I've danced with my demons
stripped away from my facade
down to my core
_________

******* all  the distress
my confidence peeled away
the narcissism scratching the surface
wallowing in the shadows of my depression
_______________

as I lie here
naked to the world
I ask you
will you lie with me
and Fly with my Angels
i lose myself
    looking
for a peek of you
     to breathe again
i apologize for the past
   you come and go like the seasons
just when i release my demons
   for some reason we meet at the same place

you’ll come again for the betrayals
     but meet my angels
i know i’ve hurt you in the past but i’m different now please give me another chance.
you’re having trouble deciding
to kiss me or to observe me
you forget the topic of conversation
every time you close your eyes
the images you see can’t be explained
so we settle for small talk

then you’ll describe to me your favorite color
that polar bear on the glacier
diving in, becoming one with the ocean
and mine,
that pink dress that twirled when you spun

we can’t control time
but i wish it could just slow down
because the nights spent with you
minutes seem to always come
a few seconds shy of sixty
and the little hand turns quite quickly
i need hours weeks and decades
to analyze the freckles on your face
or the pace at which you move your tongue
and exactly how it taste
maybe next time i’ll try to stay awake
unless you want to listen to the way i breathe
when i dream

i close my eyes, i wish to see what you see
but for now just bury the numb parts of you into the warm parts of me
I love Her
to see her is to love her
love no one but her
and love her forever
had we never loved so kindly
had we never met so blindly
we had never been broken-hearted

just be my joy and treasure
peace, enjoyment, love and pleasure
a kiss and then we sever
just goodbye forever.
i just can’t stop adoring you
you’re all i think about every hour on the hour

fresh love is the best love

the typa love that you can’t even think of the next love
cause there’s no love better than this love
it fits just like a glove, no need to shove
let the doves fly away
and we just get our way
till our last days
i love you
there’s a difference
when someone looks at you
with lust
and stares at you with compassion
what was once a whole
is now a fraction
there’s a yin but
the yang is absent

you’re the one that did it but
you can’t explain your actions
then act like
i’m overreacting

we love
we lust
we fuss
we fight

what happens in the dark
must come to light
i hate goodbyes
a hug and a kiss
just won’t suffice

there’s a difference between
love and attraction
a one night stand and
a bond that’s everlasting
you say you don’t believe
in vampires
but don’t you know that someone
that always comes in your darkest hour
and ***** the life out of you
unable to find the light
even while the sun shines so bright

you say you don’t believe
in werewolves
but don’t you all know that someone
that only comes around for that one night
when the night shines bright
changing with every breeze
growing more and more unrecognizable
every time you see them  

you say you don’t believe
but the proof is in front of you
only a few can actually see
because we are free
don’t let these thieves
steal everything you love in life
with savage ease

you say you don’t believe
just believe in yourself
Mirrors don't always appear
to mention a true reflection
of perfection.
