Love

I Will Stay

A poets heart, a woman I see,
someone very close to me,
she is LIFE as the best I know;
She is who keeps me from wanting to go
to the pits of dark where dankness lives,
and now here I stay because she gives
all of her to me each day...
For you my love, I will always stay!

Love

My Heart

Take my tender heart in your hand,
Feel it beat, to the rhythm of your soul,
Take it, because with you I understand
That only with you am I ever whole.

Love

Wondering...

Sitting here alone,impatiently waiting,
Wondering if your heart and mine, are debating;
Take him in, or throw him away....
Tell him to leave, or ask him to stay......

An Angel Is What You Are

And Thank You For Looking Upon Me..

As I stood looking into the darkness of the night
A light appeared, so beautiful and so bright;
An angel came and took me in her arms
out of the cold, forever to be warm.

My Friend

God bless you my beautiful and cherished friend.
May his angels hold and guide you now and forever on
and may you find the greatest and most wonderful love
to have and to hold in the year that soon will be here.
All my love

"Love"

Love.... the feeling we all seek....
how easy it would be to fall in love with you...
how easy it would be to lie at your feet,
on my knees.... hope and admiration in my eyes,
like a little puppy, seeking your love and affection....
How easy that would be...

It would be so easy and feel so natural.... ;-)

My Love..

Resting in your arms in the meadow of love,
looking at the stars and the moon up above.
My head is resting on a soft womans breast
as her fingers are gently stroking my chest.

I look in her face in the light of the moon,
and see only love, no sorrow or gloom,
I see in her eyes the reflection of me
and know it is all she is wanting to see.

So happy I am as we lie there as one,
all through the night till the rise of the sun.
On the petals of roses she made to our bed
and gently, so tender I'm caressing her head.

I tell her I love her, I hold her so tight,
my woman, my poem, so loving so right
there in my arms as we kiss one more kiss
entering forever our heavenly bliss.

Love

"Tender"

Tender is the flower that is touching my heart,
tender is the sorrow at beeing apart;
tender is the longing to be here with you
while tender is the need for a love ever true.

Tender are the moments that we spend as one
and tender are your eyes, as bright as the sun.
Tender are the dreams of that wonderful day
when tender we touch and our hearts start to play.

Tender is the image of you in my mind,
tender is your touch that so often I find
so tender on my heart, caressing my soul,
tenderly giving me love ever whole.

"Footprints"

Footprints
in the sand of time.

Teardrops
in the ocean of eternity.

Fingerpaintings
made by a loving child.

Unity
of two hearts.

Contact
made by two souls.

Endless bliss.

Songs are sung,
poetry recited,
kisses are kissed,
hands reach out
across space and time.

Love flows
where we go.

Flowers bloom
where we walk.

Birds sing
where we whisper words of love.

You and I

Love Gusti

Love

My Heart..

My heart has walked many a path so perilous and cold,
my lips have trembled as I wanted to cry out for a hand
to come and to hold me; to support me and to hold,
someone unafraid, someone who will understand
my fears of falling, of loosing my painful grip,
my fears of falling, of my feet beginning to slip.

I have always been lonely afraid of the night
while looking for that someone to grace me
with tender love and those loving eyes so bright
and the caring arms to forever embrace me
to make me feel loved and wanted like I
want just to love and to want; not to cry.

Sometimes a love would come caressing my heart
telling me words that elate and bring joy.
But all too often it just tore me apart
making me feel like a thrown away toy,
making me feel like I should just let it all end;
making me feel I would break and not bend.

So you with your kisses so tender and so sweet
my heart is trembling fearing what's to come.
I have layed it down there on the ground at your feet
in hope that you will come and you will save it from
all the pain in my life, all the sadness and the sorrow,
and that you will share it with me each and every tomorrow.

Love Gusti

In the Darkness

I stood in the darkness,
dawn was there in the east.
My heart was filled with nothing,
a meal for the beast.

A sacrificial goat:
I was ready just to die
and the only fear in my mind
was that none would ever cry.

But as I stood there in the darkness
I noticed this faint little star
getting brighter every moment
comming to me from afar.

And as the beast came lurching for me
I was caught in a shimmering light
I thought it was death embracing me
to take me from this darkest night.

But I heard the roar of the furious beast
screaming at the loss of it's pray.
I felt myself swept from this darkest pit
and into the light of day.

I closed my eyes, my heart was raging
the fear was gone and there was peace
all around me something so gentle
was making me feel at ease.

I was taken and put on a cloud
so fluffy and tender to touch.
I fell asleep and there into my dream
came the woman I needed so much.

She stood there in her clothes of silk
and I knew that my star I had found
She was the one who had swept me away
and put me on sacred ground.

Slowly the silk fell away to the cloud
and my naked love I got to behold
and what she gave me on that day
is more precious than all the worlds gold.

She gave me her love, she gave me her heart,
she gave me her body and became my muse.
I gave her my love, I gave her my heart,
and I'll give her all she may ever choose.

Love
