My story to tell

My story to tell
by pothole50

It’s time for a poem my story to tell
Its tells of my love you know it so well
It's so very hard when I have to leave you
But our love is so strong it will see us through
My poems are yours that’s what I told you
Words from my heart so strong and so true
Each time they were written a story I told
So we can look back as we both grow old
At times I read them and feel such a fool
No way to write them, I follow no rule
All I write down are the things that I feel
Thoughts in my head at the time seem so real
We have survived all the things gone before
And only my love takes me to your door
I know it is hard when we are apart
You’re always with me locked in my heart
Whatever shall happen I will be there
Together forever the problems we’ll share
And each night as we cuddle safely in bed
All of your problems will leave your head
The only thing that is alive and so real
Is our love for each other the way that we feel
For that is our world that nothing can touch
Because put so simply I love you so much
Nothing can enter the world we have made
Nothing can harm you so don't be afraid
Because I am with you there by your side
I have so much love that I never hide
And safe in my arms that’s where you should be
Forget all the problems, the stress and worry
The words that I speak are always so true
Forever my darling I'll always love you....

A man who stands alone

A man who stands alone
by passionately

There is a man who stands alone, who makes my heart beat like a stampede of wild horses with his smile.
There is a man who stands alone, who can calm my darkest thoughts with just his sweet spoken words.
There is a man who stands alone, who can make my wildest fantasies come true when I look apond his handsome face.
There is a man who stands alone, who is wanting just for me.

It's Only You

It's Only You
by tsand19151

You are the one I think of everyday
You are the one I would run to
You are the one whose arms should be holding me.
You are the most beautiful woman ever created
You are the one who makes me cry
You are the one I miss with all my heart
You are the one I will always love silently from afar
It's only you.

That Night

That Night
by womball

That Night

For I saw two souls walking through the night,
And I knew this time it just felt so right

I've never felt anything like this before,
I have a pain and a hunger for more and more

Will I ever have that chance again?
To touch and taste and live again

Ten years later it's still so strong,
And deep in my heart, I did no wrong

You spoke the words I've longed to hear,
I had a grin from ear to ear

So here I am, lying in bed,
It's 2am and you're in my head

Thanks once again for a wonderful night,
And taking my soul on a cherished flight

Missing You Like Crazy

Missing You Like Crazy
by Spiderhannah

Please fight for our love my dear.
Know you will be ok our love strong,so clear.

Missing you I try to stay very busy with things.
Gardening, writing, reading with various themes.

Missing you deep down into my heart.
Praying for your return, never more to part.

You are my sweetest of wonderful destiny.
Keeper of my butterflies, you can set them free.

You are my passionate, wonderful man.
My love for you will forever withstand.

With each thought of you my heart soars
Can’t wait to tell you how much you are adored.

How can I change the way I surely feel?
You are a love thief, my heart you steal.

Kisses will never melt my inner desire.
You are my poet the one I so admire.

I feel you are with me everyday.
Thinking of you my butterflies dance and play.

You are the love of my life.
No matter how hard the strife.

Feel my presence when you are near my heart.
Sweetly my thoughts with you should never part.

Ideas: Kiss In Your Pocket

Ideas: Kiss In Your Pocket

Kiss In Your Pocket
My boyfriend (now husband!) and I were long distance. One day with his letter I sent him a "kiss." I put on my favorite shade of lipstick and kissed all over a white sheet of paper. Then I cut them all out and chose my favorite one to paste onto some red construction paper. I wrote a poem about kisses on the back and then used clear packing tape to "laminate" it. I then filled the envelope with all the other kisses and sent it off! He loved it and still keeps his "pocket kiss" in his wallet!

SILENT WISH

SILENT WISH
by tvinrose

THOUGHTS TO WONDER

I may not have spoken to you,
But my thoughts spoke of you.
I may not have seen you,
But my heart has captured your image.

My vision is filled only of you
Where you live not with me
But within me, snuggled inside me

My arms ache to hold you,
But you are not within my reach.
My lips ache to feel you,
But you are not near me in person.

I have waited for this moment
To meet my special someone
This made me stagger in wonder
Stumped speechless, stupefied
Unbelieving with sheer force

There you are, across oceans
Flesh and blood in person
Sharing emotions and passion
Bidding me in your embrace
With love so pure and true

Come baby, let's rejoice in bliss
In this newfound love of ours
Sealing it ever and forever
In waves of everlasting happiness

Ever So Near

Ever So Near
by Noeni23

When you are sad I will dry your tears
When you are scared I will take your fears
When you worry I will give you hope
when you are confused I will help you cope
When you are lost and can´t see the light

I will be there telling you it´s alright
When you are in despair, can´t find the stair
I will be your pillar being ever so near
Untill the end of time my arms are there
I will be your beacon not from afar

A feeling of love

A feeling of love
by womball

A Feeling of Love

A feeling of love is what you have helped me to find,
And once I met you it took over my mind.
You filled it with thoughts that I've never felt before,
And even if I wanted I could never truly ignore.

When I'm without you I feel suffering and pain,
For I would cross the desert just to hold you again
It's your very existence that makes my world go round,
For I feel nothing but love when you are around.

I know my love for you will never run astray,
For it continues to grow with each and every day.
My love is eternal my love remains true
For I want your beautiful face never to be blue.

Thinking about you is what I do best,
For every time I see you I know I've been blessed.
Loving you is my greatest pleasure
So isn't it obvious that I will love you forever?

Someday,somehow ......

Someday,somehow ......
by kwin

I can read between the line
Dont worry I will be fine
Someday,somehow.. i dont know how
But sooner or later i will take a bow...

The rain are dripping
And the angels are weeping
Someday,somehow..everything will be fine
As i cross the path of my life line ...

As i lay down on my bed
My eyes turns red
Someday,somehow..thoughts will fly
Asking myself is this another lie....

Someday,somehow ......

saying goodbyes

saying goodbyes
by ellennore

in your life comes the sweetest and the worst moments,
they bloom like cherry blossoms,
like cotton candies in the tree.
and falls as fast as the drops of rain.

saying goodbye is the hardest of all,
like sorry and I love You
the feeling is knife-like,
it could tear you apart.

I told him I love Him,
its better known today
while i'm still alive
than keeping my feelings hanging
and regrets burried 6th feet under.

In life people come and Go
they make and break your life
Saying I love and I hate you alike
sorry's and Goodbye seems common
in the end the real sense of the word is felt, when that person leave us to FOREVER.

My HEART

My HEART
by SILluvsMACH

you took my heart and kept it safe,
now don’t tell me that it’s starting to break,
I toss and turn and try to keep it together,
but I can’t help these tears from falling down my face......
I’m in love with an angel,
a lovely angel,
he holds my heart as if to guard it for a lifetime,
he tells me he loves me,
and oh man do I love him,
I would never do anything to harm you,
now I know I have your heart too,
I place it within my chest to beat aside of mine,
when ever I’m missing you I hold on to it,
and know that everything is going to be just fine,
no longer am I scared,
no longer am I with doubt,
for I know that you to are in love with me as much as I am in love with you,
we’re in good hands,
there isn’t anything to be afraid of,
because if you know me as well as I know you, you’ll know that I will never hurt you,
I’ll always stay true,
and I will love you for all eternity

Love in the air

Love in the Air
by womball

Love in the air

Love is in the air
With every breath that I take
We could fill the whole wide world
With all the love we make

We cultivate love's harvest
And see how well it's grown
Within your heart is where
My seeds of love are sown

As love comes into fruition
It blooms more and more each day
Our efforts are rewarded
With a most beautiful bouquet

Love grows here in abundance
And will thrive forever more
Love fills our needs completely
It holds the key to our hearts' door

Secret Love
by lucklady1990

i am not allowed to tell you
the things that are in my heart
because the truth of it is
i've been liking you from the start

it has been you since the first day
you had my heart at hello
when you're around me
i never want to to go

i'm quite surprized you don't know
that its you i like
i'd thought it was obvious
if u didn't notice how its you i always fight

i dream dreams at night
fantasies about you
then i wake up and beg
to the heavens that you'll make them come true

you know me inside out
you read me like a book
from the moment i saw you
love just took one look

i love you...
and you don't even seem to know
for all these years of friendship
my love will grow

i don't when
but one day i know you'll feel the same
because no matter what
my love will never change

With You I Have Everything

With You I Have Everything

by Bonnee(salma)

In all my life
I could have never wished
for someone as special as you
coz love like yours I've never tasted
and that it existed I had no clue.

You lift me up when I'm
feeling the weigh of the world
you whisper sweet words of love
smile and call me your girl.

Gold,silver,diamonds and pearls
can't ever take the place of you
for in my heart you'll forever stay
as I'll be in yours for you.

First Date

First Date
by Bellenla

Our eyes meet for the first time,
I am consumed.
The desire to touch you
Is too strong to fight.

Your eyes tell the story
Of someone longing for love.
My breathing is shallow.
Excitement is evident.

That first dance so special,
Our hearts pounding against each other.
Does this night have to end?
Do these feelings have to wait?

Happiness at last is ours~~
Our quest for love is over.

I Want

2009-03-21T21:15:00.000-07:00

I Want
by Holly

I want...

I want to see you glow
from head to toe
watch you laugh so hard
because I said a joke

I want to love you
like nobody has
think about the future with me
and forget about the past

I want to ease your soul
and open up your mind
give you a spin on life
and make everything fine

I want to look into your eyes
and feel your heart
give you everything you need
I won't stop, once I start

I want to hold you tight
and brush the hair from your face
Whisper, "I love you" in your ear
and feel your heart start to race

I want to give you a piece of me
that nobody else has
I'll wipe away the tears
after I said words, I could never take back

I want everything with you baby
and this is our chance
So lets stay close
hand in hand

My handsome lukman

2009-03-20T21:15:00.000-07:00

My handsome lukman

Every morning I wake to the sky so bright and blue.
I can't think where I would be if it weren't for you.

You leave me speechless just looking at you
my heart is bleeding of love as I know yours is too.

My life felt complete from the moment you walked in
I promise to love you forever for love is not a sin.

A thousand words can not express what you mean to me. I am certain that you are here for eternity.

The red beating heart and ocean so blue.
Got created something so special and that special person is you.

Never have i felt such a full feeling of being in love
but i believe in angels and that angel was you sent from above.

I will hold you close and protect you from pain
I swear to you my love, you will never hurt again.

I have prayed for the one who was meant to be.
And that one is the love of my life and his name is
LUKMAN

Only you.. forever my love

Only you.. forever my love
by ramawish

Staring at you, when eyes do not tire
Face blooms, when lips do smile
Listening to you, seems like a rhyme
Warmth of yours, feels so divine

Your thought brings along, a very sweet dream,
Making it difficult, to swim against emotional stream
Your voice brings back that lost vigor
Quite good, many times causing fervor

Where life taught me, giving without expectations
You taught me, loving without conditions

Come to me like a dream, my shy eyes wanna see you.
Meet me like a grape wine, my wet lips wanna taste you.
Be as soft as a pillow, my wide spread arms wanna hug you
Be there for me forever, as the only one I trust ...is YOU

THE LIMITS OF HEAVEN

THE LIMITS OF HEAVEN
by nakipie223

You think we’re going to settle for an ordinary love?
When I think that ours is the special kind, designed from above

There is nothing to keep us from floating through the clouds
And forget all the worries below many miles.

There is enough joy to help us rise
The loft comes from the love-heat from our eyes

And though the air might be real thin
I know that we will just begin
To find our love, our faith, our trust,
Because heaven is my limit for the both of us

You are My Miracle

2009-03-18T21:07:00.000-07:00

You are My Miracle
by Enjette

You are My Miracle

How did I ever find you?
How did I ever fall for you?
How did our path cross each other?
Do you know the most wonderful things you have done to my life?
Ever since we met, my life has been so exciting
You gave me hope and faith
When there are times I feel hopeless and faith diminishes
You gave me something to dream about
At night before I go to sleep
I gaze at your photo and wish you were here beside me
And I would say 'goodnight and sweet dreams my love'
And I would see you in my dreams touching my hair
And watching me sleep with smile on my face.
I make myself believed it's not a dream
If this is a dream I don't want to wake up
I'll just keep on dreaming about you
For you are my miracle.

