My Hope & Strength

For so long I have hidden away my heart
But something happens when I hear your voice
Feelings and wants come rushing back
My heart taking over in this I have no choice

So many times have I been given false hope
And for once I want to have it be true
To throw caution fully to the wind
Only wanting to believe souly in you, my hope & strength.

To have the smiles and the laughs
No looking back on the moments only to cry
To keep you in my heart forever
And not having to ask the question why

So now I am gonna give it my all
Close my eyes and see the world through yours
Let my heart and your hand be my guide
No more secrets, no more closed doors.

My Other Half

You can't have one without the other,
The night isn't a night without the stars and a moon,
Everytime you go I hope to see you soon,
For you are my other half,
We are two perfect puzzle pieces,
Made for each other,
Can't you see that you are the only thing I need?
I could go through my whole life but I'll still be half empty,
I need you,
Like a mother longs for her son,
I need you,
You are the very beat in my heart,
And the only thing this key wants to unlock,
There is no other for me,
No one in the universe,
No one I can see,
But can you see?
That you complete me like no other.
When we kiss our lips are in perfect shape,
When our hands clasp they are interchangable,
The spaces in between my fingers were made for you,
No one else will do,
Bethany I love you.

With You

With you I am everything,
Reaching my full potential in one single moment,
As my heart reaches out for your once again,
You clasp it tightly like many times before,
But somehow it feels like the very first time,
You let me into the door of your heart,
Letting me be the part that completes you.
With you my world has color,
But still the greatest color is in your eyes.
With you I have sunshine even when the clouds cover my blue sky,
Without you my heart will die.
Bethany, I will be with you until the day I die and then some,
Forever with you even when the sun doesn't shine,
My love for you is as infinite as the stars,
To fill you up when your heart is empty,
I want to take the bars that imprison you, and slay the dragons,
Let me be your knight in shining armor, your prince, your Romeo,
I'd be do anything for you Bethany just know,
that my heart has always been your with you no matter what I say,
And with you my heart will stay.

Will You Be Mine?

Will you be mine, forever?
The sign of your love is so clear,
Everyday my love for you grows stronger,
I stare at you when you don't even notice,
And somehow my eyes don't want to blink or even look away,
Your soul is a flare on a cold dark night,
I will try to be your knight in shining armor,
If you will be my princess,
I will never loose sight of you.
Some days its really hard to believe
but when I rub my eyes,
It is no dream, you are right there,
You are in the very air I breath,
Intoxicating,
I can't help but smile,
You are like no other in the world,
And you fit perfectly in my heart,
In my heart there is a Bethany shaped hole.
So will you be mine, mine forever?
Because if I'm yours I know I'll be better,
And if this life is a race, I want to cross the finish line with you.
I love you.

I'll be gone, But I'll be close

I'll be gone, but I'll be close,
As close as the pillow you lay on.
Though you can't feel me and hold my hand,
You can feel me in this poem,
And instead hold my heart in your beautiful hands,
No amount of land can keep my love from you.
Your smile is in everything I see,
Your voice is forever echoing in my head.
Everything you have ever said,
Everything we've ever did,
Is playing a projection on my soul,
And if it was a bowl, It would be overflowing will love for you,
I'll be gone, but I'll be close.
I won't be very far,
Just don't take your eyes off of me.
And you will be in my dreams.

Through Anything

Though the sky keeps on raining, You are my sunshine,
The clouds always try to block you, But you always shine through,
Though the distance between us is paining, The miles feel like galaxies,
But I'm not as far as you think,
I'm in your heart, wherever you go, whatever you do,
I'll love you despite myself,
Through anything I'll be here,
My heart has been yours from the beginning and it still will be in the end,
I can't imagine a world without you, so I won't try,
And until the end I will try in vain to explain all that you've given to me,
I will be tender and I'll give you the world if you ask me.
Love will fill your heart and overflow,
So much to spare you won't know what to do with it.
Just remember no matter what happens I'll be here through anything.
I'd go through hell and back for you.

