{{{{{{ jasuma }}}}}} :rose: How very nice to see you join the tributes to a loved one here on the thread.

Given the chance and I believe the door is open for it, I'll have someone again.
Not to yearn for a holiday or when able, meeting of souls in a LDR. My heart and soul cannot live on that. I need a constant partner to love and cherish, to share all of life with.

Dear 69forever...... one day, when you least expect it... that very special someone will be there for you ... keep your heart open and true and all that is destined for you will come your way with wealth. My dear auld Nana would say: “what’s meant for you will never go past you’…. :kiss: :rose:

May I say.. your AV is absolutely gorgeous......... makes a girl want to reach right out and wrap her hands over you, smoothing away all the days woes......

~blush~ Why thank you jasuma, you're too kind. :rose:

That may be just what has happened. After a couple years here at Lit. things have come full circle, back to one of the very first women I met here. A neighbor for all intents and purposes. Someone I have cared for very deeply, and do more than ever. Neither of us thought the other was interested in more than friendship.

Funny how Lady Karma weaves her magic.....I feel more alive than I have for a very, very long time. By the smile in her eyes, I believe the feeling is mutual.

I hope all the romantics out there have had a wonderful, fulfilling weekend with their lover.

:rose: I'm not too kind at all sweetie, I'm happy to read that Lady Karma has weaved her magic over your romantic soul with such sweet rewards.

As for this romantic, the weekend with my lover was wonderful and fulfilling :p :kiss:

Wishing you a week of luminous smile in your ladies eyes >:D<

There may be some obstacles, but the smile is there. Lady Karma has been kind to me in a lot of aspects of my life lately. Faith that you reap what you sow in triplicate may have wavered, but my conduct towards others has not. If only others would live their lives the same.....the world would be a much better place.

Great to hear things are well with you and yours. :rose:
 
Absence of Fear - Jewel Kilcher

Inside my skin there is this space
It twists and turns, it bleeds and aches
Inside my heart there's an empty room
It's waiting for lightning it's waiting for you

I am wanting and I am needing you
To be here inside the absence of fear

Muscle and sinew velvet and stone
This vessel is haunted it creaks and moans
My bones call to you in a separate skin
I'll make myself translucent to let you in

I am wanting and I am needing you
To be here inside the absence of fear

There is the splendor of this secret inside of me
And it knows that you're no stranger you're my gravity
My hands will adore you through all darkness
And they will lay you out in moonlight
And reinvent your name

I am wanting and I am needing you
To be here, I need you near
Inside the absence of fear​
 
For the Sweet one....

Yanno Hon....everyday it gets better. Even through the pain and frustration of both our problems in health, dailey struggle and more. The communication, trust and yes most of all, love grows. It takes the first two to make the third a reality.
A force that is stronger than any crap life has to throw at us. Any old baggage that needs dealing with. Anything not of our making.

I stand shoulder to shoulder with you and look for the future. Neither of us know for sure what's there for us. I just know that I'll always be there at your side, come hell or high water....until the day we both want in our lives comes to pass.

I love you baby. Unconditionally, you for you. And we do have all the time in the world to get it right. :rose: :heart: :kiss:

Keep the faith darling. Sometimes it's the strongest medicine in the world.
 
Sometimes....

You lose the faith. Question where things are at....in your relationship. Let life's daily struggles and pressures and looking for greener grass get the better of your judgement. Your committment. Your love. Then it's time to step back and set some time aside for the two of you.

Romantic weekends away are nice....but it could be as simple as shipping the kids off to a relative or friend for the night. Candles, soft music, a warm fire. Talking and holding each other to re-establish the feel of intimacy. Do what it takes....but keep the faith. :kiss: :rose:

Escape Lyrics
Jimmy Buffett

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long.
Like a worn-out recording, of a favorite song.
So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed.
And in the personals columns, there was this letter I read:

"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me, and escape."

