I* remember the time when
I was enough
For you
Jay Forrest Jan 2013
I want to wake
Each morning
In your arms

Comforted by your oddness

Seduced by your knowledge of my ways
Jay Forrest Jan 2013
Have you ever felt like you're drowning but you can see everyone around you breathing?
I just don't know what to do anymore.
I've had to deal with far too much to just be okay anymore.
I don't know
I just don't want to have to wake up and have to worry weather or not something else is going to happen.
I just feel like the day to day is a struggle for me and everyone else is just fine
I just feel like everyone wants something from me.
Everyone expects something for me and I can't deliver
Or wants me to be someone I'm not. And I don't even know how to be normal
I've never been normal
I can't even remember the last time I was truly okay
More of a rant than a poem. No 100% a rant and not a poem I just needed to get this out.

You're gone,
Just as fast as you came.
With my love
Jay Forrest Dec 2012
The day to do day isn't fun anymore
This mundane isn't what I want
I need more
What happened to the love
What happened to the hate
Where's the passion that flowed through this place
Throw a chair
Break a plate
Show me that there's more than this
Feed me poison
Or your kiss
I keep telling you what I need isn't a white picket fence
Or 1.2 children running here, Hence
My anger
My rage
Challenge me with a new day

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Well I say sir, the beauty is here as I hold her
Her hair streaks of sunshine
Her smile a work of art
They say nothing good can stay
Well sir I say, she's mine
I know her biblically and fully
I need her to get me through
But still they tell me you don't know what you have until its gone
She's here to stay
This woman with the beauty in her eye
Her and her timelessness
And to me she's priceless
Jay Forrest Dec 2012
All I ask is just one
Just one more touch
One more kiss
Your lips on mine and I know
All I need in my pathetic excuse for an existence
Is just one
Just one more minute
One more lifetime with you
Just give me
Just one more hug
One more night
One more of your looks
The ones that pierce through to my soul
Because, my love, with you
Just one will never suffice
