scaled your apartment in one of my favorite dresses
right before sundown
watched the wind billow the blue silk up my thighs,
parachute like
as i looked down,
several stories above your neighbors
(wonder if anyone looked up)
swallowed my human fear, counted the rungs
had opened our forties prematurely in your apartment
sure didn't make climbing any easier
that big map stretched out yawning across the bricks in your living room
spotted the city you were headed for
blame it on uninformed geography but didn't
realize you'd be completely across the country
(didn't tell you but
your cat kissed my nose from the bathroom counter
while i was peeing
and i thought it was one of the most endearing things
that probably ever happened to me)
got to your roof outta breath
all adrenaline and eyes
took off that big leather jacket lined with fleece,
wrapped it around our backs and sat
facing the city you'd be leaving and i'd be entertaining
watched the traffic crawl on the BQE
the sunset bored, you spilled your beer-
kept rolling in it innocently- ******
laughing, god i just
wanted to keep touching you
couldn't decide what to eat
both didn't wanna impose
neither of us could remember the name of that tree
littering pink slippery offspring in spring
for you and me to exclaim fondness over
you were the birth of a simplicity
it was so
terribly easy to be happy

I am what I am. As are you. we are our own beings. Own like owner. We make our own calls our own choices. We do what we want. Like the tide. We always come to the same conclusion. What we truly want. Take the time. We have it forever. Think twice. Whatever we want we always get in our head. But think twice for what you want  shouldn't feel what we really want. It's up to us to be us honest and carig and the people that we truly are. So be you have your morals dignity never give up but help others. Do right by the rest of. Us.

I love red wine and warm chords

emersed in a summer night
with the airy bliss of contentment
a mysterious and magical luminescence
surrounds

It's gazing at the stars
or speeding down city streets
with the windows down
screaming our favorite song

thick air and moonlight
is what we live on

I breathe into the

air

and it smells like

ecstasy -

like an old familiar

body -

that once        conspired

into my

                      skin - elevated

by                  heat,

into the          freezing winter.

And it dissipates,            

                              again.

You told me you do not want this life
I told you I will do my best to help
Inside I want to lock you in my heart
Where you will always be happy
You will shed no tears
Nothing will ever enter your veins
I can not imagine what you have seen
I can not imagine the journey you have been on
But I can imagine what it will be like when you are free
To roam inside my heart
My love will get you through
My love will do its best to rescue you
Take my heart and hand
And I will show that
My love will get you through this addiction
