How It Should Be

Sprawled across the bed
Hair mussed up from the pillow
Chest rising slightly as you breathe
Taken half the covers, caught around
Your legs, though the thin sheet
Doesn’t leave much to the imagination
Your arm resting in my empty space
When your eyes finally flicker open
They search the room for clarity
Before landing on mine
And you smile.
As if life is only a dream, my dream.

Distracted Mind

Spent all day thinking, dreaming

Of the ways that you can take me

under.

Hidden Language of the Soul

People watched in awe

As they flew through

The air, smiles on their

Faces, defying Newton’s

Law till they came down

On the tips of their toes,

As if angels dancing upon

Clouds above, illuminating

With serenity, Moving as

Though the joy will cease

To exist, soul-stirring rhythms

Manipulating their bodies into

A perfect sync, until the music

Ended and they harmonized back

Into the human world, only

Needing the reminder of the

Music running through their

Veins, to know how they are

Truly connected.

Out of Nowhere

Everything is so familiar
Like an ocean breeze
Smelling of salt, warmed
With the summer’s heat
As if you never leave
The memories still vivid
Mixing of good and bad
Heart and mind spinning
Lingering feelings of nostalgia
The last few weeks of summer,
We slowly divulge as the
World gets back to work
You were cold, but kept me warm
As my rose-tinted glasses
Clear, let me relish what’s near
As I dream of you in the ocean’s breeze.

A Heavenly Spell

Come
Help me forget
What I don’t want to remember
With a touch so soft
Lips lead me into a distant world
Turn my head into a foggy morning
With nibbles and tickles
Bury me deep in sensations
So my eyes will never yearn to open

Feeling Yes

Sometimes you have to say no
To the nibbles and kisses
Before opening your eyes in the morning
Making you smile before the day even breaks

 

Sometimes you have to say no
To the walk in the park
Love that is ever so easy to see
In the reflection of their eyes

 

Sometimes you have to say no
To the life you thought you’d live
To search for the person
With eyes that don’t reflect you

 

But stare in a way
That makes you feel the warm glow
Of their love upon your skin
So that you can sometime say, yes.

A Writer’s Vision

Writing poetry in the dark
Allows for your words
To be painted across the
Blank canvas of your mind

As they trickle down the page
Only you can see
The path they are going to take
As they are so intricately picked

Behind each line
A story of it’s own
Folding together
To make up one great journey

When it ends, you step back
A smile upon your face
As you look at the piece of you
You just created.

The Reveal

Before you can move on,
You have to admit what went wrong.
 
Do you know how long that took?
 
Before the guilt-ridden feelings,
Stubborn-ness and anger passed,
Allowing my mind to finally,
Believe what my heart was telling me.
 
I turned myself into someone you needed,
The rock that you could always lean on.
 I was being pushed into the ground,
Not being able to come up to breathe.

 

No longer a rock but a pebble,
Being tossed around by someone’s shoe.
 
All the sad and broken feelings,
The passive aggressive revealing,
Must seem dark,
Getting a glimpse into my heart.
 
But through the year of self imposed torture,
I knew my heart was still pure,
I still wanted to apologize,
For leaving you without your rock. 
 
I just –
Couldn’t take it any longer.

Just Look Into Those Eyes

The sudden rush of emotion
Blood surging to your cheeks
Its like nothing else in the world
When you’re feeling something so sweet
 
You wonder if it’s true
Maybe your mind is pulling tricks
But when you look up into those of eyes of his
you couldn’t live with just a trick
 
To know that you are someone
That someone wants to know
Is something that can’t be taken
Or ever be mistaken
 
For we dream of love
Fairytales feeding our cravings
Leaving our minds full of hopes
And realities that aren’t quite the dreams
 
When our dreams and hopes
Fall from their high pedestals
We begin to learn
Love is not for the ungrateful
 
When that feeling comes around
We try to leave all skepticisms behind
Instead of questioning it’s motive
Just look into those eyes.

For the Best

Image
 Tomorrow is the day
That I will want to go into hiding
To hide from the stares
Waiting for me to break.
 
Pushing back the thoughts
The feelings and memories
That the looks of despair
Bring back all too much.
 
I never do break
The attention would be unbearable
So I wait till the dark of night
When my tears won’t be interrupted.
 
You’d think it would get better
Be indifferent
But 18 years
Doesn’t change a thing.
 
So I will take the day with grace
Not hide, but embrace
I will tell story after story
Smile at every look and stare.
 
For the day isn’t’ my day
Not mine to wallow in self-pity
But to remember the best
Happy Father’s Day, Dad.
