30/M/Ocean City I'm a cement mason from South Jersey. I write for fun.
I find myself blinded By the light of another's heart But I do not writhe at the lose of this sense Or try to make sense of its happening ...I wander through this deep forest of love And feel the deepest shade of red wash over me My feet become light as the breeze takes me Takes me as you have taken me... And as I seem to float deeper into love's forest The leaves graze my body like your finger tips The hum of the trees, like whispers from your lips The warmth of the sun, like the touch of your skin In a place where time has stopped Where intellect and reason hold the smallest of value Where the devine on earth is free to shine Lost deep and blind, in this forest of love

Love's Forest
Grey daylight bleeds through my bedroom window Wake me from a deep and dreamless sleep Rain echoes off the mud I am as bleek as the day Dayspring brings no optimism Like days of my youth When mornings swelled with exhilaration A sunny side disposition Now apprehension bears down Unbearably Pressing, choking, smothering The day is so terribly long Bone-weary I sit upon stones Begging the waves to wash away my sorrow Beseeching the sunset to take my regret But they do not The cold gust of night and melancholia Now all I have is the moon She pours down her shining sentiment Still I am alone

Woes of an Adult
White gleaming stars Of a heaven on earth You've always been with me In the most profound of ways In my best times, in my worst When I sit with friends and lovers Dressed in glass and silver topped Bringing something, to the table A bitter sweet relationship But of which I could call you neither And make vibrant all that you touch Like the passionate hand of a woman And if a man is worth you Then he is a friend of mine And if a man succumbs to anger Dare I call him salty And though God forbids you From the rivers and the rain You will always have a home In the ocean, and in my tears

Salt
Think of me as cigarettes Your poisoness, personal haze Pull me towards your sultry lips Set my mind ablaze Shape me into silver plumes A time to feel worthless Push me out into the moon A sun that sits in darkness Think of love and all that's lost And all that's never found So think of me as cigarettes And breathe me into clouds
