I am dawn itself
so dark and so hopeful, I'm
only beginning
Looking into your eyes-
I fall
Looking at your heart-
In love
Looking at a beautiful sunset-
With you
Wishing I was with you-
More and more
Hoping to be together-
*Every single day
August 24, 2016.
I love you, sweetheart.
I am awake  to life
opening my heart
loving fiercely
In the deepest part of the sea,
The sky brings away the glee.
You are the cry that I be,
And the hope that has flee.

As wine I have treasured,
Fragile glasses against pressure,
You are the time I never measured,
And the pain of simple gesture.

Of tongue that has tangled,
I feel as if, strangled.
The fire always rattled,
And yet you haven't prattled.

At the brim of the ocean depths,
The stars cry for the sky, of its death.
Swaying above the panting waves,
You grab on me as I sink below.
To my right
My spirit dances through faded expressions in and out of time.
Leaving my heart with an astounding sense of freedom.
No longer hinged
Searching of ways to destroy misery
I can see the flowers blooming under tiptoed footsteps
Carrying panic filled waves out to sea.



However I am drawn to the left,
My head oh so slightly tilts
In the direction where the wind blows fast
And my true being is something that cannot be grasped
Down it pours
These tears of mine begin to hit the floor
Lighting fills the sky
My body freezes
As I can feel a young life drifting on by
The closer the touch
The stronger the thoughts come
I brush it off,
And say something under the lines of “Cross Roads*”

Phia
I don't want kisses on the lips.
Kiss my forehead instead.
I don't want movie dates
I want walks in the rain.
I want nights on the couch
Curled up with you.
Reading poetry
And drinking tea.
