FOR THE FIRST TIME

Author: Joyce Hemsley

The first time ever I fell for you

'twas in the spring by the calm blue sea

for both of us ~ love was so new

and in our simple minds, it was true

love was a melody.

We met each other day after day

and clung together desperately,

and I was almost ill inside,

my passion could not be denied

love was a rhapsody.

Our love was of the deepest kind

you opened up your mind to me

and ran to me ~ O love insane!

excitement rushed through every vein

through the heart and soul of me.

This was the time I lost my head

your handsome face was all to me,

and then ~ one beautiful morn we wed

you rescued me from a lonely bed

and gave your life to me.

Falling In Love

Author: Joyce Hemsley

When you fall in love

It's not just a whim.

You spend every moment

Just thinking og him:

Where is he now?

Where was he then?

And he doesn't know

The unrest within!

When you fall in love

It's not just a whim.

For one glamorous night

When the music is dim,

You will utter the words

Which he will repeat

As he kneels down beside

Two prettiest of feet

Alone...

Alone to cry
Alone to laugh
Alone to smile
Alone to frown
Alone to live
Alone to die
Alone to wander
Alone to discover
Alone to learn
Alone to live
Alone in pain
Alone in hurt
Alone in joy
Alone in the morning
Alone in the night
Alone in the afternoon
Alone in this life
Alone in this world
Alone in boredom
Alone in knowledge
Alone in this state
Alone with people
Alone at work
Alone right now
Alone when I was born
And alone when I will die
Alone walking through life
Without any pride
How can you be satisfied
Living your life like you do
When you know there is some one out there
Who could really use a friend like you
No one will know how I live
No one will know who I am
No one will ever get to know me
Because I am destined to spend my life alone
I am always alone.
It’s no fun to be alone
To do everything on your own
To live with no recognition
To share my pride with no one
Wanting to have someone
To live my life with
But for now
I will continue alone
And all alone
