Many seem to overlook the subtle charm that which simplicity possesses.
Look up sugar & Let your walls down. - Let my passion caress your mind, as you wear my poetry out on your skin. - Let these words induce salacious thoughts; with each adjective & every verb intensifying your desires. - Just lay down, as my love lifts you higher, and higher, until we reach the sun.

Adorn
“I'm sorry..” I've written this line over a thousand times, yet every déjà vu-filled renewal of it is a testament to your influence on me; an indication of my complete adoration for you. Forgive me, I'm still learning how to adjust to your love’s wild pirouettes while keeping my footing. Teach me.

Teach me.
Dear paper, I sincerely apologise for constantly coming to you for comfort, but you are the only form of calmness I have in the midst of this madness. No other embrace is as sweet as yours when my hands begin to shake and I seem to misplace my mind. You take me as I am, even with my daunting cloud of troubles, and hold my thoughts until I regain clarity. Sanity seems to be so elusive, slipping out of my grasp each time I clasp at it like a silk skinned eel. But here you are, as immovable as a rock, as honest as a blade, yet as fragile as these glass windows I peer out of for inspiration. Never have I felt so free while placing a piece of myself behind your bars. Tranquility is only a touch away when I’m with you. But once the waves of euphoria subside, and the hurdles placed in front of me become too towering-I see no other option. I load my clip full of thoughts into this 1.2mm ballpoint pen and pull the trigger, then watch it penetrate my heart and **** my anxiety. -Isaac.tanielu

Click-clack
Her eyes were tinted like the night sky while her heart was shaded in vulnerability and affliction, with a tinge of hope. Hopeful that I may be the one to repaint the semi-shattered walls that she had put up since the last cheap job. All she desired for was new wallpaper to cover the holes and cracks. All I wanted to do was break them down entirely.

If these walls could talk
A l o n e Nothing other than utter bliss As my eyelids begin to passionately kiss My count of sheep depletes as my imagination grows My mind starts to open as my eyes begin to close Slowly welcoming the air to it’s royal chambers in my lungs With a handful of dreams within grasp even without opposable thumbs I become N U M B Thoughts ricochet around in my head Until they land upon old wounds left untreated & now infected Visions of the past present a possible future Unparallel to those predicted by life's various tutors Contemplating Waiting Waiting Then I find myself- soaring high with complete balance Steering this craft with faith beside acting as my ballast Leaping from safety and falling towards uncertainty Diving into a sea full of clarity ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And so goes the plunge I submerge Pondering deep beyond previously set limits       Never once resurfacing Drowning in yet to be deciphered waves Thus ending the reign of the once realist schemer Replaced by the newly appointed lucid dreamer

Tell me what intrigues you. Simple task, right? Tell me. What. Intrigues. You. It could be something old or new One word, maybe two Whether it be why the sky isn't red Or why we don't bleed blue Tell me what intrigues you Maybe its how starfish chew Where the candles flame flew off to once grandpa blew Why a bubble pops when caressed too soon Or how you don't' need glasses to change your point of view Tell me what intrigues you Like how loving certain people can be considered taboo When will Mr.World Peace make his debut How despite being confined by concrete the flower still grew Or why we can continue to do unto but not undo Tell me what intrigues you Like what does money really do When change is supposedly due Maybe where our death leads us to Or why orphans are stuck playing guess who Tell me what intrigues you How windows and not lies are see through When does the Government plan to play duck/duck/truth Why color isn't synonymous to ivory hues Or why the biggest fast food supplier is actually disguised as the news Tell me, Tell me..  what is it that intrigues you?

What intrigues you?
Draw me nearer As the moon slowly seduces the tide How iron is lured by a magnets enticing charm   Like a moth to a flames irresistible pirouette Draw me nearer

"His love for her was like a beach, endless shores adorned by beautiful seashells. But once the tide seemed to fade out, he could do nothing but wait. So he sat.. and he waited.. patiently for its return."

Wave after wave
A I G A There.. always Straying never Like the fingers upon my hand-I can confidently count on them Like slow service at the counter-they keep me in line Just like the horizon to the Sun, the ground beneath my feet, or that baboon on pride rock-they elevate me, Time will fade away.... As will possessions... Memories won’t.. Ever.
