[bodytext] => She's a punch to the gut The kind that steals the air from you Leaving you an empty feeling, covered with a sting She means no harm, she's just Doin' her thing Now I got a story to tell, With a quick change of pace All good stories start with a girl And she was a miracle in disguise Found in the least likely of places But through common words A friendship grew from the darkest of backgrounds Drowning in an ice cold world I'd like to say I saved her from herself But I think, mostly She saved me from my own doom Without her I'd have no bone Love follows close to friendship Riding on its heels I'm not surprised I discovered a love that defines me Granted, two years later Better late than never to discover a treasure so fine I was tripping over the words, and The butterflies in my stomach Almost took me away When I told her what I found Inside my soul Soon she said those lovely words Heart pounding, breathless Nervously shaking... It was a dream That's what it felt like A moment surreal I sold my soul For free I gave her my heart, I was willing to give it all away She traded me hers, and I promised To keep it safe But a price is always payed So now you can see, there's a Red carpet rolled out before me Hundreds of miles of highway, and I'm On my knees crying Desperately reaching out for her But it's the blind leading the blind out here A craving worse than withdrawal It's been my only hope for years To have her here always Looking up into the stars, I can read the future And she's by my side, we're happy And we're holding hands And I can feel her arms around me, I can see into her eyes And hear her voice And I can feel her lips on mine... It's a punch to the face A stab to the gut The stinging in your eyes It's a feeling of longing so overwhelming With each passing second, it kills you a little on the inside [comments] => 2 [counter] => 173 [topic] => 2 [informant] => the_unknown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
