Kissing
Francisco DH Feb 2014
“I want to kiss you right now”
I said.
He let his phone slip into his pocket
And he reached for my hand.
He pulled me in close and I could
Smell the cologne.
A hint of Old Spice clouded my judgment
Sent my all questions to the back
Of my mind. His lips found mine
And for a split second
I died.
My heart could not function
Properly causing a sensation
Of peace to surround me.
“Oh ****”
I said.
My lips tasted love’s sweetness
Then
We pulled apart.
I
Wanted more.
He wanted more.
We both wanted more.
My face could not
Contain my smile
And he smiled back.
Kissing him
Kissing me
Kissing.

Changing Course II
Francisco DH Feb 2014
And it wasn’t that I fell out of love.
Every so often the wings of butterflies graze
Against the veins, plucking them to match my heart’s tongue tied tempo
No, I never fell out love.

And it wasn’t that I lost interest.
My mind’s compelled to acknowledge  
The thoughts were he resides, to nervously manage a smile, to sheepishly look away.
No, I never lost interest.

The memories involving him detach from their tree
Fall as the branches try to grasp them, to have them reattached.
His name is on the lips of the wind and I listen as it brushes me aside,
feeling as if not the wind but he who brushes me aside.

With the knowledge of having to refrain from intimately knowing him
I see another path present itself in my wake
And my heart, adventurous at its heart, walks down the unknown.

The new path bears a resemblance so striking
They could be twins.
The butterflies inhabit the area
My mind smiles with the nerves
And yet,
They differ.

The unknown is daunting
A menace
Something to greet with open arms
Only to embrace with a dagger ready to eliminate the threat
And yet
I will take it step by step
Heartbeat by heartbeat.

Boy or girl? II
Francisco DH Feb 2014
“Are you the boy? Or, Are you the girl?”
Society has a notion that being gay
(In the sense of the new translation of the word)
One must be the “boy” while the other the “girl”
As if masculinity cannot be share by both parties as well femininity.
But in the case of myself
In truth a girl will create a wedge in the relationship if not terminate it
For I rather, (and I hope he agrees), there be two guys.

"Sin is a powerful word"
Francisco DH Feb 2014
Sin is a powerful word
Taking Love by the neck
Wringing it till it's dead
Grabbing it by it's feet
While it cuts off the head.
Paralyzing it with fear
then shoots it with lead
Hangs it invertly
To let blood be shed
Sin is a powerful word
When Sin is involved
Love is no longer there
Wrote this a long while back

Teenage Rant
Francisco DH Feb 2014
You go and take control of every aspect of my life
You tell me where to go and dictate what's wrong and what's right
But Now I think I've had enough
you gave that one final shove
You can't tell me who to love.

SHUT UP! Take your verses
Shove them in your purse and
Leave me the hell alone
I don't give a **** This is my soul.
Feeling all types of way early this morning .-.

And I have kept the drawn rose
in a book i barely open.
But today marks a year since its creation
so i opened the book and light revealed the drawn rose.
with a swift gesture i closed the book.
A year it has been but why does it still hurt?

The Holocaust
Francisco DH Feb 2014
The holocaust was a terrible catastrophe
As if you had a flea
Gnawing your flesh causing you to bleed.

The Germany Terrain
,With ****** to blame,
contained many bones
of the charged disdained.

How can so many be tried with no valid jury?
Human beings drained so effortlessly , fluidly
from their homes.

The culprits are so quick to adhere
To their innocence and ignorance
The "I didn't Know" and " I had fear"

The flea bit and gnawed
Blood trickled
Stained the pages of our history.

Do we dare to let more fleas gnaw?
Trying to help my bro with Homework this is a mesh of mine and his :D

In The Woods...
Francisco DH Feb 2014
And then I heard the wind
Treading lightly through the woods.
It spoke with a somber tone
"Leave with not an eye looking back."

In These Woods
Francisco DH Feb 2014
In these woods,
Where the light
and shadows weave in out the leaves,
I found a boy.

"Forgive me"
Francisco DH Feb 2014
Forgive me.
The burden you cradle in your arms which are stretched out in front of you.
The blur in the picture you frame on the wall hopefully overlooked.
Forgive me.

The whisper
Francisco DH Feb 2014
And then I heard a whisper in the night
One word was all I heard
"Freedom"
A concept I have yet to learn.