JUST YOU

2009-03-17T21:07:00.001-07:00

JUST YOU
by PuddinCup

Only a year ago, broken- licking my wounds.
Guarded, believing that love would never happen.
Not for me.
Then, just a few months ago-
You.
Bringing laughter, and a kind of wonder-
Showing me what love is, what it's supposed to be.
Slowly, my guard is slipping as I fall-
Fall so hard for
You.
Knowing, always, that you will be there.
To catch me, hold me, wipe my tears-love me.
Wrapping the safety and comfort you give
all around me.
You.
Proving to me that fate or God can be kind
proving that it is possible to find that person.
The one I can't stop thinking about, and now
it's becoming impossible to live without
You.

Inspiration

Inspiration
by island5161

I think of you often thru my dull and lonely life
My heart races with excitement at your mere and mortal sight
Your gentle touch
A playful pinch
Bring a smile to my face

The thought of your grin
The tone of your laugh
Sends me trembling again and again
Not once or twice but many times over
You shiver my timber till hell freezes over

My mind races to your arms
For comfort and solace
To touch your lips
To hold you in my arms
Makes me feel like I found a lucky charm

You inspired me to love, to be gentle and caring
You inspired me to live life
With passion and daring
You inspire me to pursue happiness
And set myself free

I must thank you for your inspiration
It means more than you know
Your love and kindness fills a big hole
With every breath that I take
I would give you my soul

Am In Love

Am In Love
by Ranoosh

What am I gonna do?
I don't mean to smother you
But I just cant get enough of you
What I feel for you is more precious to me
Than the very air I breathe
The brown glow of your eyes
Is more beautiful to me than the sunrise
The warm words you say
Is more calming than the rain
It seems being with you
Has helped even the deepest Emotional pains
I once swore I'd never love again
But not only have I found love
But also gained a friend
We have our talks & say things we don't mean
But we'll always get through the bad times
What we have never seems to fade
In fact it grows stronger with each passing day
I believe what we have is real
& nothing you do or say can ever change how I feel….

Our Love Story

2009-03-16T21:06:00.000-07:00

Our Love Story
by Dannijo

I'd never known what love could be,
Until I saw your face,
Those deep green eyes, those perfect lips,
stole my heart without a trace.

I'd never known true happiness,
Until you smiled at me,
That was the moment I knew,
I'd be with you for the rest of eternity.

I couldn't believe how lucky I was,
To have you as my own,
When you told me how much you'd always loved me,
I wept for what I hadn't known.

I flew into the sky,
You were mine at last,
Now I knew the true meaning of together,
It happened all so fast.

Then my world came crashing down,
You broke my heart in two,
You loved somebody else,
And there was nothing I could do.

I cried myself to sleep at night,
I couldn't stop the tears,
All my nightmares had come true,
I'd realized my worst fears.

I felt so alone inside,
But I tried to be strong,
I tried so hard to show you,
That I was all right all along.

But inside I was screaming,
Ripping at my soul,
Trying to figure out,
What my heart could not console.

Slowly I healed,
The wound growing faint,
But the scar was still there,
Reminding of your hate.

Then one day you confessed,
How much you still cared,
You poured your whole heart out to me,
And I realized we were both scared.

Scared of all our feelings,
Of what we didn't know,
Scared how much we needed each other,
Of moving too fast, when we should have taken it slow.

That's when we both realized,
We should be together,
and you asked me to be yours,
We were meant for each other.

All the walls came crashing down,
I could tell you anything,
I loved the comfort I found,
When it was you that was listening.

Someday I will give you this poem,
When the time is right,
But for now, my love,
Just hold me tight.

Alone

2009-03-15T21:06:00.000-07:00

Alone
by momacie

Why is it that I feel this way?
I have so many “friends” that keep me in the loop
But lately I have cast them aside,
Why is this I ask myself?

Feel I have “connected” with one again,
But again it’s difficult to say the least.
We connect on so many levels.
But commitments get in the way.

Yes, again a married one has made me feel so right.
Swore they would not be married again, but here I am
Waiting to hear from him with baited breath,
To hear from him, his on line love is all it is!

I torture myself please tell me why?
Figured to find a someone single to be the one,
But then again I can’t commit but was so close that it could have been so!
I know none of this rhymes but just me stating what do I do?

Yes, guess I am looking for love,
Maybe the wrong place but is all that I have
It is what it is and that’s all I can say.
Guess I will end this with just what I said.

All That I Can't Say

2009-03-14T20:54:00.000-07:00

All That I Can't Say
by 2fresh4u

From the inside to outside I am smiling,
And no one, not even you knows why.
Too shy to express how I feel,
And so scared,
Because this can finally be real.
Everything I always wanted
Is right before my eyes,
So how should I let you know
Exactly what im feeling inside?

I guess I can start by saying
That I'll never keep a secret,
And I'll never tell a lie,
I'll be your best friend
If you need one,
Your girl till I die.

I want to show you the world
Just because you're mine,
I'll do anything for you
Cross my heart and hope to die!!!

Black Roses
by kagura027

I am the rose of Hate.
Please don’t fear me,
I did no harm.
You may not have noticed,
But I still love you.
I love the way to look at me,
With those romantic deep brown eyes
Do you love me the same?
When I would cry,
Would you be by my side?
Deep within my heart
I know you still love me
How come you don’t show it?
I show you my love everyday.
You may hate me,
But I will always and forever more
Love you
Until the day I die

I Love You Now and Forever

"I Love You Now and Forever "

"I Love You"
Want to know why?
Because you are my air,
Without you there would be no me!

"I Love You"
Want to know when?
Now and 1000 years after
I’m gone!

"I Love You"
Want to know where?
Here, there, everywhere,
Even if I’m not there
I will love you!

words don't betray

words don't betray
by skaterboy007

Sometimes i cannot find those words
To let out whats inside
'Cause you're holding the keys
As you watch from the other side

Sometimes when i walk alone
I can feel my mind in a race
To find all the perfect words
As the world around quicken up its pace

Sometimes the friends ignore or forget
But the words never betray
Thats when i remember only you
And my words ask:would you stay??

Chasing Butterflies

Chasing Butterflies
by wickedckg

I see you undress me
with your sexy eyes
from the locks of my auburn hair
down to my voluptuous thighs
I know that you want me
which is no surprise
whether or not you will get me
is still a compromise.
I contemplate allowing you
to take me as your prize
or leave you hanging by a string
in a tangle of my lies.
I switch my hips and toss my hair;
you shyly analyze
as confident as I appear to be
insecurities I internalize.
I wonder if your adoration
will ever be verbalized
or if you're terrified
of your confession being chastised.
I might tell you of my new found interest
before your fondness dies
before you walk away from me
my presence you'll memorize.
I watch you from behind my shades;
I look away as you realize
as you approach me my tummy flutters,
a feeling I recognize.
I let you silently take my hand
despite my inner cries
and we walk, and we talk;
our hearts chasing butterflies.

It’s time to forget

It’s time to forget
by blahhh123

I can’t believe it’s done, I can’t believe you’re gone.
Life’s most prettiest moments are lost
And it’s up to you to bring them back
But you believe things happen for a reason
And that it’s best for me to forget
Yet who in their right mind would want to forget something so beautiful.

Letting You Go

Letting You Go
by joyc5

Will you miss me when i'm gone?
Have you truly heard my heart's song?
I wonder if i'm removed from this space...
How quickly would i be replaced?
Replaced in your life, and in your heart...
Was i truly there from the start?
People come and people go..
In and out of life's flow.
Some stay short, some stay longer...
Those are the ones who are stronger.
I've fought a good fight...
The battle's done...
Will you miss me when i'm gone?

Why I Don't Write

2009-03-06T18:38:00.000-08:00

Why I Don't Write
by Theone2hot

Because joy became happy
Because love is pain
Because my tears are dry
Because my heart isn’t tamed

Because time won’t wait
Because it’s how I escape
Because life has cease
Because there’s no peace

Because God shall laugh
Because it guides like a staff
Because of a high without low
Because it speak and not show

Because death is real
Because three became four
Because of a golden seal
Because I closed the door

Thank You

Goodbye In Pieces
by chickenoodle

It may be goodbye as we know each other now, but if not for that I may have never felt what it is like to be loved for who I am through my strengths as well as my many faults. And I may never know again what it is like to have the raw naked truth and honesty we have shared with each other time and time again. I can't fully explain my disposition to you. but you know what you know and it is understood. Miles will soon separate us, time no doubt will move on but no matter the distance or time you will be a distraction within my mind.. curving my decisions and altering my feelings, because I have some pieces of you embedded within me.. and though they are fragments that can not be seen they will always be a remminder of the glimps I have of a love so deep and a want so bad.. Do not be lead by the words you read for time is endless and what we dream may never be... just know i have loved for you.. . I hope you find that wholeness you've been searching for so to share your happiness with me and just maybe I will share the same with you . . Or perhaps, somewhere along our ways we will find one another picking up pieces of each other again .

YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND

YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND
by aidy

i have a lot of friends
but i don't know which one i can trust
all of them help me change my life
and what am i believing for

they always say i'm their best friend
but then, treat me like a trash
i don't know if it's right to believe
on their lies that friends are forever

i wish they could know how i feel
and they would not act fake, but real
coz they always say i'm wrong
every time i correct their mistakes

i just want to know what best friend really means
is it someone whom you're always with?
or someone who can understand?
and maybe the one who brings out the best in you

i always ask myself whom i should treat my best friend
i thought it was a lost friend that i already met
coz she's the one i'm always thinking
she's never been out on my mind

but not till i met you
coz you gave me reason to stop believing
that i will find a friend
whom i waited for so long

i think i already found the person
who will change the life i'm living now
she's not perfect and good as i expected
but she can teach me to live in reality

i don't know you that much
but i can prove that you're the one i'm looking for
you're the only one who make me feel this way
a feeling that surely, no one can ever give me

i'm not good in words
and i don't know how to show what i really feel
but hoping you to know how much you mean to me
even without such words

i know we just met, but i feel so close to you
i know we just met, but i hope you're in my life to stay
coz the more i get to know you, i more i know myself
and whenever i see you, i makes me want to smile

i thought my world was coming to an end
i had forgotten how to smile, how to laugh, and how to be me
but then, i found you and taught me to bring back happiness
so don't forget me, for i will not forget you till the end

now, i'm happy with this friend i've found
i have no doubt about how i feel
many problems will continue to come
but i'm not afraid coz you're there

you're the one i need to trust
coz i know you're someone who will never let me down
and someone who will guard my deepest secret
and no one can ever replace you

when i find i can't make it,
you give me your wisdom and help me to try
you give me strength to do things i'm afraid of
just to overcome my fears

when i was silent, you spoke
when i was alone, you always come with me and comfort me
when i need someone to talk to, you're always been there
i've never been as like this with anyone as i have been with you

who else do i need to find
if the person i was searching is already at my side
so, when someone ask me who you are, a can say that,
"YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND", coz you're simply the best

Rainbows

As the rain starts to fall from the heavens I would just start to think of you, and in the mist of the rain I would see a Beautiful
Rainbow.
This Rainbow would start from you and it would finished to me
It’s cool and colorful that makes me start to think
Of you, it’s like a Big Bridged so that we can cross over it into each other Arms.
And as I start to close my eyes so that I can hear you say I love you in this rain that has fallen down a pond on as both
It feels like as if someone’s that is crying,
Just for us.

