After a While Poem by Veronica Shoffstall

After a While
by Veronica A. Shoffstall

 

After a while

You learn the subtle difference between holding a hand

and chaining a soul

And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning

and company doesn’t mean security

And you begin to learn that kisses are not contracts

and presents are not promises

And you begin to accept your defeat

with your head up and eyes open

with the grace of an adult, not a grief of a child

After a while you learn that sunshine burn if you get too much

so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul

instead of waiting for someone to give you flowers

And you learn that you really can endure

that you really are strong

and you really do have worth

Touching Love Quotes for Her

You are my universe.

My whole world revolves around you. 

My life is in chaos 

then everything 

falls right into place-

 the moment I met you!

Before: Love is just a four-letter word

Now:    Love is you and me together

With a gentle glimpse,

Our souls reach out  

With a slight smile,

Our hearts connect

With a sigh,

We understand

Love is here.

Touching Love Quotes for Him

 
Allow me to love you every single day-
that’s all I ask of you!

Thank you for the countless moments you made me smile.

You have a heart bursting with happiness;
a love that overflows.

Everything seems perfect whenever I am with you.

So you are the “One’”? : I am one lucky girl.

You are the wish I asked for, the man of my dreams.

Ours is a love too sweet, too precious.
I will love you forever.

I miss you: Just so you know, I have been daydreaming about your smile, your hugs, your everything.

You are the greatest thing that ever happened to me.

If You Walk Away by David Pomeranz

If you walked away from me today

I am sure that who you were going to

Would feel the way that I do

Baby it's you

Who fills up my life

And if you walked away from me today

Never to return until the journey

That you made had ended

I know you planned it

Just to fill up my life

Fill my life

Till now

No one's been able to show me how

To fill my life like you

You are the woman who taught me to

And if you walked away from me today

It wouldn't change a thing

I'd still be singing celebration of you

Baby you do

You fill up my life

Fill my life

Now I know

What it feels like to overflow

Until my life is through

All I'm here for is here for you

Fill my life

Now I see

What it feels like to be set free

Until my life is through

All I'm here for

Is here for you

Just for you

Only for you

Hey hey...oooo

What About Me by Kim Carnes and James Ingram

I see you here with me

I've waited all my life

For someone like you

Someone to give

My heart and soul to

I look into your eyes

Your love for me

Was such a welcome surprise

I think at last

I've found forever

But what about me

(I'll always love you)

Oh, what about me

(I'll always need you)

You were my love before

But I need so much more of you

Time after time

I feel I'm losing my mind

Or maybe this is what

Lovers must go through

It never entered my mind

We could be wasting our time

What am I gonna do

What about me

Oh, what about me

No reason to pretend

True love affairs don't

Have to come to an end

The moment we don't

Have all the answers

I nearly go insane

(Oh, I go insane)

Each and every time

I hear you whisper my name

I feel the same

When I'm around you

(But what about me)

I'll always love you

(Oh, what about me)

I'll always need you

This is so hard for me

I wanted so much to be

With you, whoa

Time after time

I feel I'm losing my mind

Or maybe this is what

Lovers must go through

It never entered my mind

We could be wasting our time

What am I gonna do

Time after time

I'm losing my mind

It never entered my mind

We could be wasting our time

But what about me

"Someone That I Used To Love" by Natalie Cole

When I wake up each morning trying to find myself

And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself

Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

As for me it's getting down to the last unspoken part

When you must begin to ease the pain of a broken heart

Tell me why should I even care if I have to lose your love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

Yet it wasn't enough for you

All the love I had to give

I did my best to keep you satisfied

I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried

And if ever our paths should cross again

Well, you won't find me being the one to get lost again

Once I had so much to give but you just refused my love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

I did my best to keep you satisfied

I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried

When I wake up each morning trying to find myself

And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself

Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

From now on you're only someone that I used to love

Love Poems of Phil Literature

PHILOSOPHER’S LOVE SONG

By Tita Lacambra-Ayala

If truth is real

it will

become true

If truth is

unreal it will

not become

as you

are truth

as you are real

you will

become true

if not to me

at least to your self

at least to the part

that’s real

to me when I

touch you

SOOTHING AS NIGHT WINDS ARE

Salvador B. Espinas

Love is gentle, love is quiet

Like any distant star

Love is beauty, love is music

Soothing as night winds are.

Love is patient and unselfish

Divine, true, neutral, fair –

Love is ageless and immortal,

Lost love is just somewhere

And the heart that abandons,

Nurses a tender scar,

Softly stabbing, and yet sweetly

Soothing as night winds are.

QUIETNESS

Amador T. Daguio

I am lover of quietness-

Unechoed songs within a silent heart,

A sliver pond, a statued loveliness

Where words can take no part.

I love the quiet ways of memory,

The quiet looks to give you loving praise,

The quiet secrets of my misery

Through quiet nights and days.

The quiet mountains of the earth I love,

The moving clouds, the sun, the dewy leaf.

My quiet questioning o God above,

My quite, tearless grief

MARIA CLARA`S SONG

JOSE RIZAL

Sweet are the hours in one's native land,

Where all is dear the sunbeams bless;

Life-giving breezes sweep the strand,

And death is softened by love's caress.

Warm kisses play on mother's lips,

On her fond, tender breast awaking

When round her neck the soft arm slips,

And bright eyes smile, all love partaking.
