I'm Ready.
I've decided to give this "love" thing
one more try.
I'm Ready.
I want to put you in my life,
My heart in your hands,
And my soul in your heart.
I want to love you,
I want to miss you when you're gone,
And forgive you when you've done wrong,
I want THAT kinda love,
you know the one poets speaks of.
I'm Ready.
I want to count the seconds
Until I see you again,
And when we see each other
Start all over again,
Because then the seconds become
Light years of love that go on
Forever.
And I know that now
I'm Ready.
I decided to let you in,
Be your lover,
But also your friend,
Keep all your secrets,
And console you when you hurt.
I want to be the one
You thought you'd never have,
The one who makes you question
How you got this lucky,
I want you to feel my love
On the daily,
And when I'm not around
It makes you crazy.
I decided to flip all the pain,
And turn it inside out,
Until the happiness comes about,
Then give it to you each day.
I'm Ready.

Poetry: I'm ready
I'm ready for adventure,
At the dawn of this new day,
For an unexpected thrill,
That life might throw my way.
I'm ready for
I'm Ready
I'm grinning to myself, not feeling any pain,
Yes, I know I'm silly, but it's happening again
And I'm just going
I'm ready
to move on
it's been almost two years
and I still see your ghost
in my dreams but
I'm willing to let go -
do I really
Now's the time
Time to shine
Time to get up and going
Now's the time
Time to find
The way to get ready and going
Cause I'm ready
When dark waters surround me and the light of life is out of reach,
You come and lift me to the surface and breathe sweet