And as the rain starts to Claire and it’s not as hard before and then
The Sun starts to Shine I see the Home that we will live in,
So far away but so Claire to see it.
I could feel the Rainbow turning around as if it knew where we going
To live forever, I could see your eyes steering at the
House that you will live in.
Where the grass is so green and the kid play things in the back yard
And as we start to walk across the rainbow to our home
I would take you by the hand so that I know that you are next to
Me as we walked,
And we would both smiled at each other to take a chance of
Having a life.

They would say that end of an Rainbow is a pot of Gold
The only thing that I got is not Pot Gold
But you,
They also say that it’s the luck of the Irish and there Pot of Gold
Too.
I’m may not be Irish but who knows?
But I do have some luck at times and the only luck I got was you
To take a chance on me was the luck that you
Gave your self to found the Man that will love you and to take good
Care of you, I’ll be your Anchor for life.
I will love you for who are and our Prayers is for as
To see the reflections of a Rainbow
Through light of a raining day,
Our two Cultures and Heritages will come like a rain bow
Those will last forever.

I wished that we can share a Rainbow together hold in our hands so that we can live forever,
I will love you like a Rainbow, I love you like a Rose, and I love you
Like my first true love.
I never am anyone’s Yesterday Man but for you my Wife I’ll be
Your Everyday Man
Forever.

Cant stop dis endless rhyme
my poetic lines flowing through like the waves of sound travelling
through the other persons mind waiting for the beat to drop and kick on the mic
press the play button unravveling your limited life leaving your feelings to
wind and your anger to grind on the very quick steps we learn how to walk, learn
how to run adapt, fire gunz react and fight.happy steps of joy and love overrun with
hatred fear jealousy and pain attracting snakes that twist words into hate double
crossing fate.

For You
by Brenda v Wyk

You still always the same
There is no one like you
When I look at you
I realize how much I love you

When I see you
When i look into your eyes
I can see into your soul.

When you hold me
You make me tremble
When you kiss me
It feels like I’m in heaven.

With you by my side
There is nothing I can’t beat
Let me thank you for all
You have done for me.
To be thankful
For the way you love me.

Getting Over You

Getting Over You
by Bonnee(salma

All these years I
thought I knew
the heart that beat
inside of you.

I give you credit
you done great
you captured my heart
with plans to break.

You broke it with
your cheating way
it'll happen to you
today I pray.

I want you to hurt
as you caused me
to ache all over
till you can't see.

To stay up all
hours of the night
just wishing I was there
to hold you tight.

But I won't be
and I never will
with your cheating ways
our love you killed.

All your memories
I've swept out the door
to think of you
is such a bore.

I'll find better love
next time you see
I'm not thinking of you
so don't think of me.

You don't know what you lost
when you done me wrong
I'll find a true man
to sing me love's song.

I'm getting over you
with each passing day
I just remind myself
of your cheating way.

So this is goodbye
I won't wish you luck
you really hurt me
you cheating *&#%.

I Love You

2009-03-04T18:45:00.000-08:00

I Love You
by jsavo

I just wanted to say ''I Love You''
I know you love me too
Promise to me, that you will try to make yourself happy again and that you will look for joy in life.
Promise?
Don't waste your life on crying after me.
I loved my life.
I experienced great pain, sorrow, intense joy, I felt what it is to love someone, fall in love and I want you to experience it all over again. Remember, every love is new love.
Consume the nectar of life, let it take over your body and whole being. Feel it in your finger tips on a sunny day when walking along the road.
Keep going on and I will be there always smiling, next to you.

I hate the way

2009-03-04T18:40:00.000-08:00

I hate the way
by kerenush

I hate the way
you treated me
the way you told me
how different we were.
the way you told me
that although you loved me
you had to let me go.

I hate the way
you let me stand here
shading another tear.
Another pain is passing by
and everyone is asking why.
Another wish that it all
was different.

I know the way
it all was over
wasn't easy for me.
this distance between us
this way of sitting there
behind the screen and
you writing me an email.

I hate the way
you ended it all.
These words behind the screen
you asking me to move on
without asking if I wanted to.
without letting me to say another word
just letting everything go.

I hate the way
you never let me be
someone I wanted to be.
how I had to hide from you my
personality.
my being me.
my being myself.

I know the way
it all ended is still
written upon my heart.
I also know that now
I am ready to let it go.
I want it to take this pain
upon me and finally go.

If I let you go. .

If I let you go. . .
by James Huller

James Huller,08051191376

Struggling and stumbling,I go through the dark night without fear,
As I stuggle to find my way in this dark night,
Sranded,alone,with no one to share my burden,
It had not always been like this,
Where did things go wrong?.

When you said tou loved me,
I believed you and would have done anything to keep you beside me,
I was ready to climb Mount.Everest and wade through the pacific ocean just to please you,
I believed you were the greatest thing that's ever happened to me,
Now,you want to go.

Do you know what it means?
Do you know how committed I was to this love?
Do you know how hard I tried to make it work?
You simply did not give me time to prove myself,
You want to go,and go you will.But......If I let you go,will you still recall my name?

If I let you go?
As you wrap yourself in another's arms?
Would you remember how it felt to be in my arms?
Would you remember how contented you were when you were in my arms?
Would remember how strong my muscles felt around you?
Would you remember how my shoulder was a rest for you in times of distress?
Would you remember how hard it was for you to leave my arms for even a minute?
Would you remember,If I let you go?

If I let you go,
As he places a kiss on your lips before rushing off to work,
Would you remember how deep my kisses were?
Would you remember how alive you felt?
Would you remember that I took time to satisfy your yearnings?
Would you remember how lost you felt the moment I tilted yuor face up?
Would you remember how you would melt the moment I touched your lips?
Would you remember how weak your knees turned the moment I kissed you?
Would you remember,If I let you go?

If I let you go,
As you lie on his bed,beside him,
Would you recall how good it felt to be near me?
Would you remember how good I tasted when you licked me?
Would you recall how sweet my hair smelled when you buried your face in it?
Would you remember how glad I made you?
Would you remember,If I let you go?

If I let you go,
As you tread life's untrod paths,
As you walk with him,as you feel insecure,
Would you remember that it wasn't always like that?
Would you accept the blame or heap it on me?
Would you remember how confident and courageous you were near me?
Would you recall how madly you wanted me beside you each day?
Would you remember and bless my soul?
Would you remember,If I let you go?

If I let you go,
As you lie all,all alone in your bed,
With no one to hold you,no one to kiss you,
As the shadows frighten you,as the meowing cats scare the hell out of you,
Would you remember that you brought it on yourself?
Would you remember that shadows held no fear when you were near me?
Would you recall that the cats' meowing were music when you nwere in my arms?
Would you remember that darkness held no fear the moment I kissed you?
Would you remember,If I let you go?

You told me you wanted to leave,
That you were yired of this relationship,
That you've had enough of this love,
You were not afraid to break my heart,
You didn't feel any remorse when you said it,
Are you sure stones are not in the place of hearts ion your chest?
It pains me to know that I couldn't make you happy,
It hurts me to this,
But someone said, "If you love a thing,set it free...",
I have decided to respect your decision,
Because of my love for you,
I bid you farewell with tears.
Yet one request will I ask of thee,deny me not the request,
IF I LET YOU GO. . .WILL YOU STILL REMEMBER ME???.
Please do,because. . .I have decided to let you go.

Becuz Of U
by Theone2hot

You cheated on me twice,
That's one to many times.
You thought you could deceive me,
With all your foolish lies.
Tell me something baby
Did u really think I'd believe you??
You gotta be crazy ,
You cant get away with see Two.
I didnt want to at first,
But its time I admit.
Inside my heart I was crying,
I tried hard not to show it.
you have someone knew, I know your glad,
but u lost a good thing, the best you ever had.
u say you love me, whatever! you don't care.
Why do things always go Wrong?
Like they say: "life aint fair"
Why'd you mess it up?
After these past two years.
Don't you remember what we went through?
Hugs, kisses, laughter, and the tears?
I guess it didnt mean much,
Not to you but only to me.
Now its all gotta end,
cuz you won't do nothing but cheat.
I thought that things were different,
I thought that you had changed,
But I guess I was wrong again,
You are still playing games.
You broke my heart one last time,
I know now that you'll never be mine
you took my heart, right from my chest,
When you knew I gave you all of my best.
You had your little friend, that torn us in two
you should have came to the one, that one who really loves you
Whether you admit he did or you don't,
I won't let myself care no more,
I've told myself I won't.
I came to your house, and asked you not to leave
I cried my heart out ,and got on one knee.
but whatever makes you happy, being with him
and not with me ,you won't be
my wife ,not in your so-called I love you dream.

Heart, Mind & Soul

by Adgate3165

My heart still loves you deeply, my mind says walk away, my soul doesn't know what to do and my pain won't go away.

In my heart you stand before me, in mind you are out the door, in my souls I try to find the peace to set myself at ease.

My heart, my mind, my soul pull me three different ways. My heart wants to be with you, my mind says walk away, my soul is telling me to leave this pain and quilcky run away.

Who do I listen to?

What do I do?

Do I stay or leave this pain?

I know my mind is right, but how do I tell my heart? When my heart finally understand, will my soul still have the strength to stand?

dreaming of chantilly lace

rememberring his pretty boy face

listening to ella paying her dues

belting out my Valentine blues

wondering the thoughts in his head

stamping fleur-de-lis in red

reading his words of fine craft in print

wishing I could see him in Franklin Mint

contemplating his fiery Italian charm

wanting to lick up his arm

smoldering deep within my skin

anticipating hymn once again

Jomblo Itu keren lho!

2009-02-12T23:41:00.000-08:00

Mendingan jomblo daripada maksiat

Secara bahasa, menurut Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia, jomblo itu artinya perempuan tua yang nggak laku-laku alias perawan tuwir. Tapi seiring berjalannya waktu, terjadi perluasan makna pada kata jomblo. Kini, jomblo diartikan sebagai julukan “trendy” buat mereka (baik cowok maupun cewek) yang masih nyorangan alias single, belum punya pacar, atau belum punya soulmate. Pokoknya masih enak nyendiri aja (atau memang situnya belum ada yang ngajak jalan barengan?).

Sob, dari hari ke hari opini media yang memojokkan para jomblo semakin tak terkendali. Remaja kian diarahkan untuk berani mengekspresikan rasa sukanya kepada lawan jenis dengan berpacaran. Setel tayangan-tayangan sinetron di tipi, tiap hari ngajarin cinta-cintaan yang tolol, manja, sekuler dan ah.. pokoknya geblek deh. Belum lagi ditambah acara-acara gosiptaintment yang menjamur dimana-mana bak cendawan di musim hujan, membuat permasalahan cinta menjadi problem utama dalam hidup manusia. Kedekatan seorang selebritis dengan lawan jenis dikupas habis dengan bumbu sana-sini yang macem-macem, bahkan hal yang sebenernya sepele pun diekspos ke publik. Aksi “penembakan” yang dilakukan remaja diabadikan dalam “Katakan Cinta”. Cinta yang muncul dalam waktu singkat pun ada di “Cinta Lokasi”. Perselingkuhan di antara mereka sampai-sampai diadukan ke “Detektif H2C” atau dengan pembuktian lewat “Playboy Kabel”.

Parahnya, remaja mengkomsumsi semua tayangan diatas setiap minggu bahkan setiap hari. Seolah-olah mereka membiarkan reality show itu mencuci otaknya, sehingga dapat dengan gampang teraplikasikan dalam kehidupan sehari-harinya. Cinta… cinta… dan cinta… Tiada hari tanpa ngobrolin cinta. Otomatis secara psikologis ada beban tersendiri dalam perkembangan jiwa mereka. Malu binti nggak pede dalam kesendiriannya. Merasa terkucilkan disaat kebanyakan temen-temennya udah pada punya gebetan meski baru usia belasan tahun. Pengaruh media kini telah mendorong murid-murid SMP untuk Saatnya Mencari Pacar juga. Waaa… bisa berabe euy lamun kieu mah!

