I See Only You

There are some people who will go the distance. Just to see so many beautiful places and go on to say! How beautiful those places were. But I can travel the world, and see so many beautiful things. But nothing that beautiful will ever compare to you. There are some people that will stay up just to see the sunrise. And sigh at their amazement! But I can look at the sunrise and know that it means nothing without you. There are people who at night will stare up into the heavens; just to see the stars shining bright. As I only look into the heavens, I know that there is only one perfect star out there. That lights up my life! What I am telling You is; There is nothing in this world, that will ever capture; it's beauty; the way it does when I see only you!

With This Ring

The stars were shining bright, the moon was beaming softly. Filling my room with such light! Overwhelmed I dropped to my knees. Bowing my head,I began to pray. "Dear Lord send someone my way!" I still remember the first time I saw you, thanking God for granting my request. Looking at you and holding you close to my heart. He sent me the greatest blessing, He sent me you! As i walk towards you, on this very special day. I look at you, my most preciouse gift, kneeling down before you I take your hand in mine. I can't imagine living life without You and Me. So I will ask: With this ring;will you marry me?

Efrain-" My Angel"

Why did you have to leave me? All alone, I am lost without you. Everywhere I go are the places we went together. I carry you in my heart and in my thoughts, but still that isn't enough for me. Wishing on stars that I could some how bring you back to me. Wanting you to come and fill that empty place that was once alive. But all the wishing that I did, didn't send you knocking on my door. Like it was before! As time passed I have begun to realize that you are gone forever. God had only lent you to me. You were my angel passing through.

Unspoken Words

I sat in my room today going through pictures and found one of you. You left me with unspoken words. You left me too soon. When we said good-bye that day; I never thought it would be forever! I know if I could talk to you now then here's I would say: I love you, I miss you, why couldn't you stay? I wish I could turn back time and tell you these unspoken words I never got to say.

Only A Dream

He came back to me in my dreams "I left you that day not knowing we had run out of time. I just want you to know I loved you and wanted to spend my whole life with you.Not knowing that I would be leaving this earth way too soon."Tears filled my eyes as I realized,he had come to say good-bye.As he turned to go I pulled him back saying the words in my heart."Please don't leave,I love you,miss you and want you to stay!"He sadly shook his head;"I am sorry my love,but I must be on my way for God is waiting for me. We shall one day see each other again."I awoke with a start,tears on my face.It was only a dream.
