KM May 2014
I can't sing anyone's songs right
I guess I should just sing our own
Create my own harmonies with you
The kind that fit my voice and yours
Blending us completely

Passion (pt. 2)
KM May 2014
His passion isn't just
A touch or a kiss
but the way he gently whispers
How badly he'll miss
my presence my love
if I ever walked away
But deep down my love knows
I never could stray

They way he explained
his pure hearts desire
Waiting for me
walking through fire
Not the easy route
By a far thought indeed
But a temporary passion
Despite a humanistic plead

A short-living phase
Makes it so hard
Not to sing him sweet praise
For loving me true and pure and strong
He's willing to wait
To 'become one' through bond

My heart he makes soar
Sing and leap great distance
I'm glad he's so stubborn
And sweet and persistent
He's learning to lead me
Guide me the right way
I'll always be his
Past the end of our days

Passion (pt.1)
KM May 2014
When I think of the word passion
I think of him
And the look that shines in his eyes
When our lips barely touch
And we begin to kiss
The glimmer he shares
For just me to see
A look between lovers
His passion for me

Art

Art
I've written so many unfinished poems the last two days
And it's starting to make my skin crawl
But I keep desperately coming back
I need to finish a poem I need to get it out
But what am I trying to get out
I can't find words anymore
No longer do they gracefully slip out
Stuttering and stumbling
These poems are a sad excuse for art

Loving
KM May 2014
If your lover
Your mate
Helper
Partner
Loses zeal
Loses beauty
Looks twisted
Unrecognizable
Unattractive
When you disagree
Fight
Argue
Breakdown
Then you aren't loving

But my friend
My best
My favorite
You are as handsome as ever.

How To Love (pt.2)
KM May 2014
Selfless love
For my love is not mine
It's for you my dear
To be selfless and kind
An act I can't master
Though I'm trying I swear
My selfless love
I apparently can't share

The stinging bite of the frozen waves

Blushing Bride (Part 1)

Deep within my heart
And my lover
My best friend
You're in so deep
You found it
And you make her blush

KM Mar 2014
Listening is a complex activity
But I can't help myself
From staring out this window
At the birds, the flowers and trees
Gently being guided by the wind
On a sweetly flavored day
Right on the tip of spring
Pushing the thoughts of winter
Far far away

My Soul

I just need a little help
A little hope

What's happening to me
Nothing triggered
This deep burning in my soul

In Between
KM Mar 2014
Stuck between the moment
Of reality and make believe
If I could grab a hold
I wonder which side would set me free

A gravitational pull
Keeping me locked between
A choice within myself
To others it remains unseen
Real quick collab with Mike Hauser :)

Fog
KM Feb 2014
Fog
Sitting heavy on the sight
Filling her bones full of fright
Yet comfort and peace within
As she starts to feel some wind
The autumn leaves so damp together
Her bare feet in such cold weather
A tattered dress upon her figure
She calls to him and waits for answer
Time goes by and silence surrounds
Beating down like a hundred hounds
Till a sudden stir in the darkness nearby
As clouds roll in and cover the sky
Sneaking and creeping out of the dark
A man whose bite is worse than his bark
He takes her hand and twirls her about
Pushing away any fear or doubt
Holding her close and easing her pain
She sings to him, doing the same
Ballroom dancing in a graveyard scene
Keeping to the shadows to remain unseen
Sweet words and laughter fill the crisp air
And with each other, their hearts lay bare
Their bare feet in such cold weather
And the autumn leaves are so damp together
They start to feel the chilling wind
But warm from the peace within
The two of them, shining so bright
On a foggy autumn graveyard night
I've always wanted to dance barefoot in a graveyard on a foggy autumn night..

Laughter
KM Feb 2014
Busting out in side splitting laughter
When you want to sit and sob
Truly makes one feel insane
2/17/2014
KM Feb 2014
In a tomb by the sounding sea
That’s where he waits for me
His lover long lost
Never to be beside again
Moans and wails and shrieks of horror
As that wickedly turning sea
Gracefully and steadily, it regurgitates me
His lover returning
But not quite the same
Gagging and choking and coughing up salt
Slimy skin from the waters embrace
A twisted grin of joy on his face
His out stretched arms
I stand at the shore line
With a glowing smile enticing
Laughing and crying he stumbles forwards
Water logged eyes shining bright
Knowing to him, I’m a glorious sight
Stopping just before my gentle touch
His smile fades as his mind catches up
Why won’t he come closer to me?
Hesitating and questioning his bride before him
His gut screams no but his heart pushes on
A whisper escapes ‘but you were meant to be gone’
I smile graciously as I reach for his hand
‘My sweet love, but I’m here now, follow me’
Holding and locking our fingers together
Turning to face the calmed, silent sea
Swallowing us whole to the depths to be free
In a tomb together, my lover and me

Evaluating the words she
Let escape her lips.