I whispered back
"What of it?"
but the whisper was already gone.

I alone must understand "freedom"

Friday Night Out
Francisco DH Feb 2014
The night was hazed with strobe lights
    Blinding faces of those 'round.
Bowling ***** were roaring their way
     Proclaim war against the pins
Drinks were downed with unquenchable thirst
       One after another
The music seeped through the floors, walls, and chairs
      Causing them to try and shake it out
        Only to be dancing with the rest
And then I became a blurred face
       A captain of war
          A consumer of happiness
              A soul moved by vibrations in the air.
                            On a Friday.

I closed my eyes

Parent to Child
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Listen my Child,
Don't rush out of love with a quick step
As you hold your heart by the strings
For you may get entangled and fall
all over again.
Francisco DH Jan 2014
The window was locked
as if to confine my whispers  
to my room
so they would not find him
and let him know
That
I
Love
Him.
Just Another poem for a story I am thinking about

Circulating Thoughts
Francisco DH Jan 2014
And I whispered
   The thoughts
      that my heart
         kept circulating
             through my head.
               The night inhaled
                   Letting the thoughts
                      Circulate in the air
                         Till it let them leave into the night

The Fall
Francisco DH Jan 2014
And then I fell.

The taste of love's gravel
is bitter and hard
Mixed with the shards
Of my heart.

I have no recollection of when I fell
or when I  landed on such hard reality.
I rather not know.

The fall has no words
to describe it.
It was quick
Like the click of a pen
Stabbing at a piece of paper
as you confess "L-O-V-E" with the ink
getting it all over your hands.
The flash of a camera
capturing the slight movement, movement
of your eyes shifting your gaze to his hands.
Like an on coming truck
Colliding with your advancements towards him
Scattering your emotions
leaving you dazed and afraid.
Like the last heartbeat your heart can muster
before it starts to flat-line
but to save yourself
your heart begins to beat for another.


I fell
But now it's time to get up.
The Fall is over.

The Winter Air

As the winter air bites my fingers
      I take in a breath.
Maybe the snow dusted air
     Will freeze the pain?

Moved On
Francisco DH Jan 2014
When the lyrics of a song
   Carry not a meaning
        When the symbolism of the melody
              Starts to fade into the notes.
                      When a song is just that a song
                             You've Moved on.
                                                ....But the love is still there

Holding on
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Holding onto the rope
     Rope fibers tear at my skin.
I kick my feet and try to hoist myself
      Fatigue weighs me down.
What lies below is nothing but a dark entity
     Waiting to consume
       My
        Heart.

Sanity
Francisco DH Jan 2014
I lost my sanity long ago
If I were to search it would be in vain
for it has been swept away
by the broom of Time.

Losing ones sanity
The found seem lost
while the lost
are merely on the brink of a river
that could carry them to nothing.

A rain drop is a tear from the devils
As they try to save what little inhumanity there is left.
A wind does not speak but brush by
feeling superior to you and those 'round.

You're hands are not works of a god
but of pure coincidence, shaped to fit a purpose
A purpose lost on you, lost in the pores of leaves
as they take in your purpose.

I lost my sanity long ago
And I rather not look for it
For it has not bothered to look for me.
Just a weird day. :D
Francisco DH Jan 2014
You are not alone
    My brother, my sister
As you wonder the streets
    With earbuds in.
Their words may bite like winter's frost
   but each time they do
Let the streets see the summer that's inside your heart
     and maybe acceptance will do like flowers in spring
And maybe ignorance will descend in a swirling fashion
    Just like the leaves in Autumn.

Bio Poem
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Francisco
An opened heart, a loyal soul, a keeper of what must not be known.
A piece of his heart is planted for everyone where love had time to grow.
Lover of the silence when he is to himself,
The volumes spoken when with each word emotions are shown,
The knowledge which is sought to feed the brain itself.
Who feels the pressure of society with every step he takes,
The splinters in his chest from recent heartbreak,
Like his world keeps on spinning as he writes thoughts down.
Who fears he must, in society’s eyes, be second rate,
The movements of lips with malicious intent carrying no sound,
The concept of religion for he thinks that’s the world’s end.
Who would like to see how human life began,
His books on their tables with the words speaking his own truth,
Peace to reach from the deepest abyss to the point of every mountain.
Resident of his take it day by day, love every moment, leased youth.

