CHAPTER 1
Journey to the stars
My heart has melted into gold,
Flowing into your torn spirit,
Life hasn't been kind to either one of us,
We share sadness,
We share heartache,
We share a bond,
Journey to the stars,
Our love has traveled all around the world and back,
It still returns to the very first place we met,
A beautiful heart has formed between the both of us,
The regret,
The mourning,
The loss,
A golden rainbow finally comes out of the darkness,
Glowing forever in our hearts,
The love,
The memory,
Our fate is now sealed,
The cold winter has finally ended,
Bitter hearts melting,
My soul is rejuvenated,
Forgiveness has been sewn deep inside our bodies,
Feeling free,
Letting go,
Now our love will prosper until the end of time,
Journey to the stars.
Frozen Beauty
Our love,
Our life,
Our destiny,
Frozen forever in time,
A memory that stays in my mind,
A memory that lives in my heart,
I refuse to let it melt away,
I refuse to let go of something that was so precious,
Even though deep down I know the true ending of this story,
A frozen beauty,
A frozen memory,
A golden melody,
Playing a song forever in my heart,
But the reality hits me so hard,
The beauty starts to melt,
The beauty starts to fade,
Tears frozen in my eyes begins to melt,
Emotions flood my entire body,
My dream,
My love,
My soul mate,
True beauty that melted away so long ago,
I don't think I will ever be the same again,
My life will go on but a part of my heart has already died in the ashes of a
beautiful memory,
No longer frozen,
No long mine,
A frozen beauty.
River of Tears
Visible scars,
Raw emotions,
A heart in mourning,
Tragic events of my life,
It's hard to understand why certain things happen,
Moments that change you,
Moments that break you,
Moments that stay with you forever,
Tears flood my sad brown eyes,
With emotions so strong and powerful,
Losing my control all together,
I pray to God for strength and serenity,
He comes into my life,
He comes into my heart,
Wiping away the river of tears,
I am back on the golden road of love and life,
With precious treasures scattered all over the ground,
I will find the happiness that was lost so long ago,
Going on this journey,
With so many battles along the way,
Some that I have won,
Some that I have lost,
Life is a learning process,
We have to hurt in order to learn and grow,
The wounds will one day heal,
Bitter memories will fade away,
Never drown yourself in sorrow,
Even when the tears continue to fall,
God will reveal the rainbow of love and promise,
Healing you for all eternity,
True happiness does exist.
Melody of Love
My heart is playing a song for you,
Slowly beating with every touch and embrace,
A melody of love,
Flowing so freely through my body,
I connect with you,
I feel your spirit,
I feel your inner love,
Falling for such a beautiful human being,
Your heart is warm and giving,
Your embrace is magical,
Your kisses leave me breathless,
We both created a melody of love,
A melody that only we understand,
A melody that carries us to the kingdom of heaven,
Even after death,
Our spirits will be together,
The love will never fade,
The beauty will never die,
I will always belong to you,
You will always belong to me,
Angels of earth,
Angels of love,
Angels of God.
Rainbow Heart
A beautiful heart blooming in the sky,
Full of life,
Full of love,
Full of color,
A heart with joy and laughter,
A promise to cherish my true love,
A true gift from God,
I carry a sacred jewel that is so precious to me,
The rainbow heart,
With colors flourishing in the light,
I see the beauty,
I see the love,
I feel the glory,
A true blessing.
Love at first Sight
Never thought I would find love again,
Until I met you,
I felt a beautiful spirit following me,
I felt a warm presence surrounding me,
Love entered my heart when I looked in your eyes,
I knew from that day forward that I was going to love you forever,
Your eyes are dark and deep as the ocean,
I drown in your beauty and elegance,
Your positive spirit bringing me to tears,
Never knew that someone like you even could exist in a world like
this,
From the first kiss,
The first time I held your hand,
The first time I embraced you,
I fell in love deeply,
This moment,
This day,
This lifetime,
I will always cherish,
Many storms have come and gone,
But a beautiful rainbow has come into my life again,
Bringing me love and life,
A true promise to my golden heart.
Dying Angel
My life will one day end,
But my soul will live on forever,
I am the dying angel,
Spreading my wings over the arctic blue ocean,
With my heart breaking into pieces,
Beautiful ashes flowing into the sea,
I will be reborn into God's kingdom,
I am ready for the next challenge,
Life on earth has been bittersweet,
So much chaos is going on right now,
So much violence and heartache,
I have so many memories stored inside of my heart,
Bringing a smile to my face,
Cherishing the beautiful moments of my life,
Moments that have changed me for the better,
Walking through rough storms,
Walking through the journey of tears,
But finally embracing a golden rainbow at the end,
No more sadness or regrets,
I feel my spirit lifting to the stars above,
Glowing forever in the darkness,
I am the dying angel,
Being reborn in God's holy light.
Fatal Illusion
Wicked smiles,
Shown all around me,
This is a fatal illusion,
People who claim to have my best interest at heart,
People who claim to love me,
All but a fatal illusion,
I see behind the mask,
I see behind the motive,
A sad situation indeed,
Living in a cold world like this,
Full of people who are only trying to get over on you,
I have been lied to,
I have been used,
I have been manipulated,
Being left crying during so many seasons of my life,
The illusion is now over,
I see through the glass houses,
I am free like a bird,
With my spirit soaring with the wind,
Happiness enters the lonely heart,
Love has been cherished,
The fatal illusion is now over.