You Are

You have the most beautiful voice, every word you sing vibrates my inner being,
Are you part of the heavenly choirs on the clouds?
When I close my eyes and wait outside I can hear you in the wind,
In one ear, and out the other,
When your eyes focus on mine, nothing else matters,
Its all a blur, I feel as if I'm in a wonderful hypnotic trans,
The atmosphere is somehow spinning, but I'm not dizzy,
You are something else, something better than I ever imagined,
Someone I want to love forever, and never hurt, always trust,
I can't explain it the words are endless but I'll keep writing them,
Because our love is forever, our hearts entangled together,
Entwined in a infinite knot,
Bethany, You are my true love.

Never Ending Love

You offer me a never ending love,
It burns within my heart, eating away all my worry,
Bursting through me like a thrusting flurry.
Comforting to me even when I can't see the light,
A blanket on the coldest night,
My sunshine on the cloudiest day,
The very thing my heart will always cherish.
Your heart fills my cup half full,
You brought colors back into my life,
The sky has never been so bright,
Your love is something I will never loose sight of,
For you are an angel and that's the way you should be treated.
Your smile is the best medication in the world,
Even when I try to look for the dark, it's no where to be found,
Used to be lost and now I have found the one I will love forever,
I give you my never ending love Bethany,
My heart and soul,
My all.
Because I love you.

Period, Amen, Done, Nothing more nothing less, Choai, Avetersay, Astalavista baby, Goodbye, and Goodnight!

There is a equation that will never change-
Jeremy+Bethany=Love Forever and Always.
We both would do anything for each other,
No variable can change that,
We abide in each other,
And God is on our side, who can stand against us,
This is our love and it is perfect in every way.
There is not much more I could say,
Wouldn't trade it for anything,
The way she sings her songs in my hears,
Bad things happen to good people,
I know this is true,
But no matter what I'll always love you.
Period, Amen, Done, Nothing more nothing less, Choai, Avetersay, Astalavista baby, Goodnight, and Goodbye.

Could Look Forever

Searching all around for a person just like you,
Never finding until now,
I was so lost in my own hell,
You came from the sky to help me,
Lifting my chin telling me you love me,
I could never find another like you,
Could look forever but it would be in vain.
I have tried and have fail time and time again,
But now I have found you,
Face to face,
Eyes to eyes,
Every stitch of you is beautiful.

Breathing at a constant speed,
Choking on every breath trying to tell you how much.

Hand in hand,
I feel alive, a feeling I never recognized,
I have found myself in you.

When I kiss you I breath in,
Life has filled my lungs,
Breath of life,
Breath of love.
The only thing fighting is our tongues, our thumbs always wrestle,
But I could look forever to find someone like you,
And I would try in vain,
Because you can't find perfection.

Tears of Joy

My heart melts when you share yours,
Floods my insides and out my eyes,
I'm so happy, gliding in the sky,
You opened your doors for me,
I look at me and I feel almost undeserving of you,
Because you knock me out with every do,
No girl will do,
All I want is you.
My greatest song will be played for you,
My greatest poem will be for you,
Because you are the greatest,
And all I want is you...

Happiness fills my lungs, a breath of fresh air,
I kiss you and million shooting stars erupt from my heart,
A firework show for all to see,
There are no absolutes,
There's just you and me.
Life sprung up from my feet and to my chest,
As our lips were dancing together, tangoing together.

Looking into your eyes I just know you love me,
The vivid crystal is proof,
It sparkles with joy,
And your expression is like a child on Christmas morning.
The music stops and so does our lips,
We grasp each other never wanting to let go,
No space between us,
It's heaven on earth,
I am so happy now all I cry are tears of joy.

Cradling Hearts

Your beautiful heart,
Thumping against my hand, against my chest,
The best thing I could cherish, like a priceless diamond,
Even in my most helpless moment I will look to my hand,
and as long as I have your heart, I will stand.
Walking through a never ending forest,
Fire falls from the sky, animals try to kill me,
But I hold you heart from them all.
They can't get it even if they pry and break each finger,
I will still grasp it.

