Shelly Price Poems

You be the wind within my hurricane,
I'll be the center of your raging storm.
You be the hills that make up my valley,
and I'll be the sun that keeps you warm.
...

What have I done this time,
to deserve your wrath?
What infraction have I violated,
causing this kink in our path?
...

There's a certain kind of magic,
that exists within your eyes.
It's there I can see what I mean to you…
It's there you loose your disguise.
...

I hate that you have the ability to make me cry...
why...I sigh...
for relief from the pain.
Do I win...lose...or gain?
...

Overwhelmed by my sudden show of emotions...
It's hard to know how to even begin to feel.
I'm trying to see through what I now know is fake...
so I can somehow get a grasp on something real.
...

I'm known as the defiant one...
My life is full, my life is fun.
I dance at dusk in the moonlight,
and I play at dawn in the sun.
...

Once upon a shining star,
I made a wish and it came true.
I wished for someone for me to love,
and then I was loving you.
...

There are two sides to every story,
in this book of life between me and you.
I have my page to share and you have yours,
each of us contributing a different view.
...

When tears never fall,
and birds never fly.
When winter never ends,
and children never cry.
...

Here I am now before you...
and on bended knee I pray.
Please won't you forgive me...
for living my life this way.
...
