The Heart

Love isn't love until you give it away. John H. MacDonald Jr.

  • Simple Thoughts

    Two people bound by love
    Sharing each other’s dreams
    Hoping to find what seems
    To be the gift from above

    Struggling to make things better
    Concerned over meaningless pasts
    Trying to lock down love in time
    To be sure it will always last

    Anxiously awaiting the future
    Trying to peek through the door
    Searching for a glimpse of hope
    The hope of having more

    Hand in hand in heart and mind
    Compelled that they knew of
    The invulnerable force of simplest kind
    Which binds them together in love…

  • Memories

    Memories are something of the past
    Thoughts of things that didn’t last
    You remember friends
    And you cherish them
    They’re the last thing on earth
    You’d want to lose

    You always use to have good times
    And they never cost you a dime
    You went here and there
    Played your games and changed your hair
    And did things only you would ever know

    But you’ve got yourself some memories
    Of people, places and things you’ve seen
    Don’t let go
    You don’t wish to sow
    A new lifetime’s crop of memories

    Memories are something of the past
    Thoughts of things that didn’t last
    Those dear the most
    You hold so close
    They’re the last thing on earth you’ll ever lose…

  • The Hourglass

    Oh the sound of sands
    Falling through the hands
    Of time
    Come take me away
    Give me hope and save
    My life

    For when the hourglass runs dry
    The time will come to say goodbye
    And they will come to take me away

    Just a few more laughs
    Is all that I ask
    Of you
    It tears me apart
    But I give my heart
    To you

    Come to me and say goodbye
    For when the hourglass runs dry
    They will come…

  • Every Minute

    As every minute passes by
    I long to see your face
    To be inside your deepest thoughts
    To feel your warm embrace

    As every minute slips away
    I long to touch your skin
    To see the happiness in your eyes
    And the love that lies within

    Every night without you
    Is like a book with a missing page
    An actor without a stage
    Every night without you
    Is like a picture without a frame
    A fire without a flame
    I’m wanting you
    I’m missing you
    I’m without you
    I’m loving you…
