James Elston Poems

Courage is doing what is right
Without having to be told
Courage is manning up
When you know you've done something wrong
...

With you I am strong
Happy as can be
Every morning I wake up
I'm glad your next to me
...

When I looked into your eyes
You asked if I'd always love you
Before either one of us could blink
I told you Forever and Always
...

One day your on top of the world
Liked by all your peers
Pitching in the Major Leagues
And receiving lots of cheers
...

Without you I am nothing
Alone, I'm boring and dull
Every night I thank the good lord
That I have you to hold
...

I never use to believe in love
To me it never existed
All it did was bring me pain
Therefore I tried to resist it
...

When we first kissed
On that chilly March night
...

I feel happyiness and full of life,
When I am with you
I feel pain, sadness, and sorrow
When we are apart
...

Inevitable
Our feelings we share
Undeniable
Our love for one another
...

It's like the rainbow left behind
After an early after rain shower
It's the warmth you feel
From the early morning sun
...

Every night of every day
I think of your beautiful smile
Your long, dark hair and
Your lucious pink lips
...

Why is it that they say nothing can be perfect
Is it because they themselves are not perfect
Or maybe thier lives are not perfect
If nothing is perfect then does perfect exist.
...

13.

I will always love you
Forever I'll be true
Look into my eyes
They'll tell you, 'I LOVE YOU.'
...

14.

I know that I'm gone
And promised I'd be strong
But if I didnt miss you this much
Then I know I'd be wrong
...

When I looked into your eyes
And said those words 'I do'
I saw the passion in your eyes
That said forever you'd be true
...

From Florida to Kuwait
We are miles apart
But that really don't matter
Becuase we are connected at heart
...

I struglle day and night
To provide for my family
I work real hard at night
Then go to school at day
...

From the pain, there came a life
From the darkness, a light appeared
Through the tears, the joy is exposed
Now two people, unite as one
...

Being depressed is a very sad thing
I wish it on no one this sadness I feel
I would be okay if you were by my side
But you not and I wonder how can I carry on inside
...

When we first met
My heart was like a puzzle
Over time pieces had been scattered everywhere
You didn' care
...

The Best Poem Of James Elston

Tribute To Courage

Courage is doing what is right
Without having to be told
Courage is manning up
When you know you've done something wrong
Courage is looking the enemy in the eye
And telling them to just bring it
Courage is having fear
But still staying strong
Courage is facing adversity
But being able to overcome it
Courage is leaving your family behind
To defend the country you love
Courage is being a soldier
In the greatest army in the world
Thank you for this courage
That lets us live free
May God bless you
And come home safely to your families
