Melancholy notes
strum in the back of my mind.
They croon for what could be,
this cool thing happening
with you and me.

And the distance between us
strokes every string of my heart,
& me,
a simple man,
wanting to release my wild horses,
cries against the wind.

His smile
Is precious
We're young
But not reckless
Sweet not sour
Love is developing
More and more
By the hour
Positive writing.

~          ~             ~

I'm watching the couple across the room
She's Asian and he's Indian
But race doesn't matter,
They're happy, everyone can see it

~          ~             ~

They sit together, side by side
Clicking on keyboards, the monitor alight,
They talk in hushed tones, lips pressed to ears
They're in love with each other, it's so very clear

She leans on his shoulder, breathes in his scent
He turns to face her, plants a kiss on her head
She sighs in contentment, this is their third year
He pulls her in closer to whisper in her ear

~          ~             ~

As I'm watching the couple
Who sits across the room
I find my mind wandering
To thoughts of you

~          ~             ~

When we sit together, side by side
Is there someone who watches, eyes alight
With our love, it sings loud, reaching the ears
Of those who watch us, making it clear

When I lean into your scent, I start to swoon
When you kiss me [anywhere], my heart beats a thousand x two
And I'll sigh because I'm happy, almost half a year
*I'll always love you darling, I just hope you can hear
*** like suicide's
always better
when the lights
go out.
It's a special blend
of leaves & spices,
the warmth it brings
goes down so smoothly.

While waiting for the mint
to take effect,
I travel on
an ethereal journey.

I fly to the
streets of Casablanca
& listen to tradition,
searching the faces
to find my kindred.

And when I find them there,
I close my eyes in comfort,
soothed inside
my wildest dreams,
my own special blend
of leaves & spices.
At first,
my words
enter my mind slowly,
giving me a chance
to formulate
a real-romance.
It's the way I like
to start a written-piece,
so thirsty to inspire,
to build,
a fire in you.

Then I begin
to speed up some,
to dribble hot-metaphors,
open closed doors.
Sometimes
my flow of diatribe
is disjointed,
but most times,
I'm perfectly clear,
flowing descriptive verse,
'cause nothing is worse
than an interruption
of the spirit.

Once I get started,
I build my thoughts
a lot quicker,
losing my mind,
the tempo drives
me totally insane,
to the very brink
of an explosion
of my soul.

It's all I can do
to hold back,
to go back to slowly,
trying to regulate
my escalated state
of these heightened-feelings.

When I try to slow
things down to a crawl,
it gives me a bit
more time
to think,
to think of ways that
play further
on your desirous-mind.

Then again,
the pace increases,
the mental-friction does heat up
& I am quickly overwhelmed,
driving you wild like this.

You should see
the smile on my face
when my rapid
spurts of sensuous thoughts
get penned to paper,
I give you
all of my heart.
I follow the
constellations above,
intrigued with images of you
I have emblazoned,
etched deeply into my mind.
They tempt me,
excite me to untold ecstasies
& I am lost,
remain high
on a mountain of sand,
crawling
on my hands and knees,
seeking a path to please you,
to release
the two of us,
to explode
into a new galaxy,
spiraling
in each other's arms.

I am driven
by your seduction,
you have stolen my soul
& I thought
you should,
might like to know
what you do to me.
