirit had captured her wandering soul
And if only he knew that he has gently etched his name on her heart
And she gently said in reply "take me, I'm yours."

@ Ann 2004

The first time

He did it and she watched with glee
It something he never did before and I am happy he did it with me
It brought smiles more like chills
I hope he will do it again as he is mastering the art
Of reaching that special place in my heart

Warmth

I see the glow in your eyes
I feel the warmth from within
Despite the temperature outside
I am warmed by the rays of your heart

As hearts dance to a similar beat
The lips whisper how sweet
If only you could hear the melody
The notes surely would chime like a sweet lullaby
And I dare you to ask why
to be continued
@ Ann 2004

Higher

Take me higher, take me higher
I feel the passion in your kiss
I feel the warmth in your embrace
To pull back now my heart would be misplaced

I wonna believe you love me
I wonna believe you want me
I wonna believe you value me
And I wonna believe you will need me

I escape not from your embrace
Worse I would hate if you gave up the chase
It is in the way you look in my eyes, the way you hold me close
That make me realize you take me higher everytime I hold you near

Pleasure

The pleasure is all mine
To see you at that moment in time
When I feel like a child
And please understand if seem a little wild

It is a happiness
With which I dont want to mess
To chat, to laugh, to be quiet and to play
And I hope it will cause no dismay

@ Ann 2004

Rush

Slowly he said
It takes time
To heal
To feel
To move beyond the physical

It is true
As we all know
It is a process, not an event
To know
To understand
To accept
To discover the things that are uniquely you or intimately me

It was a pregnant pause
Of reflection
Of introspection
It was worth the attention
@Ann 2004

The way you make me feel

It's in the way I feel you coming to me, even in dreams
You drift in slowly, teasingly like a wave rushing in and out
Washing over the sands of my heart, leaving your trails
Each wave reaching in just a little further before receding
I lay there waiting motionless for you to cover all of me

It's in the way your eyes see me leaving me defenseless
The merest glance of your eyes from across the room is a beam of angels light mixed with the devils sly smile
Its glow caresses me in peace, yet inspires such desire
Breath will not come and I hear each thundering heart beat
It's in the way your voice utters leaving me lost in time
The melody of the words rising and falling like harp strings
Each one plays only for my ear, and vibrates through me
Longing to hear you once more

Tranquility

Tomorrow I wonna sail the high seas
Maybe go to the cays
It is tranquilizing to look beyond the ocean
With absolutely no sense of emotion
To see life as just living
And maybe not even believing

Kahlil Gibran on Love

When love beckons to you, follow him,
Though his ways are hard and steep.
And when his wings enfold you yield to him,
Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.
And when he speaks to you believe in him,
Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.

Imagined

Real or unreal
Ordinary or surreal
It takes to flight
In the middle of the night

Waiting with open arms
To feel the wonder of your charms
Must I insist
Guess not as you are sure to resist

It does not escape me
Not to just let things be
That I will sure to do
And its all so certain you will do too

@ Ann 2004

Solace

I like to take some time away
To reflect on a number of things I dare say
Good, bad, not so good and things I would wish could be better

Of romance, love, family and friendship
I value the little things in life
The simple pleasures if you will

But life cant be always simple
As there will be obstacles and mine fields
Take them one by one and dont forget to count your blessings

Up Date

My Lord it has been a loooong time since I have posted anything to this site...just sooooo busy but relax in time we will be up and running!

Wet

I am kissed by the raindrops
Caressed by the wind

As I hear the pitter patter
I feel the gentle rain

Getting back to nature
Sure wont drive me insane

Personal Note

It feels so good to have the comfort of the one you love just when you need that person

Thought for Today

Happiness keeps you sweet, trials keeps you strong, sorrows keeps you human, failure keeps you humble, sucess keeps you glowing, but only God keeps you going.

From my window

I watched from my kitchen window
As the lights go out in the city
It was a beauty to behold
And it reminds me of stories untold

As I watched the day brightens
My expectation of the day heightens
I will approach today as I have always done
With zeal and determination

Summer

Summer is my worst time of year
It is the time of year mostly I fear
I have had the most challenges during this time
And oh how I wish next summer could be a bumper

Do I wish for it?
Yes I sure
Not to lose another special person
After summer 2004

Deck of Cards

Falling in love

No one falls in love by choice, it is by CHANCE.
No one stays in love by chance, it is by WORK.
And no one falls out of love by chance, it is by CHOICE.

