ladakh: Dream called heaven

First Time I Have Ever Loved

This is the first time I have ever loved;
Yours, the first face I can not forget.
I think you are afraid, perhaps, and moved
To wonder whether you should do this yet.
I also am afraid, and yet I know
That wonder is a thing that needs a yes;
Should you step back and let this moment go,
Both you and I will have to live with less.
Please trust my love, as I must trust in yours.
It's strong as steel, as delicate as lace,
Immovable as battered granite shores:
I feel its power and unremitting grace.
So come, my love, and try this love with me;
Let your love speak, and then you will agree.

..........WHAT DID YOU EXPECT??????

You came into my life
As quickly as you left.

You grabbed a cutting knife

And sliced right through my heart.

You didn't mean to hurt

But what did you expect?

My heart now cut in two

It feels beyond repair.

Injury done by you

God, life just isn't fair.

You didn't mean to hurt

But what did you expect?

So here we are, just friends.

But I long to be more.

Desire with no end

Throbbing from my core.

You didn't mean to hurt

But what did you expect?

......what do they know

  I face the world with a smile, no one knows what is hid inside.
 They see only happiness, they cant see the tears I've cried.
 When I am alone I hurt, because here I do it well.
 In front of all the watchful eyes my heaven turns to hell.
 The judge and jury awaits me, everyone has a say.
 In a life that hangs suspended for yet another day.
 Who are they to judge if what I have done is right or wrong?
 In the end I gave her up, but inside still sing her song.
 I don't know how to find the strength I thought I had.
 If only I could play tough it wouldn't be so bad.
 They say that life goes on and someday I'll smile again.
 But, how do they know my pain without being where I've been?
 I've traveled so far from home, and can't find my way back.
 Somewhere along the way I must have jumped the track.
 I saw her just today and her smile is still the same.
 She looked at me so sweetly, but never spoke my name.
 I wonder if she remembers me, It hasn't been that long.
 She may have forgotten me, but I still sing her song.
