When while a day goes quietly the nigh

soft hearts may ponder a delicate noon-

time pleasure. That is the moment inside

a dream slow to respond, yet urgency

calls upon a name to satisfy sweet

melody, a caress, play, we digress.

For when might anyone ask forgiveness

upon simple words, golden, a sparkle

of intent defines passing encounters.

Each streaming ray of hope dances our brows

well toward jest’s enigmatic interlude.

-patience beckons a rare emotion served-

When then we bask in the moonlight of love

we know surely, our lives are drawn above.
As I lay me down to sleep,
I can't get you
out of my head.

Come run with me
to forever,
I'll hold your hands
till we grow older.

Smile when my eyes
are frozen,
because they're all frozen
for you.

Kisses might be far too soon,
but I'll be waiting,
our hopes and dreams
are ever in our destiny.

Let me take you
to the edge of all heartaches,
and show you
how beautiful it is
to be with.

Take this love of mine
wherever you go,
no, I don't even call it love,
I call it Geronimo.

Stare at the sky and you will realise,
realise you forgot clouds move and suns shine.
They rush past while time spent is in your head.

Take a moment, to breathe, to listen,
listen to the stillness and allow it to consume you.
Allow yourself time to not think, not feel.

Its not often we appreciate the beauty of nature.

Listen to the orchestra the world sings,
sings for everyone to hear the beauty in the sounds.
Leaves falling in time to the branches groan in the wind.

Nature isn't just the outdoors,
it is everything on this planet, including you.
the sunrises upon your legs from a fall, your inner beauty singing.

*More often we need to allow out fingertips
dip into fresh streams, to feel the cool water
and take time to love ourselves as we love the beauty of our surroundings.
That girl was a runner from birth,
and she would have run right to the end of her life
if it weren't for him.
He made her pause.
He made her immobile.
He kept her in a cage.
When it all ended, some thought that she'd stay-
too deeply sad to ever run again.
But I know better.
She would run even faster than before,
just making up for lost time.
One day our sun will stop burning
One day the universe will freeze, contract, and be born again
Empires will fall and rise
Those we love will be born, and will die
But I could face all of this holding your hand
Watching the rest of the world crumble around us
As dust returned to dust
This is old, but I hadn't put it up yet.
moonlight dances softly between branches
marking its territory on the cold
lonely leaves
crunching beneath the soles of my feet
temporarily drowning out the sounds
of the night
placing my hand over the damp bark
breathing in its earthy scent
an innocent bat falls
from his beloved tent
cradled in my ***** palms
fur as soft as a rabbits undercoat
wings fragile
thin
together we embrace our faults

you say that we all make mistakes
your dizzy vision &
sloppy decisions
account for the kiss you never intended
to happen
you say that alcohol weakened your inhibitions
i say it weakened what we have
if you kiss her once
you might kiss her twice
i tell you more in spite
but
remember how hurtful my words can be
should they cut you?
and rip at your heart
the way you tore at mine?
we can pretend that we're just friends
the depth of our emotions reaching just above the heart
careful not to drop any further
or our ways are bound to part

we can pretend that i'm not hoping
that your feelings are close to mine
ignore these useless butterflies
i do this every time

we can pretend that i'm not falling
deeper into your eyes
locking me in
and holding me captive
trying not to cry

we can pretend that i'm not broken
seeing you with her
but pretending only gets you so far
what's left is only hurt