Gently roll off your face

Coffee Shops
KM Jan 2014
I want to go to coffee shops with you
See the world from your point of view
Watch the ocean waves break and crash
Run through the rain as the thunder cracks
I want to sing with you in the morning light
Hear you whisper between us in the night
Stand atop a mountain and take in the view
I want to go to coffee shops with you

I Grow Under My Sky
KM Jan 2014
I grow under my sky
He shines brightly for me
Nourishes my soul
Fills me with all that I need
He called me his flower
Saying I smell so sweet
And grow in the light
That I bud and blossom
And grow so beautifully
Does my sweet sky know
That he is the light
That makes me grow?
Shining so brightly
On my cloudy days
Raining when I'm dry
Filling me with all I need
Because I am his flower
And he is my sky

Tortured Soul
KM Jan 2014
The sharpest jagged nails
Sitting inside my mind
Like a jail cell with no clean air
I sit in the corner of my mind
***** and held by shackles
Dragging my jagged nails
Down the insides of my mind
And I feel it
I feel the nails on the inside of my skull
Clawing, digging, fighting
And now I know
The blinding screams
They were me all along
My very own prisoner
My little tortured soul

A Long Day
KM Jan 2014
Soggy noodles
And the chili I've added
Stinging my dried
Cracked and bright pink lips

Freezing air
And my delicate skin
Stinging and burning
My now rosy raw cheeks

I deeply long for the stinging in my chest of the crisp winter air and I've found an affinity for the rawness of my cheeks after the bitter wind bites me

Feeling Tiny
KM Jan 2014
Sometimes I feel extra tiny
Like when he holds me tight
I love him more than jasmine tea

And a rather pleasant sight
He's my pillar and makes me happy
And washes clear all my fright

Oh the mocking laughter
Gets louder and louder
As the heart I broke
Sits silently in front
And I sit across
Useless and hopeless
Can't fix a thing
Can't be trusted at all
And the mocking laughter
Gets louder and louder
I feel like my heads going to explode
I can't say I'm sorry enough

Instant Gratification
KM Jan 2014
The constant mental banter
    Back and forth yes or no
        Do I disappoint my love
            For a moment of instant gratification?

            Do I throw away recovery
        Three solid months
    Itchy skin and hateful thoughts
For a moment of instant gratification?

                                                               ­                                                         And I'm so full of regret
                                                                ­                                                     Because it wasn't worth it
                                                              ­                                                       And I hurt my best friend
                                                          ­                                         For a moment of instant gratification

          A moment of instant gratification
          That wasn't even gratifying
          Wasn't in the slightest, satisfying
          Harboring a moment of regret
          For something he won't forget
          But I tried in vain to justify
          The actions I couldn't dignify
          Words that trickled like thorns
          Oh how I wish I waited a minute more
          And not let their whispers win
          Screams rather, as they crawl in
          They soothed their shrieks
          And gently brushed my cheeks
          And convinced me it didn't count
          If it didn't bleed on my account  
          But he held my close and said it did
          I can't swallow it, but it's true, I backslid
          "But it didn't leave any marks to show"
          My mind screams and my heart does echo
          "I didn't bleed in the slightest my dear"
          Disappointing him is a biggest fear
          As immaturity grasps at my soul
          I have to accept my repercussions in whole
          Three months down the drain
          And causing my best friend pain
          Not a scar to show for what I've done
          But away from me, he'll never run..
Wrote the first two stanzas in late November.. The rest is from this morning..
But if I'm being honest that last chunk is really cool and written well in my opinion.

I'm so sorry love.. I'm sorry my sky..

Healing
KM Jan 2014
It's be six long years
Tainted by many tears

Crawled into her arms

Who became her sky
He's improved her life
She'll become his wife

Her blades been thrown away
Her demon can no longer stay

Into her smooth flesh
But they never stayed

The deep purple scars
Haunting her perfect thighs
Oh they always stay

KM Jan 2014
I can easily recall the taste of your soft lips
And the way it felt when you softly bit

I secretly loved the way you messed up my hair
And the way we would sit squished in one chair

I enjoy how we solve things, when conflict does arise
And between your heart to mine, there are no lies

I can easily recall the sweet scent that lingers on your skin
And the way it left me intoxicated within
I secretly loved the way you lightly teased me
And the way you make me feel so free
I enjoy how safe and secure you are
And between your hear to mine, even from afar
KM Jan 2014
That first hug at the bus stop
We were both shaking
But only a minute
Till we felt so at home,
Sorry our first kiss
Was outside a bathroom
In a bus station
Next to our fathers
I just couldn't wait any longer,
Resting my hands on your soft neck
And gazing into your deep loving eyes
Could easily and happily be
My most favorite past time,
Laughing by the fire
Holding all close in the snow
Spending time by you
Is the best time I've ever known,
The way you hold me
Firm and loving
Gentle and safe
Such and overwhelming craving,
I felt it too, our heart aching
As I lightly brushed the tears
Off your soft but fuzzy cheeks
As we stood in the rain
And you were pulled away
And I watched you drive away again
But at least this time, darling
I know you're my best friend
And soon we'll be together
Laughing and smiling and holding each other
And before too long has passed
We'll be married and all close
Forever, at last
Seriously funky rhyme going on here

