For someone so heartless,
My heart hurts quite often.
A painful presence,
Not easy to ignore.

But who cares about a *****,
A *****,
A heartless,
Heartless girl?

I like you in purple,
purple flower fields
We're safe in our meadow,
but they're nipping at our heels

I like you in blue,
blue swirling monsoons
Just think of happy thoughts:
puppies, kiwis and raccoons

I like you in yellow,
yellow playground slides
It's too hot in here,
but it's a place to hide

I like you in green,
green stalks of bamboo.
Puffs of smoke and pocket change,
help me lace my shoes

I like you in red,
red blankets by the river
twilight, moonlight, Starlight,
waking up with shivers

I like you in purple,
purple lazy sighs
Sleepyheads with heavy limbs
and guilty, smiling eyes

In my life,
I love her more.
I've got the month of May.
But it's killing me,
I'm dying,
To put a little sunshine in her life.
Someday she’s gonna learn how to fly,
That I won’t deny.
And I got to let her fly.
Because world without end,
Couldn’t hold her.

Summer’s silence sent your whispers up my spine
Lightning flashed, in fluorescent twists
The night you made me unwind
Our pretentious walls and our secret codes—
The ones we’d crafted with time
Washed away that night in the storm
When your eyes burned into mine

And with the bed as my frame
I painted you a picture
Of my diaphanous figure
An arousing compunction that caused you no shame
Our friction
Your aggression
The contours of my thighs
The grinding of our hips
My concupiscent sighs
That penetrated your skin, burning like a flame
As you released your ambitions and moaned my name

Fall’s fleeting force sent my heart flittering to the sky
Skipping beats sporadically
At the thought of saying goodbye
You were my baby; I, your sweet girl
Your yearning gaze tangible before I’d caught your eye
Intermittent kisses, giggling all the while—
Finding fruition in simply making me smile

Your touch gentle and my movements slow,
We melded together in hedonic harmony
Your body, a piece of me—
Like an anomaly I’d never known
Your inhales
My fingernails
Our internal temperatures heating a degree
You whispered, “I love you”
A curiously rational impetuosity
Your love, a beautiful and delicious glow
Tempting me into oblivion below
