Times of Love and Hope

Times of Love and Hope


"Fates Entwined Are Not Denied"




From My Heart


Hope keeps us moving on...without it we are lost. We find hope in dreaming, in faith, in the steadfastness of what we do have and appreciate, in being able to visualize a better future...and especially in love, our tie to something beyond ourselves.


If We Were Free

If we were free
I would come to you
With open arms, and
With sweet caresses
I would touch your soul
And adore your body
And join with you
In passion and love.

If we were free
I would welcome
The secrets of your heart
The secrets of your touch
I would open myself
To all the pleasure and
All the danger of
Love finding a way

If we were free
I would give up the freedom
To become one with you
To feel and share
The tenderness and power
Of bodies and souls and hearts
Meeting through a lifetime
Of exquisite communion.

But time and distance,
Choices of the past,
Leave no clear path to you,
So, in dreams I touch
What life does not offer,
In dreams, hope still remains
And keeps my spirit alive
While I search for a way.

Some day, I promise, some day.



Destiny

You have been but a moment
In my lifetime
Yet you have been an eternity
In my soul.
In the present is found
The common past,
And the dreams of tomorrow
May come at last.
For my soul is refreshed
And reminded
That time and distance are
Insignificant
When like spirits touch,
However briefly.
Destiny is fulfilled.



With You

When I am with you,
There is no thought
Of the rest of the world;
All that exists is
The warmth of your touch,
The beat of your heart
Against mine,
Soft words of love
And a sweet caress
Reaching to my soul.
And from that moment,
When time stands still
And we two are alone
On this earth,
Comes a memory that
Lasts forever.



I Wonder

Today I wonder
Where you are and
What you are doing,
Hoping there will be
A moment
When we can meet
And talk of dreams,
Wishing our paths will cross
And the timing will be right
To nourish growing feelings
And explore the possibilities.
I wonder if there will be a moment
When our hearts touch
Though our hands cannot
Strengthening the tie
That now exists between us
In absolute amazement
I ask myself
How this has come to be.