Maaf-maaf, bukannya kita mau membudidayakan status jomblo. Bukannya mau ngelarang temen-temen jomblo untuk nyari pasangan. Bukan juga mengajak para jomblo untuk tabbatul (membujang, red). Tapi kalo upaya pelucutan label jomblo selalu berujung pada aktivitas pacaran, mendingan tetep istiqomah aja menyandang status jomblo. Seperti pepatah bilang, biar jomblo asal selamat dari aktivitas maksiat. Setuju?

Valentine????No Way

2009-02-12T23:38:00.000-08:00

Bulan Februari sudah datang kembali membawa iklim segar yang dingin. Bagi kebanyakan orang, hari yang paling ditunggu-tunggu di bulan ini adalah hari yang jatuh setiap tanggal 14 Februari, yaitu hari Valentine.

Yep! Merayakan Valentine’s Day sangat digandrungi oleh kaum remaja (bahkan remaja kolot juga). Pada hari itu banyak orang mencoba untuk menunjukkan cintanya kepada keluarga, kerabat karib atau orang-orang yang sangat dikasihi.

Tetapi, kebanyakan ucapan kasih sayang ini lebih dominan ditujukan buat Sang Pacar. Dan biasanya isi dari ungkapan sayangnya tuh sentimentil berat, penuh rayuan gombalis bahkan ada ucapan yang menjurus ke tindakan bodoh yang tak senonoh. Selain ngirim kartu ucapan, banyak juga yang ngirim hadiah dalam bentuk kado, seperti Cupid Doll, karangan bunga, kotak berhias kembang gula atau gambar-gambar fantasi cinta. Dan yang paling khas adalah ngirim coklat berbentuk hati. Nggak cukup sampe disini, perayaan Valentine Day belum sreg tanpa mengadakan pestaphora, seperti pesta dansa ria diiringi lagu-lagu cinta dan sejenisnya.

Various definition for Valentine

“The date of the modern celebration, February 14, is believe to derive the execution of a Christian martyr, Saint valentine, on February 14, 270.” ¹

Tanggal 14 Februari itu adalah perayaan modern yang berasal dari hari dihukum matinya seorang martir atau pahlawan Kristen, yaitu Santo Valentine pada tanggal 14 Februari 270 Masehi.

“A day on which lovers traditionally exchange affectionate messages and gifts. It observed on February 14, the date on which Saint Valentine was martyred.” ²

Sebuah hari dimana orang yang sedang dilanda cinta secara tradisional saling mengirimkan pesan cinta dan hadiah-hadiah. Hari itu diperingati pada tanggal 14 Februari dimana Santo Valentine mengalami martir (seseorang mati sebagai pahlawan karena mempertahankan kepercayaan atau keyakinan).

“The Saint Valentine who is spoken as the apposite Rhaetia and venerated in Passau as its first bishop…” ³

Santo Valentine yang disebutkan itu adalah seorang utusan dari Rhaetia dan dimuliakan di Passau sebagai Uskup yang pertama.

³ Encyclopaedia Britannica Volume XIV, page 949

Valentine Day in history

Sejak dulu di kota Roma pada abad ke 4 SM, perayaan kasih sayang itu sudah ada. Tanggal dan bulannya pun tetap sama sampe sekarang. Namun dulu perayaannya nggak dinamakan Valentine Day, karena perayaan kasih sayang itu sebenarnya untuk menghormati dewa mereka yang bernama Lupercus.

Perayaan yang berbentuk upacara itu diselingi penarikan undian dalam rangka mencari pasangan. Dengan menarik gulungan kertas yang bertuliskan nama, para gadis akan mendapatkan pasangannya kemudian mereka menikah untuk jangka waktu setahun. Sesudah itu, mereka bisa ditinggalkan begitu saja. Dan kalau sudah sendiri, mereka menuliskan namanya lagi untuk dimasukkan ke kotak undian pada upacara tahun berikutnya.

Kegiatan rutin seperti itu sudah dilakukan kurang lebih 800 tahun lamanya. Dan ketika Katolik mulai berkembang pada waktu itu, para pemimpin gereja ingin ambil andil dalam perayaan tersebut, sehingga untuk mensiasatinya, mereka mencari seorang Santo (Orang suci untuk agama Katolik) sebagai pengganti dewa kasih sayang, Lupercus. Mereka menemukan calon pengganti Lupercus yaitu Santo Valentine, seorang Uskup yang tewas sebagai martir sekitar 200 tahun sebelum masa itu.

Alasan untuk memilih Santo Valentine sebagai pengganti dewa Lupercus pada hari kasih sayang, nggak terlepas dari riwayat si Santo itu sendiri. Konon, ia dihukum mati Kaisar Claudius II karena melanggar dekritnya. Tahun 270 SM, kekaisaran Roma memerlukan sejumlah tentara. Sang Kaisar mengeluarkan dekrit yang melarang perkawinan. Sebab, dengan perkawinan, sang tentara dikuatirkan bakal nggak bersemangat dalam perang. Ia akan teringat terus keluarga yang ditinggalkan. Tapi Uskup Valentine berusaha menolong pasangan yang sedang jatuh cinta dan ingin membentuk keluarga. Pasangan yang menikah lalu diberkati di tempat yang tersembunyi. Namun praktek itu akhirnya ketahuan juga, lantas Santo Valentine pun dihukum pancung.

Santo Valentine

Oleh karena dasar itulah Sang Santo dipilih menggantikan kedudukan dewa kasih sayangnya orang Roma, Lupercus. Sebab menurut mereka, peranan Uskup Valentine kepada Sang pecinta amat besar.

Sesuai perkembangan, siasat pemimpin gereja katolik itu nampaknya berhasil dengan sukses. Soalnya upacara kasih sayang tersebut jadi semacam rutinitas ritual yang bagi mereka wajib dirayakan. Dan untuk mencairkan kesan formalnya, mereka membungkusnya melalui hiburan-hiburan atau pesta-pesta yang pada saat itu nampaknya sudah amat sangat memprihatinkan. Karena dengan cara tersebut, banyak remaja-remaja yang terjebak pada pola perayaan awal hari kasih sayang. Seperti melakukan hubungan seks sesuka hatinya, gonta-ganti pasangan semaunya. Apalagi di zaman sekarang yang serba instan, serba cepat dan pokoknya serba serbi deh. Dikuatirkan pola tersebut semakin mendarah daging di benak khalayak.

Patut diingat, yang membedakan antara cinta dengan seks adalah cinta berasal dari hati nurani sedang seks berasal dari nafsu birahi. Dan semua yang mereka lakukan itu sebenarnya bukan lagi didasari oleh kasih sayang, tetapi hawa nafsu belaka.

Valentine dalam perspektif Islam

Sebagai generasi muslim modern yang intelek, kita mesti kritis dalam melihat suatu persoalan. Nggak level dong kalo cuma ikut-ikutan aja, itu sama aja dengan kebo yang dicocok hidungnya. Kita harus tahu dulu gimana agama memandangnya? Apa untung ruginya secara akal dan mental? Termasuk untuk masalah yang satu ini, kita harus bisa thinking smart alias berpikir cerdas, gitchu..

Yang namanya cinta itu adalah fitrah dan anugerah yang diberikan Allah buat manusia. Rasulullah SAW juga menganjurkan kita untuk memberikan cinta dan kasih sayangnya kepada sesama manusia. Hanya saja, pengertian cinta dan kasih sayang yang dianjurkan Rasulullah SAW bukan seperti perayaan hari valentinan yang cuma memfokuskan cinta pada lawan jenis dan cenderung mengumbar hawa nafsu. Akan tetapi kasih sayang yang esensinya lebih hakiki. Seperti kasih sayang kepada ortu, adik, kakak, isteri atau suami dan saudara sesama muslim. Nggak cuma segitu, anda bahkan harus menyayangi hewan, tumbuh-tumbuhan dan lingkungan. Pokoke kasih sayang seorang Muslim tuh sungguh komplit dan penuh manfaat, sob!

Kalo kita tarik garis lurus dari sejarah yang sudah saya kupas tadi, sebenarnya valentinan itu merupakan bagian dari acara keagamaan umat nasrani. Bagi kita umat Islam, melibatkan simpati terhadap kegiatan dan perayaan agama lain dibatasi kedalamannya. Bahkan kalo bersandar pada pedoman aqidah yang hakiki, kita musti tegas pada prinsip.

Lakum diinukum waliyadiin.. Bagimu agamamu, bagiku agamaku..

Dan ingat nasihat Rasulullah SAW ini :

“Barang siapa meniru suatu kaum, maka ia termasuk kaum itu.” (HR. Abu Daud dan sanadnya diperkuat oleh Ibnu Taimiyah).

So, generasi muda muslim jelas harus menolak! Menolak bukan berarti memusuhi, melecehkan atau mengucilkan. Bukan, bukan. Gimanapun juga Islam menekankan toleransi antar pemeluk beragama. Hanya bukan dengan dalih toleransi kita ikut merayakan kepercayaan agama lain. Jadi, kita sebagai muslim nggak boleh turut merayakan valentine.

Kalo anda sangat menghargai nilai keimanan dan bercermin pada aqidah, mendingan nggak usah ikut-ikutan deh. Lagian ngapain sih kasih sayang dipestain segala? Di zaman sekarang, Valentine’s Day is Business Deal. Valentine’s Day tuh udah dijadiin akal-akalan si produsen bisnis yang hanya memedulikan untung materi, soal moral itu urusan orang lain, pikir mereka.

Baiklah, kembali ke laptop…

Sebelum sang pastur Valentine dipenggal batang lehernya, ajaran Allah SWT dari Adam AS sampe Muhammad SAW sudah mengutamakan konsep kasih sayang dalam lika-liku syi’arnya. Kasih sayang akan tetap berpijar terang dalam hati nurani apabila tertanam niat yang ikhlas. Terpelihara selamanya. Jadi, bukan hanya “hidup” atau “dihidupkan” untuk satu hari saja. Yang divisualisasikan dengan bermacam-macam cara meriah yang cenderung hura-hura dan mubazir. Tak jarang perayaan valentine ini diselewengkan untuk hal-hal berbau negatif dan maksiat.

Eh, kesannya nih sehabis bervalentine, kasih sayang yang semula diagung-agungkan itu bakal terlupakan atau malah dilupakan. Bukankah itu sebuah kamuflase? Sebuah kasih sayang tanpa akar keikhlasan. Sayang sekali…

Dan untuk masalah cinta ini nggak bakalan ada deh yang nandingin Rasulullah SAW. Sebab, Beliau tuh begitu mencintai kita sebagai umatnya dan ingin sekali melepaskan kita dari siksa abadi api neraka. Beliau rela berkorban apa saja untuk berdakwah menyelamatkam umatnya. Tulusnya kasih sayang beliau kepada kita sampai diabadikan Allah SWT dalam Al-Qur’an Surat At-taubah ayat 128.

“Sungguh telah datang kepadamu seorang Rasul dari kaummu sendiri, berat terasa olehnya penderitaanmu, sangat menginginkan (keimanan dan keselamatan) bagimu, amat belas kasihan lagi penyayang terhadap orang-orang mukmin.”

Makna Cinta ala Khalil Gibran

2009-02-12T23:26:00.000-08:00

Bagi Gibran cinta mengarahkan manusia pada Allah, dan karena cinta pula Allah mempertemukan diri-Nya kepada manusia. Lantaran itu dalam pandangan Gibran cinta sesungguhnya adalah cinta atas nama Allah dan cinta kepada Allah itu sendiri, karena segala sesuatu adalah pantulan dan imanensi dari Sang Mahacinta. Cinta kepada yang lain selain Allah, tetapi atas nama dan di dasarkan pada Allah akan membawa manusia dan alam semesta kepada persekutuan dengan Allah. Hal ini terungkap jelas dalam tulisannya yang berjudul Cinta Keindahan Kesunyian, (Yogyakarta, Bentang Budaya, 1999, hal. 72-74)

"Cinta membimbingku mendekati-Mu namun kemudian kegelisahan membawaku menjauhinya. Aku telah meninggalkan pembaringanku, cinta, karena takut pada hantu kelupaan yang bersembunyi di balik selimut kantuk. Bangun, bangun, cintaku, dan dengarkan aku. Aku mendengarkan-Mu, kekasihku! Aku mendengar panggilan-Mu dari dalam lautan dan merasakan kelembutan sayap-sayap-Mu. Aku telah menginggalkan pembaringanku dan berjalan di atas rerumputan. Embun malam membasahi kaki dan keliman pakaianku, di sini aku berdiri di bawah bunga-bunga pohon Almond, memperhatikan ruh-Mu."

