Goodnight my love
Perhaps its safe
To meet in
Dreamland.

Take hold of me
Fill this void
Where my heart should be

Press your lips on mine
Bodies entwined
Taste sweet like wine

I drank my life away
Then got ****** sober
So now I'll beg you to stay

That harsh realization
Your hands, I trust
There's no hesitation

Love like a breath of life
Courtship ended now
See my future as your wife
On canvas of sand
Their bloods were painted
Adorning the earth
With breathtaking mosaic
Of dead bodies and debris
A tesserae of destruction
Tis the devil's masterpiece
Devastating, but beautiful!*

Poetry has "distorted" my views!
One day
I want to write a poem
That captures your soul
In the adjectives
Describing the sky

One day
I want to write a sentence
That you will carry
In your memory
Scarred and stained
For an infinity

One day
I want to write a short story
Of a guy
A lot like you
And a girl
A lot like me
With no lies
Only honesty
And a forever that lasted
Just a while

One day
I want to write a paragraph
About the sea in you
And the sea in me
And how we fell in
Each other
And never needed to come up for air

One day
I want to write a dictionary
With all of our own definitions
Of everyone else's words
It will start from the letter Z
And end on A
Because it will be easier
That way

One day
I want to write an essay
On how the sunlight
Made patterns on your skin
Even after you lied
And shadowed the constellations
Screaming honesty
Into the dark

One day
I want to write a novel
About the way your voice
And his voice
Sounded
Just before
You both were about to cry

One day
I want to write lyrics
For the song
I meant to sing to you
About the moon
And the sun
And how they dance
Whenever all of our eyes are closed
Even if it's just for a second
(Light
Always travels faster
Than sound)

One day
I want to write you a telegram
With someone else's hand
To tell you
How much I miss you
And how my heart
Is not in my chest anymore
Really-
It's shattered across the sky
Just for you to see

One day
I want to write you a letter
To tell you
That you didn't know what love is
And neither did I

But
I still love you
I'm wearing a skirt on purpose
I lift my legs to rest on a pole
So that it rides up
And you touch me
You do that so well
The switch was turned on
And for me there is no off
Only completion
You rub me
Your turned on too
I can tell
My hand slips back and grazes
The graze becomes a rub
And before we know it we are bare
Our souls shown in the vulnerablity of this nudeness
Our bodies collide
I'm louder than I have been
The pounding is what I needed after all the riding I've done
I just can't help but moan
You say you love me
I love you too
I try to scratch because you like it
And I can't help myself
Eventually
We're done
And I feel closer to my soul mate than ever.

I'm stronger than you thought
Too many wars I've fought

You figured you could break me
No idea that stronger, you'd make me

Just because it has a heartbeat
Doesn't mean you can **** it.
K? K.
I think you need to get a new hobby  that doesn't involve penises.

Can't we just be us for a second?
And stop the conformity
End the uniformity
And become people

Can't we just be us for a moment?
And stop the yes ma'am
End the yes sir
And become equal

Can't we just be us for a while?
And stop the judgement
End the competition
And become simple

Can't we just be us for a day?
And stop the cushioning
End the lying
And become real

Can't we just be us for some time?
And stop the worrying
End the fearing
And become gleeful

Can't we just be us for today?
And stop the striving
End the climbing
And let ourselves free fall

Can't we just be us?
And stop the normal
And show we're
Exceptional

— The End —
