That night I kissed you for the first time. How soft you lips were, the softest I had kissed. How soft your golden skin was. How soft your ever so round gray trimmed eyes were. The way you sat down onto my lap, like a descending piece of paradise. Falling into my hands, like you were meant to be. The way you felt on me, soft and warm and firm and real. I shook, I faltered, you ignored it. You let me show you what I could do later on, but you let me be a fool that night. You let me love you and trusted enough to let yourself be pleased.

Peridot
I never lean on one thing. There are many pillars, many webs, many back up plans. It is not something I hide, it is just something you have to look for. This is my nature, but I am happy with it being so. I love more than one thing, and need even less. I will not chase, I will not bend in your favor. But I will bend in mine. If you remember that, you will understand me so much better.

I Need Me
I hope to always be a good lover. For her, and for me. Never be what hurts her, never let myself be hurt. To always be gentle to her, never let myself be bruised. To show her resepect, and to never allow disrespect. Not to be passive and unmindful, and not to be tossed aside. Never to prey upon her, or be preyed upon. Give her passion, and not be someones idle toy. Give her understanding, and demand someone who cares. To always make sure I give, but not the only one giving. To make sure she's happy, but not at my expense. I want us to always come back to eachother for all the right reasons.

Justices' Scale
I will allow you to experience me, but I will not allow you to own me. You will not manipulate me. Control me. Cut me off from others. Make me need you. You will not conquer me. Tear me down. Cloud my judgement. Change my morals. You silly little thing. I am so much more powerful than you think I am.

Advice for Past, Present, and Future Self
You tell me that you mean what you say, but what you mean is that you get what you want.

Never love someone more than you love yourself, and you will never be made a fool of. Never trust completely, and you can never be truly hurt. Thinking the worst of people is dreary work, but always keeping a foot out is safe.

Life Lessons
I climbed the ******* mountain peaks to meet you today. I found the bleeding fog, and breathed it calmly. The presence of time is almost as heavy As your wishes are. I tried to open your mind, Please don't return the favor. Your mind is a mess, A maze, Hard to understand. And you're rocking, In you're rocking chair. You're wearing you shear whites, Drinking your honey wine, Praying to Mary like she's divine. I'm in the misty peaks, stuck in a cove. Up a tree, down below. This place is not real, it cannot be. Look around, get off your knees. And you're rocking, In you're rocking chair. You're wearing you shear whites, Drinking your honey wine, Praying to Mary like she's divine. You stand up, you point it out. You look mad to me. Crazy as could be. Good god, hang up your hat. Give it a rest, I'm not like that. I am my hero, I am my compass. I have my own eyes, don't **** my rights Don't force me to follow, What is unnatural. And you're rocking, In you're rocking chair. You're wearing you shear whites, Drinking your honey wine, Praying to Mary like she's divine. Your ***** is dead, Your disciple is hung. Your God is dead. Stop beating your drum.

The Complex
Have you ever let your veins run dry, Just so the other can drink? Have you ever let some one in, To the point that you can't breath? The world can't get you now. The world can't have you now. You gave yourself, To an unworldly creature. With out her, There is no real me. Without her love I can't Ever be truly happy. I will give up all that I am, To try and make her happy. I will give my heart and soul, To have an eternity. We both are a little crazy, But it's over each other. We are both a little out of touch, With the rest of the world. I wouldn't take this another way, Wouldn't ever give away, What I found in her, I will always be here to stay. My love, my one, My eternity.

My Love
So close that I can feel it. I have believed you now more than ever. You are more dedicated. I know you're mine. I want this. I want to dedicate. I want to come home and be safe. I want this pretty woman, To be my forever. I have felt all the pain, And you show me you know. You beg me to hold on for Another breath. So I will. Because what she said is right. This other woman, she knows. When she looked us in the eye and said "You have what it takes, you have the support. It will be a battle at first, but your love will hold. You have the connection, you have the strength." Finish your business, and come home to me.

So Close
Tucked so far away and deep, Quietly it sits but breathes. Our little house. Cobbled concrete through the picket gate. A lazy cats lays in wait. Green grass tangled sweetly, With soft moss growing neatly. The soft trees flowing briskly, Their leaves turning crisply. Our large windows, how they let in the light. Our dark floors, how the love the warm nights. Claw foot tub on our tile floor. Sitting on all silver fours. The roses want in, they climb through the window. The french doors open and the curtains billow. Richly the air soaks into us both. This house, so sweetly kisses us. Keeps us. Takes us away. Our heart is in the stone, the brick and the wood. I would never leave if I could. Love, won't you take me home tonight.
