Things

If tomorrow I lose everything
All the things I’ve gained ’til now
If they were all just taken away
I know I’d survive somehow

Things are nice to have, I know
They make life much easier too
They bring certain comforts to your world
As you struggle your way through

I really don’t care about the things
That I’ve acquired up ’til today
They can come and go so easily
I’ve lost many things along the way

Material things aren’t important to me
They’re replaceable, that is true
There’s only one thing I’d hate to lose
That’s the love I found with you!

    Love is never lost, stolen or replaced. Once LOVE is there, it is forever, stuck like glue…
    You may have another love, but the original love is always there… Peace… GOD bless.

    It is so true…things I have doesn’t matter if I don’t have you…things will fade eventually throughout time, but the powerful Love we have together from God has no time, its forever….hugs and kisses

    only one thing l know in this world, is, every other thing can pass and fade away true love never pass nor fade,it’s stronger than the love of husband and wife,true love, true friendship,l’ve seen were husband never loved their wife after so many years together he can still kill the wife for one reason or the other,so with the wife, children though living in the same house with their parent no peace nor love.but l’ve also seen even a distance friends love mutually more than human lmagination,that is true love,if u have this true love my dear, keep it to the end,is not something to loose.

    The blessings of GOD are new everyday, his love for us grows with each passing day. it’s an unselfish love for ALL Humanity. I am so glad I LOVE HIM and HE LOVES ME.

    It’s good to have things, but very true things are perishable, and to me most important is God; which is urs also I know, and family and our wonderful commitment.

    One thing that gives me comfort is the gift of love which lives in you my dear. The way you care…is very special to me. I give praise to God and all the glory. Without Jesus is no way we can make it in this world and to the father.

    Great words!!! I knew there are people here online that discribe their LOVE as ” very strong” but it has to be seen not just typed and sent . If that person said that his LOVE is so strong but after 3 yrs. they haven’t met face to face , then how could it be ” STRONG”. I travelled such a long way to TENNESSEE , just to see you, that’s how strong my love you .baby. Amid the trials and tribulations, I managed to visit you regardless . I LOVE YOU BABY, HUGS AND KISSES.

    Can I be able to make a copy without the comments people make. It is a waste
    of paper and ink.

    Hey, Samuel Abies,,,,are you sure you know what you are talking about? In what country does a husband kill his wife for that? Where are you from? A different planet or time zone? WoW, I think that you are just writing to be commenting! Just WHAT are you trying to say?

    Eu gostaria de saber quem me escreve, isso tudo, é tão verdadeiro, como o ar que eu respiro. Eu perdi muitas coisas materiais que conquistei; com meu suor, e ainda estou viva, e trabalhando; para novas conquistas materiais, sim é verdade, elas vão e vem, mas peder o Amor verdadeiro é tão difícil como aceitar a morte. Dói demais… Obrigada por suas palavras.

    My Sweetie Baby, It didn’t matter to me if i have to sit on the plane for 24 hrs. just to get to you. Material things can be found but TRUE LOVE is very hard to find. Strong LOVE shouldn’t be only expressed here online, but lovers who have strong love should feel and hold each other personally. it is a wonderful thing to do than expressing it here online alone. I LOVE YOU Baby, missing you more than you’ll ever, ever know. looking forward to seeing you very soon. hugs and kisses…..RPach
