“Because I Love You”
(Commissioned by Alan for Stephanie)
Please give unto me that which is you, Stephanie
Give me your love one more time—I will honor it
Trust me with you and your love—I will protect it
Your heart, your emotions, your love will be safe, this time
I go to bed wanting you and wake up needing you
I go to bed saying “where is she which completes me”
I go to bed hoping for just a glimpse of you, when I awaken
I do this, because I love you, but also because I miss you, Stephanie

“My Heart Cries For You”
(Commissioned by Paul to Maygan)
Maygan, my tears are not seen, but they are there
They roll down the cheeks of my heart
My heart calls your name, but you don’t answer
It yearns for that touch, that only you can provide
The tears; they continue to flow
Their origination; you
Their destination; the pits of my depth
Can not you release me from this judgment, for just a time

Some Times
(Commissioned by Samuel for Dorothy)
You have given me, Dorothy, the pain of a thousand hurts—sometimes
You have also given me the happiness of a thousand joys—sometimes
You have enriched my life with your pure existence, lovingly—sometimes
You have given me the knowledge that life can be good again—sometimes
Please know, Dorothy, you are the first thought that engulfs my life—daily
Know that my thoughts of you permeate my life and brings a smile to my face—daily
Know that my last thought is of you and what you have brought to my life—daily
Know that I look for someway to get you back—every single day There are 15 more lines to this poem

“When Will”
(Commissioned by Hunter for Alicia)
Alicia, when will I stop comparing every woman to you
When will I stop looking into their soul, hoping to find you
When will I stop wanting them, to be you
When will my heart really be content
Must my heart continue to want and need you, Alicia
Must my very soul always hunger for you
Must my love for you, haunt me forever
Must my love be a ghost, living only in my memories There are 15 more lines to this poem
