when i think of you

When I think of you, I think only of how lucky I am to have you in my life. So many times our paths had come so close, yet never crossed. When they finally did, I knew I belonged in your arms. The way you smile when I make you laugh
The tender way you hold me near. The look in your eyes when you tell me you miss me. All fill me with wonder. I thank heaven every day for the gift of you and your friendship and I hope and dream of our future together. I need you more than I thought possible. I belong with you and you with me we’ll be together for eternity.

Angel in disguise

I know theres much more to you,
than what you think i see.
i know because you seem,
exactly just like me.
it feels like your heart,
will never fully mend.
you don’t like being alone,
and you hate losing a friend.
only a few good people,
know how to make you smile.
and having them in your life,
makes it all seem worthwhile.

here’s a little inspiration,
from a person kind of like you.
the following information,
is the honest truth:

i hope your rainy nights,
turn into sunny days.
and i hope you know i’m always here,
to make you feel okay.
i know sometimes you feel,
like your falling from the sky.
just remember people look up to you,
so flap your wings and fly.
i know this all because,
we have similar lives.
and in case you din’t know this yet,
you’re an angel in disguise.

Mi vida, mi alma …

You tell me about your worries,
You tell me about your fears
I sorrow those days
That I cant calm your tears.

I think about the future,
I think about the past.
I think about those days
that we wish could always last.

Those other days that your in pain.
That I know I cant release.
It’s all locked up inside your heart, and you’ve thrown away the keys.

I wish I could take away
All your suffering and sorrow.
I wish I could say for sure
That we’re all promised another tomorrow.

The fact of the matter is,
That we don’t know what life brings us.
So just know I’m always here for you
No matter what comes at us.

This world goes through so much,
Like criminals and mass destruction.
But, I’ll be there to hold your hand
When the light goes out in each direction.

Just being there,
Through thick and thin,
All just to say, you are my friend.

~ Camila Lima

You are everything to me

“… Just when I think I’ve lost my way
Something illuminates the dark
There you are leading the way
Love shining from your heart

Many friends have crossed my path
And I thank God for them all
But I got an extra special blessing
When your friendship answered my call

You stayed by my side every step
Even when others fled
I know that because you’re here
I can face whatever’s ahead

Your smile and laugh urge me on
And encourage me to be strong
Your loving support helps me stand
When the road is rough and long

So much that I can thank God for:
My family and health
But when He blessed me with you
He gave me more than wealth

Mortal words could never explain
What you have come to be
You are my life, my world, my heart
You are EVERYTHING to me …”

If I Were…

If I were a memory I’d hold you there forever
Reminding you of the good times we shared together

If I were a smile on your face I would stay
Never to let sadness chase me too far away

If I were a teardrop I’d roll gently down from your eyes
Not to burn much but to mend your sweet cries

If I were a hand I’d want you to hold me in your own
Carry me through life .. even when I’m grown

If I were feet I would stay inline with you
So I could be with you in all that you do

If I were a shadow I would always follow
We’d face things together in all the tomorrows

If I were pain I’d stay far away from the start
To make sure you never felt me or I never broke your heart

If I were a song I’d be a sweet sound to your ears
To keep up your hopes and carry you through the years

If I were strength I’d give you my all
I’d hold you high and never let your fall

If I were your heart I’d be steady and true
I’d be there in every beat; staying strong for you

If I were the sun I’d shine down upon your face
Illuminate your smile and radiate through your grace

If I were a star I’d sparkle like your eyes
I would look upon your life and never stop my shine

I don’t know how good at those things I could be
I’m not any of them but this I want you to see

If I were a friend I couldn’t let you down
I’d never let you fall or walk away from me with a frown

If I were a friend I would hold your hand
I would be with you always, I hope you understand

If I were a friend I would give you my all
And though it’s not much, I’ll be there when you call

If I were a friend I’d be in every memory too
When you laughed, when you cried, I’d be with you

I CAN be these things, it’s not impossible to be a friend
I CAN be your best and I’ll be here till the end

If I were forever, you would be too
Together forever – me and you…
