Richard Goolsby Poems

For i woke this morning,
With a smile upon my face,
Of dreams of you beside me,
For none could ever take your place.
...

Just a simple look, From your eyes so true, The softness in you voice, Helps keep me from feelin blue.

Tho I may never know, The true person that you are, It won't ever stop me, From going just that far.
...

I don't ever want to see A tear in your eyes Never want you to carry a burden That makes you sigh

Never want you to feel A pain deep in your heart That kills u inside as it tears you apart
...

Sometimes I wonder,
What's the point of life,
Why go through the struggles,
And dealing with the strife.
...

In a distant memory, I can still see your face, As you walk away, Into another's embrace.
As if what we had was never real, It was only just a dream, Of hopes filled with emptiness, or now so it would seem.
Looking back to where we were, And what never shall be again, It truly breaks my heart, To think what might of been.
For what seemed a fairy-tale, Was only in my mind, As you walked away, And left me far behind!
...

You have my heart,
This is plain to see,
I've opened it to you,
Its there for you to read.
...

Way up in the clouds,
Soaring at the speed of sound,
Feeling like a rocket,
High above the ground.
...

I close my eyes to see,
A glimpse of your beautiful smile,
Its for that moment your not here,
My thoughts drift away for a while.
...

I don't understand,
How you got in my mind,
How you became my every thought,
How I can't just drop you behind.
...

You have really touched my heart,
In ways and I don't know why,
I couldn't even begin to explain,
But I'll give it a try.
...
