We were made to roam every corner of this earth, to become nomads whose homes are inside each other.

Our hearts are too curious to be kept in this cage made of bones.

I wrote this for you a long time ago on a coffee stained napkin, after you left me, full of love, lingering in a cafe.

"For you, in all your follies and faults and the way they make you so perfect for me.
For you, in the moments that linger in the vehemently insignificant corners and corridors of things, as if drifted of their own grandure.
For you, for the words that spill to the floor and the brilliant way you understand the deafening silence that follows.
For you, for your supernovas and clever shades, for your daylight smiles and nighttime skins.
For you, for your familiarity and the impossible truths that stand as martyrs to say that I have loved you before.
For you, despite the treachery and quiet sinister fun of the world.
For you, for making me so terribly scared of dying."
Yet here I am, in your wake, so full of so many thoughts and demons. Know that I have died, that I have loved and lost with equal measure.
I hate
the way your name courses through my veins
with every breath I take
as if it belongs there.
It makes me sad every time I touch your skin,
because you do not know the intention of my touch.
From the sands of the shore
to the mountains I hearken
There's nothing more peaceful
than my English garden

The wildness is welcome
and the beautiful freedom it brings
Arches wrapped in thorny rose
paths leading to luscious dreams

With Wisteria cascading
and the Daffodil in full bloom
I set for me, a spot of Tea
to bring in the afternoon

A time to pause and ponder
inhaling the scent of Spring
Absorbing the rays of the sun
to this idyllic vision I cling

No need to leave this life carefree
from it's burdens I have been pardoned
No time can I find better spent
than in this perfect English garden

She's the Britt but it was my line...I set for me, a spot of Tea.
****** Americans! Hahaha!
Maybe I'm a good man
A lost soul on the move
I'm a liar with conviction
Maybe you are too

I think the sky blue on purpose
The moon still full enough to view
The stars add up in surplus
Maybe one plus one is two

The way you laugh is angelic
Maybe you already knew that
My compliments sound long overdue
I think you knew that too

I'm scared of asking for your name
Maybe I know you'd only be passing through
We're separated by more than six degrees
A conclusion you already drew

Maybe life provides no guarantees
And all I ever wanted was the truth
I don't know what to believe
Maybe you always needed something new

Maybe there are no keys to succeed
Maybe success is knowing who you are is true
Maybe who you are is complete
And you and I will make do
Here's an edited version of my latest write. Let me know what you think!
So **** tired,
But I can not sleep.
Because I won’t be hers,
And I feel so weak
Against what occurs,
Not a word I’ll speak
For I’ll share my heat.
I’ll put her first,
And kiss her cheek.
When she’s her worse
I’ll lift her to the peak.

With infinite knowledge,
And maybe the last dance.
Won’t stop until the law’s abolished,
Not until we can share the same glance.
Love's is a hell of a drug.
I won’t dream if you don’t want me to.
I swear I’ll stop being a fraction of your life if you so much as whisper the words.
Tell me to let you go and I might wander back up that cliff;
But I cross my heart that you’ll be the last one on my mind.

You might not realize,
but my life doesn't orbit around you.
You may be my gravity, with enough friction to hold me perfectly still,
but without you I am still alive.
A pure shriek of blackness will strike over,
but that’s still a form of reality.
