Journey

Journey

Just words on a scrap of paper
Explicit, and says I’d like to
A reply same as before
Explicit, but says I’d like to too

A few public defacing to grab your attention
Minute in scale, and portrays that I like you
A retort of appreciation, a few attempts of your own
Cute indeed with an invite that says I like you too

With our best face’s forward, we make first contact
Small talk and gentle stares that say I want to
Sand, sea, and night, a storybook embrace
A salty taste in the air that says you want to too

Rendezvous and stolen kisses
Early morning to late night wishes, we had to
First time so right, incents and candlelight
Taste so good, and felt so tender. Skin to skin we had to

From a fling t a ring, our souls integrated
We dreamed so well together, I love you
As we relived our best moment, our child came to be
I rush to spoil you and here you say I love you too

Let's Converse

Lets Converse

You thrive on the light because
You know that you make the skies darker
You impale the world with your touch
Disfiguring a man with the slightest glance
I challenge your heart to discourage me because
I recognize your brilliance
I can see you can trample egos
By now you should know my persistence
You tell me who you are
This is more than the genders desire
I am buffoon by my own urges
But I must let you know what I see
I see you eyes as they stand out of a silhouette of passion,
A very piercing stare
Your footprints compare to that of your lips,
Much like the petals of a rose you might kiss
I watch you; to a man you might cause the world to spin
But I stand tall in the crowd with my arms raised,” you win”
Because you bring the quenching that would smother the sun,
You’re something of an obscured revelation.

Moment

Moment
Too many changes
But solutions are slow to be found
Expectations are too high for reasons
And time passes to fast to accommodate the task at hand
Should I bend the boundaries and
Plea for salvation to hurry and assist
Maybe I’ll insist to exit on my cue
That is why I call upon you
Can you guide this wonderer to an oasis?
Maybe you can point to a place where I can fish
My heart devours the loneliness of the mundane
Day to day
But in your arms to the end is where I lay
Bidding farewell to puddles on a rainy day
My lust paved the road for our emotional reward.

YOU CAN BE

You can be

You can be the whim
The lucky guess I take that leads to the right path
You can be the drive
The force that pushes me to finish the task
You can be the will
The magnet in me that attracts to your needs
You can be the goodness
The flavor and taste of the sweets on which I feed
You can be the seed
The inception from which I sprout my dreams
You can bet he muse
The plume that moves and expresses my moods
You can be the splint
The brace that mends my concentrations break
You can be the shore
The wave of ****** that leaves me drowned in your wake
You can be the home
The Four walls and roof that shelter
You can be the fabric
The hemmed time that holds the space we share together
You can be the earth
The ground that is firms that steady my pace
You can be just you
The all of the above that took my breath away.

YOU ARE MY

You are my

You are my top of the world
The steepest climb for the most wonderful reward
Your my northern skies and my sunny optimism
A place I visit when things get too hard

You are my down to earth
The road I traverse for the most wonderful view
Your my solid ground and stable embrace
A place that I can sit to relax and renew

You are my house and home
The place I return to for the most wonderful comforts
Your my weight baring walls and daily indulgence
A place where I know my self worth

CONCEPTION ADORE

CONCEPTION ADORE

Love from two conceived then born
Nurtured and adorned
Raised and cared for
Nestled close to the heart
Embraced by two
Given the tools to achieve and succeed
With loves first breath, in it we believe
Parenting this love, protecting this love
Watching it blossom and grow
We age with this love
Feel rage with this love
Turn gray with this love
Then pass away, yet it remains
Love between two souls
Remembered by those here today
Some days we may be led astray
Those distractions a necessity for us to evolve
Problems in the cradle we resolve
Under a watch full eye
Conflicts are dissolved
Loyal to where we stand
Son of a soldier, son of a man
Defender of my beloved woman

UNLIKELY FRIENDS

UNLIKELY FRIENDS

Your scent tends to linger around me
The words from your sentences can be astounding
But normally humorous
Very few of us
Know exactly what the two of us
Connect on
Agree on
Or even see eye to eye
Converse, and sleep on
We randomly crossed one another
With a "Hi and Bye"
Like night fall and sunrise
While
My sarcasm is sinister like clouds in the night sky
The gutters of my mind
Are
Like the gutters of my upbringings
Yet still I'm a petal
The depth of your eyes
Are
Brilliant like the depths of your mind
But stubborn like the oldest metals
Your style is so wild
While mine is conserved
A canvas scratched and scarred
To make a painting so disturbed
Yet it hangs on the wall
