You Healed my Heart

You Healed my Heart

A Poem by T. L. O'Neal

You Healed My Heart

Written by: T. L. O’Neal

 

You came along at the right time

When my heart was broken in two

You took your love and compassion

And the pain in my heart you withdrew

 

You did this for no other reason

Than to mend a broken heart

But after that my love for you

Nothing could tear us apart

 

I don’t know if I was worthy

To accept your loving ways

You were always good to me

And for this I have only praise

 

You make me so happy

This is very plain to see

You loved unconditionally

And loved me for me

 

You gave passion back to me

And made me feel like a man

With your loving gentle touch

From your silky smooth hand

 

Like a gentle cool breeze

Turning my embers to fire

You returned my passion

And restored my desire

 

Now it has been almost ten months

And everyday seems new

I want to repay you with my love

Because you took away the blue

A really beautiful poem, T. I love the strength and conviction of all you say. "Nothing could tear us apart", "unconditional love", "made me feel like a man", it's a relationship at its best. "I don't know if I was worthy - To accept your loving ways - You were always good to me - And for this I have only praise". It's just so sweet it makes me want to cry! Sounds like you guys are lucky to have found each other. Beautiful poetry on both pages for your birthday. There is no better gift in the world than true love from someone's heart!

T.L., this is beautiful in every sense of the word. Unconditional love is an incomparable-rich-treasure that will never be matched. I presume you wrote this for your love, Judi. I can see why she means so much to you. She has been a tremendous blessing to me in the short time I have known her. Have a beautiful birthday and you two enjoy yourselves! Thanks for sharing such a beautiful piece of your heart, T.L.!

Well done Terry. Difficult art to writing love poems and not making them too sickly. I think you have done this really well - also takes a brave man to put the poem on site. Many people will read this and know that you are a man with honest feelings and as Steph says below have given a 'beautiful loving compliment'.

Happy Birthday!

Important and as they say timing is everything. I was so impressed by the unconditional love of this piece. You are both so free and giving of your love. This is a great piece soulful and Expressive.

Oh,
This is so romantic, I just want to hug someone right now. I am envious of the love you have for each other. Oh well I will have my turn someday. I love the last stanza repay you with my love because you took away the blue. (I am getting to emotional I better stop or I just might start cry 'en)

Happy Happy Birthday

T L Dear

Happy days to you and yours all year

If I had a wish that wish would be-

A Happy Happy birthday from you to me.

I can hear that that special guy who I know and love saying these words to you, he is such a good man, I have always been able to see through the goodness in his heart and this proves all those thoughts I have had about him, God Bless the both of you this holiday season. Thank you for sharing his words with me. T has always been special to me, he is the kind of guy you wish you had known all your life, a good buddy.

I started writing as a way to work out my feelings and found that I enjoyed it very much. I enjoy humor and feel that you can find it in most things, even though it may be hard to find at the moment. .. more..
