YOU TAKE MY BREATH AWAY

You have always been able to read my eyes
My words could never express what was in my heart
And the fear of getting hurt was my reason for that
But you could see through me and were patient
When we meet, my heart grows with love for you
I feel a renewed joy and by your smile, I can tell
that you can feel it also, as you look into my eyes
When alone, I feel you with me, watching me
as I spend that time daydreaming of us
I knew I loved you the moment I saw you
When I think of you, you take my breath away
as if mine were the only breath that could sustain you..

ON A BEAUTIFUL SPRING DAY

I met you on a Sunday, on a beautiful Spring day
You watched me from the back of the church
I just walked by you and never uttered a word.

Everything was blooming and you drove by me
You asked if I’d walk by the lake with you
On that beautiful Spring day, I smiled and nodded, “yes”
You picked me flowers and I cherished those wild flowers.

Time went by and like flowers, so bloomed our love
A year later on a beautiful Spring day, we married
Holding a bouquet of Spring flowers, I whispered, “I Do”.

One day you got ill on a beautiful Spring day
With all the beautiful flowers blooming, you passed away.

Years later, I stand here on a beautiful Spring day
All the beautiful flowers blooming now remind me of you.

Maybe on a beautiful Spring day with the sun shining
You’ll be holding wild flowers for me at Heaven’s gates.

And we will walk together once again, forever…
On a Beautiful Spring Day…

On a Beautiful Spring Day

IF…
 
If I could touch your heart
Would you know that it was me?
If it were possible to capture your thoughts
Would it be me that I would see?

If I reached out to take your hand
Would it touch you to your core?
If I whispered to you softly, “I Love You”
Would you whisper back, “I’m Yours” ?

If I looked into your beautiful eyes
Would you hold your gaze with mine?
If you closed your eyes and felt a kiss
Would you be able to define?

I’ve tried to find ways to tell you
But the words I couldn’t find
So tell me, if I could touch your heart
Would you promise to be mine?©