Gibran tidak hanya menekankan cinta sebagai dasar hubungan antara manusia dengan Allah, tetapi lebih jauh dari itu melalui dan dalam cinta manusia diarahkan, dituntun sampai pada tahap akhirnya hidup dalam persekutuan dengan Allah. Cinta melampaui keterbatasan manusia, menembus ruang fisik dan berjumpa dengan Allah. Dengan demikian cinta ditempatkan Gibran sebagai bentuk hubungan terpenting dan tertinggi.

Agar sampai pada persekutuan dengan Allah melalui Cinta, bagi Gibran cinta itu harus berangkat dari peran manusia yang kongkret dalam kodrat kemanusiaan dan potensi-potensinya yang lebih jauh dan luas. Dalam Triloginya Sang Nabi, Taman Sang Nabi, dan Suara Sang Guru (Yogyakarta, Pustaka Sastra, 2004, hal 212) dengan jelas Gibran menggambarkan tentang hal tersebut.

"Kalian orang-orang beriman yang dapat menemukan adanya suatu dasar untuk kemajuan seluruh umat manusia dalam sifat baik manusia, dan bahwa dalam diri manusia terdapat tangga kesempurnaan yang menuju Roh Kudus? Jika kalian dapat berlaku demikian, maka kalian akan seperti bunga bakung di taman kebenaran yang abadi harumnya baik tersimpan dihirup manusia atau tersapu oleh angin lalu."

Hal senada dikatakan Gibran dalamSemua Karena Cinta (Yogyakarta, Narasi, 2005, hal. 54)

"Hidup tanpa cinta bagaikan sebatang pohon yang kokoh berdiri namun dahannya kering, tanpa dihiasi buah ataupun bunga."

Sejalan dengan pandangan mistik agama samawi, bagi Gibran persatuan Allah dan manusia tidak hanya terjadi dalam cinta yang meluap-luap dan berkobar-kobar kepada Allah dalam ekstase. Gibran lebih memandang pengalaman mistik dari aspek etika. Pengalaman mistik dalam pandangan Gibran tidak berarti melarikan diri dari tugas dan tanggungjawab hidup di dunia ini, dengan menyingkir untuk masuk dalam ekstase kebahagiaan untuk diri sendiri saja, membelakangi dunia serta melupakan segala penderitaan hidup diri sendiri maupun orang lain. Baginya mistisisme yang hanya mementingkan diri sendiri adalah egoisme alias pengingkaran terhadap kodrat manusia. Gibran menekankan bahwa relasi cinta antara Allah dan manusia baru akan menjadi nyata bila melimpah ke dunia dalam wujud cinta kepada sesama. Ini harus terjadi bukan dengan kata-kata, melainkan dalam belas kasihan dan kurban diri.

Wujud tertinggi dari cinta bagi Gibran adalah terlibat atau melibatkan diri dalam dunia; dan bentuk keterlibatan itu dimaknai oleh Gibran dengan kerja. Kerja atau pekerjaan adalah satu-satunya wujud relasi manusia dengan Allah dalam dunia, sebagai sebuah bentuk kurban diri yang kongkret. Kerja yang dimaksudkan Gibran tidak hanya melibatkan daya fisik tetapi juga pikiran dan perasaan manusia. Melalui kerja manusia dapat mewujudkan dirinya sebagai individu. Dengan bekerja manusia dapat melebur dalam persatuan dengan sesama, dan dengan bekerja pula manusia dapat menjumpai Allah di dalam alam semesta. Hal ini dilukiskan Gibran dalam Triloginya (hal.28-29)

"...aku berkata bahwa hidup memang kegelapan, jika tanpa hasrat dan keinginan. Dan semua hasrat-keinginan adalah buta, jika tidak disertai pengetahuan. Dan segala pengetahuan adalah hampa, jika tidak diikuti pekerjaan. Dan setiap pekerjaan akan sia-sia, jika tidak disertai cinta. Bekerja dengan rasa cinta, berarti kalian sedang menyatukan diri dengan diri kalian sendiri, dengan diri-diri orang lain - dan kepada Allah."

Gibran meyakini bahwa kerja merupakan dimensi mendasar hidup manusia di dunia. Latar belakang pemikirannya adalah karena manusia ialah citra Allah, juga karena perintah yang diterima dari Penciptanya untuk menaklukkan dan menguasai dunia. Bagi Gibran semua perkerjaan manusia harus berorientasi pada cinta. Karena kerja yang berlandaskan pada cinta, maka melalui kerja atau pekerjaan manusia tidak hanya mengubah kodrat, tetapi juga mewujudkan dirinya sendiri dan membangun masyarakat keluarga dan bangsa.

Bagi Gibran cinta tidak punya makna selain mewujudkan maknanya sendiri. Cinta tidak memberikan apa-apa pada manusia, kecuali keseluruhan dirinya, dan cintapun tidak mengambil apa-apa dari manusia, kecuali dari dirinya sendiri. Cinta tidak memiliki atau dimiliki, karena telah cukup untuk cinta. Namun jika manusia mencintai dengan hasrat dan keinginan, maka manusia harus meluluhkan diri, mengalir di dalamnya, dan terlibat. Hanya saja dalam kehidupan manusia cinta yang sempurna tidak dapat ditemukan. Kehidupan adalah tabir kegelapan, berkerudung dan bercadar. Melalui dan dalam cinta manusia senantiasa digiatkan untuk melakukan pencarian makna kehidupan dengan mengamalkan cinta kasih, tetapi kesempurnaan cinta hanya ada dan dimiliki oleh Allah.

"Apabila kalian mencinta, janganlah berkata: "Allah ada di dalam hatiku" tetapi sebaliknya kalian merasa: "Aku berada di dalam Allah" Dan jangan kalian mengira bahwa kalian dapat menentukan arah cinta, karena cinta apabila telah menjatuhkan pilihan pada kalian, dialah yang akan menentukan perjalanan hidup cinta." (Trilogi hal.14)

Dalam kehidupan, manusia tidak mampu mengukur kualitas cinta, sebab kepenuhan cinta sesungguhnya adalah Allah itu sendiri. Allah adalah awal dan akhir kehidupan, Allah adalah cinta, maka hanya dalam dan melalui cinta manusia berjalan dan mengarahkan dirinya kepada Allah.

"LOST" Dinner
My boyfriend really likes the television show "Lost." For the season premiere, I decided to surprise him with a dinner that was based on the show. I had never seen the show myself, so I spent all day researching what kinds of foods the characters ate on the island. I made a ham steak to represent the boar that was hunted, I made my own DHARMA Initiative food labels for a can of green beans, a bottle of soda, and a box of dehydrated potatoes to make mashed potatoes, and I had labels for Apollo bars. I also made a fruit salad, and we drank our drinks out of coconut cups. I also printed a DHARMA symbol for the outside of the door. He was so surprised and loved all the thought and effort I had put into making this dinner from him!

5-Destination Dinner
My wife and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary last year and being the romantic man I am I wanted to make it special. After much thought, I came up with the idea of taking her on a trip...sort of!! I picked 5 places I thought might be romantic to her and I had a guy at my job print out these huge posters of romantic settings from those places. I picked Paris, Bermuda, Italy, and so on. I then put these on all 4 walls in 5 rooms in my house. After that I found restaurants close by that served food from that particular area and set up a dinning experience for that place. So we had dinner, in Paris while looking at the view from the Eiffel Tower. I even bought reflective stars to place on the ceiling, I mean it was awesome. It was a lot of work but definitely worth every minute because my sweetie is so so special.

70's Night of Romance
One night I ran a bubble bath for my girlfriend, while she was busy in the bath, I replaced the bulbs in the basement with black light bulbs and I also brought in a black light lamp. I put a mattress on the floor with a white sheet over it. I also had a bunch of fluorescent markers and plenty of paper. The mood was set! When she came downstairs, I put on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. She was really surprised to see what I'd done. We spent the whole night writing on each other, on the bed, writing notes to each other on the pieces of paper, and enjoying each other under the glow of the black lights. It was a night to remember!

A Garden Enclosed
On our honeymoon, my husband and I read part of the Song of Solomon to each other before consecrating the marriage. So for our first anniversary I recreated the evening with a little twist. In the story, the woman invites the man into her "garden". So I did just that. I put a chocolate key (that I got at the dollar store near Valentine’s Day) into my husband’s lunch with an invitation to "come into my garden," and a tag on the key that stated that it was the key to unlock the door. (“Here is the key to a garden enclosed, a spring shut up, a fountain sealed." -- Song of Solomon) Then I decorated our home to look like a garden by putting vines around the doorframes and filling it with flowers. To add to the garden-like atmosphere, I lit incense (with flower fragrance) and played one of those nature cds in the background. I then laid waiting for him in our bed sprinkled with flower petals wearing only three flowers in places (I am sure you can guess where). I encourage you and your spouse to read the book together, in parts. It’s very romantic and may inspire a few ideas of your own.

A New Country
Knowing we could not afford a romantic getaway, I decided to bring the world to my Significant Other. I used my computer and created a country, with him the king, of course, created a language, some laws, designed some money, created a passport with a VISA to this country, designed a visitor's book detailing all of this. Then I created a "You are entering" type of sign and put it up in the room that was transformed into another country. Low lights, tinsel (from Christmas), candles, a crown. The day before the "occasion" he was given a passport to this country along with clothing instructions (would not want to stick out (pun intended) in the crowd. When he got up in the morning he showered, dressed in his bright red robe and entered the pearl beaded entranceway to another world. There I fed him grapes, poured drinks, massaged and pampered him the entire day. No TV, just soft music and total focus on him. The "king" tipped royally.

A Night On The Roof
We went to our favorite little apartment by the sea that we rent from time to time but to avoid the monotony, we took our bed and some candles up to the roof. It was the perfect night!

A Ring Of Fire
Have the following things ready: a big circle of candles, blindfold, flower petals that spell out "I love you!", some music that the 2 of you like, and a piece of paper with 101 things that you love about the person. Now before your love walks in the door blindfold them and stand them in the circle of candles and as you light them say things like, “This is for every kiss,” “This is for our love,” etc. until the last candle is lit. Take off their blindfold and at that moment give them the 101 reasons why you love them and place on the music that is special to the two of you. This is a very romantic way to start the night with your love!

A Shared Treasure Hunt
A few years ago my boyfriend had to work till late in the evening so I decided to surprise him with a treasure hunt. I had some nice envelopes and stationary and left clues all around the house. The house was dark, and silent. The first clue was taped to the front door for when he arrived. I included a book of matches and the rules of the game. I offered hints for the price of a kiss and a message that read, "Follow the clues to light your way." The first clue also included a small candle for him to light. I hid wine glasses, a chilled bottle of our favorite wine, chocolate to share, and a couple of little gifts for him. As he found the items, he had small tasks to complete...like choosing a song and dancing with me, sharing a glass of wine with me, things like that. With each clue I included a candle for him to light, after he had found all the clues and lit all the candles and turned on the music and opened the wine and fed me the chocolate it really enhanced the mood. Needless to say the evening was perfect and unforgettable. He still has all of the clues and even the matchbook (four years later!) and every now and then we run across them and it still makes him smile.

