Life Lessons

I have learnt so much in my life
That there is always a lot more to learn
I have learned to be patient
I have practiced kindness
Selfish giving is the pillar of my existence

I have learnt so much in my little short life
To be skeptical of all the things around you
And not be fooled easily
I have learned to be strong
To be an independent thinker

I have learnt so much in my happy and carefree life
To be responsible and take nothing or no one for granted
I have learned to be righteous
And to make God the central being in my life
Living each day like there will be no tomorrow

I have learnt so much in my love life
To love with all my heart
Take commitment seriously
Make compromises
And do all things in love

Open letter to my one true love

Dearest Andrew

Every time I look into your eyes, your picture or for real, it makes me realize that you are that someone - My only one. I feel it in my heart that we belong together and I want to be with you forever. I know it was fate that you are my soul mate, my only love.

I truly miss you darling and often wonder why you had to go. I remember our first kiss of how ever since I have felt so much bliss. I am consumed by emotion whenever you are near me and wish that we could stay in love forever. Darling you are that someone, my only one.

It feels so right whenever we hold each other tight and I long to spend my night in your arms enjoying all your charms.

I miss you Andrew and want to see you soon!

Your darling forever
Anneke

Oh how I love you

Unbroken

Unbroken is my love for him
A chain of love that started with a chance encounter
One filled with promises of happy times ahead

Unbroken is the joy I bring to him
To make him laugh
And not worry about the challenges that lie ahead

Unbroken is the faith I have in him
Of being the good partner
The caring friend

Unbroken is the peace I find in him
To love like there is no tomorrow
And that there is more joy that there will be sorrow

Unbroken is my promise to him
To be the friend he had always wanted
The girl he had always dreamed of

Today I promise to do everything
To make our love remain...
Unbroken and everlasting.

Of memories and me

I remember the way he kissed my lips
The way he held me close
I remember the gentle squeeze
And won't forget the tight hugs

I memorize your love notes
Read your cards all the time
I look at your picture
And I am filled with emotion

I look in your eyes
And I see the man I love
Your smile warms my heart
And the memories keep me going

A Lover's Prayer

Dear God
I thank you for sending true love my way
And I hope it grows stronger with each passing
As I kneel here before you Lord
I pray that this is divine love

I ask for your blessings
For devotion, commitment and understanding
As we are miles apart
Give us strength to remain true

The temptations will come our way
But Lord let us not stray
Keep us firmly planted
In the love we found
