lluvia de abril

I wish there was
a metaphor
for that freckle
on your face
and the scar
on your right knee

I wish
that I could capture you
in a metaphor
or three

for I'd dedicate just one
to the way
you look at me

then encapsulate
your voice
and the way it folds love meek
in the warmth
of your embrace
and the power of your grin

the third I would
set free
in the spirit
of your kiss
and the promises
it keeps, a tomorrow
in the spring

But there is no such a metaphor
I have searched
so far and wide
no verse, no word or rhyme
you are simply
the one metaphor
that is impossible to write

set so deeply
in the mind
so much deeper
in the heart

You are the pen that drives my hand as I sit down to write on a crisp December night

The Proposal*

What shall I say
to the promise of bright moons?

Your lips, I never could refuse

And to your voice at 3:00 am
what shall I say?

You are better at this game
I’ve lost to you, my heart concedes

Is that a kiss that claims my
skin, my thoughts, the me?

Yes...yes...yes

I shall say yes to moonlit nights
so long as you propose
a kiss for every star

I will accept, as you propose
the moon is at my feet and always
bright at night

I shall say yes
my knight at dawn
yet
will you then
stay the night?

Dawn is a kiss, but
for me, for me
sunrise is in your eyes

and the world
the world will always be
for you to save
stay

On the night he stayed and built a bridge from the hues of moonlight into the calm of dawn and rays of sun.

a kiss of breath

This delight,
To inhale twilight.
Ride the nightlight to the stars.

To kiss a breath within
each moment
Free from introspection,
doubt and regrets.
It is here, I yearn to dwell.

No fear of neglect.
No fear of offense.
No fear of fear.

Yet, ever vigil,
to a slight variance of mood.
Of circumstance.
Of changes that determine
outcomes and future.

Fear of loss.
Fear of rejection.
Fear of fear.

I succomb to this perception.
Live in accordance
within the rules and structure
that appear to maintain order
to each of my days

Yet I await, with anticipation...
To kiss a breath within
each moment

This delight.
To inhale twilight.
Ride the nightlight to the stars

Helen

Her Husband, His Wife

He pinned her up
against the wall
making sure
She wouldn't fall
She held on tight
to her wishes
and her scream
all the while
hoping
it wasn't a dream
He carried her
to the counter top
and whispered to her
I can not stop
I never want to stop
I will never be done
with my only one
She inhales his kisses
and his sighs
She feeds her desires
into his eyes
She lays pinned
upon a counter top
and breathes into him
*I hope you never stop

I wonder

I wonder why it took some time to meet you,I wonder why I love you so much, you made me realize how good it is to have a fiancer like you.

I was thirsty you gave me water,I was hungry you gave me food , I wanted loyality you extended it to respect, I was crying for love and you gave me heart,my charity based on you, I couldn't be the men without you, you showed me that out Of the billion rotten eggs you are the freshly one and so I could hold you careful because I love you and I wonder as you are.

Out of the cranches you walked with in your life I will be the best cranches that will keep you strong and on my chest you will be comfortable, in my arms you will feel its warmth,like the ocean that is ever lasting and in me we will bear an internal rhododendrons

honey dew,perfectly sure I will die with you

Wishes

I came upon an old stone wishing well
Way out beyond my dream time
Just past the hour that never quite Strikes
So I flipped my coin and tossed it so
Rainbow hues and no where else to go
I wished for love to hold me close
Closer still than I ever did know
I wished for arms to Wrap me tight
All through the winter nights
I wished for freedom
I wished for joy
My wish it splashed upon the fountains floor
And then I wished a little more
I wished for hope
I wished for faith
For without these two
I'd fall from grace
With out trust there is no love
No devine intervention from above
