I STAND BEFORE YOU

I stand before you naked and exposed of all my secrets. The secrets of my hurt and pain of all the joys and sorrows that life has brought my way...

Look into my heart and see its pounding steady beat of Life. The representation of what Love is supposed to be, is absent from view.

I stand before you longing, wanting and needing to be wrapped in the embrace of Love

What is Love?

Love is light and sunshine that can turn into a turbulent storm. I want to run in the sun and ride the tide...

Love rekindles the spirit and has a song all its own. I want to hear those melodious tones as my spirit is ignited with a fervor that cannot be contained...

Love is the passion that two people share; it goes beyond logic and reason: The kind of passion that makes people stare.

When you have been loved the right way, it shows in your every movement and with every breath that you take...

So, I stand here before you naked, open and innocent, crying for Love to fill up the emptiness inside that hangs from my spirit like a wounded dove...

While I wait for you to come along, I'll stand here before you and pray that you don't pass me by. When you see me, you'll catch that gleam in my eyes...

I'll stand here waiting and pray that Love doesn't pass me by...
