The Sun
12-25-04
By James Juniel

Today the river ran like I never saw before
And as the water continued downstream.
The passionate found memories grew more and more.
Someone said a few weeks ago that your seasons changed
I could even see it in your clouds a little
But never knew your storm packed so much pain.
You said you hated this time of year,
And in all honesty, I can’t believe that
I just feel you miss your sunshine.
That kept your heart so warm and sincere.
Yes, there are going to be days where you don’t feel like going on.
Just remember to have faith in the lord.
The sun still shines after the storm,
And we must continue to move on.
Never forget your sun is in a better place.
Looking down on you, shining his rays upon you
Keeping you safe through the day and the night.
And when your journey ends in this great life,
He’ll be there again to hold you ever so tight.
It's hard for me to explain my feelings
towards you when you're in sight.
But when I'm alone
and nearly thousand miles away
what I want to tell you seems so right
Deep down inside I know that I am truly blessed,
God sent you into my life when I thought I had nothing left.
Do you remember?
I was reckless,
I was wild,
didn't care about no one,
not even myself.
You were the one who shed light
On my cold dark world,
and showed me new books on my shelf.
I know there has been times you just wanted to give up
and felt like you just couldn't win
But the lord himself has kept you by my side
through all the pain you felt within.
So, on this special day,
I want to say
THANK YOU
for never giving up
THANK YOU
for having a HEART AND LOVING ME SO MUCH
THANKS
for all the times hopefully more good than bad
I THANK YOU
and cherish YOU for giving me a new life I never had.
I thank the lord everyday that's the reason you are mine,
not just
today but every day,
YOU ARE MY VALENTINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                  HAPPY V-DAY
                                     LOVE ALWAYS

Reminisce! 3-15-2005
I often sit back and close my eyes and start to reminisce
Thinking of the love i have whom I so dearly miss.
Constantly visioning the glare in your eyes,
That stare so deeply into mine.
I loose control just dreaming about it
Like if our bodies were physically entwined.
I’m in ecstasy dreaming of running my hands
through your long silky hair.
Your body is soft, and your legs are so smooth,
And you smell as fresh as the ocean air.
Our hearts are pounding!
Breaths become deeper!
And the electricity just feels the room!
And as much I hate to wake, from my dream like state
Cause I know I’ll still be missing you.
