[align=center]The Touch of Love by Em
Could he ever really know
How much I love him
Could he ever really know
How I long to feel
his hand in mine,
if only for a moment
Could he ever really know
My heart
And feel its breathlessness
Remenbering
Sprouting wings
and flying to heaven
Could he ever really know
What it is to see his face
And trace the feelings
Of his smile
And tenderness
Within my soul
Could he ever really know
The silent lauguage
I whisper
Like a fool, hoping
He will heard me
But somehow
Knowing he does
In the recesses of my heart
It was written
Many moons ago
It was written
by a whisper
and the passion
Of my soul
That he would stand
before me
and touch me
with his voice
and change my life
forever
Does he ever really know?

[align=center]The Singing Master by Em
I wrote this after the sanjose concert...
There was a silence like
I had never heard before,
although there were thousands,
I never heard a sound,
except for a soft whisper ,
as though a life were to begin.
I sat on the edge of my seat
And reached to touch
the space around me,
for I could feel something wonderful
stirring in the shadows
of the great stage.
Behind a misty veil
came forth,
The reason for life
The reason for everything
The singing messiah
And my love,
Who has taken my hand
When I was unsure.
He was so handsome,
There in that light
That kept changing
in vibrant hues,
to match the passion
dancing forth from his smile.
The breathless multitudes
Came to their feet,
With tears in their eyes
and outstretched
arms, hoping as I,
this ecstasy could last forever.
He just stood there
And grinned
And my life began again
and the moment of surrender,
entered my soul
taking an image of his love,
so that on the darkest of night,
even though the moon was hidden,
I could see his face and remember,
How he sung to me,
On that night of love..
That night of dreams.

[align=center]Perhaps by Em
Perhaps I was a dolphin, perhaps..
I could have been a nightingale
spellbound by the moonlight, perhaps..
Perhaps Iwas a hummingbird,
excited in it’s quest for fragrance, perhaps..
Perhaps I was a soft white cloud
drifting through a rainbow, or the
voice of a sudden wind that waves
the meadow grass, perhaps..
And yes, I could have been a dewdrop,
sparkling on a petal throne, perhaps..
Maybe I was just holding hands with you,
not speaking,the way that lovers do, perhaps..
But I like to think we were two dolphins,
enraptured by a light, and the unforgettable
nectar of the Beloved’s flute,
Perhaps we were,
I think so !

[align=center]The Grin of Love by Em
When I look at you
It is so grand,I look away
Afraid my heart will stop,
Afraid you'll go away
And I will have to return
to my nothingness
I push aside a misty veil
and there you are again
That grin,
Oh, that grin,
Speaking to me,
Of secrets
Of love and passion
We shared so long ago
There in that glow
where no one could see our kisses,
and we were alone...
of dreams, you say,
only dreams?
I brush away a tear
It seemed like only yesterday
when the moon was new
That I felt your face
And knew
that you were real

[align=center]THE GIFT by Em
May you always feel the wonder of life,
each day of the year...
May you be thankful for the many
gifts laid before you,
even marveling at a blade of grass,
May you hear the angels singing
that surroundes you,
even though your heart is breaking..
May the soft breath of God
whisper of true love in your heart
and may you harken to hear it,
May the passion of Andrea's
voice heal you
and guide you to the fountain of youth,
your God given renewal of life,
May you bask in that eternal light,
for only then will know
the gift of giving and receiving
only then will you see
the mystery of mysteries,
the passion of knowing
and the beautiful meaning
of surrender
the gift of gifts,
a rare gem
wrapped in vevet
in the center of your heart.

[align=center]It Was Only Yesterday
I close my eyes and there he is,
Just as I had seen him
Yesterday,
Or was it a moment ago,
Smiling at me,
Taking my hand..
When was that,
I don't even
remember
my name,
But his,
I know his,
But, ofcourse,
How could I ever forget,
I hear his voice
and close my eyes
and there he is
How could I ever
Forget that face
that face, etched forever
in my soul..
I'm lost again,
again,I'm lost ,
where are you
I cannot see,
I cannot even remember when,
Yesterday
Or was it
A moment ago?
Just when was it
that you smiled
and took my hand
and I fell
madly in love...

