My-Eternal-Memories

I was in love with you Before I knew I was. Before I realized why I try to Make you smile just because. It’s easy to be blind to emotion, To ignore the way you feel. Way too easy to look away, Than to acknowledge what is real. It’s hard work to reach acceptance, Harder still to make a change. It’s a wonder if it’s worth it, When your life gets rearranged. With all that would have to happen, With all the decisions to be made. I can understand the want to pretend That all those feelings fade. I know it’s hard to do, Believe me I understand. I held the same fears inside, When I too took my stand. I can&rs

It's always magic, Peering up at the starlit night Fighting the shivers Just to spend another moment with you Your eyes lighting up with laughter Your lips pulling into that knowing grin I'm hooked, affection, like moonlight, Pours out from my heart for you. I know you see it, I know you feel it. It's a dangerous dance we dare, Standing side by side at such a length. Sweet nothings, nothings, nothings. You whisper like the wind, Catches me and spins my senses. Makes breathing harder than it should be. Yes, sometimes you take my breath away. And I tell you with a glance, How I long for a mere touch To start a slow burn in

The world is rough, and cruel and hard. I know sometimes; it feels so easy to let it win. But you are beyond that. You are stronger than that. I know it, because I've seen it. A heart so kind, a mind so quick, You are a treasure, if you only knew how valued. My heart aches to see such tarnish formed from time, On the golden glow that is your smile. Your tenderness worn over time and trials, You've become so jaded. Rise up! Pull together! You may not be immune to the siren call of self doubt, But you can resist and find triumph in your show of strength. Alas, I realize you are merely mortal, but so much more besides. You are bui

You are an island, my place of peace. It seems only with you that I find serenity. When I'm lost or angry or weak, There you are. You save me from me. I never knew how wrapped up in you I was. Until now when I look around and all I want to see is you. And when I only get to have you with me in spirit or in thoughts I wither. Mere thoughts are no longer enough. I want all of you. Not just the smiles and laughter, but the trials and tears. I want to run the gamut of everything with you. Because anything less, just isn't enough for me. I suppose that makes me selfish. And I'm okay with that. And I hope that you will be too. Becaus

Waving gaily, emerald spun Glowing softly in the sun Haloed lightly by the rays Holding fast you spend your days Watching, fixed upon your light A darling splendor to my sight Dust, like glitter swirl and shine Create a daydream only mine Breathing slowly in tranquil peace Gaze so lovingly at the trees Blanketed by that warming glow I sit lulled by your brilliant show Desire strong to be lost in time To be held in this moment so sublime To know a moment so pure as this Is to know an eternity of perfect bliss

New to me, A founded way. An unpaved road, In black and grey. Though no light, Is ready there. Why not chance it, This blatant dare. Lack it I, The courage to travel? To see this through, The shadows unravel. A single step, Does a journey make? That very first step, Is a dare I'll take.

Benjamin Jackerson leaned over to get into his limousine after he left the office. His work day was over meaning it was nearing midnight.  He had just closed the deal to buy out a company.  It had taken much of his patience to scare the other man into selling or being forced into bankruptcy. Benjamin watched the lights of the building as his limo driver sped down the vacant late night Chicago streets. The lights a myriad of what seemed to be shattered stained glass windows before his eyes. He watched them flow by, his vision blurring as his mind went the way of the lights, flashing away into the past. He saw his father, a big business big
