What is this thing we call Love?
Allows us to feel what has NEVEr been felt,
And to Say what we NEVER thought we could say?
It allows us to Believe in what has NEVER been dreamt
And live out our true Destiny.
What is Love?
It is a husband who faithfully sits by his wife's side as her memory fades away,
It is a wife who tells her husband, cane and All: You're Still the ONLY man for me( just can't ride on a Hoove around)
It is a Man who loves unconditionally
And a Woman who loves without conditions...
What is Love?
It is a Woman Who realizes her man comes with 2 or 3 little packages
And he Loves and accepts her package of 1 As well
AND
Together, they combine their packages to live and Be as 1
It is a boyfriend who is ready to walk down the isle
And a girlfriend who realizes its the size of his HEART and NOT the diamond
What is Love?
It is an emotion that sings an undying song to 2 hearts.
It mends,
Heals,
and turns tears into smiles.. Pain into Joy
It replaces that old-old with the New-New!!
Love,
Better to have given than just received
Better to have loved than NOT at all.
God is the ultimate love,
Because he loved us, He Blew into the dirt and formed man.
And in doing so, he provided the gift Woman
What is Love?
It allows us to say
til death do us part as long as you don't break my heart.
Love,
A passion that cannot die,
Intertwined 2 hearts to beat as 1!
Love is you,
Love is me,
Love on me as I love on you!
Love is Love and It's Beyond Measure

Time Waits for NO 1
Oppressed thoughts,
Oppressed Actions,
STAGNATION,
Feet glued to the ground....
Not moving.
Always waiting for the right time BUT it never arrives
Holding out hope, Until desperation sets in..
Time Waits for No 1...
Needing to understand what is right,
Accepting what is and has been wrong.
Pointing the finger when SELF, is to Blame..
Self is to blame...
Time, it does NOT stand still and it does NOT wait...
Trying to convince your thoughts that your moment is here,
YET
No motivation or power within yourself to pursue it
And YET
the clock ticks
The hours become minutes, the minutes become seconds and it GONE....
Becoming a fugitive to your your own Destiny,
Rejection
Ridicule
Involuntary Deatrh of LIFE... Your life
Looking towards tomorrow,
Yet eyes are wide shut,
Time has moved on, Gone to the Next...
Time...
It tried to befriend you-
Tried to hold on-
While experiences of yesteryear still lingered on...
Lacked the courage to accept and change,
Stood Still, while others progressed
Reality has set, Time made its mark,
Moved on, No longer able to wait for No 1...
Time, wasn't able to wait...
It has moved on!

~The Realness of Love~
She is sitting there isolated,
In her own own world, totally dispondant...
Missing his touch, his smile....
The warm embrace that captured her heart.
A minute in time she would give-
Just to be held by him right now at this moment...
Laughter filled both hearts with feelings of overwhelming warmth, YET:
The moment they said goodbye, Reality hit.
She headed back to her world and He his,
It was a temporary fix for a lifetime they are building.
She sits, QUIET:
Looking out the window,
Hoping,
Believing and...
Anticipating
Him, walking around the corner.
BUT, as of right now, there are NO signs of him.
She dozes, closes her eyes and sees what seems to be his strong arms.
She runs toward him, full speed ahead.
It seems to be an eternity But, she arrives, SAFE:
She jumps into his arms and a long kiss is shared.
He reminds her how beautiful she is with a soft touch, No Words:
She stares into his eyes- hers saying to him Never leave...
They whisper sweet nothings, Because
At this moment it is what they NEED.
Ahhhh, the Realness of Real Love...
I love you baby- I'd love you to rock with me.
I will as long as you stay by my side and never leave...
She opens her eyes, looks closely with a slight slint towards the door and HE walks in...
The moment they have been living for is here....
The moments Realness meets Real Love...
In her own own world, totally dispondant...
Missing his touch, his smile....
The warm embrace that captured her heart.

The Raine~
She said she is RAIN,
she falls hard and steady-
But can also( just) mist the air with her presence AND in my case mess up my hair!
She is the kind of rain that does unsuspecting damage.
She never understood WHY people take cover from her,
And YET, she's left ALONE~
She bares the harsh cold statement and words others use to describe her Destructive"NESS"
"I lost my beach house"
"My car flooded"
"My basement is a pool"
"My house floated away"
" I..HATE..RAIN.."
Not looking for love, because it seeped through the cracks on more than one occasion.
Just looking for acceptance as GOD has already proved-
When she swept through and broke the levees of New Orleans, it was not done purposely...
She did not want to take all those lives But
Hers had been taken and misused so many times..
So, she took what others have taken from her at such a young age..
In return, all she's ever wanted was someone to care about HERS~......
When she falls from the sky
~Plants are fed
~Lawns are watered
~Droughts no longer so,
~Souls grow
~Children jump in her puddles
BUT..What...About..HER?
SHE is RAINE....
A beautiful girl,
Given the raw stick in life.
She is RAINE....
In search of someone to Love her, hold her and care for her,
Someone to bring her in-
She is RAINE....
The story of so many young girls left out to dry..
Left to survive on the streets of America...
She is RAINE...
Hear her voice,
Love Her,
Support her,
It could change her life and Yours...
She is RAINE...
" A personal experience, shaped this piece... Growing up, I didn't realize how fortunate I was until I met Raine..."

Smiling~
My smile is contagious..I smile when I'm down, Happy, low and sad..
Have you ever wondered why people can walk around with a frown? What in their life could be so bad that won't allow them to smile? There were points in my life when I didn't smile freely, but I knew how to display something FAKE... I've learned that in order to really appreciate a real true smile it has to come from within...
Your soul is the truest expression of you as a person...And when you learn how to love on self 1st, you can smile and love on others equally!
Today, my smile represents me!! My smile reaches to the bottom of my soul, finds my good place and it displays across my face..
In my smile you can see Confidence, you can see my Grace.
I want my feelings and I want my Smile to bounce off me and onto others~
Smile, it makes you feel better
Smile, it makes you seem approachable
Smile, Love is Love~
