To: A Special Lady in Thornaby, I dedicate this poem:
"I stand still and stare, see the light in her eyes
Carried on the wind, her soft tender sighs.
I cannot believe that this beauty is mine
Her mouth slightly parted, her hair brightly shines.
To hold her I would die, or suffer so long
To show her I love her I have to be strong.
She's leagues away from me, the distance so far
And yet I can sense her, as I go to war.
I'll carry that with me through all of the pain
It gives me my strength as I go on again.
I hope that she knows how special she is
I hope that she sees it's her I would kiss.
This then I leave as I must go far away
My love for her shines like the sun through the day."
