I wish I could write forever,
I wish my thoughts
          never stopped thinking in rhymes,
          never stopped counting syllables,
          never stopped making metaphors.
I want to be the poem,
I want to be the art.

Reading in the grass,
my head resting on your chest,
one hand in my hair,
my head rises and falls,
as your lungs take in my scent.

You put the book down,
roll us over on our side,
I pull the grass out of your hair,
your hand falls down the length
of my spine.

No distractions,
just me and you,
my body against yours,
we've nothing better to do.

Your hand wanders under my shirt,
now it finds my breast,
my face buried in your neck
and I lose my breath.

I'm under you now,
your eyes wild,
hair's a mess,
I can feel your heart beat with mine,
like they will jump right out of their chest.

The heat of the sun keeps
our bare bodies warm,
and your teasing lips leave
me begging for more.

The scent of the flowers
(or is it just you?),
sends me to the most euphoric places
I never before knew.

Now i'm in control,
couldn't wait any longer,
you deserve to be pleasured,
lay you gently on your back,
now you're all mine to forever treasure.

Kissing the parts of you that you despise most,
letting you know just how beautiful
you truly are,
wordlessly caressing your soft skin,
my lips moving down,
your heart caving in.

You let out a sigh,
a breath of fresh air,
I know you want more,
your muscles tense,
now i'm sure.

As far down as I'll go,
I look up for approval,
your eyes look longing,
your body's agreeing.

I lower my head to your sweetest scent,
i'm hungry, my heart's been starving,
you're feeding my love.

Your body, it shakes,
reacting under mine,
your muscles releasing the darkness,
allowing the light.

My lips find yours,
a breathless, 'I love you'
comes in through my teeth,

nothing left but the fluttering
of butterfly wings in our ears
and the hum of two heartbeats
releasing lovers' fears.

no sleep at night
      with you breathing
slowly by my side,

I have to leave the bed
      to control myself and
steady the thoughts in my head.

5:32 a.m; walk outside
      to the mist consumed
field,

thinking i'm alone,
      you sneak up behind me,
taking my hand;
      our fingers now sealed.

your hair catches in the breeze,
      my face brushed with your scent,
everything your presence brings
      puts me at ease.

your hand moving up,
      you pull my face in,
my lips on yours;

      first kiss with this dawn's
      mist as our only witness.

look through the mirror,
     into my soul, not
just a body,
     not just a mold.
                 inside is the universe,
                 the stars in the sky,
                 only beauty can come
                 from your dark mind.
your heart may be broken,
     mine may be too,
together we'll conquer,
     our demons will lose.
                   take my hand, darling,
          fate brought us here today,
     to fight the same battles
before it's too late.

don't leave me in
           the morning,
stay forever.
           you are my everything.
my world,
           my universe.

i cannot see the stars in the city,
and it reminds me that like the stars,
you are also gone.
