I read poetry by candle light,
It won't be wrong,
But if I might,

Stay here long,
Stay here bright.
Be my song,
Be my night.

You look to her,
And see perfection.

You look to me
And see a canvas
Covered with the wrong strokes
And dried paint
Of ages ago.
BDR Apr 2014
I miss your lips

On me

Like rain

On window panes

Like leaves

On a winters day

Like the lighting on your skin

When it's against me,

Ready to win.

I can't tell,

If you'd love to see me

And show me around,

Or if you'd prefer to have me

On the ground.

I see her in everything

In every color in the trees

As branches point to their leaves

In every feel through the wind

When the race begins

In every splash from the ocean

When coming home is always its first devotion.



I see her when I don't see anything else

When the lights dim

In quiet rooms of vintage trim

When the shadows dance and spin

Gracefully throwing out the images from within.

It feels as if it could just stop,
in any given moment
I could combust
explode
fall
lose it all,
and yet
all I'd want to do
is tell you
how much
I just
love you.

It is like eating

The wax of a candle.

Expecting for it to

Burn you,

But it is only leaving

Your mouth dry,

And calling

To be

Removed.
Just leave the candle light lit.

Sleeping by your side
Comforts my all
Whispering sweet nothings
From the texture of our souls

"I love you,
so much"

"I love you too"

I can breathe,
And my heart falls into you.

Swords make the men yield
On a desolate field
With no vision but the night
Careful not to crawl upon those individual frights

Those that say,
To save it for a better day
Underestimate the courage
You bring with just one motive

Standing upon the crowd
Chanting ever so loud
In the name of noble men
Who thrive for the ambition again

Darting with arms full,
"They won't escape the bull!"
It aviated across grassy paths
To show all those who turn the roaring wrath

But such of a warrior you stood,
Did what no man could
And flushed the darkness into its ditch
Only showing the light of it

Of all the strength and love that posses your heart
This war was not seen from the start
Though, you gathered the men
Gracefully,
Lending your hand to the fallen friend

Wars come and go,
But this is what you shall always know:

You are the fire
Igniting a homes ablaze even higher

You are the air
Having your essence everywhere

You are the water
Flowing freely through all slaughter

You are the Earth
The honor which gives our lives all of its worth

Though elemental creations do not suffice,
The mastery of the beautiful bull within you,
From morning
To night.
I asked him if he could tell me his three favorites words. I used them all to describe him.

I just want to
scream
cry
shout
punch and
tear something apart..

All into one.

I want to
stand
on top of a mountain
and do the same
and if not,
I'd just
stand
still
and laugh all about it..

All into one.
I'm only human.
BDR Apr 2014
I get the feeling
In the pit of my stomach,
It's here.

I get the feeling
In the pit of my stomach,
I don't need to fear.

I get the feeling
In the pit of my stomach,
This is going to last for years.
BDR Apr 2014
Sleep, my love,
For the night has come
Rest your eyes
Unwind

Softly covered from head to toe
I sent a kiss with what I know,
Arms openly inviting
Closing up ever so tightly,
And feeling your infinite warmth,
All around me.
BDR Apr 2014
I have not been alive long enough to see it all,
I have not gone to the extreme of life and death with the paths I have chose

But that does not make me less of anything
That does not mean I do not live the life that I was given by this infinite universe
I love and cherish and enjoy and laugh and smile and cry and scream and become silent

I am human
The bittersweet discovery of any era
We are human,
With conscience and non conscience minds
We go about changing and unchanging
Year after year there's something
Something new
Something drastic
Something to remember
Or nothing at all..
BDR Apr 2014
Be like water.
Still and calm as a pond.
Strong and harsh as a storm.

Even when it all feels like mud.
I'm going through a hard time right now, but sometimes words will never suffice.

— The End —