Flipping My Coin
Francisco DH Jan 2014
My coin
with it's many faces
flips in the air.
It switches sides
          too many times
And I cannot bare
It in the air
When will it land
On heads or on tails?
Hormones just make it harder to live.
How is it possible to feel all the feelings and yet feel empty.
Teen problem -_- uh

At this moment...
Francisco DH Jan 2014
At this moment
        the veins have been detached
From my heart
         because of your memory.
At this moment
         the blood is mixed with tears
And the sorrows that run
          Because of the longing.
At this moment
          I know I love(d) you
because I can't stop writing
                                               about
                                                         you.
:/ Why? That's the only question I have.

"Take this knife"
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Take this knife
This dagger of Love
and sheer the veins from my heart.
Drain the blood into the ocean
to be lost in the tears.
Take my heart and place it in a box
And bury it
in the memory of you.

The Heart
Francisco DH Jan 2014
The heart
              Is an oddity
Every heart beat
             Sends you deeper into an abyss
Where caverns must be explored
             ,Light is a rarity,
Where one
             could be lost
              In
                    Love.

looking the mirror
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Balanced Doubt nursed your mistake
Leaving you with no more faith
as you looked in the mirror.

You went 'round trying to fake
But in the end you had to rake
All the pieces of your broken self.

Truth is...
I can hear a part of my heart
Protesting with every heartbeat.
It screams
"Don't date, Just wait"
But My mind tells me
"It's done too late"
While I just stand there
like
Truth is...
I still want you...
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Sometimes there are still faint whispers of love
Attached to a name
No matter how hard you try not to hear.

High School Tragedy
Francisco DH Jan 2014
He stood there
All she could was stare
He had no words to say
But she had plan
Only her mouth was forced to a close with a kiss
Only it was anything but bliss
He tainted the kiss
when he tasted the girl
Two lockers down
Just another aimless thought about high school love ~shoulder Dance~

First Kiss
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Today I

I have found the fountain of
youth In your soft lips.
Discovered the gold
Under your tongue.
And explored with hands
To touch the sun's face.
Today I
Kissed
you.
Well I have this boyfriend, Tommy,  and He is basically what I am looking for.
And we share our first kiss :D hopefully more are to come :D
GOOD NIGHT Y'ALL
:D
Francisco DH Jan 2014
The winds cradled every fear I had and took 'em with a gentle kiss on my cheek.
The cold never bit me while I stood and watched my fears drift away.
It wrapped it's self 'round me, protecting me from the cold within.
It watched with me as my fears grew into a speck
as if it were a star leaving the sky.

Horrible at love Poems
Francisco DH Jan 2014
I tried to write a love poem
But my words, like my tongue, were tied into knots
Not able to pass through the pencil's lips
and onto the paper
For you.
Was in the shower and thought of being Tonged tied and then thought of how some can't write love poems because of the subject of the poem ~shurgs~ lol Hope y'all enjoy :D

"I want to be a real Boy"
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Because of society
I want to be a real boy.

My masculinity needs
to be measured by the grass stains on my white t-shirt
and my ability to flirt through phone numbers
like checking the items off my "to do" list.

Because of society
I want to be a real boy

My ability to love needs
to be measured by how often love comes and goes
Through the night at a price
And how often I can sneak back into to bed beside her
And she not even know.

Because of Society
I can't be a real boy
Another poem on being gay in a mostly straight world

"Count to ten"

"Stupid Could gotcha Killed"
"I won't make that deal"

Hand Me downs
Francisco DH Jan 2014
Every tear drop
Stains your shirt
but you don't care.

You rather I stain
A hand me down
While I am down
Than stain my skin with red.

It's no lie
I've done it before
Carved my tears
Deeper and Deeper
into my
Not so hand me downs
When I am down
Just not deep enough to be dead.

Each tear drop
Stains your shirt
But you don't care.
Francisco DH Jan 2014
There was a light in your eyes
But could it be all the lies
You ever told me.

I was lost I was blind
Caught up in my mind
You would ever hold me.

But now I see
every little thing

It's too late to go back
Gave me heart attack
I can't love you anymore

I was dumb, I was fool
To keep with this cruel
game
