American I am not an American writer, I'm just a person.
French made jacket faux-hawk fancy free dancing gait tiptoeing dreaming of the sea mumbling, musing finally light and free hollowed out and yet engorged with intricacies sloping, sweeping eyes glued to me dripping sweetness and sensitivity.

You
My sweet man, you don’t have me. But, baby, you’ve got my memory. And you’ll always have my love. That’s one thing that never leaves. How can one choose to control their life? Tomorrow I’ll be in a collision and die. Goodbye, Goodbye, my dear goodbye. What’s life worth living if you can’t say you tried? So long, pain. Goodbye, goodbye. I must look out for myself and leave you behind. What wisdom exists? Who knows what I’m to do? So many signs I’ve missed That’s when I should’ve left you. How can one choose to control their life? Tomorrow I’ll be in a collision and die. Goodbye, Goodbye, my dear goodbye. What’s life worth living if you can’t say you tried? So long, pain. Goodbye, goodbye. I must look out for myself and leave you behind. My first love You’ve torn me down Alone, alive, and always around How can one choose to control their life? Yesterday I was in a collision and died. Good morning, my dear, Hi. What’s life worth living if I can’t say I tried? How do you do, pain. I’m alive, alive. I must look out for myself But I can’t leave you behind. My sweet man, you have me. Baby, we have our memories. And you’ll always have my love. That’s one thing that never leaves.

Tomorrow
You've never held me so closely or as tenderly, dear. The lies built up inside you and created a barrier of fear. Your smile has never been as real or as heartbreakingly sweet. Your heart thumped so timely without skipping one beat. I sensed your truth for the first time yesterday I wanted you more than ever and in so many more ways. I wanted you back without waiting the long, coming days. To run free, away from your disease and into the sun's bright rays. I only long for you, love without all of your pain. You really gave me comfort I can never explain I only hope to have it back one day, after your addiction wanes.

I Saw You on The Patio, Conor Oberst as Your Background
Is it possible that "meant" might be? That I need you and you need me? Maybe you and I We are meant to be With my hand in yours Somewhere by the sea. Because one day life will cease On this we can agree But until then I know I will love you relentlessly

Meant Might Be
A flame flickers from its own smoke as you and I flee and fight eternity it's not our own, but that of our country. We all move toward the same destiny It's the stuff in the middle in which we differ. Time is always present Only for some it's quicker... You can't fight your own life for it only makes you bitter. Why waste another minute experience-less and lame? Though time is still moving, life isn't the same. Squeeze the day; with its juice make joy. Enjoy the life you have without being coy.

Squeezing the Juice
Defense is everything Heart is nothing Leaving each other never means loving. What's that saying about drivers? Be a defensive one... Always pushing, always abandoning Never devoted, just done. When did society become so selfish and scared? So many dead and dying with hearts beyond repair. **** fleeing, stick around.** Forigve mistakes, don't push someone out. Don't leave someone when they're down. Stop thinking about yourself and LOVE Quit worrying about you pain and HELP Give others what they deserve and TRUST Embrace the sweetness in what society considers "stupidity" Stay with them - because we're all human...aren't we?

Sweetness in "Stupidity"
C'est comme dit The Smiths, "If I seem a little strange That's because I am But I know that you would like me If only you could see me If only you could meet me I don't have much in my life But take it - it's yours" Je vous aime. Vous ne verrez jamais? Nous s'emboîtions comme les pieces d'un puzzle. Laissez-moi de rentrer. Laissez-moi de vous connaître.

Je vous attends.
If death knocks on your door; invite it in.     Don't fight it off; you won't win. Welcome it as you would welcome your kin.     In this ocean known as life, we all drown or swim. Only some of us get eaten by sharks... They sneak up and pull us into the dark.     We're gone too soon With no chance to say goodbye.     The sharks always succeed Although we may try.     We'll kick         and scream             and flail about They'll bring us down; without doubt. When death comes knocking     Don't bother locking. Let it in, sit down to chat     And in doing that... You'll solve the great mystery     No one has lived to unravel. Where do we go?         What do we see?                 Do we ever come back?                         Or stay eternally? If a shark takes me; so be it.     Drowning is unpleasant, too. I do love mysteries, though     And one day I'll solve this one Just as you'll all do.

Inviting, Accepting - Death, Cancer
I love you just as every day was our first also as it could be our last. I love you for present, future, and past. I doubt we'll fight one another I need only fight myself From over-reacting and being rash And putting my emotions upon a shelf. Why is it always first response To blame outside yourself When dilemma comes from A spirit without inner health. One thing I can promise you Though I may cause you distress Is to apologize and learn for future I will guarantee you my best Your love I will not test Dear I won't blame you For issues you cannot grasp. I adore your scent and the smile that flees from your face to counteract your sadness which within you has no rightful place. When you touch me reality disappears The world fades along with my tears Your body blends in with mine Together we create a never ending line. Your honesty is a blessing Your kindness is resfreshing Your care and concern breathe life into my being. Your affection is an element with a half-life of forever on my skin and mind and spirit your kisses tingle and linger. No other one could do what you do And so I am thankful to have met you Thank you for letting me in, dear I promise to take care and caution with your life I won't ask to be your wife. I need only know I have your love And promise to give you mine I need no contract to bind our time We needn't share space or money or bills The only thing I ask we share with one another is the true love neither us can describe, though I've done my best here I know it's not quite right. **There will never exist a man I love as much as or the way I love you. So you have me unconditionally until our life together is through.**

So I say you say      differently Meaning the same thing      similarly I don't understand      Dont get me We're all like this      Aren't we?      I am waiting on you, you're waiting on me      Nothing will happen with our mentality.     I cry and fight and shy away you might come back      But you won't stay     So I sigh and mope another day Fleeing, fighting, ******* scared You'll hate me if you are dared I can't hide the bad parts For then, too I'll hide the good    I wouldn't leave you      Even if I could Should you want me around I'll show you my world And if you should         Laugh           Cry         Yell or       Abandon We'll waltz in slow motion Until we find the devotion To understand one another's                  Faults                 Habits             Desires and             Emotions
