TIMES LIKE THIS
March ‘95
Times like this I wanna cry;
Beautiful memories pass right by.
My eyes are filled with tears of joy,
Of a love not felt by a girl nor boy.
Unclassified beings joined as one,
Plan their life for years to come.
The Ring, The Ceremony,The Night
The Home, The Kids, all just right.
In a heart so pure and filled with love.
I met you and saw my olive branch and dove.
For years to come, YOU SHALL BE MINE
And years past, REMAIN FOR ALL TIME.
Times like this I wanna cry
But I know there is always a shoulder on which I can lie.



BAD TIMING
May 97
I don’t believe it happened again,
The fourth time this week that I missed that call from that friend.
It hurts deep inside to know I was not here
But I have too much pride to shed a tear.
He doesn’t understand because he’s a taken man
That he has sparked feelings in me that were lost in the sand.
He doesn’t realize that it happened so fast.
I fell so hard, so quick, that it was a blast from the past.
You shall no longer remain anonymous because the reality is upon me
That you are a part of something that I long to be.
You are like a magician, who has me hypnotized.
From the look you gave me through your deep brown eyes.
I can’t believe it happened again,
I fell for someone who already has a friend.
Our timing was bad because we both were confused.
So I really should not feel alone and used.
Perhaps one day, in the future unknown
I’ll hear your voice on the other end of the phone.
To say the things I long to hear
Like Baby, I’m sorry and I want you here.
But until I do, I can only pray
That you and I will be more than friends one day.



TO YOU FROM ME
March ‘95
To you , I pledge my heart and soul.
With you, I’ll be until I’m old.
To you, I give my space and time.
With you, I’m a poem filled with rhyme.
To you, I hand over everything.
With you, I wait for what life will bring.
To me, you mean the entire world.
With me in your arms, you know I’m your girl.
To me you’re more than the average Joe.
With me, your life with meaning will grow.
To me, you’re sweeter than a Hershey’s Kiss.
With me, every minute that passes we will miss.
To us, we pledge a whole lifetime.
With us, in love we will conquer the tests of all windchimes.
To you, from me is all my love.
Everybit sent from God above.



TWELVE SEVEN
Winter ‘97
12 and 7 are numbers I never thought about.
But on 12-7, they began to have meaning.
A meaning that only you and I can share.
Many may try, but never see it. Though it’s there.
12 months ago, I didn’t know who you were.
7 months went by and I heard about you.
You were taken by someone who only took.
Your feeling were picked up and put down like a book.
12 weeks passed and we became associates.
7 weeks later we gave in and became lovers.
The one partnership I never thought I’d find,
ROYAL BLUE DREAMS WITHIN A KRIMSON MIND.
Many will wonder exactly how and why.
Not accounting for your life or your heart.
They’ll stare and they’ll whisper, Oh yes but still...
Understand our meaning, NO ONE EVER WILL



WHO R U?
Spring ‘95
From across the room I saw your eyes.
A connection felt as temperatures rise.
Many interruptions distracted our minds.
From all the info we wanted to find.
The unknown soul my soul did greet
I knew before I felt I just had to meet.
As time passed by we finally crossed paths
The words you sand made me laugh
A lot of things can happen in a few minutes
In 20, you showed me reality in it.
As you cleared my views, my heart ran a race.
It increased with speed and power as you looked in my face.
When I had to leave, I wanted to stay.
Knowing I’d never see you again in this way.
Whenever I am again in you vicinity.
A phone call away is all you’ll be.



As I Wrote
By: Lee Neely
As you read this I want you to think of all the good times we had
Cause as I wrote there wear tears of joy I had
As I wrote feelings came out onto paper they ran very deep
Emotions leaked from my pen and tears from my cheek
My mind is on you and my heart yearns
I dream of you every night I toss and turn
When memories of you flood my mind my voice becomes weak
My eyes began to mist and streams formed down my cheek
I'm speechless now and my cheeks are wet
But these are tears of joy that is why I wept
When you think about me smile this is what I was smiling for
It was for the memories we had in hopes that we'll have many more
