Love’s Appeal – Re-post

On March 3, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Love, Relationships, 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 was 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

(I’m having severe writer’s block,
so please forgive the re-post.
For those who have seen this before,
I hope you’re not too bored. ) 🙂

Unspoken

On February 25, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Melancholy, Romantic28 Comments

Your words are
empty syllables
floating in the sky
How naive I’d have to be
to miss the depth
in your eyes

Two like ships we are
with enough disparity
to balance the scale
but not enough
to change
the direction of the sail

Yet, parting ways
is what your heart
has chosen for us now
I’ll accept,
but not much time
will my heart allow

Love is deeply stronger
than any heavy fear
when you unlock the gates
and turn the key
you’ll find
I’ve always been near

A Very Special Rose

On February 23, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Blogging, Friendship, Life35 Comments

Many flowers live in gardens
Their colors add light to our days
but one bud shines brighter than others
It’s special in so many ways

This flower radiates strength
and our world is a better place
with all the love that is offered
in it’s very warm embrace

This is dedicated to my
very special blogging friend,
Granbee, also known as Rose.
She hasn’t blogged in a long time
and I miss her.
I know I’m not alone,
as she is missed by many.
She remains in our prayers
and we hope to be graced
by her presence again.
We love you, Rose ♥

Happy Heart Day! ♥

Here’s a Valentine wish
for my hubby to whom I’m smitten
and to all of you
who peek at what I’ve written,
to my dearly missed Mom,
it’s been a year since she’s been gone
to my family who support me,
they’re as strong as the sea

Today isn’t just a day for lovers,
It’s a day of love that covers
everyone who adds
color to your life,
lessens the strife,
adds calm to your crazy,
brings life to your lazy,
and adds love with a hug.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

With many x’s and o’s,
Lauren

Hearts Celebrate ♥

Do you hear the music?
Isn’t this our song?
The night you held me closely
and I knew I belonged

Do you hear my heartbeat
so in sync with yours?
It’s amazing how well we’ve fit
throughout all these years

Do you know the spell you cast
when you look into my eyes?
My knees fall weak, my dreams are you
Your love makes me high

Our happiness and hills we’ve climbed
are tightly in our minds
They’re for the scrapbook we created
full of laughter and times we cried

I wish for twenty-four more,
of making memories with you
I wouldn’t be complete, My Love,
You’re my rock; My Love so true

Happy 24th Anniversary to my Hubby
and I’m posting this to share, not to brag,
because I wish this happiness for everyone!
Sending love and hugs! ♥♥

Through the Years – Haiku ♥

New Beginnings

On January 14, 2013August 5, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Dedications, Faith, Family, Inspirational, Life45 Comments

Turn the pages from the past
Put your worries in last place
In those fretting times
where hope has vanished
search for a caring embrace

Use a shoulder if it’s offered
when tears begin to fall
They’re not a sign of weakness
but a cleansing of the soul

Take advantage of the sunshine
warming your spirit with it’s rays
and even when the clouds are rolling
there’s always reason for praise

Faith, Love and Strength
follow Hope in each new day
and with each precious baby step
You will find your way

This is dedicated to my family
and anyone who needs a “small helping”
of inspiration. ♥

I Loved You

On January 7, 2013August 14, 2013 By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Melancholy, Romantic85 Comments

I loved you not too long ago
My heart gently placed you
on a pedestal
You remained there
and could do no wrong
How beautifully we belonged

Then the pavement cracked
and I found myself
straddling both sides
trying to decide which was right
watching where my heartbeat landed

My mind was stranded
somewhere in the middle
where nothing made sense
and two and two made five

I was alive
but my time was up
I had to choose
and lose a part of me

Though forever
our love didn’t last
you will always
be a vision from my past

Maybe down the road
our lives might chance to mingle
and we could feel that hold
Just a slight tingle again