I know there are obstacles that lie ahead,
And there are many words swirling around in my head,
Saving the words that I never said for you,
With every breath there's nothing I wouldn't do,
To show you how much I love you.

Both our worlds collided and we made a world of our own,
We feel like we have known each other in a past life,
Constructed down to the stitch:

Made to love,
made to hold,
made to dance,
made to sing-
Together.

Your touch is a healing sting that devours the loneliness, a mouse to a lion,
Easy to see things through your eyes,
Skies open up when your eyes light up,
Sighs of happiness fill the air when I hug you,
I'm cradling your heart and your cradling mine,
So close to my chest, it is my heart.

Eyes Locked Tight

Waves of bright amber sway around a black hole,
The first time I saw it I was sucked into its mighty vortex,
Spiraling, eyes locked tight.
I caught the vivid crystal in your eye, it looked like a shooting star,
Left in awe, all I could think of to say was "I love you",
The beauty wasn't only a physical beauty,
It was behind the pupils,
The dark blanket was unveiled with no shame,
As a swarm of fireflies erupted from underneath,
I looked into the lake behind your eyes, its name is Lake Content,
The waters reflected buzzing lights almost as if the fireflies were behind a chandler,
But they weren't, they were dancing around me humming love songs in my ears,
My ears lick their lips at the sound,
And when you laugh, choirs from heaven sing,
Heart ringing,
I fell into your lake and I don't ever want to come out,
Swimming around without a care in the world,
Just wanting you and you alone.

Perfect Match

Never dumpster diving for love,
Its always there in your open arms,
I hold your hands and clamp them tight,
I don't want to let them go,
When your gone I can still feel your skin on my fingertips,
As I see your sweet lips move with unforgettable words to follow,
each one filling the holes in my heart and making me whole,
We are a perfect match,
You snatch my heart every time,
I'd drop this world for you on a dime,
Because without you nothing is fine,
So I'm yours and you are mine,
There is no might,
As we take each others hearts and clamp them tight.

Ti Amo (I Love You)

Ti amo,
With words I flow,
Ti amo,
Trying to show.
You should always know,
that you are sewed into my heart,
Patched, feeling better by the second,
We are perfectly matched together, peanut butter & jelly, salt & pepper.
My belly feels like a hive of butterflies,
Heart in your hands,
I'm in your hands.
Ti amo Bethany.

Tonight

Even when I'm not here, I'm here,
In this poem the words are here for you,
Chai tea for your freezing veins,
And when I'm not here,
I love you just the same as the first day,
Perfection is in our love,
You are my Juliet, all I want is to be your Romeo,
Will bend and break every bone in my back to see your face,
Daggers fill the void of desperation to show how much,
They stab my skin, just trust me,
Separation is only temporary,
There are things I need to do right now,
Tonight my words will be the hands that hold you,
Hoping they will adore you like I do,
When you read this it will be known,
That my heart, my words will be shown,
Tonight the stars shine so bright,
I counted them like the amount of times you blessed me,
I ran out of stars,
No matter how far,
No matter what I say,
Tonight my heart is in yours,
Beating together,
Tonight my eyes are looking into yours,
I know in your dreams its not the same,
But you can always trust that tonight,
I'm falling with you, at the same speed.

Not Just Imagining...

Clouds and multicolor leaves moving everywhere,
The clouds reflecting off my eyes,
The multicolor leaves barrel roll in circle, looking like a majestic dogfight,
Tornadoing, never seizing the calmness,
A dry wind breezes through my spirit,
I breath in with the rhythm of my heartbeat, matching the gust,
The smell was only a freezing musky fog.