A Trail Of Love
When your better half gets home have a note outside the entry door with some directions on it, telling him/her what to do as they enter the house. Have a trail of notes in places that you know they will go to, giving them more directions. In the notes you tell them to take off clothes, shoes, etc... follow the trail of rose petals you have placed on the floor leading to whatever room you plan on being intimate in. Have the room decorated with some type of arrangements that will lead you up to the moment to dance for your partner. Make sure you have lit candles and sexy dancing music playing. Hide in a room until your partner has followed ALL directions. Then you come out and do your thing. What a night to remember!

A trip to Hawaii in your bedroom
My husband had a wonderful evening planned for me one night after a stressful day of tending the children I walked into our bedroom and was amazed to find a tropical paradise. He had gone to a local party supply place and bought a cardboard palm tree, a sign that said Aloah, alot of plastic lae, Bananas coconuts,and pineapples from the grocery store. He told me to sit on the bed and we watched a travel video about Hawaii, ate cut up pineapple and he gave me a massage with tropical oil. It was a wonderful evening.

An Intimate Look at the City
My fiancée and I live in the Chicago suburbs. We went into the city one weekend to meet up with friends and decided to get a hotel room for the Friday evening. After grabbing a bite to eat, we went out to the Lake Michigan shoreline. We were snacking on food and talking when she pulled a wine bottle and two glasses out of an oversized bag. As the sun set and the lights came up on the shoreline we toasted a great start to a fun weekend. I was speechless the walk back to the hotel. I had been to downtown on many dates, but never one that was as nice as that evening.

City Lights Anniversary
It was our first year anniversary and I wasn't planning anything because money was tight. So on the day of our anniversary, and to my complete surprise, he told me to be ready at around 5pm. I got ready and he came and picked me up. He told me that I had to be blindfolded to our destination. The drive took forever. We finally got to where he wanted me and took my blindfold off. It was in the middle of Manhattan, NY (Times Square). I was so surprised! Believe it or not, we live about 45 minutes away from Manhattan, and this was our first time going there together! We spent the rest of the night just walking around, shopping a little bit, getting our picture taken, eating dinner, and then my favorite was riding on a horse driven carriage. It was by far the most romantic thing anybody has ever done for me.

Dancing to Violins
The day of our one-year anniversary, my boyfriend came and picked me up at my house and took me to this gorgeous building, downtown. Once inside, he took me to the dance floor. It was all wood and very ornate; gorgeous! The next thing I know, I hear violin music playing! A friend of his knows how to play the violin and came and played some of our special songs while we danced. It was so special. Just him and I on the dance floor was magical. Then he took me to dinner and on a carriage ride around Downtown. It was the most memorable evening we've ever had. When I think of how much time and effort it took for him to plan this evening, it makes me love him even more!

Escalator Kisses
My boyfriend and I have this custom while going on escalators: while on it, he often stands on the stair below mine so that he would appear shorter and could hug me around the waist, and I could hug him around the shoulders. Then he would crane up to kiss me on the chin or cheeks, and I would return by kissing him on the forehead or his cheeks. It's always fun and every time we see an escalator in front of us, no matter where we are, (shopping malls, train stations etc.), we can't wait to get on it!

Grocery Store Fun
Grocery shopping with your mate can be an experience from hell, but here's a tip. Visit your local card store and pick up three little cards that are about the size of your palm. On each one write something creative, example: I'll have something waiting for you when we get home or guess what I'm not wearing. While grocery shopping, slip him these tiny cards. I'm sure he'll be pleasantly surprised and you'll find how fast your grocery shopping gets done. Another good place for this idea is at a restaurant.

Movie Dates
The next time you go to the movies with your love, sit in the top row seats where the arm-rests can fold down and there aren't any people behind you. Then, you can snuggle all you want to without fear of offending somebody or being uncomfortable. This is especially nice when you go to see romantic movies.

NYC by night
This is perfect if you live in NYC, but if not, try to find something of the like. On their one year anniversary, my friend's boyfriend picked her up in a limo and drove around the city to the pier, where there was a yacht, which served a 3-4 course dinner. The yacht took them around the NYC skyline, and at night, this is the most incredible thing, and one of the most romantic. She went home, literally floating.

New York Surprise
My boyfriend and I started dating when I was in Europe for a summer and he was back in the States. We both go to school in the Midwest, but he is originally from the suburbs of New York City. A week after I returned from Europe, we went to New York to meet his family, and he had set up a surprise for me: early in the day, while I was taking a nap, he went into the city to "set things up," while his friends entertained me. That night, we went out for dinner at an exquisite Indian restaurant, and then on a carriage ride around Central Park, then to see a Broadway musical, and at the end of the night, we didn't go back to the suburbs. Instead, we stayed at the Waldorf Astoria hotel, where he had already set up a bottle of champagne and two glasses. It was so romantic, and more than I could have ever dreamed of!

Parking Lot Romance
My husband and I have been married for almost 3 years and we want to be newlyweds forever. We've already found out that it’s easy to just take each other for granted and be too comfortable with what you have. To keep things spicy we're trying to keep impressing each other. One early morning, I went out to the car and next to it, with blue & pink chalk, I wrote in big letters on the pavement "Have a great day, Honey. I love you!" We live in an apartment complex so other people saw my message and when he left for work he had to do a double take. He loved it! He came back in and gave me the biggest hug and kiss! I could tell he wanted to stay. He's still thanking me and it’s been 1 1/2 weeks.

A Cute Gesture
I had just met a guy about a month ago and we went on a date. We would talk on the phone at night, and at school, we would meet each other at break and walk each other to our next class. One day, while we were walking in the halls to class, he asked me to hold his binder because he had to tie his shoe. I was watching him "pretend" to tie his shoe and was wondering why. Then I looked down at the binder that I was holding. On the front, on a piece of paper, it said "Will you go out with me?" There were little hearts everywhere and our intials joined with “+” all over. It was the cutest thing a guy did for me.

A Memorable Toast
My fiancé and I went to a 25th wedding anniversary a few days ago. I sneaked up to the bar while he was in the bathroom and got 2 glasses of the champagne the couple toasted each other with (the bartender was quite generous about it when I told him what I intended to do with it). When my fiancé got back, he saw the champagne sitting on the chair in front of him. I raised my glass and said, "To Erik. May our marriage be as happy as this couple's is and may it last twice as long.” We toasted each other then. He thought it was really sweet.

Be a Little Creative
My boyfriend of 2 years and I recently went to a popular bar and grill for dinner. That night, they happened to have a balloon artist there making balloon sculptures for the kids. Well, my boyfriend excused himself to go to the bathroom, and when he came back, he handed me a yellow balloon daisy (my favorite flower) and a tiny red balloon ladybug (my favorite animal.) I had to give him a kiss for this sweet, creative gesture!

Concert beach ball
At any really big concert event, bring a beach ball and a permanent marker. Write love notes to your girl telling her how much you love her and how much she means. Then launch the ball into the crowd. You can both watch as people in the crowd keep the ball for a minute reading the messages before sending it back into the crowd. It's a great way to profess your love.

French Fries and Dress Up
I love dressing up but I'm on a strict student budget and can't always afford expensive dinners out, so my boyfriend and I often dress up, me in a dress, him in a suit, then go to a fast food restaurant and each have a combo. Then we sometimes go 5 pin bowling (it's always cheaper) and finish up the night by going to the discount movie theatre. Or, you can always check your local paper for amateur theatre productions or elementary school band concerts or plays. It's important to play the part too; we often make up a story about our riches and go window-shopping downtown and talk about the things we are going to buy. You can't really do this if you're overly shy, you do get a lot of weird looks but it's totally worth it. They have been some of the most romantic nights I've ever had!

Jar Of Ideas
My fiancee and I live in a small town where there is little to do, and when we would go out we would argue what there is to do and what to do. Now we have a date jar where we put in all our ideas for places to go and things to do and each week we pull out one slip and do whatever is on that slip.

May I See Your Tickets Please?
My girlfriend called to invite me to a movie she was going to with some of her friends. I sadly informed her I couldn't make it. I then proceeded to buy the largest polar bear our mall had, and went to the theater a few minutes after the movie started. I asked one of the employees to pull her and her friends out of the theater to "check their tickets." When they went out one door, I went in the other and put the huge bear in her seat and sunk down in the seat next to it. Needless to say she was completely surprised and pleased.

Notice The Little Things
One night after I date I noticed that the fuel level in my girlfriend’s car was getting rather low. As she dropped me off at home, I asked her to call me the second she got home just so that I knew she got home safely. I also told her if she didn't call in 20 minutes I would come looking for her. It may only be a little thing, but all the small things count towards something.

Sneaking Out
When you go to the movie theatre, while the movie is playing, tell your sweetie that you have to go to the bathroom. Instead, sneak outside and leave something in or on his car. For example: a card, flowers, putting a tape you made to start when he turns on the car... anything. After the movie is over and you go back to your car, he will find the surprise so act dumb like you don't know a thing. He'll love it.

Ideas: Going Out - Setting The Mood

A Night Planned For Passion
I went to the store and bought blue roses (since he is a guy), Hershey's kisses (in the gold and silver wrapper), candles (scented) and bubble bath. Now, eating out is or can get boring, so I wanted to do something different. I made reservations at a restaurant where they have belly dancers. I also printed a poem for him off the computer. Now, after all of this I gave my friend a key to my apartment so she can set it up after I left. So, we went out to eat, he had no idea that I had a night filled with passion planned for him. When we got ready to leave the restaurant, I called my friend to run the bubble bath and light the candles. When he walked in, he had a poem on the coffee table with a rose on top of it (I teld him to stay there). I slipped on something sexy and got him. He walked into the room filled with rose pedals, Hershey kisses forming hearts with candles in the middle as well as the words, “Oh, I Love You, Q” on my black carpet.

A Romantic Night Out For Him
Have a car waiting to pick him up at work with the driver holding a sign with his name on it. The driver will then drive him to the hotel of your picking and give him the key and room number. Upon entering his room, he will find a suit and a note to get dressed and go back to the car. After he is dressed and leaves the room, you go into the room, unseen, and scatter rose petals all over the place and put champagne on ice. Have the candles and music ready to be turned on upon your return. Now it is time for you to get in your car and meet up with him at the restaurant he has been taken too. It is okay to be a little late because at this point he is wondering what is going on. You arrive in your sexy evening gown and a rose. Don't forget to put on some of his favorite perfume! After a romantic candle lit dinner, the two of you return to the car together and the driver takes you back to your hotel. Go up a little before him so you can turn on the music and light the candles. Also, run a hot bath with rose petals covering the surface of the water. When he arrives in the room romance him with all you have in you. He will never forget this night and may even plan a night to top yours.

A Special Invitation for Two
Buy an invitation and give it to one of the customers that is going into where your honey works. In the invitation put your address (to make it more interesting) and the rest of the normal stuff. When your honey comes to the door have a candlelight dinner ready. Play a variety of love songs. Then take them to a secluded spot and watch the river or sunset. End the evening watching your favorite movie and cuddle. During the evening remember to tell them how much they mean to you!!

Beary Romantic Invite
My boyfriend doesn't go to my school and about 3 or 4 weeks before my prom he had been telling me about all these romantic ideas guys at his school were doing to ask their dates to prom. I must say I was envious. It was just a given we were going together… or so I thought. Then I received a huge box at school. They called me to the office and I had to carry it to my next class. My teacher let me open it. Inside was a sweet note saying how beautiful I was going to look at prom and he was the luckiest guy to have me on his arm. BUT inside the box was a teddy bear, he had made at Build-a-Bear workshop. When I squeezed the bear's hand my boyfriend's voice came on and said my name and asked me to prom!!

Buried Treasure
I took my love to the beach for Valentine’s day. For a little spice, I took a small chest, wrote a poem on a heart shaped piece of paper, and placed it in the box. I also placed petals from a rose, candy hearts and a ring. I went to the beach before hand and buried the chest under the sand. When I took her to the beach later that night, I blindfolded her and took her to a spot where I had a blanket and some candles in the sand. After we ate, I told her to start digging with a plastic shovel and she found the chest. It was a very romantic night.