Today I made one of the most important steps in my life. Will fill you in later

Personal Note

Hi Fans

It is not that I have not been thinking lately. It is just that I have been busy with work and new love in the life so just give me a few weeks and you will get your daily inspiration.

lots of love!!

Thought for Today

Be ruled by your head and not your heart

Revelations

Dear.....
You know not of this blog but this note is for you. It was never my intention to use nor abuse you. In my heart we cannot belong. This song sums up my feelings even tho there was no rain and the circumstances were different.

Strangers in the Night
Epilogue
It was a rainy night when he came into sight
Standing by the road, no umbrella, no coat
So I pulled up alongside and I offered him a ride
He accepted with a smile so we drove for a while
I didn't ask him his name, this lonely boy in the rain
Fate tell me it's right. Is this love at first sight?
Please don't make it wrong, just stay for the night
All I wanna do is make love to you
Say you will you want me too
All I wanna do is make love to youI've got loving arms to hold onto

So we found this hotel, it was a place I knew well
We made magic that night.
Oh, he did everything right
He brought the woman out of me, so many times, easily
And in the morning when he woke all I left him was a note
I told him I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden we planted a tree
Don't try to find me, please don't you dare
Just live in my memory, you'll always be there
All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I wanna do is make love to you
I've got loving arms to hold onto
Oh, oh, we made love
Love like strangers
All night long
We made love

Then it happened one day, we came round the same way
You can imagine his surprise when he saw his own eyesI
said please, please understand
I'm in love with another man
And what he couldn't give me
Was the one little thing that you can
All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I want to do is make love to you
Come on, say you will, you want me too
All I wanna do is make love to you
One night of love was all we knew
All I want to do is make love to you
Say you will, you want me too
All night long ...

Thought for Today

Let God be the only power in your life.

Thought for Today
People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Love them anyway!

- The Paradoxical Commandments by Dr. Kent M. Keith

The heart never lies. When one falls in love it feels good so when one must move on you can understand but one thing is for sure, the heart will go on.

My heart will go on
- Celine Dion

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
Near, far, wherever you areI believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're one
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold you
In my life we'll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Thought for Today

Spend quality time on the things that matter most in your life. And give of yourself with no expectation.

Personal Reflection

I have had the greatest love of my life
Fell in love with a great guy
What does one do when a great relationship has reached the end?
How does your broken heart mend?
I thought I had it but then its gone, gone forever

I woke up singing this song this morning:

I Hate You Then I Love You

I'd like to run away from you
But if I were to leave you I would die
I'd like to break the chains you put around me
And yet I'll never try

No matter what you do you drive me crazy
I'd rather be alone
But then I know my life would be so empty
As soon as you were gone

Impossible to live with you
But I could never live without you
For whatever you do 
For whatever you do I never, never, never
Want to be in love with anyone but you

You make me sad You make me strong
You make me mad
You make me long for you
You make me long for you

You make me live
You make me die
You make me laugh
You make me cry for you
You make me cry for you

I hate you
Then I love you
Then I love you
Then I hate you
Then I love you more
For whatever you do I never, never, never
Want to be in love with anyone but you

You treat me wrong
You treat me right
You let me be
You make me fight with you
I could never live without you

You make me high
You bring me down
You set me free
You hold me bound to you I hate you
Then I love you
Then I love you
Then I hate you
Then I love you more 
I love you more
For whatever you do
For whatever you do I never, never, never
Want to be in love with anyone but you

I never, never, never
I never, never, never
I never, never, never
Want to be in love with anyone but you
But you

Salute the God in all people and the God in them will respond to the Godliness in you and you will be happy.

Thought for Today

What you affirm for yourself, affirm for others!!

Wednesday Wondering

"Instead of harbouring negative feelings and staying uptight, make the decision to forgive, forget, and move on." - pg13 Dont Sweat the Small Stuff in Love by Richard Carlson and Kristine Carlson

Tuesday Time-out

Everything that goes out come back again.  Our thoughts and actions move in circles.

Monday Meditation
 
"The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him." Ralph Waldo Emerson

Friday Fascination

To get to tomorrow, you cannot cling to yesterday

Thursday Testimonial

The best evidence of our having the truth is our walking in the truth.