Drums in my lungs vibrate my senses, jumbling my perspective,
You pound on my inter-being, playing a joyous song.
Intense feelings harmonize with the circulating environment.
A river streams at my feet peering off a cliff into a waterfall,
My shiver begins as a mist glides and brushes against my fingertips,
It tickles the warm and rapidly floats from my feet.
Then I saw it, a spotlight erupting from the right side of the horizon,
Covering my eyes as the clouds scattered instantly,
Leaves stop and so does my heart,
The leaves pave the surrounding area,
Giving the heart to glimmering shrine,
It was you, Jeremy, you became a warm sliver.
The way out of the infectious cold,
Veins frostbitten, heart was behind a wall of ice,
Chilling me to the bone, Until your light shined through,
Melted everything that once was until the world I thought up came out my ear,
It was a nightmare you woke me up from,
Something that was scary & hopeless, now fear is only a memory,
Your smile was rebirthing to my colorless world.

I was colorblind. Then stared at your beauty inside,
and now I'm blindly in love with you,
So blind, I can see,
So far gone, I'm right here,
So head over heels, I'm right side up,
Our love is so amazing, I couldn't help but smile back at you.

Perfectly Unprepared

When you fell from the mouth of the clouds,
I didn't know what I should do,
Both in the same hole looking for someone to relate to,
The captor of my heart has a name, Danielle,
If I'm a key, your heart is the only one I'd open,
Unleashing the purest thing I have ever felt,
Unprepared for the road ahead,
Just knowing that I don't care where it leads, as long as your with me,
Instead of trying to control, I want something bigger to hypnotize me,
Your eyes of amber containing a rapture of love,
The skies are brighter, cloudless, even when there's clouds,
I don't care, it won't rain as long as I have you,
Even if the drops of water collide with our faces, we won't need a umbrella,
Even blizzards on the mountain tops feel like summertime at the beach,
Your hugs will be like blankets to my soul,
Our hands clasped tight, wielded together like steel,
As you smile, my heart you steal,
Arms around each other, clamping down, never letting go even when we let go,
Palm trees are as commons as the gray clouds when your around.
Unprepared to whatever happens, venturing out into a world unknown,
Skipping laughing, I don't care as long as I have you.
Love isn't prepared.

Heaven after Hell

Walked down the Broadway of my heart, rained with disappointment,
Failures of the past fill the asphalt cracks as my dreams wash into the nearest sidewalk drain,
While landscapes lie with orchards of nightmares,
Nothing was beautiful in this orchard, just dirt & remains of broken branches, lying snug against ash & rubble,
Buildings surround the acreage, they were all torn up with every window shattered,
People-like things with two-faces and two tongues roamed around, their skin a ghostly pale color,
They graffiti the roads & alleyways with blood.

There has to be paradise after this hell,
There has to a sweetness in this disgusting corpse smelling wasteland.

Crawled in a pitch-black tunnel looking around for someone like you,
Until suddenly I fell unto your head, at first it was alarming I have to admit,
Wondering if you were going to open your doors of paradise for me,
With your smiling eyes you blinded me from all that was,
Now there's only fun and laughter when I'm with you,
Swimming in the skies with the sun,
Without a care in the world,
Just you & I,
Bethany & Jeremy,
Forever in paradise.
My hell is without you.

Heart So FULL

Topped off,
Full as full can be,
The drink you serve spills,
There's so much even the cup is hesitant,
It doesn't ever need to be refilled,
My heart is so full my lungs are going to have to move,
My ribcage welcomes your smile, swinging open without a ambiance,
Heart feeling like its going to explode in a fit of joy, but there's no need for a ambulance, I'm as healthy as I could ever be,
Because if you were a stage, I'd be the song,
Why does the days without you seem so long?
And when I'm with you I feel so strong, like even superman doesn't compare,
Against the world but without a fear.
You mean everything to me, my dear,
It hasn't even been a week,
And my heart is jumping off its feet, wait so am I,
Into a cliff of love, skydiving then soaring higher and higher each day.

Once Every Lifetime

Once in every lifetime, someone comes along,
The one special heart
You've been waiting for your whole life long.

Once in every lifetime, God sends an angel from above,
To make your life complete
Who you can give you endless love.

When a love like this comes, make any sacrifice,
For the best things in life
This never comes along twice.

There is no love that compares to yours and mine,
A love from heaven that only comes
"Once Every Lifetime."

With Her

To be with her is
Reality in a perfect dream,
It is a feeling so pure that
Connects our heart and soul,
It can only be true love
An emotion unparalleled.

