It's the swift wind that caresses your shoulders
and leaves your hair standing
An excitement you can't quite decipher
Whether good or weather bad

A voice that plays tricks
and flicks the light in your attic
The voice of god or fellow man?
Judgment day or just a scare?

Hair raising sensation
Invokes a beast that wishes to feast
and lusts for flesh
A dream where bodies mesh
and sweat
As heat rises and falls
Repetitiously
A gentle brush of lips
As hips dip
and limbs twitch
Overwhelmed by a pleasure haze
Minds drift and displace
Launched to a higher place
Where souls intertwine and reach like vine
To mountains of tremendous energy
Lovingly exploring the mystery
In an act to create and share life

If only today I could meet your gaze
and wrap you in my arms
Caressing the dangers of passion and love
For this is much more than lust
I crave the risk that will follow your kiss
The meaning that reins from your lips
and grips me
Despite the distance
Courageously I hunt for thee
Throwing caution to the wind
As my head spins
Ready to dive in

To exhaust a point to a place where there is no more wonder
Only sweat blood and tears
Pushing vigorously forward
Despite all fear and what has been told
Feeling bold

Kneading this knot
Till it unfolds
To keep movement
with less pain
To gain the bread

Working to maintain a life
Now spent
In search of some kind of meaning for it

Day in and day out
Repetitious routines
Fighting to find some kind of happiness
Found or so it seemed

Knowing that much of what we hold
is never held
So much is borrowed
For temporary spells

Fooling ourselves

Fallen she screamed at the disgrace she faced
and at all those terrible things she couldn't change
Remembering sharp if onlys and could've beens
Presently watching time slip through her fingers
The price of one more lesson learned
One more burn
One more unspeakable discern
To derail or sink the remains of a ride stocked full of
lofty declarations and false pride
As she wrenched toward the sky questioning why
All feeling died
and from the ashes something sinister was born

I tied my tongue
and the knot salivated with anticipation
My lips twitched
as I fell mute and desperate for expression
An ache grew with every passing thought of you
Wanting to reach so badly forced to cut off my arms
I couldn't trust my needy hands
Though I try I can not silence my mind nor stop it from
entertaining words and plays in which you star
If only I hadn't learned your name

I need you here so you can see me
I want you close so you can feel me
I'd love the opportunity to reject you
To spring my fiery wrath upon you

Slaying every misconception
In a way that leaves you in deep reflection
As I giggle with the warmth of a child
After while crocodile
