Our words f a d e
Faster than our footprints in the snow

My eyes twitch when I'm sad
Before the tears flood down my porcelain skin
I can tell you were sad as well
Because you couldn't look me in the eyes
You distracted yourself
And your guilty conscience
The sound of your voice haunts my thoughts
While my smile is all you can think about
You told so many lies, big and little lies.

We're in the bathtub
Soaking our tired bones

We're so close to one another
Melting away the anxiety
And trying to face the fear that holds us back

God, I like you
Why can't I tell you?

The candles are burning and our skin is touching
The music is playing as you come closer

You kiss my cheek and I run the hot water
We lie next to each other, our bodies pure and bare
We fall asleep leaving the negative thoughts outside the door.

A Rose

Delicate and pretty
You are
A stunning creation
An intricate rose
Developed to perfection by Mother nature
A beauty for the eye to capture
Bold, in full bloom you rapture
Petals silky soft like gentle kisses
Colours of pink sunset skies
A perfume so lovely and devine
Angels sing as I breathe you in
Shakespeare wisely noted,
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet"
This is true, you'd still be a treat
You never defeat
Your confidence brims
As you grin a knowing grin
Your looks may entice them in
But camouflaged armour protects you within

Starfire
As the sparkling water falls down
My love for you grows stronger by the minute

But when the sparkling water flows upwards
My love for you dies by the minute

Till there's nothing left