My Promise To You

When time comes you find yourself in deep trouble
Like a ship lost in the mid-sea during a storm
You want to cry and need a shoulder to lean on
Seem hopeless and could not move on...
Got no one around whom to count on.

Maybe you will totally forget me
Or given up on me for somebody else,
Maybe I think I am useless and nothing but garbage
So you may shun and make a mock of me.

You might be surprised when you turn your back
See me smile with open arms and extended hands
For unlike them whom you prefer to be with than me
I'll never give up...
Turn my back on you.

I'll be your candle
Offer you light so you may not stumble

Let Me Take You

Its obvious there are so many unanswered questions,
With those there are no doubts,
All I know is that your what I want to be about,
So much happiness in my heart I feel I could shout,
And the questions then evaporate with the fog of despair,
I'm not the only one whose been there for you,
I don't know where your heart lies but I think we're a perfect pair,
You want someone to take your heart to heights unmatched?
I can do that, you have scraped a match and set my heart on fire,
Let me take you there and we can leave our pains at the door,
Soaring into the sunset, and don't forget to breathe,
Seeing you now smiling at me, Hearts together in a hot air balloon,
So blind yet I've never seen any better, 20/20 vision,
Visions of us together,
When the clouds are even jealous of our hearts,
Hands clasped,
Peering over the horizon,
Just you and me,
Let me take you there.

More than Words

You changed my world with a blink of an eye
That is something that I can not deny
You put my soul from worst to best
That is why I treasure you my dearest
You just don't know what you have done for me
You even pushed me to the best that I can be
You really are an angel sent from above
To take care of me and shower with love
When I'm with you I will not cry even a single a tear
And your touch have chased away all of my fear
You have given me a life that I could live worthwhile
It is even better every time you smile
It so magical those things you've made
To bring back my faith that almost fade
Now my life is a dream come true
It all began when I was loved by you
Now I have found what I am looking for
It's you and your love and nothing more
‘Cause you have given me this feeling of contentment
In my life something I've never felt
I wish I could talk 'til the end of day
But now I'm running out of things to say
So I'll end by the line you already know
"I LOVE YOU" more than what I could ever show.

Not Just Another Love Poem

Where do I start?
What can I say?
To make you stay with me,
Because if you live on a island I’d swim the sea,
Fighting each wave & storm,
But if I didn’t make it, would you dive to the depths?
Pull me from the deepest crevasses of the earth,
I would meet you on a mountain top,
Even if the blizzards freeze my bones, my love for you will keep me warm,
Frostbites would feel like sunburns,
And even in an abyss I’d feel like I could fly,
Because when I’m with you I can't close my eyes,
Urging to blink; but I don’t want to miss a second beside you.
Could search forever for a person like you,
Under every rock & canvass, in vain,
I can’t find perfection,
And girl, your sweet smile drives me insane,
The amazing symptoms you cause are too many to name.
Heart skipping a beat, every time you speak,
You make even the bleakest moments life changing.
And yes, I could go on and on,
Pages after pages,
For my love can’t be summed up in quick phases,
There’s no other way I can show you,
My words are the only thing I have to offer you.
So I give them all to you,
You get the clue of this solved mystery,
I’d do everything I could do,
Just to show how much I love you.

All I Need

The pressure fills,
the darkness covers all,
on my own, it gets too much.

Never good enough,
Always lacking,
As you carry on blind to it all.

I take my last breath,
Its like I'm dead inside,
The neutral feeling embraces my body,
Surges through my veins,
And controls my soul,

Without you, I fall to this,
Lowering to a numb cavity,
The life inside me rots like a flower,
Browned and dry,
Its left as nothing.
Everyday feels like winter,
So cold and depressing.

But when our hands touch,
My soul will ignite,
A fire burning long into the night,
Its recumbent limbs spread.
And circle through all our days

The days always drag on,
But the fire in my heart won’t die,
I said some things that I thought I’d never say,
And I can’t lie I have a thing for you.
No, all I need is you.