On Giving
                                     Kahlil Gibran

There are those who give little of the much which they have--and they give it for recognition and their hidden desire makes their gifts unwholesome.
And there are those who have little and give it all.
These are the believers in life and the bounty of life, and their coffer is never empty.

There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward.
And there are those who give with pain, and that pain is their baptism.
And there are those who give and know not pain in giving, nor do they seek joy, nor give with mindfulness of virtue;
They give as in yonder valley the myrtle breathes its fragrance into space.
Through the hands of such as these God speaks, and from behind their eyes He smiles upon the earth.

Wednesday Wisdom

The grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for. - Joseph Addison

Tuesday Thinking
 
Happiness is a journey, not a destination!

Friendship is not a Product
                          by Catherine Pulsifer
 
Friendship is not like a product to be used when you need it.
To be a friend means that you are willing to give yourself not only through the good times, but also during the bad times.
To be a friend means encourage strengths in others and accepting their weaknesses; in other words, accepting them for who they are.
In the end, to be a friend means giving freely and not expecting anything in return.

What is your definition of a friend? Do you live up to your own definition with your friends?

Kahlil Gibran on Love
 
When love beckons to you, follow him,   
Though his ways are hard and steep.   
And when his wings enfold you yield to him,   
Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.   
And when he speaks to you believe in him,   
Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.    
 
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you.
Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning.   
Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun,  
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.

Monday Thought
I shall be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.
                                                                Isaiah, Chapter 49, Verse 5

Thought for Today
 
Thoughts have great power. Thoughts are like seeds you plant in your mind.
The more you hold onto a particular thought, the more power you invest in it. Positive thoughts give us energy and strength. Negative thoughts rob us of power and make us feel tired and strained. We are by nature positive. Negativity is the result of faulty thinking. You can change if you want to. You can't control other people, situation or circumstances, but you can control what is going on inside you. It takes time to change and transform those old patterns of thinking.

Thought for Today
 
Give thanks for everything in your life. Everything that happens to you is for a reason and there is a lesson to be learnt.

Thought for Today 
 
You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

Misquoted
Today I tell myself "Girl you are strong, beautiful and smart". I feel positively better today...keep going girl.

Young Hearts Run Free

What's the sense in sharing this one and only life
Ending up, just another lost and lonely wife
You count up the years, and they will be filled with tears, oooh
Love only breaks up, to start over again
You'll get the babies, but you won't have your man
While he is busy loving every woman that he can, huh huh

Say I wanna leave a thousand times a day
It's easier said that done, when I just can't break away
Just can't break away

Young hearts, run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me (oooh)
Hmmm, my man and me
Young hearts, to yourself be true
Don't be no fool when loving is all there is (oooh)
I said I don't love you

It's high time, just one crack at life
Who we want to live in, trouble and strife
My mind must be free, to learn all I can about me
I'm gonna love me for the rest of my days
Caress the babies every time they say
Self resevation is what's really going on today, oooh

Say I wanna leave a thousand times a day
How can I turn loose
When you just can't break away (just can't break away)

Young hearts, run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me (oooh)
Oooh, my man and me
Whoa, young hearts, to yourself be true
Don't be no fool when loving is all there is (oooh)
I said I don't love you, hmmm

Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa

Young hearts, run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me (oooh)
Whoa, my man and me
Whoa, young hearts, to yourself be true
Don't be no fool when loving is all there is (oooh)
No, yeah aaah aaah aaah

Young hearts, run free...

@ Candi Station

A heartbreak can be dangerous. I found strength in this song by Whitney Houston

Try it on my own

(Verse 1)
I'm wiser now
Im not the foolish girl you used to know
So long ago
I'm stronger now
I've learned from my mistakes which way to go
And I should know
I put myself aside to do it in your way
But now i need to do it all alone

(Hook)
And I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don't care if I'm right or wrong
I'll live my life the way I feel no matter what I'll keep it real
You know
Time for me to do it on my own

(Verse 2)
It's over now
I can't go back to living through your eyes
To many lies
And if you dont know by now
I cant go back to being someone else
not anymore
I never had the chance to do things my way
So now it's time for me to take control

(Hook)
And I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don't care if I'm right or wrong
I'll live my life the way I feel no matter what I'm gonna keep it real
You know
Time for me to do it on my own