[align=center]Come To Me by Em
Come to me,oh gentle soul
And let me hold your hand
Come to me my only love
And dance this waltz with me
Come to me,my handsome prince
Let me touch your breath
And even shall I faint with love
Hold me closer yet
come to me and sing to me
the song you wrote to love
and let me kiss your eyes my prince,
So that you can see,
My face so close
reflecting
you
Alas, alas,
There is no we.

[align=center]The Waltz by Em
Beloved, wherever I go, You are with me
What is the darkness,
I do not know,
for Your light is within me.
SO . . .
what dance are You flirting now,
before my very eyes ?
Enticing me with Your glowing colors
and endless forms,
indeed, so very shamefully beautiful .
Disappearing and reappearing,
at Your will, without my consent,
taking my longing and making it increase.
How outrageously bold You are,
for I think You know
how intoxicated I become.
Shameful . . .
What am I to do ?
I cannot hide in darkness,
for I thirst to behold the sight of You
and become ONE
with Your shimmering dance . . .
May I have this waltz ?

[align=center]My Dancing Heart by Em [/align]
I reached to touch your soul
To tell you of my love
And melted
Right before you
right before your feet
OH, my heart, where is my heart
Alas, there,it is
dancing
In mid air
And when You grinned
and took my hand
I became whole again
So that I could tell you
What I have never said before
So that I could touch you voice
When you smiled
I reached to touch your soul
To tell you of my love
And melted
Right before you
right before your feet
OH, my heart, where is my heart
Alas, there,it is
dancing
In mid air
And when You grinned
and took my hand
I became whole again
So that I could tell you
What I have never said before
So that I could touch you voice
When you smiled

Well Em....
they say....
I know, what you and I
do know....
they say
of course
in which direction I go
time and place
....
time and place
and ask to me....
if that time and place
is granted to you and me
Even...
if it is hard for me...
to know...
even if I not here,
(no one minds)
never mind...
that you are not here...
and in the mist of me
in the jungle of life,
I look upon heaven
to the skies of life
and say to me....
Well... my friend....
time also will come to you,
do not worry....
age does not matter
as long as
you face it,
with the dignity of you....
but the rest?
The rest Em....
is unknown... friend...
in reality,
who cares,
that once ....
in this board....
we did exist...
who?
So much I wrote
to Andrea Bocelli,
to a friend,
to love
to life
and what I did
achieve....
silence.....

Minha querida Em,
É com bastante tristeza minha e tua, ver que na verdade, ninguém é ninguém e para além disso, como tu sabes, a vida, é um caminho curto e muito longo.
Pobre ignorância dos ignorantes, que se atrevem a ter o descaramento de se esquecerem de ti e de mim.
No entanto Em, a nossa Alexandra, um membro novo da Rússia, passou alguns dos poemas que deixas-te aqui para um blog.
Bem, um Blog... Nada de errado Em... Tanto hoje como amanhã, será o futuro do mundo Digital, em que todos nós temos o direito a ser, a continuar o que deixamos, num determinado momento.
Agora, minha amiga... quase um há um mês... em que não teremos o prazer de continuar.....Mas... é assim.... Aceitar o que os outros na sua arrogância nos dão... com a nossa humildade... direi... é maior do que o inverso.

[align=center]Em dias perdidos,
em dias em que deixamos
por nós e em nós...
um pouco da vida
olho para as sombras do passado
e penso....
penso... que se valerá a pena....
o estarmos aqui as duas...
depois de tantos anos...
depois de tantas arguras....
depois...
de tantos desentendimentos,
e,
dentro de mim...
te digo a ti...
olha Em, nada na vida é em vão,
excepto quando...
a vontade dos homens
é toldada na sua inteligência
no seu querer...
no seu quotidiano...
Sabes, amiga,
perdi tantos amigos,
que hoje como ontem...
jamais me dirão...
uma palavra
jamais me darão
uma mão...
e em face da vida,
quando olho essa vida,
só lamento....
as horas
o tempo
a vida que dediquei de mim
aos outros
na intenção de ser...
na intenção de....
de....
No entanto, não olhes para mim
continua o percurso da vida
que ela
por si só sabera mostrar
que na ignorância dos povos
na ignorância da maldade
nada terá de volta
nem a sua liberdade eterna

Pim, food for thought. Some look into the mirror and see beauty but show only ugliness to others. Some look into the mirror and see flaws, but their inner beauty shines forth upon all those that they meet. Some are twice lucky, like Andrea.
