I Know '09


Softer than a rose petal
and warmer than the sunshine that makes it grow..
These are the thoughts that come to mind
whenever I see you..
and girl that's how I know../

I know
that even though you don't know my name
that you've been what I've been trying so hard to find
just the same..
I know..
that I have nothing to lose and everything to gain..
and one day I'm going to make you mine../

Cooler than a tropical breeze
that blows across Carribean seas..
watching you smile brings these visions
of you to me....
and re-inforces the reasons I've come to want you so..
and maybe that's why...
I know../

I know-
I'm going to do whatever I have to do...
(Although I just met you girl)
to get next to you..
I know
that I'm going to say whatever I have to say...
and hope and pray you see things my way../

I know
even though you don't know my name
you're what my heart has needed to find..
I know
even though you don't know it yet
one day you're going to be mine..
I know,
baby I know...
it's just the swagger in me..

    The poem was great to Keith.

    love to live; live to love!
