When we Danced
 Aug 2015 scared
Jeni
When we dance
I'm drowning
Warm chocolate
Eyes draw me in
Swallowing me
A warm embrace
Dark
Mystery
Mixed with a sprinkle
Of salt, flirtation
melted
And smooth admiration,
The enigma
Of being lost but found
All at once.

With each step
The cliff crumbles
Until I've fallen
Into the the sparkling mystery
The fiery gaze
The heady dance
Again.

No longer do I stumble, only
Because I'm constantly
Free-falling
Deeper.

Inhalation
Choke on confusion
Cold refusal
Cautious desire
The chill of the night
Sprints down my spine.

Confusion
Repels
The desire and refusal
Like oil in water
Pushing away
The others.

Exhalation
The desire holds
My heart
With a wild strength
Like steel.
Steals my lungs
Battles the confusion
Harbored there
And stays in my chest
Content
Like a dragon in its cavern to
Celebrate at last
Its victory
With eternal flame and glory.

I'm still in free fall
But it's like
Being on a cloud
Forever and in
A moment
Every single time
I catch your eye
For a second
Too long
It's been since we danced
But when we do,
I think I'll know
This whole experience
Has been
Worth it.

Every moment.

I'm still drowning
But I'm not scared
Anymore
Because of your hand on my waist
And your eyes
Holding mine
I know
All is well.
19 | 31 Poems for August

The light in her hazel-brown eyes is the kind that gets people mesmerized.
I’ve fallen deeply for the words from a lady who creates love with a simple touch of a pen.
She made me realise that true beauty starts from within.
She is my muse, my friend, my lover.
She is my inspiration and for that I love her.
Life tastes better on the curves and edges of her lips.
Her love is the scripture that my heart believes in.
Her love is never enough; I’m always left yearning for more.
In a world ravaged by cold wars, we both know what we’re fighting for.
Nobody should ever come between us because there will be war.
I want to be the unforgettable poem written on the pages of her soul.
I want to be the poem that will always make her heart warm and whole.
No one’s perfect but she’s perfect for me.
Her love is the scripture that my heart believes in.
I want to escape from the cold, I want to nestle myself deep inside her soul.
The light in her hazel-brown eyes breaks through the darkest of clouds that always seem to surround me.
The light in her hazel-brown eyes has me mesmerized.
I could write poetry forever with the inspiration our love provides.

Nevermind
I wish everyone
Would get the **** out
I don't even know why
I invited them to my house

Forget, do your best.
Let the liquid take over.
C'mon, you know you can do it!
Past, presence, the future is near.
So please,
just forget me dear.

The emptiest hearts,
Are the heaviest to carry.
I'm suicidal
I have thought about it not only once or twice but thrice
I'm suicidal
I have written hundreds, thousands and millions of letters
I'm suicidal
I'm a danger to myself
I'm suicidal
I see no fun in living.