Concert Surprise
When I found out that my favorite band was coming to town and would be only two blocks away from my dorm, I was bummed. I know that sounds funny, but I am a college freshmen and TOTALLY BROKE! My boyfriend told me that he had tried his hardest to get me tickets, but had no luck. Then on the night of the concert (which was also the last day of finals) he showed up at my dorm room with red roses and the newest live CD from my favorite band. How sweet! But it didn't end there-- he told me that he wanted to take me for a walk in the park to look at the Christmas lights and then we would go ice-skating. As we walked through the park, he kept telling me that we should get close to the arena where the band was playing-- which was directly across the street from the park. When we got as close as we could without crossing the street, I was bummed to find that no sound could be heard at all. My boyfriend turned to me and said, "So do you want to go now?" "Yeah," I replied, I was getting cold and depressed and just wanted to go back home. "No," he corrected me, "Do you want to go to the concert?" I thought that I had died! I was so excited and surprised! It was absolutely the sweetest thing that anyone had ever done for me-- he was definitely well rewarded for that!

My boyfriend did this for me as his way to ask me to a dance. He got a large piece of construction paper, and cut out people in nice dresses dancing. Then he cut out the bodies of two people, a guy in a tux and a girl in a nice dress, then pastes our faces on it (that he cut from photos of each other). It was so cute! On the bottom it said, "If I could "cut" my way into any dance, I'd "paste" myself in your arms."

Dining Out Tips
Take your love out to a restaurant. Before you go, a couple hours ahead of time, Find the waiter/waitress that will be waiting on you. Give the waiter/waitress a love poem for your love and tell them when your half way done your meal, to deliver this to your love. Also have a plate made with a special saying on it ,like I love you, and have your loves meal served on that plate. So when your love gets done eating, she sees you message to her. (also don't forget to tip the waiter)

Finding the Christmas Spirit
Last year my girlfriend had a terrible Christmas where she sat around the tree with her girlfriends and complained about how terrible Christmas was. So her Christmas spirit is low. Since it is so low I am planning on trying to boost it. It's our first Christmas together and I'm hoping I can make it something she will never forget. Of course she has not told me what she wants so I am going to have to do something romantic. Since we will have to be with our families on the morning of Christmas, I was thinking either Christmas Eve or Christmas night. With the snow on the ground (providing there is some) you could make a snowwoman of her, and she could make a snowman of you. Explain why you picked what, for the features you add to them. For example, my girlfriend has a great smile so I would make a big deal out of that on the snowwoman. Work in a snowball fight and rolling around in the snow. Afterwards, find some way to get warmer, like hot chocolate and snuggling under a warm blanket together…

A Dance Under The Stars!
Make sure it is a very starry night and take your boyfriend to a beach or lake were there is sand or a pier. If you can use music do it! If not just enjoy the silence and dance and hold each other. It is very romantic!!!

A Date At The Circus
A date to remember would be to take your date out to dinner and talk over an enjoyable mea. Then go the circus, enjoy the show and sitting next to each other. On the ride back home, talk about all the funny and enjoyable parts of the show. Things like this may seem kiddy to us men, but seem to turn out quite enjoyable and not to mention, unforgettable.

A Day of Sailing
Being the owner of a sailboat I can tell you that asking a girl out for a day of sailing is always a sure bet. Sailing small boats is very easy and a few tips from an instructor will bring impressive results. It’s a great day on the water, your both learning new skills and it’s relatively inexpensive. How about free sailing? If you call local sailing clubs, you can usually arrange free crewing on regatta days. It’s a great way to meat new people and sailing skills are not always expected. Lastly, try composing a message in a bottle with your date and send it off together; you may be pleasantly reminded of the date by mail months or years later!

A Dinner Adventure
This will take some pre-planning, but is well worth the effort. Visit the best restaurant in your community and ask the manager for help with a special event. Pre-select your table, pre-order your food and drinks, request special music from the piano, and pay for everything IN ADVANCE. This way, all your attention can be on HER alone... Choose a table that is small (preferably rounded) so that your hands and knees will be near each other. Dessert must be sinfully decadent... request something you NEVER would have ordered. In advance, ask the manager to "rent" you a waiter or bellhop for 10 minutes during the meal. Have them "decorate" your car secretly while you are eating --as if you have just been married-- complete with cans tied to the fender and "CRAZY IN LOVE" written on the window. Surprise your lover by sending roses with an invitation to a dinner "adventure"... and prepare for the fireworks! She will be amazed at the time you spent planning her "pleasuring" and will likely want to reciprocate. Allow her!!!

A Glorious Night Out!
Our favorite night was when we borrowed my parent's porsche convertible and went to a gourmet wine and foods restaurant. We ordered great wine and apps., feeding each other. Afterwards we got in convertible and shared a cigar on the way to downtown. We were so carefree and in love. When we arrived downtown, the valet parked our sports car and we preceded to have a blast and a most romantic evening!

A Night Under The Stars
This only REALLY works with a truck or a car with a big sunroof ;). Find a nice field of lost country road. Load the back of the truck up with a few pillows and a nice thick blanket and stay out under the stars. It was one of the best nights of my life.

A Night at the Drive-In
If you really want a romantic night on a special occasion, and don't have a large amount of money to spend, try one of America's forgotten past-times: the drive-in movie theatre! There aren't too many left in the US, but they do exist, and they really are a special experience! If you live near one, it's a great "special" date idea that doesn't cost too much and is pretty out of the ordinary unless you already visit one. A good list of these theatres that are still open can be found at The Drive-In Theater.

A Romantic Combination
I just had to write to you about my experience after reading this site and combining three ideas with a little twist involved. I started the evening with a game. It consisted of little notes throughout my house that led her back to me to find out how the evening would start, but I did it with a twist. I read here that some individuals would leave a trail of Hershey’s Kisses…instead I left notes on where to find the main note that sent her back to me. Along with each note I laid a white rose. At the end, where the final note was, I laid three pink roses tipped with red. When she came to her final destination (me) she was all smiles. I asked her to chose a number from 1 - 10 (read that here too) she chose 6. I gave her six kisses all on different places of her body. After that I revealed 6 cards, with the word, “EATS” on one side and on the other, listing a restaurant. After choosing her card, we went to eat. I brought with me another set of cards for our trip there and back. They included, "At each red light kiss him/her 1 time", along with others such as, "at this very moment give him/her a passionate kiss.” Well, I received that card and commenced to pull over on the highway, stop, and lay one on her that she'd never forget. The cards also included, "Tell him/her something sensual about yourself”, “Tell him/her something you think is sexy about them", “Tell him/her something that you have yet to reveal about your past” and so on. Not all cards referred to sex or sensual stuff but questions that were not normally asked on a date regarding their past of likes and dislikes, just something to get to know them better. While at the restaurant, there was another set of cards to determine what the events of the evening would consist of after dinner. Examples of card choices were: a sensual massage next to the stone hearth fire, movies, watching a band, romantic evening walk under the stars, and so on. The whole evening went off without a hitch and she was impressed to say the least! Just wanted to let some of you out there know that even when reading the ideas here on the site, don't forget you can combine them to make an even better evening for you and your date, girlfriend, lover or wife...have fun creating romance!

A Romantic Day
Just this past weekend, the greatest person in my life did the 5 most romantic things ever done for me, all in a single day! First he gave me two roses, a white one to show how much he missed me and a red one for all of his love to me. We went out to eat and he announced loudly that he loved me so much and that he hoped everyone heard him! Before seeing a movie later that day, he played an arcade game. Not only did he get first place and enter his name, but won first place again and entered mine. Afterwards he won first again and entered both of our intials. He got us a hotel room and bought my favorite game, Scrabble! Last but not least, he gave me an online dedication!

A Romantic Hike!
I love to hike, and an old boyfriend and I would find the places that had big rocks to climb up onto, we would play hide and seek in the rocky terrain, and usually I would pack a lunch for us. One time, he surprised me, and brought champagne (the MUMMS kind $$) and we toasted to a sunset sitting on the rocks overlooking a beautiful valley.

Beginning The Courtship
The love of my life - who is now, my husband - suffered a lot before I showed him that I loved him too. Two weeks after we started dating, he asked me to be his girlfriend in the most beautiful way possible! He came to my house - it was Halloween and I was going to paint his face - and when he came in, he gave me a beautiful bouquet, asked where my bedroom was, and told me to wait in the living room. I waited, and when he called me, he told me to close my eyes, and once inside, he closed the door. When I opened my eyes, the room was all in darkness, except the word "AMO-TE" (I love you) written on the floor with candles! Then he asked me the old fashioned way if I wanted to be his girlfriend and, of course, I couldn't resist and said YES! It was best that I could ever dream!

Cell Phone Fun
If you have a cell phone, and a crush on someone, drive to their house when you know they're home, and call them on your cell. (Make sure you have them on the phone before you get there!) Start a casual conversation, then pull up to their driveway, go to the front door and ring the bell. Then say, "Oops! Better answer your door!" When they answer the door say, "Hi! Wanna go do something?" ("Wanna go bungee jumping?" worked for me! It got me my current boyfriend!)

Coded Love Letter
This letter took a LONG time to type, but I had a job where I was at a computer with a lot of down time. This was my favorite thing I can remember doing. I wrote a full page letter of romance and told her just how much I loved her. Ladies don't just throw those away. I called her on the phone and asked her to get the letter. I told her to fold the letter over from right to left where only the first row of letters were visible. Vertically down the page, it read: "Your eyes are beautiful." Then I had her do the same to the right side of the page. The right side from top to bottom read: "Check your trunk." I had a key to her car, so I had tied a few helium balloons in there and there was a message that started her off on a clue finding mission to a night of romance.

First Date Romance
The plan was to pick up this incredibly gorgeous, intelligent woman at her apartment for a lunch date. So, before I left to go pick her up at her apartment, I bought a bouquet of flowers to put in the truck seat (passenger) so when I opened the door for her to get in my truck, she would see them. To my surprise, plans changed and we just met at a restaurant for lunch. Well, I wasn't stuck yet!!! NO WAY!! Right after we ordered drinks in the restaurant, I told her I had to go to the bathroom...and actually that’s all I had planned on doing. While I was in the bathroom, there was a gentleman in there that was an employee for the restaurant. I politely asked him if he worked here and he said yes. I said...something to the effect, "Would you mind doing me a really big favor?" He said sure what is it. I told him about my date and the flowers that were still in my truck and I asked him if one of the servers could bring them to the table for her in about 10 minutes. He said, "Sure, that wouldn't be a problem." So, I snuck out to the parking lot, gave the gentleman the flowers from my truck, and snuck back in. About 10 minutes later, a server showed up to the table with the flowers in a glass full of water and told my date, "These flowers are for you, from him." My date just stared at them in awe and I couldn't help but just stare at her the whole time! It was great!! She was absolutely stunned and flattered.

First date helpers
Here's a little idea to set the mood on a first date. Before going to the girls house buy a single red rose, and keep it on the passenger seat. When you pick her up, leave the rose there and on your way out, open the door for her. (If she is a little clumsy say something like "there's some stuff on the seat", so she doesn't get a thorn in the rear) This is almost guaranteed to get you a hug if not a kiss, right when the date starts, setting the mood. =)

Giving Your Number
Well this my sound weird but I met the most wonderful guy this way. My bestfriend & I went to the mall & on our way out there were these really cute guys (they called us over to talk to them so I told her to take the car instead of walking so they thought that we dissed them) I happened to see the car they got out of so we went over to the car and I left a little note and my phone #, he ended up calling and said that was the coolest way he ever got a phone number, and I know he will always remember me (we talk for hours it's great).

It Doesn't Take Much To Be A Romantic!
I met this girl online and one day we finally met after chatting for 3 weeks. Luckily she only lived 2 hours away. Well one thing we did while we were together was go to the beach. A week later I bought a small bottle and filled it with sand from the beach and mailed it to her so she could remember the night forever!

