I feel you
Settling perfectly in to my body-
Arms wrapped
Around my fragile frame.
A firm grasp,
An unfailing protection.

I feel you here
I sense your thoughts
Your longing to be so close
Your love transcending worries
The change the always comes
With an unspeakable joy
I feel you

I feel you now
Rivers of emotion
Of a passion so great
It cannot be contained
By the walls of your
Explosive heart
I feel you

And now I feel
The action-
The result of the great passion
Leaving your heart and mind
And throwing itself
On to a blank canvas!
I feel you here!
Chest pressed against mine,
Inseparable- our minds connect
We connect
And I can feel you

Summer left me
Sweet abandon
Ringing in the
Blustery autumn

Suffocated by the memories
Gasping for air
The pressure builds in my head
It is
Unbearable

There isn't a light
Driving through the never ending tunnel
A tunnel of turmoil
Sharp turns
Near misses
And love lost

Indiscernible screams escape
My muted mouth-
Silenced by ages of
Pain and hurt
So broken,
It cannot speak back anymore

Suffocation
Loss
Silence
Faced by impossible adversities
The battle rages,
But the war is not won

Out of sight
Out of mind
I step away from myself
And in to the abyss
Of my knowledge.
Swimming through the memories,
Playing them like film strips.
I fall out of reality,
Allowing the subconscious mind
To take over.
I step away from
The world,
And retreat inside
To a tranquil place where
Thoughts can be heard
Without distraction
Without calamity.
Taken below the surface
Of the iceberg and
Consumed with euphoric fantasy,
All I can hear is the laughter
Of a thousand voices
Like wind chimes in the breeze-
All proclaiming peace.
If I could stay forever
I would-
In this place
I am happy.

I was on my knees
I was crying out
But not a sound was heard
No one came to my rescue
They couldn't see-
See this agony
They couldn't know
They couldn't help.

*But then there was you.

But what does it really mean
When you say I love you?
Does it mean you
Feel?
Does it mean you
Think?
Love has not a definition,
But instead an assumption
That the other would
Love you back.
For love cannot truly be
One sided,
As then it is not love
It is merely the
Longing for love.
Love is an experience
Only shared between
Two.
Only felt in a pair
Seen within, and not alone
Love cannot be felt
Without two halves
Of one whole.
