The heart beats

The blood pounds

He sees the soft beat at her throat

It beats faster as he touches her neck

Her breath stops

He wonders what she is thinking

His finger tips graze her face

Sliding his thumb across her ruby lips

Her breath rushes out

Then quickly catches again

Her eyes are closed

He watches her emotions splay across her face

He moves forward

Slowly

Patiently

Gently pressing his lips to hers

Brushing them

The kiss deepens

Fire rages through them

He says say it

She looks puzzled

Say it

I am yours she says

He claims her mouth with a heated passion

His lips branding her as His

He smiles

Her pulse is racing in her throat

He knows she belongs to Him

She asks if I am OK
I love you then,
well if that is true when all is well
I feel the ominous Clock, like the raven
like death, the breath of empty space
We are freezing together here,
when we huddle together
our skin entangles and soothes,
you are pure
I feel it with the glide
of your hand. You touch
You heal.
Gravity sinks us down lower
to the world of family,
to relationships
to morals
to father time,
You're running from me,
you probably should.

“Dad got robbed again”
he got paid every Friday
and got robbed each week
too drunk to run or resist
dark clad ninja lookin’ dude

“Dad got robbed again”
he never did pay the bills
drank his salary
were it not for my income
don’t know how we would survive

we managed somehow
“Dad got robbed again”, she said
do you think she knew
food was on the table ‘cause
the dark clad ninja was me

Frolicking with you on white snow
I am a little boy yeah I know
Won’t you come to my house for cocoa

Come sleighing, we’ll go together
Don’t mind the chill of the weather
We’ll get lost in the sky forever

Walking by your side I am shy
Holding of your hand we walk by
Look into my eyes i don’t know why

Starlight, the morning is waning
My love for you is fading
Reflection on white snow is jading

I’ll be waiting

I imagine you to be beautiful
Like the text that curls around your pages;
And you would move like your metaphors
Plain, simple, direct.
Classy.

You would surprise me
With bouquets of words -
Many of which I couldn't pronounce
Because I am young and naive.

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

It hurts
When you don't talk
It hurts
When you don't touch
It hurts
When you're first on my list
But I'm only seventh or such
It hurts
When you don't care
Or even seem to like it
When I'm not there
It hurts
when you give your day away

She says there is always someone
Who loves the most and someone
Who loves the least
And
I believe her

Cause it hurts
When I come second
Or
You don't bother
To think about me
It hurts
That I love the most
And it hurts
That you love the least

i want him to hold me and make my problems go away
i want him to be there knowing that he'll stay
i want to walk the hallway and not have to hide
i want to be free of all the crap thats inside
i want him to kiss my tears away and make me alright
i want to see the dreams i know i have every night
i want to stop pretending to be strong
i want them to know everything is wrong
i want to be the weak one held in his arms
i want to not bear any more of these harms
i want to sit and cry in the rain
i want to let go of all of the pain
i want to be loved and hugged
i want someone to care
i want someone who won't add to all the **** thats there
i want to not be ashamed whenever i cry
i want to never have again the need to die
i want to feel him near me knowing he's there
i want him to know that i'll always be there
i want to just sit holding his hand
i want this and more thenever before
and i wish it could happen

We just don’t know anymore
And it’s all gotten way too
Complicated
Nothing is as easy as it used to be
When we just sat around and laughed
You’d tell your stupid jokes
And I’d share mine
And it was all okay
But now times are hard
Everyone feels so forced
And everything seems so wrong
We had it all
Then it was gone
Just heartache and memories
Left in its wake
I broke your heart
And you broke mine
And I cried a thousand times that night
And nothing would go right.
How do we fix this?
If we’re not sure how it broke.
You said those words
And I said mine
If only, if only we could take them back
but we can’t
So I’ve decided
To keep it moving
Cause I’m sick and tired
Of the pain you’ve brought me
If you didn’t remember me
Would you be sad?
Because I wouldn’t be
So maybe it’s better for us all
If everything were left in the past
And nothing is ever like it used to be.
