Could subsist,
Without a hug,
Without a kiss,
Just two hearts that co-exist.
Live,
While unknowingly
Leaving it.

When reading a juicy book
Don’t rush

Take a moment to sample the plot
Allowing it to saturate your imagination

Contemplate the tasteful expressions
That spice up the story

Notice how the vivid imagery
Blends beautifully with the conveyed emotions

Of course the main ingredients are the delicious characters
Turning an otherwise average read into a satisfying experience

Allow it all to settle in your mind
Savoring the message it imparts

And once you’ve reached your fill
Turn the page for another serving

What are the chances,
a woman like me,
so obsessed with flowers,
branches and leaves,
finds something so beautiful,
so lovely pressed against my chest,
so intoxicating,
that without another thought,
I had to have him too?
I just collect so many flowers, leaves, sticks, pinecones, and rocks that my desk still looks like the outside.
He's just so beautiful, like the things I collect, I want to hold him close and look at him forever.
Is it better to try something
And to risk any consequence?
Or worse not to try anything,
Risk being of no consequence?

Such a charming young lady.
Made me think maybe.
A maybe to us.
Only later to **** what we discuss.
Well more like argued.
Agree words down the avenue.
You'd scream hate.
I'd say calm down mate.
I guess you don't really like me.
That's no surprise truly.
Your not the first charming miss.
And won't be the last to exist.
Thanks for letting me be your war hero.
Time spend here from 20 to zero.
Such a dashing solider.

I am constraint
In a constraint body
I move from thought to thought
race  between a permanent
solitude
I hear a screaming voice
and it´s my own
She´s screaming out my own
deepest   secrets
Who  did I tell my  shame?
If not you
You keep me, in a confinement
locked in among my frustrated fears
morbidly amused by their strenght
I  stay in here.
Where else  would I go
If  not   back to you.

Lost Poet
Don't promise me forever,
Who knows what dawn will bring,
Just promise me this moment,
For unknown are the tales the future sings,

We will take the days as they come,
And forever may come true,
But days ahead are uncertain,
So I live in the moment next to you.
