A Father and a Dad Are Not the Same A Marriage Celebrates a New Beginning A Teenage Girl's First Crush A Wedding Is the Entrance to a Marriage A Working Mother's Always at the Mercy All I Ever Wanted Was to Love You Although a Daughter, I Write This as a Mother Although Consumed by Fury, You Still Loved Us Aunts and Uncles Are like Sunlit Days Be with Us in the Circle of Our Love Before You, I Was Just Hanging Out Behold the Mother with Her Newborn Child Childhood Sweethearts Share an Innocence Chris and I Went Out Awhile Back Dan Phillips Lived a Golden Life Dear Mother, Please Don't Take Away My Baby Death for One Ought Not Mean Death for Two Death Is Nothing but a Moment's Rest Despite the Doubts and Troubles That You've Gone Through Ed Was a Black and White Paint Quarter Horse Eight Days the Light Continued on Its Own Eighty-Six Must Be Our Secret Number Elisha and Timmy Have Been Five Years Together Engagements Are by Nature Temporary Even So, We Did What We Believed In Even Though We Fight a Lot, I Love You Ever Be the Lover That You Long for Every Moment Sings with Fascination Families Are Created Out of Love First Communion Is a Mystery For Me, Two Mothers Aren't One Too Many From the Distance of Our Separation Gifts Given Freely, Out of Joy and Love Grant Us All the Peace of Understanding Happiness Is Not a Tended Rose Happy Sixteenth Anniversary Her Life Was Not as Glorious as Some Here Among the Lovers I Wait Willing Here Are All Your Children in One Place Hope Is a Breeze Across an Open Field How Can I Fall in Love with Only Words How Can I Make This Time of Telling Special How Can I Tell You What I Feel for You How Little in Me Is Not Touched by You How Much Can One Person Love Another How Necessary Is It to Remind How Often when Two People Fall in Love How Simple to Be Happy Here in Heaven I Am of the Desert, You of Cultivation I Am the Happiest I've Ever Been I Call You "Ma," Though You Are Not My Mother I Cannot Help but Be What I Would Not I Cannot Tell You How Much I Have Loved You I Cannot Think You're Not Alive Somewhere I Didn't Get a Chance to Say Goodbye I Do Not See You Often with My Eyes I Do Not Want This Poem to Go Too Deep I End My Letters, "Thoughts, Prayers, and Heart" I Feel as Though a Dam Within Me's Burst I Guess You Just Don't Know How Much It Hurts I Know How Difficult I've Made Your Life I Know I Haven't Been an Easy Child I Know I Must Have Hurt You, Caused You Pain I Know Well I Have No Right to Love You I Look at You and Think: I Cannot Live I Love You and I Need You, Even Though I Love You and I Never Want to Hurt You I Love You, but I'm Not in Love with You I Love You Just as Though You Were My Own I Love Your Cool Green Eyes and Light Brown Hair I Loved You, but I Could Not Wait Forever I Miss You, but I Cannot Make You Miss Me I Miss You on Our Anniversary I Miss You Though I Have You Here Beside Me I Miss You, Though I'm Not Quite Sure I Love You I Miss Your Laughter, Fun, and Gentleness I Need to Say Goodbye Although You're with Me I Never Dreamed that Such a Man Existed I Never Thought I Ever Would Get Married I Never Thought I'd Fall in Love with You I Pray for You and Wish I Could Do More I Sometimes Think that I Could Be Alone I Thought I Knew a Thing or Two of Beauty I Wait upon the Love That Waits for Me I Want to Make It to My Graduation I Want to Say How Proud I Am of You I Want to Tell You Something You Should Know I Wish You Could Have Custody of Me I Would Be Proud of You, Could I Attend I'm Far Too Shy to Tell You that I Love You I'm Not Your Parent, nor Are You My Slave I'm Sorry for the Way I Say I Love You I've Dreamed of Loving You for Many Years If Life Could Be a Court and We Be Tried In Eighth Grade My Best Friend Passed Away In-Laws Aren't Always Good as You Are It Sometimes Seems So Foolish to Persist It Was Pure Chance You Got the Name Irene It's Been So Good to Have You as a Friend Jewels Are Cut from More than Precious Stone Joy Is Not a Treasure You Can Lose Junior High School Is a Time of Yearning Just as a Wave Is Lifted by the Shore Just Want You to Know How Proud We Are of You Just Wanted You to Know: I Love You Last June My Parents Got Divorced Last Night, Today, Tonight I've Thought of You Later On, in the Languor of the Married Let Me Love You Well, if Not Too Long Let Me Steal You from the One You Love Little Do You Know How Much You Love Me Love Comes to Those Who Love Love Has Obstacles Enough, They Say Love Redeems the Passions of the Moment Love's Not Easy on the Internet Loving You Is Something That Comes Easy Make the Most