Love’s Appeal

On May 21, 2012May 21, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic30 Comments

I long to be your only star
within your sky of dreams
I ask you to open your heart
repair the broken seams
I apologize for words unsaid
for those said time and again
To hurt you is not my intention
I often wonder how you’ve been
I only wish to see you smile
hear you laugh among the trees
I only long to hold you close
feel your breath beside the breeze
Chances don’t come freely
I know this in my heart
My plea you’ll hear one more time
to keep us ne’er apart

Shifting Love

On May 20, 2012May 20, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic20 Comments

Our story began as friends
sharing goals for our futures
talking, listening and laughing
like brothers and sisters

Our time spent together
is priceless beyond words
moments we’ve cherished
letting down our guards

Then a revelation came
after seeing him last night
I saw the way he looked at me
and my heart took flight

Without any fair warning
something changed deep inside
I saw him in every tomorrow
until the end of time

Never do I want
our friendship to sever
Never have I felt
so much pressure

My thoughts are confused
My body, perplexed
What shall I do?
What happens next?

One and Only

Her heart sings when he says her name
The tiniest things ignite their flame
A simple gesture he does is grand
The simplicity of taking her hand
He makes her smile when he holds the door
Old fashioned and thoughtful, which she adores
Her breath catches when he holds her close
Sensations slide to the tips of her toes
When she wakes in the morn and hears him breathe
It’s that very moment she truly believes

A Promise Everlasting

In your eyes
I’m swept away
Melodies played
as the trees swayed
Clouds parted
to light our way
and I realize
my skies
will never again turn gray

Then you stand near me
your arms open wide
You let me in your heart
and the Heavens sighed
You made me a part of
your everyday life
as your lover, your friend,
Your beloved wife

Love Again

As sure as leaves will fall
at season’s change
and rain will drop
as clouds rearrange
I have fallen through new doors opened
the key I thought was lost forever
you have found so cleverly
the lock had suffered
yet, not broken for eternity~

(for new beginnings)

When I look…

On March 10, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic63 Comments

In your eyes
I see star speckled
night skies
azure seas and
calm ocean waves
snowy trees
and soft snowflakes
grand, green meadows
dotted with
wildflowers
I could
linger for hours
In your eyes
I see a
rainbow palette
of vivid colors
and the moonlight glow
makes me thankful
You’re my beau
There’s more
I can tell you today
but I’d rather get lost
and drift away

Love’s Decree

On March 3, 2012March 3, 2012 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Romantic27 Comments

Your kindness
glows upon my world
pulling me in
forever surreal
When you give your love
my foundation shifts
like a gentle quake
I tumble in
Tenderly
You stir my soul
as a whirlwind
out of control
With you
I travel
the road to bliss
My heart’s content
A love so real
