I've been dreaming lately.
Painting watercolor images on the canvas in my mind
Watching romantic movies on my eyelids
Singing in my sleep.
I dream that I confess everything to you
The way that I feel, what I truly think
And I even place my heart in your hands.
I wake up whispering "I love you".
Sometimes your forehead is resting on mine as I say it
Other times you're walking away...
The scenario continues to change,
But the result is always the same...
I continue to love you.
It's Monday
sigh,
oh me oh my
why,
'twas Sunday only yesterday

what trickery is this?

I kiss her slowly as she wakes.

They say that sixty seconds takes a lifetime for
a minute,
she makes a lifetime longer and the hours
make me hunger,
but her kiss comes on much stronger than before.

Only Monday makes me smile like this
the waking kiss,

Sunday I miss, but not that much

such are the ways of days in the week
who seeks to stay in a given day
stagnates,

she waits until the ink runs dry
oh me oh my
why
'twas full only a Moon ago.

A stolen glance a
Playful wink
Love eternal sworn in ink
Teacher confiscates the letters
Forced to read
Out loud
Beautiful sonnets that would
Make Shakespeare proud

When inspiration knocks
Be quick to let it in
Offer it your heart
And it will offer you a pen

Even a heart in despair
Is still able to care

You know it amazes me
how long I’ve known you!
It’s been some years, don’t you agree?
Conversing about this and that;
Casual chats over a cup of tea,
But crazily after all these years-
I don’t know you – you don’t know me!
Crazy how you could know someone for years, but not really know them at all.

the tricky thing
about growing up
is it’s a choice

puberty happens
because of nature

adulthood is a conscious effort.
