El Oh Vee Ee
In the house of God I lay, Waiting for my Lord to take me there. That place in which we are forbidden, But of it, are constantly aware. Dressed of faith in black and white, My savior takes my hand. He lays me on the altars' steps, And tells me his demands. "In this game we're about to play, You shall be thy sister. In beliefs, heart, soul, and blood, Bounded like a twister. In the eyes of the Lord now, I shall make you mine. We must sin here in ecstasy, Acting out our crime." I say my prayers, and close my eyes, Waiting for his blessings. A blessing cursed with wicked glee, And also me ********** As nun and priest we give ourselves, To not only God, but to each other, We're not really who we say we are, But I still love him as my brother.

In the House of God
This pain in my heart, I haven't felt it In a while. There is a breaking, tearing, surging Feeling in my chest From the thought of saying goodbye. Goodbye, only for a little while, But the heart doesn't keep track of time. The heart just feels what is now, And now, I'm saying goodbye. Goodbye, my love, and even though I'll see you soon, The heart doesn't know that, And it aches for the touch of you. Good luck, I'll miss you, And everyone else will too. You'll never be alone. The heart doesn't know that though, And it cries out for us from you. I love you honey, so much it hurts to say, But the heart doesn't know you're coming back So it hurts to say I love you, anyway. My heart knows I love you, and it knows you love me too. But it doesn't know when you'll be home, so it aches, And aches for you. _ '10

The Heart Doesn't Know
Black jeans, skin tight, Are wrapped around your legs. Oh how they show off your figure. And how it makes me want you In every way. Your body is hard, like stone, But your skin is soft and smooth. I touch and feel those hips of yours, and I'm gasping, Do you want me too? Your arms are sleek and fast, Your fists, so strong, break bones. The shadows define your muscle, And they make it so hard, For me to say no. Black hair, long and straight, Accents your chizzled face. Your eyes are pure seduction, And oh that dark, dark smirk, Makes me taste my fate. _ '10

Oh, how I wish I could get you back. They way you used to look, Act, Think, Smile. I wish I could get it back. The way you used to touch me, Kiss me, Hold me, Love me. How I want it all for me. I want you to hold me in your arms, like it used to be. I want to feel your soft, warm skin. And I want to kiss your pink, parted lips. As they whisper "I love you", In my ear. I miss the way it was. Such tenderness and passion. I felt so loved inside your arms. I never wanted to leave. Never once did I fear you, All there was was trust. But now, Now... All I can ever think about, Is how you used to be. _ '10

The Longing
Stop, no, what are you doing? I didn't want to be locked this way. My hands, cuffed, are already bruising. This is not how I wanted to play. The room is black, so why did you blind me? With a leather mask and a lock and a key. I'm somewhere so dark, they will never find me. And I'm wrapped so tight I'll never get free. Stop, no, don't leave me here! The door slams, and the key twists twice. Ensnared inside, I am locked in fear. In an infinite game of vulnerable vice. _ '10

Locked
When you look up at the ceiling, As you lay in your bed, What is it that you see? Do you see the cracked and peeling paint, The water damage stains, The tarnishes of time and neglect? What is it that you see as you stare upon your ceiling? It has been days since your gaze left the above. What are you looking for? Are you looking for that one little area, That is still pure in its color? That is free of spoil and coated in care? You lay there, motionless, staring. Searching, in your own creation, Agonizingly probing your aged canvas, In fear that that's all you'll ever see. Ever know. But you search, and you search, You scan every inch of that ceiling, In hopes of a small, blank slate of plaster, In which to smother yourself in. In which to call home. _ '10

Ceiling
Touch me, kiss me, love me, hate me. I want it all and I want more. Louder, harder, faster, stronger. I want it all and I want it longer. No breaks. No breather. Just touch me, pull me, throw me, Love me. All night, all day, every week, every way. I want you all to me, and I want you To take me. Push it baby, push it farther, Don't stop now, it's just getting harder. Grab me, squeeze me, feel me, hurt me. I want to feel like I feel inside. Hurt me, hurt me, hurt me. Love me. _ '10

Feel the Hurt
Mister, can you hear me? As I call to you in this nights smolder. Mister, please stop, I can't feel anything anymore. I lay here, in your arms, Struggling in the snow. Your heat is radiating, And I'm burning in your shadow. I push against your body, Responding with a crack, My head is now on fire, With red stains upon your lap. Mister, are you done? You've left me here in fear. The snow flakes fall as ashes, Melting in my tears. _ '10

Ash
Never have my eyes Seen so much sadness. Never have these eyes Seen so deeply into An enigma of finesse. Your bones are of silver, Destructive yet divine. Your strength from a father, Your safety aligned. Your blood is of iron, The veins are now rusted. But your heart is still running, With love now entrusted. An infant of ignorance, A child of sorrow. The young man of dreams, Your hopes for tomorrow. A meeting of chance, the southside and diner Such an innocent way, For love to acquire. But now the leaves have gone missing, The trees, filled with death Have blocked out the sunshine, And pierced the pearls chest. The young man of dreams With the cracked pearl in heart, Looks into the mountain And screams in the dark. But the fire never fades, and the heart, still pumping Flows fast and determined, To keep them from crumpling. The pearl cries softly, trapped in her mind. But strong hands protect her And kind words breathe, “time”. The white snowfall stops twice, The sweet spring sings again, And again. The long summer rains for two. But only once does the autumn wind, Bring October to its end. A young man of dreams, With the pearl in his hands, An inevitable season, With freedoms demand. Together, finale, The pearl is released. And over the mountain they kiss, Forever in peace. _ '08
