a captive of love
Brian Jul 2019
the image of love is diluted by lust
we yearn for the feeling of another’s
touch
thriving in the unfamiliar territory of feeling
the validation of others is where we find our meaning
the unpredictability of an emotional connection
stuck in a relationship, seeking her attention
but yet we find it so attractive
stuck as a prisoner to love, an eternal captive

to love again
Brian Jul 2019
i remember that night where it was just you and i
driving by the beach under the starlit sky
the moon and stars i saw in your eyes
the evening breeze kissing your cheeks
our song started playing
drowning the noise of the night
i looked over at you, and I fell in love again
the world is full of ups and downs, and some things we cannot change
your love was the sun the shined for a thousand days
but sometimes the most expensive things cannot be bought
your smile was a constellation
in the galaxy of my life
your love was the greatest adventure
the moments we shared i will always treasure
a night where love was in the air, and you were it’s disguise
oh, how much i’d give for you to be mine again
but even the most beautiful of things must have an end

an unattainable world
Brian Jul 2019
the unattainable is what we seek to take
we desire the things we can’t touch
the lips we cannot taste
we seek attention in online connections
searching throughout this social media infection
a world full of color, but it’s people are black and white
we strive for the drop of color that paints the corners of our lives
to love is to allow the world to be the canvas
and your dreams to be the paintbrush that colors the skies

— The End —
