Patience by Arielle
I follow my heart
It’s all I can do
Time will tell
If our love is true
“Patience” you say
Patient I will be
Shutting out
The voices surrounding me

Always be true to me
Tell me what’s on your mind
Ask for my opinion
be honest even if not kind
Color me with happiness
From purple to yellow to blue
Fill my world with excitement
And fill it full of you
Take me out to dinners
And tell me I’m your world
I want to know you love me
And that I am your perfect girl
Color my happiness
With respect and honor and truth
Show me that your care for me
Will hold past our time of youth
Always stand beside me
Never in front or behind
I want to stand equal with you
And forever be in your mind
Be able to protect me
But don’t guard my every move
I need to know you’re there
But this you don’t have to prove
Treat me like an angel
But please don’t clip my wings
Because even if I take flight
I will never take off my ring
So color me with happiness
Which shouldn’t be hard to do
Because you are the only color in my world
I’d be lost in darkness without you
Color my Happiness

When I think of you
I can’t help but wonder
Will our love blossom
Or will it sunder
When I think of you
I see my life unfold
Together we will live
With you, I feel bold
When I think of you
I become afraid
I fear you’ll reject me
When this infatuation’s played
When I think of you
I think of love
You are my angel
Sent from above
When I think of you
I fear I’ll come undone
Never have I felt
This way about anyone
When I think of you
I think of Aphrodite
But not even that goddess
could match your beauty
When I think of you
I feel like I can fly
If I ever lost your love
I feel like I would die

I love you,
I can’t think of a better way,
To spend my life,
To be with you everyday.
I think about you every minute,
I hope you think about me,
There is no other place,
I would rather be.
Baby you make life simple,
You make it easy,
I love you babe,
Don’t ever leave me.
I dont want to be alone,
I couldnt survive without you,
I think I’d die out on my own,
I don’t know what I’d do.

My heart was broken
Many times before
But I never stoped
So it broke some more
Everytime I try to love
My heart was up high
But it always break somehow
Whenever somebody says goobye
But then that faithful day came
The day you came to my life
I knew you were the perfect one
I will marry and be my wife
Now that were together
We will never be apart
Cause you picked up the pieces
Of my broken heart
The faithful day I will never forget
Is the day that still stays true
A day is very special to me
The day I found you!

A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.
A simple friend doesn’t know your parents’ first names.
A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book
A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party.
A real friend comes early to help you cook and clean
A simple friend hates it when you call after he has gone to bed.
A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.
A simple friend seeks to talk with you about their problems.
A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.
A simple friend wonders about your romantic history.
A real friend could blackmail you with it.
A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.
A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself.
A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.
A real friend knows that it’s not a friendship until after u’ve had a fight.
A simple friend expects you to always be there for them.
A real friend expects to always be there for you!

Sometimes it’s hard to see,
what’s right in front of me.
Sometimes i don’t appreciate,
the time and effort you make.
Sometimes i can’t understand,
that he isn’t the right man.
But for those “sometimes” I’m glad i have you,
to tell me when it’s time to realize him and me are through.
I know that my faults have taken a toll on you,
and i want to say thankyou.
Thankyou for sticking it through,
and realizing that I’m here for you too.
We hit it off from the start,
and I can tell we will never part.
best friends from the beginning,
I’m here for any inning.
Rain or shine,
I’ll be on time.
Like best friends should,
I’ll be here for good.

The queen of hearts between the Jack and the King
Is wondering if its better to be in a fling
Than to be in love with somebody that’s new
Who brings feelings to her like so very few.
The queen is playing dirty, with her heart in a knot
And she can’t make a decision because it’s just too hot
The consequences are harsh, but she knows its right
To leave the Jack for the King and start a big fight.
She’s eyeing and spying, waiting for a good time
To tell the Jack about the King that is dying to shine
And take his spot in the deck as the one true lover
Who the Queen needs to feel somebody loves her.
I’m waiting around, as the joker of the deck
Whom nobody listens to, but what the heck
My heart is in the place that is truly right
And I’m ready to take on any little fight.
When the deed is done, I’ll be sleeping fine
Because I’ve known what is right all the time.
To play chess with two hearts and win
Is as wrong as a fish with no fins.

She looks like she stole the stars right from the skies-
And sewed them into the pupils of her gorgeous eyes,
She blinks with insecurity but with amazement too,
This pretty little girl just doesn’t have even a clue.
Her pretty little voice flutters the inside of my heart,
It makes me want to shield her from everything,
And beat anyone up who comes across her path,
So anyone reading this, beware of dog, is the sign.
She lifts up the souls to everyone she talks too,
Because she has the magical power, that I want,
But I can’t have because she is a one of a kind,
With a special heart that no one else can ever have.
She lives in a very evil town in the state of Nebraska,
Where the people just don’t give a hoot about anything,
They just stop and stare, but they don’t go anywhere,
Followers is what I’d like to call them, who knows.
She lives in an evil little house, where snakey lives,
She too, doesn’t give a smudge about life itself,
Thank god she had a daughter, because I’d fail;
I’d fail majorly in life without this special person.
Ever since I’ve known her, she has always amazed me,
She keeps my imagination running and rolling along,
She makes sure my chin is up and looking forward,
Strong as steel even though we have our moments.
If I lived there with her, no one would ever hurt her,
Because I’d stomp on the faces who dared to even try,
And bet me on anything, because that is no lie,
She is like my daughter, and I love her so dang much.
I’d give her my last bite of food, and last drink to drink,
I’d give her my shoes if she didn’t have any to wear,
I’d give her my pen, if she came to school unprepared,
And most of all, I’d give her my last breath.

Because existence can become severe
in one day,
just sense me and I’ll be there.
In the minds eye,
I’m not so far away.
If you hold out your hand,
in the whispers,
I’ll become the zephyr.
and besiege you.
If your eye’s upon the stars,
in the crystalline darkness,
I’ll become the moon.
And the light shall guide you.
If you rest upon the ground,
in the warmth,
I’ll become the grass.
And embrace you.
If you turn outside,
in the wetness,
I’ll become the rain.
An upon your forehead, kiss you.
If you free the air,
in the light of day,
I’ll become the sun.
And smile for you.
Between the miles-
if you need me.
If you need a friend.
Let me be the friend, I want to be
