All this room to fill All these emotions to feel Emotions coordinate with velvet Sensitive to the touch Warm to the heart You can never pull the two apart I oughta keep a hold of my helmet Before I go falling for your stunts I won't stay waiting for the snow Instead I'll pray you'll meet me under this miseltoe I will always think your Gold even without a show All I ask is stop making me look like a fool You hold my hand like glass You kiss me with no pressure to the lips You make me think we won't last You have put me where I'm frozen at my hips

Velvet
I don't want to confuse you I want to consume you I don't want to imagine you I want to live you I don't want to follow you I want to walk with you I don't want to hear you I want to put my trust in you I don't want to give you up I want to lock you up I don't want to step away I want to make your days I don't want to hurt you I want to bury my love into your soul I don't want to hold you back I want to be the backbone to your back But if I cant 't have you I'll wait forever.

Glazed Eyes
I’d kiss those gypsy lips Let my fingers linger And slide down the side Of your comic book curvy hips I’d stare into your infinite eyes To peek at the perfect pool of pictures Piercing nature’s lifelike reflections Deeper and deeper into your being I’d listen to the harmony of your voice That silky soft folksy tone From tenor to baritone Full of emotion’s tremors I’d inhale your intoxicating scent Like lonely rose petals Floating away in separate directions Your body dripping droplets of a sweet sweaty smell I’d feel your breath Heated and gasping Passion elapsing and reforming Hours to minutes and sometimes only seconds I would take you in with every sense I had Wishing for more senses to love you with All the pressure building from within Blinding me and coming through you my inspiration

rejection
You're so bad for me But I seem to believe you're so good for me The one that's not afraid to hurt me is the one I want for me. I run from you when I'm hurt by you but run to you when I am beat down by the world Your the one I can't stand the most Your the one I love the most

Sleepless Nights
I want you. All of you. Hands through my hair. Lips everywhere. Consume me. Ruin me.

You looked at me like I was the world And you were just truly seeing it For the first time. And after that look I knew I would spend the rest of my life Searching for someone who could Make me feel that way again.

the look you gave me
The biggest mistake you can make is thinking romantic love is the only type that hurts. Because a friend's judgmental looks can feel like a stab in the gut, a parent's disapproval could make you feel worthless, and a siblings backhanded compliment can feel like a smack in the face. No matter what kind of love it is, you open yourself up to that person. And as with any kind of love, it is those people who can hurt you the most. Loving people is exhausting. And loosing friends you once loved can hurt more than anything else in the world.

Love
What is Love? Love is October, yes the season fall is what defines Love.. I miss you. I really miss the fall with you, and oh how I miss how your nose turns red when it gets chilly out and how your face turns so pale and you can see all the aspects of your eyes, how your lips get chapped at the end of the year, and how when you hold my hand in the cold, I miss how your hand fits right into mine and how your numb fingertips lingered around my hand so softly.. i miss you pulling me close to stay warm, oh how I miss sitting on the front porch in your rocking chairs, and taking you under that one big tree at your old house on Halloween Night and kissing you softly.. I miss the smell of your hair when you haven't washed it, the way you bite your fingernails. Everything good happens in the fall, i guess that why i latched onto you in September of 2008, because you're my one and only soul mate.

Love is October
she was a poet, and he was her pen. in him, she always found words to write, songs to sing, thoughts to think. he'd smile, and kiss her softly, and say, "write me a poem." and she would. she'd put poe, and whitman, and shakespeare to shame, and she'd write a poem that made his eyes water. she'd compare him to a rose with no thorns, a book with no end, a world with no poverty -- the things we all wish for, but can never attain. // he asked her one day, "what am i?" and so she picked up her pen, and began the usual: *you are the shining sun after a hurricane, with rays that open the eyes of the blind.* but he stopped her after those two lines, and said that this time, he didn't want any metaphors, or similes, or analogies. he wanted the truth. and so on that night, as he slept, the poet picked up her pen, and she wrote. she wrote, then thought better of it, then started over again, and this cycle continued well into the early hours of the morning, until suddenly, she wrote, frantic, *if i can't love you for what you really are, have i ever really loved you at all?* this, too, she thought better of, condemning it to the trash. the next morning the poet was gone, her final work a mere two words: i'm sorry. (a.m.)
