Expressions - The Day my World Stopped

I cry so you can smile..
I hurt so you can heal..
I'm awake so you can sleep..
I burn so you can love..
I lied to make you free..
That I died.. so you can live!

Just for YOU!!!

When the skies turn gray and make you sad
I'll be the sun to wipe your frown...
When you find the moments that make you mad
I'll be the music that calms you down...
When you're helpless and feel completely lost
I'll be the road that makes your way...
When your pain exceeds life's mundane cost
I'll hold you every night and day...
When you want to cry and cannot talk
I'll stop in silence with no other clue...
When you find yourself and make your mark
I'll show you forever am just for you...

Expressions - Is this LOVE?

The day I woke up next to you and forgot the rest of the world ever existed.
The night I wished would never dawn and the kiss I wished would never end.
The times I watched you sleep in peace on my shoulder… and hated my clock for ticking so loudly.
The moment I stifled a sneeze, just so I don’t wake you up from your dreams - hoping you were dreaming about me.
The times you said “No” and I said “Ok” and the times I wanted to say “No” but still said “Ok”.
The times I cried and din’t feel weak for I know I showed you that I am ‘real’.
The times you cried and I felt like I drowned and just died in your tears.
The times your simple smile lit up my sky with a billion stars on a sunny day.
The times your touch melted my heart in the dead winter night.
The times you held me and I disappeared into nowhere.
The screaming silence inside my mind and the silent screams of my soul – both calling your name with a never ending passion.
I saw it, I heard it, I felt it and I lost it – all in you. 

If this is not what they call “Love” then "what is this"?

Expressions - IF I Died Today...

The times I disappointed my friends,
The times I left them when I shud've stayed,
The times I wasn't around for my best girl,
OR was there just to hurt her pain.
The times I said sorry but did not mean it...
Oh the times I meant Love but did not say it...
The days the nights the hours the moments...
I could have shown them all that I really cared.
The memories flash and hurt my eyes...
No... the memories flash and hurt my soul...
My dad's silence when I was angry...
My mom's tears when I was in pain...
The lover that cried for me..
And I did not know it!!

Why did I not see this while I was still there?
The painful journey calls me to nowhere...
And my heart yearns for little more longer.
I cannot undo what I have done...
But I will take just one more precious moment,
To look them in the eye...
and smile with my heart,
kiss with my soul...
and touch them...
Just one last time and say,
"I Love You. Don't cry anymore for I am now your guardian angel, Sheba"