(Verse 3)
Oh, I start again go back to one
I'm running things in my way
cant stop me now I've just begun
Don't even think about
It there aint no way about it
I'm taking names go down the line
Yes I'm gonna take my turn
It's time for me to
Finally stand alone
Stand alone

(Hook)ad libs
I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don't care if im right or wrong
I'll live my life the way i feel no matter what I'm gonna keep it real
You know
It's time for me to do it

See I am not afraid to try it on my own
I don't care if im right or wrong
I'll live my life the way i feel no matter what I'm gonna keep it real
You know
It's time for me to do it on my own

Today

I was feeling very sad today
And truly hoped this pain would just go away
I have lost a friend
Strangely I never felt the friendship would end

I must call on my inner strength
To guide me the full length
I really hate to feel this way
And I just cannot take all this foray

I want to escape it all
Before my heart takes this major fall
Is it too late
To enter the Pearly Gate?

Anneke @2004

Everybody Plays The Fool
by Aaron Neville

Ok, so your heart is broken
You're sitting around mopin', cryin', cryin'
You say you even think about dying
Well, before you do anything rash, baby, dig this

Everybody plays the fool, sometime
There's no exception to the rule, listen baby
It may be factual, it may be cruel, I ain't lying
Everybody plays the fool

Fallin' in love is such an easy thing to do
But there's no guarantee that the one you love, is gonna love you
Oh, loving eyes they cannot see a certain person could never be
Love runs deeper than any ocean, it clouds your mind with emotion

Everybody plays the fool, sometime
There's no exception to the rule, listen baby
It may be factual, it may be cruel, I ain't lying
Everybody plays the fool

How can you help it, when the music starts to play
And your ability to reason, is swept away
Oh, heaven on earth is all you see, you're out of touch with reality
And now you cry, but when you do, next time around someone cries for you

Hey, everybody plays the fool, sometime
Use your heart just like a tool, listen baby
They never tell you so in school, I wanna say it again,
Everybody plays the fool

Everybody plays the fool, sometime
There's no exception to the rule, listen baby
It may be factual, it may be cruel, I ain't lying
Everybody plays the fool

Every plays the fool, sometime
There's no exception to the rule, listen baby
It may be factual, it may be cruel, I wanna say it again
Everybody plays the fool

Emotions

It's over and done
but the heartache lives on inside
And who's the one you're clinging to
instead of me tonight?

And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow wherever you go
I'll cry me a river that leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart

In the words of a broken heart
it's just emotion thats taking me over
Caught up in sorrow
lost in my song
but if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
don't you know there's nobody left in this world tohold me tight
nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight

I'm there at your side,
I'm part of all the things you are
But you've got a part of someone else
You've got to find your shining star

And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow wherever you go
I'll cry me a river that leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart

In the words of a broken heart
it's just emotion thats taking me over
Caught up in sorrow
lost in my song
but if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
don't you know there's nobody left in this world tohold me tight
nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight

And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow wherever you go
I'll cry me a river that leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart

In the words of a broken heart
it's just emotion thats taking me over
Caught up in sorrow
lost in my song
but if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
don't you know there's nobody left in this world tohold me tight
nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight

The Bee Gees

SHOW ME THE WAY BACK TO YOUR HEART

I remember days nights were never cold
I had you in my life
I had you here to hold
And I remember love warm as a summer day
But I lost you
And I lost my way
Now I'm in the rain
Begging you please, please

Baby won't you show me the way back to your heart
Let me see a sign to know if i'm close or far
Lead me back to the road that leads back to your arms
To your arms

Every night another lonely street I walk down alone
Searching for a light
Your light to lead me home
Leave a candle in the window
And let it shine for me
Take my hand and take these tears away
I can't take the pain
I'm on my knees, please

Baby won't you show me the way back to your heart
Let me see a sign to know if I'm close or far
Lead me back to the road that leads back to your arms
To your arms

Take my hand and take me in your arms
I'm out in the dark
Down on my knees, please

Show me the way back to your heart
Let me see a sign to know if I'm close or far
Lead me back to the road that leads back to your arms
To your arms
To your arms
To your arms

GLORIA ESTEFAN

Invasion

She spied
He lied
It was a love they shared deeply but something was wrong
You see when you commit, you must sumbit
To the things that are right and cease to do wrong
The heart is a tender organ and can withstand but little hurt