Tired
KM Dec 2013
With such a heavy heart
I dust off and carry forth
The weight of my world
The weight of the entire earth

          Holds me by the ankles
          By the wrists and neck
          Baring down on all I am
          Waiting for me to break

                   The harder I try to fight
                   The tighter the suffocating grip
                   Even some good days
                   I wonder if I'm sick

                            Such a sad little thing
                            Just want to spread smiles
                            Maybe that's the reason why
                            I go through so many trials
The first two stanzas are more of 'near' rhymes than actual rhymes I suppose. Oh well.

Voice of Truth
KM Nov 2013
God, Father, Creator
The most perfect artist
Flawless work
Every time

Like the contrast
Of the deep blues
Greys, and purples
That make up rain clouds
As the deep oranges
Reds and yellows
Of the ever present sun
Fight the darkness

Or the contrast
You've created in me
Imbalanced, broken, a mess
Dark corners and scary halls
Constantly being fought
By my joy, my hope
The cheery bright child
That won't stay silent

The love you've created
The love you've allowed me to feel
And experience in full
Is more than I, a broken human, deserve
But regardless you show me
Mercy, grace, love, forgiveness
Because all the darkness
Within me or without
Will never take away my title;
Your beloved child

Such beauty and love..
And suddenly he was the only one in sight.

My Reason
KM Nov 2013
The sparkle in his eyes
When he's doing his best
His arms his embrace
My ultimate place of rest

Two halves of one heart
Two halves of one mind
To share one life
Together completely entwined

All that he is, so perfect to me
A love that's light on the darkest days
Encouraging, uplifting, tightest embrace
He's explored my minds dark dark caves

Not a doubt in my soul
And by my side he remains
And by his I'll stand true
Even when my sky rains

I'll give him my all, my very best
Such  joy from our lives being combined
I'll be his light when he loses his way
Till the days we hobble and walk with canes

You are simply marvelous, my love.

Three Words For You
KM Nov 2013
It's like when I say I love you
I'm not just saying those words
They don't carelessly roll and trickle
Off my lips
Off my tongue
Through my teeth.
I'm saying that
I adore
Respect
Admire
Look up to you.
I'm saying that
All that you are
You hold the title of;
My best friend
The love of my life and
My everything.
When I tell you I love you
I'm not just saying three words,
I'm reciting my poetry
The depths of my heart
My songs
My sleepy 4 am promises
All for you
Because...
More than anything
More than anyone
I love you

Sweet Dreams
KM Nov 2013
Do you ever wake up
More exhausted than the night before?
As if your sweet dreams
Opened another worlds door?

No white rabbits here
This isn't Wonderland
You won't be young forever
For it isn't Neverland

Here the sandman drags his bag
Through the recesses of your mind
Covering up your childhood dreams
To forever be lost in time

Every crack every crevasse
No rest will be found
Nightmare or dream
Screams make no sound

So run, run, run as fast as you can
For in dreams you have no choice
When being chased down by the unknown
Like I said screams have no voice

Toss and turn and fight to awake
Your body will stay departed
In this dream or reality you're stuck
In a nightmare, vastly uncharted

Struggling to get through the underbrush
In the jungles of your dreams
Where your never sure what lays in the shadows
And nothing is as it seems

So again I ask, do you ever wake up
More exhausted than the night before?
As if your sweet dreams
Opened another worlds door?
Did this with Mike Hauser! Such a great poet.

My sweet lovers body, my man
My best friend in the world,
Can be incredibly ****
He can be hot
He can be
Irresistible
And make me tremble..
But he is more.
His body is strong and sturdy
He can hold me up,
In more ways than one..
He is perfectly made
Such exquisite art
And his every inch
Fits with mine
Better than any..
But he is more.
His love for me
His passion for art
The music in his veins..
A heart so pure
So strong
So caring
But when alone
Just he and I..
Vulnerability
Which holds such beauty,
I cannot rightly
In any string of words
Express..
But he is still more.
His arms bring me safety
His chest gives me rest
He is my comfort..
Every detail
That makes up my love,
Gives me joy
And his heart
His beautiful heart
Gives me peace
I love you.

Madly in love
My lucky star
You've become

You're my best friend
My brave dear knight
My heart you mend

Or so you swore
They never work out

Sadistic pleasure

Requires much control

I might let go
Have some fun
But regain control
When I'm done

Just a moment
This mood will pass
Though I may abuse
