Paint my world in shades of blue
invade my dreams
come to me
in visions of color
wrapped in mystery
make your presence felt
I welcome you
you are
the muse of all artists
the birth of ideas
an illusion of pure wonder

and awe

Spirits lifted
when destinies shifted
when we broke free
courage is the key
our song is new
our sorrows are few
since we took a chance
and decided to dance
to a beat all our own
never heard before
we shape our own lives
break stereotypes
ignorant of judgment
we are now content
and pleased to say
we changed our fate

Eyes
that emit an effulgence
like two glassy orbs
wide and curious
cautious
catlike
flicker at any sudden movement
eyes like moonbeams
window to the soul
portals to the passion
within

Underneath
the veil
of perfection
she is vulnerable
without her decorous cacoon
she is
tender

You feel so warm
your touch is invitingly soft
makes me want
to lose myself

Reckless
wild
craving some fun
crazy with emotions
naive yet cruel
eager to create
eager to destroy
eager for rebellion
a riot of teenagers
energy and confusion
angst and oppression
this generation is sick
lazy and superficial
like a tv screen
electric and compellingly stupid

Look at me
to breath some life
into this heart of mine
your smile is contagious
tilt your head and laugh wildly
I will join in
share this moment

I won't pretend to have you
I know you aren't mine
but let me have this
and I'll be fine

I care too much
more than you know
can't bring myself to think
these feelings through
in fear of losing you
in realizing I'm too attached

no I'm not in love
fickle infatuations
don't  mean enough
I'll keep on dancing
you can keep on laughing
and I will join in