Mail Call
For Valentine's Day, or any day for that matter, send your sweetie a package in the mail or through UPS. Who doesn't enjoy getting a package in the mail; that alone will make their day! Filling the box will be half the fun for you! You can fill it with a variety of different things such as: a love letter, C.D. compiled of your songs, a homemade picture frame, collage of pictures, a book you wrote and illustrated ... etc. Be creative, the ideas are endless! Or, you can fill the box with items for the day ahead. For example: a gift certificate for a restaurant, a new shirt to wear on the date, movie tickets, perfume, candles, lingerie/boxers, wine, glasses, etc.

Make His Head Spin
Some five years ago, on about our fourth date, my wife, instead of just giving me a sweet kiss and nicely stepping out of the car when I drove her home, grabbed me by the tie I was wearing after work, pulled me hard and kissed me hard for three seconds. Then she let go, dashed out of the car and into her house. It's been some years since that happened and my head is still spinning!!

$20 Date Night

This date works no matter what budget you are on, simply because there is thought behind it and fun. We are allotted $20 to plan a date and execute it, but the other does not know what is in store. This weekend it’s my turn to plan our date night. For our date I will get strawberries from a local fresh produce stand ($2), candy bars and soda from the dollar store ($5), a bottle of wine that was given to me from a trade show I was at, and movie tickets from the dollar theater ($2). We are now up to $9 for preparation. We will go to the movie with snacks (dollar store) then go to a local fast food place for burgers and fries from the $1 menu (total is now at $14). Then we’re off to the local donut shop for dessert. We’ll watch the donuts get made which will result in free donuts. Then we’ll go to the park for wine and strawberries (covered in chocolate from the dollar store) on a blanket. After that, we’ll go to the local adult store, where he gets to choose the sample flavor oils (remaining $6). We then go back home and I will secretly place the flavors on various parts of my body and he gets to find them without using his hands.

A Fun Day For Your Loved One
My girlfriend goes to college, so I decided to send her on a "treasure hunt" on our anniversary. I bought several small things(stuffed animals, etc.)and went to her school. I had a little notepad and wrote a note to her and placed it in her car, telling her to first check her car, then go to a certain destination(in this case the swings at a park that we'd frequented). I gave specific instructions on where to look, and there placed another gift and note to her. I continued this until I finally reached her house. I bought an outfit just for the occasion, cooked her dinner, and had a painting that i made for her hiding somewhere in the house. Later that night I fixed her a bath with lavender tea candles and lavender bath crystals. Total cost was around $50 and it was a night neither of us forgot.

A Message In A Bottle Surprise
I bought a decorative small colorful bottle with a cork. Wrote a nice love letter on a piece of paper with burnt corners. Rolled the paper, put it in the bottle, inserted the cork and threw it into a bath, full of water, essential oils and bubbles. My darling was surprised not only by the bath, prepared for him, but also for a letter.

A Night On The Beach
My boyfriend was scheduled to leave on a plane for a wedding and was going to be away for a week. It was the dawn of a new relationship for the both of us so we didn't want to leave each other's sight. However, the night before his plane was leaving, he bought a bottle of wine and took me for a sensual talk and stroll on the beach. Afterwards, we went back to the parking lot and continued our conversation until the day began to break, where we fell asleep holding one another in the backseat of his car. It was a very romantic, intimate and inexpensive date, enjoyed by both of us.

A Photographed Weekend
My boyfriend and I were living 10 hours away from each other during our summer break from college. We only got to see each other once a month due to our work schedules. One weekend when we got to see each other, we wanted to do activities we have never really done before using the most minimal amount of money as possible. We decided to purchase the cheapest disposable camera there was and take tons of pictures of our activities, which included hiking up mountains and trails, going to the lake, and driving around the town looking at houses and dreaming about our future home together. Our weekend was full of laughter, kisses, fun and we always will remember it due to our photos. The total cost was $10 for the camera and developing the film and gas, but the weekend photos and memories were priceless.

A Rare Night Together
My boyfriend and I don’t get a lot of time alone so when we finally got a night alone you wouldn’t believe how happy I was. We made dinner together and while I was fixing part of it he went in and set up the room with candles and music. It was the best night of my life!

A Romantic Date On A Budget
My Boyfriend and I decided to have our first "real" dinner date. He was a little short on cash but we made do. We traveled to a dine-in restaurant with an inexpensive cheap buffet. Tip: Don't over indulge yourself with food! Un-known to me, when we arrived home he had a tape of both slow and fast love songs that he had made himself. He took the comforter off of his bed and laid it on the floor. He took the one candle he owned and lit it and put it at the top end of the blanket. The first song was slow and his actions reflected the music. He slowly touched me and kissed me as if for the first time. The evening went on from there. Fortunately the tape had two sides full. It was the most romantic thing he had ever done for me.

A Walk in the Park
My boyfriend and I love to do this when we're broke (we're both in college so that's quite often). We drive to a county park located near our houses and walk along the hiking trails. It’s a great way to get to know each other better and to discover some really beautiful things like hidden waterfalls and amazing views. After walking the trails we generally head to an open field and play Frisbee or some other fun game. Best of all, the only cost is that of the gas needed to get there!

I lived my life searching for love. I kept finding glimmers of love along the path.
I thought I was going to live my life without that feeling again. I had about given up. When I met the person when I looked into his eyes. There was real magic. The love was alive in his eyes for me and I knew it. I live each moment thinking about that love. Holding onto it forever. Magic Love..

Chasing Butterflies
by wickedckg

I see you undress me
with your sexy eyes
from the locks of my auburn hair
down to my voluptuous thighs
I know that you want me
which is no surprise
whether or not you will get me
is still a compromise.
I contemplate allowing you
to take me as your prize
or leave you hanging by a string
in a tangle of my lies.
I switch my hips and toss my hair;
you shyly analyze
as confident as I appear to be
insecurities I internalize.
I wonder if your adoration
will ever be verbalized
or if you're terrified
of your confession being chastised.
I might tell you of my new found interest
before your fondness dies
before you walk away from me
my presence you'll memorize.
I watch you from behind my shades;
I look away as you realize
as you approach me my tummy flutters,
a feeling I recognize.
I let you silently take my hand
despite my inner cries
and we walk, and we talk;
our hearts chasing butterflies..

One First Kiss Goodbye

One First Kiss Goodbye
by RosesAreBlue

I happened upon your memory today,
I try to forget, but in my mind you stay.
Heartbreaking it was that we said goodbye,
It was for the best, I can't lie.

I know that you loved me, I even felt it too,
but I still couldn't bring myself to loving you.
This chapter of my life just isn't over yet,
still, you're a part of me that I can't forget.

You're still my solace on those lonely nights.
You still keep me warm, and hold me tight.
I hear your laughter, I can see your smile.
You're the only one that soothes me,
no matter the miles.

So, if it's true things happen in mysterious ways,
then perhaps I'll find you again someday.
I wanna hold you, and look into your eyes,
as we share our first kiss,
and our last kiss goodbye.

For now, I hope your "promise" is lying
next to you,
loving you completely, the way I couldn't do.
And I hope your heart's as filled as it could ever be,
but please, could you save a little spot for me?

Not Dead But Dying
by Bonnee(salma

Will my love die in despair
no, cause there's no love there
from your side I'm talking about
oh you spoke the words but no love came out.

You gotta show what you mean
and mean what you say
but you haven't done that
to this very day.

I'm gullible I'll admit
I believe most what's said to me
and oh I believed every word you spoke
cause those words set my heart free.

I was in pain when I met you
I thought you were my shining star
but I think you're just a mirage
a shadow from a far.

I keep reaching out to you
like I done so hard today
but you pretended you didn't see me
and just kept fading away.

I'm not a game nor a toy
I hurt I break I cry
I show you how deeply I love you
but for me--you don't even try.

When a heart lacks love and attention
and no affection is shown
it will surely fade from sight
as a heart much like..my own.

In Love With You
by bcassta

I fell in love with you, my darling
Sometime's I cannot explain why
Maybe it's your kind loving heart
That gave me wings to fly so high.

Maybe it's the way you kissed me
For the first time, that special day
Maybe it was your soothing voice
That calms my heart in every way.

Maybe it's the touch of your hand
That brings comfort into my heart
Maybe it's your lovely green eyes
That lite's up a room so ever dark.

Maybe it is because you saved me
And reminded me, how love feels
All I know is my darling, my love
It is you, who made my heart heal.

In My Dreams
by Brenda v Wyk

Last night in my dreams
My love come and visits me
He lie close to me in my arms
With my head on his chest
I hear his heart beat
Then he kissed me
Warmly and softly
With his sweet lips
It taste like honey
He looks deep into my eyes
I saw the passionate flames
of love in his eyes.
Every night he is so part of my dreams
When we are together again
I feel his warm love close to me
Every night he is kissing me
In my dreams, whispering in my ears
How much he loves me.
Every morning he fades away
Promise to be back tonight

Angel With One Wing

2009-02-12T00:03:00.001-08:00

Angel With One Wing
by RosesAreBlue

I know an angel with only one wing,
with a song in her heart she has yet to sing.
She wanders without aim between earth and sky,
searching for her soulmate to help her fly.

She asked the Lord one lonely night,
with only one wing, Lord,
will I ever take flight?

The Lord then answered in his mysterious way,
the wing you are missing will find you one day.
I created my angels with only one wing,
each one a queen in search of her king.
When you see him, then you'll know why,
he too is without aim between earth and sky.

Until that time, angel, don't lose sight.
Your missing wing is searching tonight.
And when he finds you, then you'll see,
that your wings joined together will set you free.

Everything You Do

Everything You Do
by bcassata

It’s everything you do I’ll never forget
It’s the way you kiss me so passionate
It’s the way you hold my hand so tight
And the I love you’s, I hear each night.

It’s the beauty I see in your angel eyes
Your hugs that comfort me when I cry
It’s how you always fulfill my dreams
And it’s the way you have rescued me.

It’s when you gave love a chance, and
Opened up your heart to true romance
It’s a love so ever wonderful we share
To your beauty a rose cannot compare.

It’s your love, that’s my hearts destiny
Your everything love is destined to be
Your simply everything in love I need
It’s only you, I’ll forever love tenderly.

So Broken Inside

So Broken Inside
by Bonnee(salma)

In all my heartaches I thought
another one couldn't out do the last
but I was so foolishly wrong
cause this new one the old one has passed.

You know someone warned me the other day
to be careful with my heart
I guess I should have listened cause if I had
it wouldn't be today..broken apart.

I've always had this way about me
believing what other people say
I wish I had believed that person
if I had I wouldn't be crying today.

I don't think you know how it feels
to have a broken heart
cause if you did you wouldn't have
just ripped mine apart.

If you honestly love me you
could think of words to say
but instead you said you couldn't
and broke my heart again today.

Like any other thing a heart
can only take so much pain
when it breaks down dreams,hopes & love
are washed away by the tear fed rain.

I just feel lost,lonely,numb
and cold like the far away stars
my heart don't resemble a heart any more
cause its all covered by scars.

This last time you hurt me
is the most hurtful of all
never again will I give my heart
nor ever again in love will I fall.

Every tear that runs down my face
is crying out your name
I feel about you like I always have
but there's something bout you that's just not the same.

Please don't play games with my heart
I don't know how much more it can take
but I do know that how you acted today
has caused another painful break.

I thought today was gonna be a good day
when I saw you online
but instead I end up alone
all alone and cryin'.

Yes,actions do speak louder than words
and they will tell me about you
whether you're just playing games with me
or if your love for me is true.

I Love You

I Love You
by BabyPoet

I love you for that certain smile
that cheers me up when I am blue.
I love you for your tenderness
that warms me through and through.

I love you for your kindness
and understanding heart;
one that always says,
"I love you very much."

I love you for your faith in me
and your sweet, loving ways.
I love you for the many things you do
so often without praise.

I love you for all these things
and a million others too,
but, most of all, for who I am
whenever I'm with you.