Love has found me
A beautiful autumn day,
With my heart floating on air,
I never felt something so special,
Could this be happiness?
Could this be love?
My heart tells me that it is,
I was a loner who was full of sadness,
Never knowing what it felt like to be loved,
I was a cold and bitter man,
Lost and full of resentment,
Until the golden sun melted my heart,
Opening my eyes to seek my true love,
Such a wonderful feeling,
Bringing me into an emotional sea of tears,
Love has found me,
I have come out of the darkness,
Revealing my true self,
Revealing my heart,
Embracing true freedom,
Pouring my love out to the world.
Sad Eyes
People think that they know me,
They have no idea of who I am,
I have sad eyes for a reason,
From the beginning of life until now,
I have endured a never ending rain that I thought wouldn't end,
A season of tears,
A season of turmoil,
A season of forgiveness,
Letting go of the negative people in my life,
Embracing the beauty that was hidden from me for so long,
I miss my childhood,
I miss my grandmother,
I miss my best friends of the past,
It's amazing how life can change in the blink of an eye,
One minute you're happy and then the next minute your life can be
changed forever,
This is a cold and cruel world,
Only the strongest will survive,
These sad brown eyes,
Full of love,
Full of memories,
Attached with a bitter piece of regret,
For so many reasons,
But I continue to live and grow,
Sad eyes control my entire being,
More powerful than ever,
My eyes reveal a story,
A story that will one day capture the world.
Real Happiness
I look deep inside of my heart,
Finding that beautiful black pearl,
Expressing the hidden beauty within,
I walk out into this world and find the thing that brings joy into my
life,
I am so thankful to God for everything that he has done for me,
I can see,
I can breathe,
I can love,
Meeting wonderful people who have changed my life for the better,
Blessing me with a grandmother who has loved me with a beautiful
and humble emotion,
I miss her so much,
Expressing my heartfelt words on paper brings such a fulfillment
inside of my heart,
I have my moments of happiness,
I have my moments of sadness,
Enduring tragic storms that I couldn't have imagined,
But I am still here and living,
This is a part of life,
Embracing the good and bad,
Not letting this world or people destroy you,
Close your eyes and enjoy the peace,
Pray to God at night and he will reveal the missing piece of the
puzzle,
Happiness does exist,
It's up to you to create and embrace it,
Eyes wide open,
Arms wide open,
Embrace this life.
The Highest Cloud
Dear God,
I am on the highest cloud,
Trying to reach my destiny to heaven,
You have blessed me with so much,
A heart full of love,
A loving and giving spirit,
Walking through the darkness of earth,
There is so much violence and misery on this earth,
Making me want to cry on my pillow at night sometimes,
I accept my true fate,
Whatever that may be,
I have tried to be the best friend that I could have been,
Giving and supportive,
Compassionate with empathy,
But sometimes the world can turn around and spit in your face,
But I'm still here,
With the same beautiful heart,
Nothing or no one can ever change that,
My spirit will remain unchanged,
While I sit on this high cloud,
Memories from beginning to end warm my heart so much,
My spirit will never die,
This life will be cherished.
The foundation
We built this love,
We created this love,
We share something special,
Everyday it gets stronger,
The bond is unbreakable,
Our spirits are connected,
A foundation has been built,
From the ground up,
I feel safe,
I feel secure,
I feel loved,
We are growing stronger together,
With a love that wraps around us,
I am happy,
I am whole,
I am blessed,
A foundation of love and friendship,
A foundation of freedom and faith,
A foundation of happiness.
Deep Blue Ocean
This life,
The love,
The memories,
The rainstorms,
All fill my heart with so much emotion,
I store all my feelings in the deep blue ocean,
Safe and sound,
Secure and protected,
I cherish every moment,
I step into the calm waters of earth and begin to melt,
My life has meaning,
My life has blossomed,
No longer lost in a cold world,
I have found myself and the remaining pieces of the heart that made
me whole,
The deep blue ocean,
Filled with memories,
Filled with love,
Always.
Trail of Tears
I am walking away from the trail of tears,
The sadness has come to an end,
The tears have finally dried up,
I have learned my lesson,
My heart is stronger,
My spirit remains beautiful,
My soul continues to flow through the stars of heaven,
Many people have lied to me,
Leaving me alone in the dust,
You live and learn,
I have walked away from the negative beings in my life,
Misery loves company,
I am now my own company,
A loner I will always be,
From beginning to end,
This world is filled with evil people,
People just existing with no sense of love or purpose,
I call that a wasted life,
My life is bright and meaningful,
A heart smiling with such beauty,
I am now walking on a trail of purpose and prosperity,
Happiness is now fulfilled.
My Love
My love has wrapped around you,
Keeping you safe and warm,
Holding you,
Protecting you,
Loving your heart until the end of time,
I feel so blessed,
I feel so special,
Your spirit has brought so much happiness into my life,
I will be forever grateful,
These times,
These moments,
Our memory,
Never to be forgotten in this lifetime,
My love is stronger and bolder,
Colorful with deep dark beauty,
The kindness,
The essence,
The meaning,
Circling around our kindred hearts,
Now and forever.
