    A LOVE LIKE THIS

    I wasn't looking for love but it was Love that came and found me
    I'm drowned in emotions for the power of Love's presence surrounds me
    Lost for words because I cant explain how it came
    It shone in like sunshine in the midst of my rain
    He just walked up and made himself home, I didn't think he was my type
    My heart did cartwheels while my mind wondered if my tears he could wipe
    My eyes flashed a vacancy sign longing to fill the room that had been vacant for so long
    My mind was telling me no but the signals from my body were way too strong
    When Love called my name my soul couldn't help but to answer
    Mind,body, spirit this love is spreading like cancer
    When Love walked by he was sharp, he was clean
    Appearance sweet, his hair was neat, and that walk of his was mean
    But Love needed love and love is what I had to give
    But without returned love from this man I call Love I would not want to live
    A soft word, a tender touch, a gentle kiss, those are the things I thought I did not miss
    Lord, help my soul for I've never known a love like this.....

    Love came along during a time when I needed love the most
    His energy and vibrancy made me what to draw close
    It was as though I was just learning to fly and I took off too fast
    Ready to run, hide, I simply wanted to evade my dark past
    I was going through changes and Love jumped right in and assumed his role
    Love stood up as my soldier and took full control
    It was as though the flame in my soul flickered out without a fight
    And along comes Love- my friend, my match, my very light
    Though I didnt readily express it I knew Love was the one
    Because through my darkness Love represented my sun
    I would've never thought our relationship would go this far
    But you see Love is a fighter, a pursuer, He is my shining star
    My feelings for Love have grown so deep
    That often when I think of Love I can barely even sleep
    It has to be magic, a spell, the work of a wiz
    for truly i have never known a love like this....

    Since Love has found me never again do I want to live without him
    I need him like my soul needs this layer of skin
    Without love in my life I was going down and I mean way under
    And then came Love my silence in this crazy world of thunder
    I want love and need love to always grace my life
    That's why I accepted when Love asked me to be his wife
    I wanted to send Love this special thought
    And I didnt want it to come from any card I had bought
    Sure I couldve went to Hallmark but that wouldn't have been real
    For not one card they've ever printed could express to Love what it is that I feel
    So it's to this man I call love that I send this wish
    Thank you Love for showing me a love like this.

    I guess real love does exist, yet how long does it take to captivate the heart and eyes of those scorn by bitter doings and sayings of love gone wrong. How much more must i endure before i too find a love so gracious and pure. My heart is all a glow from movies and songs of love gone wrong then that day will come where i too shall be with one to call my own and look in her eyes as we both glow, yet until that day i wont look nor wonder, just hope and pray that i too can obtain favor from the LORD from finding a good thing

    this one moved me, very beautiful, sweet.. very real written..

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