I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean.
But me and my old lady, had fallen into the same old dull routine.
So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad.
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half-bad.

"Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne.
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape.
At a bar called O'Malley's, where we'll plan our escape."

So I waited with high hopes, then she walked in the place.
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face.
It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "Oh, it's you."
And we laughed for a moment, and I said, "I never knew"..

"That you liked Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
You're the lady I've looked for, come with me, and escape."

"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
I'm the love that you've looked for, come with me, and escape."
 
My Love....

It's been such a long road for the both of us. You were the first I met here over two years ago. We had so very much in common. Struck such a chord with each other. I was impatient and went off in another direction. You did likewise. We both made some terrible mistakes in giving our hearts.

We both made some lasting friends and loves that nothing will ever change. I have mine and you have yours. Funny really. We've talked of the "what if's".
Everything has a purpose in the circle of life. We've come full circle....and ended up together. I won't question fate if you don't.

I've learned a lot about love, how to give it unconditionally. From a dear one.
Your touch, your smile, your voice. You fullfill my heart and soul. Full circle.

I Love You Darling. :rose: :kiss: :heart:


Our House
Crosby, Stills, Nash (and Young)

I'll light the fire
You place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today

Staring at the fire
For hours and hours
While I listen to you
Play your love songs
All night long for me
Only for me

Come to me now
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is done
Such a cosy room
The windows are illuminated
By the evening sunshine through them
Fiery gems for you
Only for you

Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And our la,la,la, la,la, etc.

Our house is a very, very, very fine house

'Cause of you

Your silly old romantic.... ;)

Reo Speedwagon
» Sweet Time

When I awaken
feelin' no pain
visibly shaken
waitin' to touch you again.

My temperature's risin'
but I'm fallin' a bit behind.
And that ain't so surprising
we're gonna take our own sweet time.

Babe we can take our own sweet time
And spend it when we want to 'cos it's yours and mine.
Let our love come easy and we find
We can make it and we'll take our own sweet time.

I know when I hold you
it's a feelin' I can't explain.
But I never told you
I couldn't take it again.

But now I am ready
I am ready to make you mine
So I'm holin' steady
gonna take our own sweet time
Baby
we can take our own sweet time
Baby
we can take our own sweet time . . .
Baby
we can take our own sweet time
 
"It took me a long time finding you. You're someone I want to be with even after death. And if I found myself in heaven not holdin' your hand, I'd go searchin' for you all over again...."
 
Amen Oman.

These past few days not being able to talk to her have been a nightmare for me.
I knew I loved her. I just didn't realize how much. Now all is well again. :rose:
 
Come to Me
Tesla

You can come around, and I will help find a way
If something's got you down, it's just one of those days
That you find you've been caught in the middle, feeling like there ain't no way out
And it hurts you more than just a little, got your head all full of doubts
I'll be your shelter from the rain, until it's time to swim
Be there to help you share the pain, while never giving in
We'll keep it unconditional

Come to me, if you need someone, and you're looking for some company
Come to me, and I'll be there

Ain't nothing like a friend, no matter what you do
Who's always there 'til the end, it's like ya' got nothing to lose
What about when you're lost in the shuffle, knocked down, I'll pick you up again
If your days turn to lonely nights, and your nights into lonely days
I may not get it right, but I'll help you find a way
We'll take it all day by day

Come to me, if you need someone, and your looking for some company
If you need someone, you know that you can come to me
If you need someone, you know that you can come to me

If something busted your bubble, or maybe, your fortress had crumbled
There ain't nothing wrong with being humbled, 'cause a humbling is good for the soul
Oh, we all need, everybody needs, everybody needs someone to hold

You can come around, I will help find a way
If something's got you down, it's just one of those...
Days turned to lonely nights, nights into lonely days
I may not get it right, but I'll help you find a way.


