The only insecurity is security. The moon will not stop shining until the suns stops burning. As long as the sun burns it will light up the moon. It will force its way through darkness, it will burn until it can burn no more. If you love me as the sun burns, until you can burn no more, I will be your light unto darkness until I can shine no more. Burn all of me and I will enlighten all of you.

As the sun burns
Is she the genesis of my addiction to different shades of brown? The windows of her soul is striking with radiance, entrancing every bit of me. Her complexion is a heavenly shade of honey, with a hint of golden brown. She will be my drug of choice, my downfall in the unknown. One look at her is just enough to drown too deep and call it home.

Shades of brown
milk and honey, bodies entwined. Comfortable in the warmth of each other. Skin to skin, I am her milk and she is my honey.

milk and honey
She is the words that I in twenty eight years could not find in the most poignant poetry. She is the syllables for which my soul has suffered through stanzas, in search of perfection. She is the reason for my poetic pen. She is the ink that carves into the blank pages my life has been.

she is
When I lose myself as trees do their leaves. Help me to pick it up and guard it against tainting thieves. Take me by storm, but shelter me. Show me how to dance in the rain. Shine upon me the rays of your laughter and sow sunflower seeds in the garden of my heart. And when summer comes, swim in my ocean. Refresh yourself with the summer sun of my sweet insanity.

seasonal desires
In a world of Haiku's and holy hallucinations, she struggled with sacrificial synonyms. She strived to be a Sonnet. Soft syllables, swirling and twirling. Pen to paper, paper to possession of her imprisonment. In time and turmoil she took on the Tanka. Terrible beauty, taint her not. She explored the fields of the things she was not. How utterly ironic How deeply deranged. From the Haiku's, she was estranged. Free verse she became and with passion she proclaimed that never, for the life of her, would her pen and paper again be tamed. She strived to be a Sonnet but was tamed by a Tanka. She was fascinated by Free verse, She finally wrote the perfect stanza.

prisoner to poet
Her warm skin close to mine. Enchanted by the way she moves. I travel in time. She takes me to the stars. Until I forget what gravity feels like. She takes me to the moon. And I lose sight of the earth. She takes me away. The world stood still. Slowly Softly I shiver of sensation. Trembling temptation she is to me.

Trembling Temptation
As stars are burning, Falling to the earth Intruiging is the soul. For in provoking eyes An intense beauty is found. Disturbed by waves of emotion I seek the unknown For I find my deepest self Anywhere but home For in a world of war Peace is shown And in rage She kept me calm Beautiful is the universe For it set me free By lending me a soul Who let's me be
