the
Light in You:
brimming (my) heart
imprinting my (soul) with magic
feelings only dreams (can) paint; i am
soon subsumed by the (Light) of your rays
(the moon) dances behind your eyes
you are (all i)ts bloom and rise
with you there's no (need)
for a clever disgu(is)e
i will meet (You)
on the other
side|
my soul can light the moon;
all i need is you

Walking on water entrapped within a snow globe of ones imagination
With one slight tilt
You stumble and fall
Completely being surrounded by water...

You will always float back to the top
Learn from your mistakes
                    And
Eventually will be a top the water once again
Walking to your dreams
Spinning around the snow globe that we call
                    LIFE

Is it that you forget me,
Or is it you try to ignore;
Is it that you think I'm already better,
Or is it that you think I am a lost cause?

I have been here countless times already,
Yet none still ease the pain;
Qualms of grief and guilt,
Screams of help but none so inviting;

I'm still in this mess,
I'm sorry for dragging you in;
But I have no one else to go to;
No one wants to stay.

I just hope I pass by your thoughts,
Reminisce the pain,
How we hurt together,
Unknowingly but with consent.

Then again I guess I hurt you more,
Maybe that's why you would not rather.
I guess it's my fault but I still need you;
Please don't forget to remember.
I don't hate you
It's just that
I wish you do remember me.
It hurts to see
Without a word
I miss you and I want you so bad
But I'm scared I'll hurt you more
But I'm so tired of hurting alone
This is foR you.

birds of the same disposition*
all gathering in a collective band
one feather is their rendition

they'll always be of this strand
never deviating at anytime
all gathering in a collective band

everyone of them an akin dime
minted by the exacting coin press
never deviating at anytime

they're keeping a single address
companions of an only kind  
minted by the exacting coin press

none are really hard to find
assembling neath a unified wing
companions of an only kind

can you hear the old adage sing
assembling neath a unified wing
birds of the same disposition
*one feather is their rendition

Perfect illusion
Lurking in the mirror
Painted face
Distorted picture
Wipe off your makeup
Lift your head
Now your true beauty
Shines like sunbeams
When you see you
As you really are
The beauty lies within yourself
When the perfect illusion
Is deep inside the layers of the mirror
Which distorts your true self

Pleasant words
I must insist
Soothing softly
Vibrant kiss'
Deep warm touches
Flesh to soul
l will love you
From head to toe
Beneath the surfaces
Your secret lies
Between the sheets
Line by line

I hate to read
I love to write
Still I stopped to read
Your poem last night
It gave me quivers
It gave me fright
Flesh and blood
A window of sight
Into your visions
Subliminal crimes
Oh how wicked
Your moment in time

I hate to read
I love to write
But who will survive
On this poetry sight

Do you feel what I feel?

When you touch me,
Do you hear my sharp intake of breath
The way I shudder beneath your fingertips

When you're not looking,
Do you feel my eyes on you
The look of adoration and admiration

When you talk to me,
Do you notice how I catch every word
Your conversation never bores me

When you kiss me,
Do you feel me gravitate towards you
As if there was distance between us

When we're together,
Do you know I love you?
I love you.

Do you know what I know?
You’re a wonderful human being
Angry, but with a heart full of love.
Mutual hearts together
Giving and giving
The gift of your love neverending

And who am I?
I’m the lucky girl.

I have no voice
I am an echo
In the frequency
Of the soul
No need for ear
Or even breath
That breathe
The truth of old
Simple sound
Bounced around
As it fades
And reappears
Hear me not
In the physical
Repeat and leave
Me here
