If we looked to our children,
So simple and pure.
If we looked to our children,
We could learn so much more.
If we looked to our children,
We could rise above.
If we looked to our children,
We could learn how to love.
If we looked to our children,
We could find a way to be free.
If we looked to our children,
We could learn how to see.
If we looked to our children,
Without being so stern.
If we looked to our children,
How much we could learn.
I looked at a sweet, beautiful rose
And then I looked at you
And I kept looking at you
For the rose ain’t as beautiful as you
Your love gives me strength to live day by day.
To enjoy my life to the fullest
To understand that life is a journey
and that we can travel it together.
Your love teaches me that love is unconditional,
and that our love will never die.
It will go through many changes,
just as our lives are in constant motion.
You’ve taught me to be secure in our love.
The way you love me gives me butterflies.
I feel strangely light headed.
I look forward to your touch, the sound of your voice.
The comforting words you offer,
and your undying support.
You’ve taught me that love can last a lifetime,
and that you must work at it.
Something this precious cannot be given up.
The way you love me lights my life
and burns a fire deep inside.
An Entrapment
My love, I have tried with all my being
to grasp a form comparable to thine own,
but nothing seems worthy;
I know now why Shakespeare could not
compare his love to a summer’s day.
It would be a crime to denounce the beauty
of such a creature as thee,
to simply cast away the precision
God had placed in forging you.
Each facet of your being
whether it physical or spiritual
is an ensnarement
from which there is no release.
But I do not wish release.
I wish to stay entrapped forever.
With you for all eternity.
Our hearts, always as one.
- Anthony Kolos -
If I could have just one wish,
I would wish to wake up everyday
to the sound of your breath on my neck,
the warmth of your lips on my cheek,
the touch of your fingers on my skin,
and the feel of your heart beating with mine…
Knowing that I could never find that feeling
with anyone other than you.
