One Day Later

By: Jacques B.

You now got me staring at this book but my minds on you.
Before we hung up all I wanted to hear is a " love you too".
You being my love forever is the feeling I'm getting.
That's why I want you to be the other half of my wedding.
Putting our relationship in prayers means I want this to be.
Let's ignore all these haters talk about Jacques & Naomi.
Boo this is the real me I just want you to see.
Imma show you how I lived when I once lived in Haiti.
If you confused I'll lead you all the way from A to Z.
We all make mistakes and ill do whatever it takes like singing you the ABC.
You're like the blood God allows to make my heart beat.
I love you and I'll run for you even if I had no feet.
You're always on my side. Thats I why I want you to be my wife.
I didn't commit a crime , but I am sentenced to love you for life.

I Love You

By: Angel Baby

I never really knew you
You were just another friend
But when I got to know you,
I let my heart unbend.
I couldn't help past memories
that would only make me cry
I had to forget my first love
and give love another try
So I've fallen in love with you
and I'll never let you go
I love you more than anyone
I just had to let you know
And if you ever wonder why
I don't know what I'll say
But I'll never stop loving you
each and every day
My feelings for you will never change
Just know my feelings are true
Just remember one thing
I Love You!

Sonnet 18

 Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

By: William Shakespear

Japanese Proverb

When you're thirsty
it's too late to think about digging a well.

あなたがのどが渇いている時、井戸を掘ることを考えるのには遅すぎます。
