I wish I could
Star sixty nine
Myself back to you
By your side
In a flash
I wish I could
Return to sender
Myself back to you
By your side
In no time,
Between you and I
There should be
No distance
No time,
It should just be
You and I
No 'in between'
Or between,
No translation
No need to understand
Just feeling
Just love,
Because if it did
Then what we have
Wouldn't be for reals
As we are cryptic
Unbreakable
Code unlike Morse,
All heart
And no mind
No one minding
Just love abiding...

Forgive me
If my eyes
Do not deviate from you
It is not everyday they see such beauty,
Your voice drifts
To my ears like glorious music
You take control of me,
I feel powerless,
I wish you were mine,
To love with all my soul;
To give you my whole being
To be yours forever,
One desire engulfs my life
Your love for me;
Knowing you would give all to me
Just the same as I,
Overflowing with passion
The feeling so strong
I can feel your lips caress my own
Your hair as soft as the smell of your skin
Nothing worries me;
As your warmth surrounds me
This moment only;
You and I
The world aside,
Never ending; forever lasting
I feel complete; I want nothing more
My heart beats loudly; impatient, desperate
No worse prison that the one within my mind,
When I wake up; reality is there, it saddens me...

Into your eyes
I feel like soaring into skies,
Looking deep
How do I keep
From your smile?
All the while
Just saying hello
Listen to the cello
Play a tune;
Before noon
Quell the laughter
But I'm still lost even after,
Dark saucers lit up
Bright; I'm the happiest pup
Lap up the joy
Milk cup hiding my ploy,
Finding any reason for a meet
Just short of a miraculous feat,
You leave your impression
Most subtle suggestion,
Admiring the grace
The beauty of your face...

I can chalk on a sidewalk
The most beautiful mosaic
I can whittle a tree
Into an intricate clock
I can paint a most
Serene scene
I can draw
A moving image
I can mold
The most exquisite vase,
But when it comes
To the canvas
Of your body
I don't know
What else
I could possibly do
To make
You any more beautiful,
With curves
Challenging nature
I've never lost my cool
At seeing such shapes
Not like how they fit on you,
Your beauty is unsettling
Were I a toddler sorting
Different shaped rods
Your eyes for stars
All your curves for spheres
I could keep going but you must understand
We fit together
Better than K'nex and Duplo,
In body heart and mind...

Bared my soul
And burned
Third degree,
Who could see
Her primary goal?
Had me turned
Inside out,
Someone called
It, play by play
Jokes on me
It was I,
Told a lie
Shined the sea
For the day,
Though walled
In was I, doubt
Not lacking
That I could
Make it through,
Cards high stacking
Mites in wood
Floor falling apart
Like my crumbling heart,
A stick she threw
Far far and high
If only I could just roll over and die...

I would never walk away
You can count on me like an extra toe,
Nothing you could ever say
Would make me say no,
To anything you'd ask of me
From pond to lake to the sea,
I'll always be your tug boat
The most reliable coat,
Against the elements
Always love you in +1 increments,
From the first to the last
From the stern to the mast,
On land and ocean
Endless is my devotion,
Anchor to your heart
Home to your soul
An always burning coal,
And the easiest part
Is, all you've got to do for this,
Lie, pretend, deceive, so easy it is
To act like you care
And I'll be as dependable to you as air...

Soon you'll leave
And I'll just believe,
That day dreams
Have engulfed me
Completely,
Died long ago
And this story just deems
To repeat what I know
Is the next twist
The next ahhh
Even if you insist
On what's magical Ta-daa,
No more the less real
Than what I feel;
Grip the sheets tighter
Feeling lighter and lighter,
Turn the lights down
All will be a nightmare
Once again return fare
Leaves nothing but a frown,
Middle of the road
Wandering moose
Fight to wake from this code
Hit the snooze
On death
Startled alive
Gasping for breath,
Sweat beading; dive
Under the shower,
I'll await you
Next season's new flower
Before the summer is due...
