    Author

    Teala Mangano

    Teala grew up in North Carolina, Texas and Kansas, which makes her two thirds a Southerner, although she left her heart in the Midwest. Always forthright, a little sassy and very independent, Teala has never been shy about speaking her mind. A strong advocate for animals and lost children, Teala finds joy and creativity in almost everything she encounters. After two cups of coffee in the morning, of course.

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Love and Lies - Teala Mangano

      Growing too close

      to tell you how I really feel

      Too afraid

      of what you would say

      of losing you

      of having to heal again

      My friend

      yet my heart cries for so much more

      Too many chances

      left untaken

      Too many nights

      spent regretting my unspoken words

      Now I've moved away

      leaving you in ignorance

      I adore thee

      with all my soul

      I love you

      But because of my foolish fears

      you will never understand just how much

      Eyes Closed. Heart Open.

      You don’t know

      that you set my heart on fire

      You don’t know

      that I see you in my dreams

      You don’t know

      how empty I am without you

      You don’t know

      that when you look into my eyes

      I find it hard to breathe

      You can’t see

      how happy you make me

      You can’t feel

      the butterflies flutter

      when you say my name

      When we’re together

      I’m free

      When you’re beside me

      I feel safe

      Nothing can touch me

      Nothing can hurt me

      You don’t know

      You can’t see

      You can’t feel

      just how much you mean to me

      just how much I care about you

      Wish Upon A Star

      Longing fills my heart

      as I stare at the night sky

      What I wouldn’t give

      to have you next to me

      What I wouldn’t give

      to have you holding me

      What I wouldn’t give

      to have your breath on my neck

      and your voice in my ear

      What I wouldn’t give

      to be near