:kiss: :rose:
 
Open Your Heart
Jon Bon Jovi

You say you've been used before
Whole lot of love then it's out the door
And you swore you'd be used again no more, no more

Then you got on your feet again
It came to you like a long lost friend
Now they say you're wearing a bulletproof heart
Well I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve

Baby believe that I would never hurt you
Baby believe, cause my love will not desert you
Baby believe you know you got me begging and crying
I'm down on my knees

Open your heart and baby love again
Cause I won't let them take your love from me

You know that I've been hurt too
It's just your heart turns black and blue
There ain't no use in talking about it
You know all there is to say

I wanna love you girl
I wanna show you my world
Stop hiding the key to your heart
Baby let me in, let me in

Can't you see, I'm a bandaged refugee
Can't you see, I need you girl to comfort me
Can't you see, oh, of all the tears that you cry
Close your eyes

Open your heart, and baby love again
Cause I won't let them take your love from me
Open your heart, and baby love again
I won't let them take your love from me

Can't you see, I'm a bandaged refugee
Can't you see, I need you girl to comfort me
Can't you see, oh, of all the tears that you cry
Close your eyes

Open your heart (I want to love you girl)
You made me love again (I want to show you my world)
I won't let them take your love from me
Open your heart (I want to love you girl)
And baby love again (I want to show you my world)
I won't let them take your love
I wont let them take your love
I won't let them take your love from me
 
Warm And Tender Love
by Percy Sledge

Let me wrap you in my warm and tender love, yeah
Let me wrap you in my warm and tender love
Oh, I loved you for a long, long time
Darling, please say you'll be mine
And let me wrap you in my warm and tender love

Let me wrap you in my warm and tender love, yeah
Let me wrap you in my warm and tender love
You're so lovely, you're oh so fine

Come on and please me with your touch
And let me wrap you in my warm and tender love

For I loved you for a long, long time
Darling please say you'll be mine
And let me wrap you in my warm and tender love
I said it'll be alright if you just let me
Let me wrap you in my warm and tender love
Oh baby, come on and let me
Let me wrap you in my warm and tender love
I said it'll be alright if you just let me
Wrap you in my warm and tender love, yeah

Good Morning Romantics.....

Louis Armstrong
» What A Wonderful World

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see 'em bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue, clouds of white
The bright blessed days, and dark sacred nights
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow
Are so pretty in the sky
It's also on the faces
Of people goin' by
I see friends shakin' hands
Sayin', "How do you do?"
Fairies sayin', "I love you."
I hear babies cry, and I watch 'em grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Book Of Love Lyrics
Air Supply

The book of love, that sacred place
Where we walk tall, or in disgrace
Who tills the ground on which we tread
Who gives us all our daily bread
The spirit woken from its sleep
The demon stirring from the deep
Whose gates at dawn we all must pass
The last one first, the first one last
Whose words must be both black and white
Whose music shall be day and night
The moon that tells us of the sun
Where voices soar so far above
These pages are the book of love

If we were bore just to succeed
If life was meant to be a choice
For either happiness or greed
If you can't walk, you always run
Away from anyone, yes you will

And if we learn to take our time
As though each moment is a treasure
That's not so hard to find
When you are free, then suddenly
There's room for everyone, yes there is

The book of love, the world of dreams
Those shadows fall upon us all
And send our weary eyes to sleep
But when you wake, your heart will make
Some room for everyone

Just come to me
There's nothing you should fear
Just come to me
I'll always be right here
I tell you now
My heart is where I live
And what you ask, is what I'll give

If we were bore just to succeed
If life was meant to be a choice
For either happiness or greed
If you can't walk, you always run
Away from anyone, yes you will

And if we learn to take our time
As though each moment is a treasure
That's not so hard to find
When you are free, then suddenly
There's room for everyone, yes there is

The book of love, the world of dreams
Those shadows fall upon us all
And send our weary eyes to sleep
But when you wake, your heart will make
some room for everyone.


Take my hand, walk with me
Together we both will see
Loving each other was meant to be
'Cause darling doing so, sets us free.

~S~
