more unnessecary stuff

Undesirable notices
find their way to me
bills and things I can't afford
I need to find a way

I am surrounded by all these people
who don't seem to understand
that college means so much to me
but the money isn't at hand

I hear them talking about vacation
and travelling to far away lands
second houses and
expensive gifts
I feel so left alone

I who re-use and recycle
because their is no other way
I who must go without
a meal or two today

I can survive
because that is what I must do
I know no other way
I know not what to do
because somehow
I must finish school

today is for you

Each morning, when I awake
its your smile I want to start my day
I see it my mind,
and hold it in my memory.

and later in the day,
it is when I talk to you
that a smile finds its way
from my face to my heart

after you, and only you

there is a place in my world
where only you fit
and a simple smile from you
is how you open it

I can dream and I can try
so very hard but I know
that very little in my life
will ever come to ease my woe

too many nights all alone
after time, tried and true
there was a secret I could write
and it would bring the pieces back to you

only you can open my heart

good morning

good morning to you
for I know you well

the sun in the sky will rise
to meet the day
with light and grace
its warmth falls down in rays

good morning to you
whom I see now and then

the clouds overhead
will soon move out of the way
to show you the wonders of the open air
and leave all your worries to another day

it took a few words

I wrote you once

a letter from my heart
and you gave me back
one from your own

at first it was cute
and I think it is still

but when it first started

I did not know

that I would begin

slowly

falling in love with you

they were small words, at first
and then there were no words at all
that could express what it was
that I was trying to tell you

but now you know
because you feel it too

 a wordless trust of faith and feelings

that travels  and stays in our hearts for ever
a timeless love of all

it just so happens

as the birds are ever flying,
one two three and more
as the wind flows through the tree lines
the leaves fall to the floor

where bluebirds sit upon the branches
and perch and sing their song
no two sounds alike in laughter
show how my heart will get along

a flight above the neighborhood
a view that changed the world
more than a mystery
but more than a dream
life is but my own to hold
a flower grown at the end of the world

something never known before

Oh you make me smile
all my heart's a flutter
just thinking about
the time we spend together

and I know that
when I close my eyes
and look in my heart
I know that you are where
I want forever to start

When I look up at the sky
and wonder how or why
I am where I am in my life
I know that reasons
have their own musings
and their own way

I will not try
to change the way of fate
or destiny
but I have imaginings of late
that lead me to feel
these chills and tinglings
that warm my heart and soul
all over smiles

when I think of you
it's all in my heart
what matters to me
and I know my life with you is free