But to this day it has just been a bad part of the history
No one has said I am sorry
And they have together ruined a beautiful thing
Egos flare and hearts had better be aware
Not to just take a haitus and to go back to the same old ways

You cannot have the best of two worlds
You must either live in the present or the past
If you pledge your love and you then give it
In that giving you must also give up
They seek not to build a life with you but to fulfil passing fantasies

It hurts to know we have spent this much time and we continue to whine
Of invasion and cheating as if we dont belong
Cheating is wrong and so is invasion
A simple apology might not do it but then again it just might

Passions Afire

From my past he came like the rushing river
Oh so anxious to be with me
What we had was beautiful if only we could restart
Yes I need you too and you are here at the right time

You are here to provide an escape
To take me away from that which I fear
And for whom I no longer care
Reknidle my spirits, set me afire

I knew all along you had that skill
To send me wild even if I am ascending a hill
And no I am not on the pill, so I cant be all that of a free will
But I wonna enjoy you still

I havent felt like this in a long while
I love your lips, you hug my hips
Lips unite, hands searching, heart racing
Oh what passion, you are taking me on high

Yes yes oh how I long for you
And this time please promise me you will be true
I have always love and wanted you as you never made me blue
Just please promise me this time you will be true and I will really get to know you

Prayer fi mi friend

Dear Lord find him a fairy tale wife for me nuh, one who is foolish enough to ignore all his shortcomings, one who will allow him to flirt and splirt at will
One who will cook and wash and scratch him back
One who will say yes to everything even if he is going down the wrong road tell him he is on the right path
Find him a woman who will neva bruk him hawt

Send him a blind woman dear Lord
Who will not want to c him report caad
Who will ask him no questions so he will tell her no lie
Find him a woman oh God who free from stress and only wear long dress
Send him a fool who he can rule

God he is your son who needs some fun
These mercies I ask in your precious name and oh Lord deliver it and free me of all blame

Anneke @ 2004

In the following song I find great inspiration especially after a broken relationship

EVERYBODY HURTS SOMETIMES

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you’re sure you’ve had enough of this life, well hang on
Don’t let yourself go, everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong. now it’s time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you’ve had too much of this life, well hang on

’cause everybody hurts. take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. don’t throw your hand. oh, no. don’t throw your hand
If you feel like you’re alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you’re on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you’ve had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. and everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. so, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. you are not alone

(berry/buck/mills/stipe)

What you get is what you see

Some boys got the look of a greek adonis
Some boys try to talk you off your feet
Some boys they’re gods gift to woman
Some boys think they’re sweet enough to eat
Try to change the habit of a lifetime
Don’t even try
Cause when you cut down deeper than the icing
You realise

What you get is what you see
Ain’t nothing more to it
And if you wanna love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I don’t want your kind of love

Some guys got lips that you can’t help kissing
And some guys got a smile you can’t resist
Some guys gotta build a reputation
They just wanna add you to the list
You got a lot of physical attraction
I can’t deny
But can you guarantee me satisfaction
While I’m still waiting, waiting, waiting....

What you get is what you see
Ain’t nothing more to it
And if you wanna love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I don’t want your kind of love

So let me see your cards on the table
Before I buy
I always read the writing on the label
So give me reason to believe there’s more to you than meets the eye

Tina Turner

FAREWELL

One year ago today
At a quarter to midnight God took u away
We miss you Horace
And you will forever be in our hearts.

On Reason and Passion
Kahlil Gibran

Your reason and your passion are the rudder and the sails of your seafaring soul. If either your sails or your rudder be broken, you can but toss and drift, or else be held at a standstill in mid-seas.

For reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and passion, unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction.

Therefore let your soul exalt your reason to the height of passion, that it may sing;
And let it direct your passion with reason, that your passion may live through its own daily resurrection, and like the phoenix rise above its own ashes.

Cheating Hearts
These days, a virtual tryst can be just as damaging as a real one.

I'd Rather Leave

I'd rather leave while I'm in love
While I still believe
The meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and I were never meant to end

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
And somebody's heart gets broken
Usually it's mine
I don't want to take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I
Can't say goodbye

So if you wake and find me gone
Hey babe, just carry on
You see I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken, usually it's mine
I don't want to take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I can't say goodbye

So if you wake and find me gone
Hey babe, just carry on
You see I need my fantasy
I still believe
It's best to leave while I'm in love
I'd rather leave while I'm in love

(Carole Bayer Sager/Peter Allen)

Misquoted

Am I touching you without feeling you, is it realistically unreal?

