If I  had a box of wishes Of dreams and secrets I’d stow it away, safe. For keepsakes. Stretch the seconds endlessly Those that held you and me. Extending time to infinity. I would stash the words That you made true. The box of wishes, Would have the whispers, The touches, glances Kisses you stole, Your all-consuming love Took me myself as a whole. Moments that we owned. Locked in a space. Little did I know. The box of wishes Perforates time. It reeks of nothing. And leaves behind painful memories.

The box of wishes.
It all began With a hug An embrace Loving warm My safe place Smells of love Sweet sweat Steamy hot So close and tight Almost breathless Gasping for air Love is love And some despair.

Love is...
Where do I fly? You ask me. Into the summer sky Where the setting sun Bounces waves Off her ***** As she breathes her last for the night Does she sleep or worry Storms and winds she has to carry. 'Tomorrow' who knows? So give her hope. coz you have been there before.

Where Do I Fly?
‘Take away my blues ‘ I said a quiet prayer. ‘What will you have left then?’ Answered God ‘The sky I painted The seas tainted Are there for you to blend into. Blue is here to stay.’ ‘Go on’ he said ‘I have a busy day...

Take away my blues
Do you know why I love you, honey? You are sticky and sweet You don’t dry up No matter what I do you never go bad. You are acidic yet medicinal. My antioxidant my energizer. You know I cant do without you. That amber glow Drives me crazy When I ask you Tea or me?

Honey
Sipping tea Alone someday You will miss me Then close your Dreamy eyes Go ahead and laugh The way you do At me, at us. That’s cool, really We would be cool Wouldn’t we? Take a stroll On the beach Feel that sand Slip away Under your Disproportionate feet Send those seagulls Away, far away That’s cool, really so they don’t bother you With some stormy memory. Keep that office Door open Always. Let them take the litter That’s cool, really Locking it might remind You things Won't do any better Drive by the café Have our special That’s cool , really Just smile If you see our bench that was made for two. If you see someone cry Go ahead Wipe that tear That’s cool really You do that well you listen, you care but please ignore those moles Lest they talk to you about someplace you met them long ago. Go ahead and forget me Babes that’s cool really Don’t just ever Let me know That your heart is empty the last crumbles Of love I scraped out It was too good to believe.

Thats cool, really.
I watch you sit across So in love with me You won't say a word Let alone look at me Then hurricane Katrina Seems to come back Spinning in my head Grey matter takes a whack You with me Strange things come true The universe turns into a canvas Impossibilities are few We could build a starship To fight alien invasions Go back and forth in time Exploring parallel dimensions What if we were captives In an Intergalactic zoo Invent ways to make love Aliens won't have a clue! Experience every fantasy Only you and I can vouch Exploring enhanced imagination Sitting across the couch.

The couch of Imagination
Theres’ more than breath I Inhale Words, where are you ? Don’t you fail Its cold and hot, the feelings nice Be careful honey, you’re treading on ice. My worlds’ tilted, at a weird angle Threads of thoughts a messy tangle Yet I smile when I am alone Is it me or my clone?