of Every Christmas Morning Marriage, as a Choice, Requires Choices May This Christmas Be the First of Many May You Feel Such Love as Lights the Morning May You Find This Christmas Inner Peace May You Walk Among the Stars of Morning Maybe Underneath the Bed Is Sadness Maybe We Need Another Miracle Meaning Has No Meaning Without Love Meaning Is a Measure of Repose Merry Christmas to the One I Love Midnight Miracles Make Quiet Mornings Mind Is Not the Medium for Joy Miracles Have a Way of Making News Mom Lived Her Life for Love of Friends and Family More than Ever Now I Want You with Me Mostly, I Would Like to Be Remembered Movement Comes Most Often Without Motion My Husband Cheats. I Look the Other Way My Love for You Is Hungry as the Sea My Love for You Is like the Surging Sea My Love for You Is Simple, Deep, and Strong My Mother Was a Mother as a Child My Pride Is like a Castle in the Sand Mysteries Are Often Most Mundane Myths Are Hopes Refracted Through Our Pain No Matter What Our Troubles, I Still Love You Not a Day Goes By that I Don't Think of You Nothing Is More Mystical than Marriage On the Brink of Married Life You Wait with Wonder  On Your Wedding Day, as You Trade Vows Our Love Is Torn by Miles, Not by Choice Perhaps We'll Never Understand Eachother Please Don't Mind if I Make Love to You Recently You Were Just Two Feet High Saying What I'm Now About to Say Secretaries Seek Some Signs of Pleasure Sing of Secretaries! Office Angels Sing in Celebration of Your Race Sing Me a Love Song for My Irish Boy Sister Margaret Sisters Rarely Speak of Their Affection Some People Seem Just Made for Early Marriage Some Would Sacrifice Their Dearest Sorrows Sometimes a Sacrifice or Two Comes Easy St. Patrick's Day Commemorates the Turning Take It as a Given that I Love You The Greatest Gifts Are Those That Cost Us Least The Happiness I Feel at Your Achievements The Sunlight Is as Passionate as Flowers The Things You Taught Me I Will Always Know The Time for Love Is Now Fast Disappearing There Are Many, Many Ways in Which I Love You There Are Some Crimes That Cannot Be Forgiven There Are Some Pleasures I Would Try with You There Are Times the Sea Is Sullen Rage There Are Times When Happiness Descends There Is a Joy That Banishes All Reason There Is a Point to Living Vertically There Is a Time when Freedom Must Be Bound There Is But Little Hope for Slaves of Fortune There Is No Being at the Heart of Being There Is No Field as Fertile as Your Love There Is No Love Enough for Me to Give You There Is No Moment Large Enough to Hold There Is No Threnody for Utter Darkness There Was a Time Not Long Ago When I This First Year of Marriage Has Been the Best This Is the First Time I Have Ever Loved This Is the Third Time We Have Tried This Love This Isn't Love, Not Quite, Though We Will See This Valentine's I Wish that You Were with Me This Will Not Work if You Don't Want to Try Though I Broke My Promise and Your Trust Though New at Fatherhood To Be a Child at a Parent's Wedding To My Grandchild, with Overwhelming Love To Say Goodbye's Impossible Forever To the Founding Fathers Today's a Day of Love Not Just for Us Today's the Day I Ought to Say I Love You Twenty-Two Years Later They Were Dead Vest in Me Your Life, as I in You Vested in Your Heart Is All My Hope Vestibules Are All One Gets to See We Met Four Years Ago While Hunting Deer We Started Out as Friends and Now It's Love We're Never Completely in One Place We've Been Dating Now More than a Year What I Want to Ask of You Is This What Is the Sign of Love That Tells Me When What Is There In the Darkness When at the Same Time One Feels Joy and Sorrow When I Was Young, I Thought that I Would Be When We Broke Up, You Said You'd Always Love Me Why Am I the Mirror of Your Heart Why Is It that a Child Makes Life Worthwhile Why Should We Care that We Must Lose the Past? You Are Now Poised to Kill, Perhaps to Die You Are to Me a Very Special Sun You Don't Love Me, But Ah! Do I Love You! You Left Me, but You Cannot Leave My Heart You Never Thought that It Would End This Way You Told Me in a Dream You Always Loved Me You Took Us In and Loved Us as Your Own You Used to Make Me Swear Never to Leave You You're like Music Playing in My Head You're the Person That I Most Admire You've Been Everything to Me You've Been with Me Two Sweet and Awesome Years Your Heart Is Just as Lovely as Your Face Your Love Is like the Arizona Sun Your Love Must Be an Ocean and a Stream Your Say Does Not Derive from What You Say Please direct all email correspondence to the webmaster at poemsforfree.com.
