So Smart

So Smart

What gives you the right,
You think you’re so smart.
You call me late at night,
And break my heart.

You tell me there’s someone new,
That you don’t want me anymore.
Why didn’t I have a clue,
I should have known the score.

You think you’re so slick,
With all your smooth talking ways.
Truth is, you make me sick,
It will all come back to you one of these days.

Someday late at night your phone will ring,
And you will answer the call.
Just as your heart begins to sing,
It will be slammed against the wall.

You will feel the pain inside,
The fisted grip in your chest.
As you realize you were taken for a ride,
After giving all of your best.

You will see into your past,
And wish that you had kept the one that felt your love mattered.
You will then realize at last,
That you left my heart torn and tattered.

Because in your vanity,
You forgot to guard your heart.
Oops! There goes your sanity,
So you see you weren’t so smart.

Alone In MY Room

Alone in my Room

As I sit alone in my room,
I know that you will come to me soon.
My heart races at the thought,
Of a soft spoken word or a tender touch.

The feel of your gentle caress,
The feel of your warm lips.
After all these years, it surprises me still,
That you don’t know how I feel.

Can’t you see the need in my heart,
The passion in my eyes right from the start,
The way that your touch gives me that special tingle,
And still you think I wanna be single.

I don’t know what more I can do,
To show my everlasting love for you,
How can I make you see,
There is no one in this world but you for me.

The Remembering Tree

The Remembering Tree

While I sat beneath the willow tree,
I began thinking of what you mean to me,
As a smile came across my face,
I knew that you were with me in this special place.

Remembering the times that we’ve shared,
The special ways that you’ve shown me that you cared,
Thinking of all that we have in common,
Knowing that though we may move on neither will be forgotten.

Although we may never meet face to face,
I know that you are a beautiful person full of grace,
With a heart full of compassion and love,
Given to you by God above.

Because he knew too same as I do,
That what I say is true,
While I may meet a lot of friends online,
There are very few that I truly consider a friend of mine.

We may lose touch as we journey down life’s many roads,
But I will always keep with friendships codes,
So my friend, never fret or fear,
You are one that I consider near and dear.

A friend knows the song in your heart but, a true friend can sing it back to you when you’ve forgotten the words
Dedicated to my friends