What is right for me, for us

What is right for me is to be free and to let you be
I crave not attention, just to feel like I am truly wanted
I want to feel your presence in the true sense of the word
Lies no more I dont think I can endure
Just be true, be you even if it will make me blue

Let go off the past else our relationship will not last
Clean your closet of the secrets, the evidence I dont wonna know
I wont pretend I understand, because I really dont
I have never walked this road before and so the journey I will try to endure

I speak from my heart because of you, I truly want to be a part and not apart
Let us resolve to be free in our hearts and hands
To do the right thing and to act as if we knew God was beside us all the way
Knowing when we slip or did a bad deed

I need peace of heart, not to be wondering and worrying and finding something that cements the doubt
I hate doubts, they leave you forever guessing
Reassurance is the answer, but do you really do? Is it beyond you?

The following is one of the most sensuous songs I have heard and I love it. It is by Pointer Sisters.

Slow Hand

As the midnight moon, was drifting through
The lazy sway of the trees
I saw the look in your eyes, lookin' into mine
Seeing what you wanted to see
Darlin' don't say a word, cause I already heard
What your body's sayin' to mine
I'm tired of fast moves
I've got a slow groove...
On my mind

I want a man with a slow hand
I want a lover with an easy touch
I want somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I want somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

On shadowed ground, with no one around
And a blanket of stars in our eyes
We are drifting free, like two lost leaves
On the crazy wind of the night
Darlin', don't say a word, 'cause I already heard
What your body's sayin' to mine
If I want it all night
You say it's alright
We got the time

'Cause I got a man with a slow hand
I got a lover with an easy touch
I found somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I found somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand

If I want it all night
Please say it's alright
It's not a fast move
But a slow groove
On my mind

'Cause I got a man with a slow hand
I got a lover with an easy touch
I found somebody who will spend some time
Not come and go in a heated rush
I found somebody who will understand
When it comes to love, I want a slow hand
"Slow Hand"
by the Pointer Sisters.

I feel love. I am surrounded by love and it feels really good

Quoted

"When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight," Kahlil Gibran

I have been away for a little while and the pages have surely not been updated. Uh oh. but am now back and will be posting with regularity. Check it nuh!

A PERFECT REUNION.

That afternnoon when I accessed messenger and read your offline that you will be seeing me within a matter of weeks, my heart lept. I could not believe that after 9 months, I was gonna have my baby with me for a good three weeks. I was ecstatic! My mind drifted off into romance, into fun into all kind of things. Yes, you are mine and I am happy to have you with me.

It could not have been more beautiful. That weekend on some resort all by ourselves was one Eros would envy. It was filled with passion, desires, happiness, belonging, commitment and most of all with love.

I remember rushing into your arms and getting lost into a kissing embrace. I remember that gentle touch, that loving stare, I remember the passionate fire that was ignited. I was taken to the top and I exploded. Oh what love had filled my body. I loved your body, your lips, your fingers and you know what.

We made love. Love like never before. My heart met yours and we connected once again. Where were we, why were we apart all this time? I know it had to be. But I know sooner that later we will be together. Making love when we want to, doing anything we want. The beauty about parting is that it makes reuniting sweeter. I love you darling. I am sure you know, yes I do.

I will marry you, you will have my hand and heart in unison. You are my one true love. I will remain faithful to you 'til the end.

I am happy to be your, lover, friend, companion, wife to be.

Your Cheatin' Heart
- Hank Williams

Your cheatin' heart
Will make you weak
Your cryin' crimes
Try to sleep
But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheatin' heart
Will tell on you
When tears come down
Like fallin' rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart
Will tell on you
Your cheatin' heart
Will pain some day
And crave the love
You threw away
The time will come
When you'll be blue
But your cheatin' heart
Will tell on you
When tears come down
Like fallin' rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You're gonna walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart
Will tell on you
Your cheatin' heart
Is gonna tell on you

Saying goodbye is never an easy thing
But you never said, that you’d stay forever

Tranquil Villa

At Tranquil Villa he stood
Looking down at the green bay
From his abode in Iceland he was far away
But this time he has returned to stay

Excitement

I am excited of the thought
That after one long year, the wait will come to pass
Oh how pregnant am with expectation
And I am filled with anticipation
