We're on the other side.
With blessing and permission
We begin each stride.
Someone should paint you in your beauty.
Other than me painting portraits in my mind.
You are so achingly beautiful,
every time I remember you I cry.
And I think about things I shouldn't,
like children and being a wife.
And I long that you would approve it,
anywhere and anytime.
I pray that God Himself could do it,
but we'll only see evidence in His time.
I will just keep loving you through this,
every time you're in or out
of the sight of my eyes.

Don't hold my hand
I'm sinking
I'll only
Make you drown

You meet my eyes
But I'm blinking
I can't help but
Let you down

This isn't going to work
I've been thinking
You shouldn't
Keep me around

I need to pick my pieces
Off the ground

Drowning or falling?
Floating or flying?
Is it raining inside
Or am I just crying?
Is time moving slowly?
Or just not at all?
I want to stop climbing
I long for the fall
There's chaos in stagnance
This silence is too loud
I feel lost in solitude
But smothered in a crowd
The darkness is freeing
The sun is too bright
I just want to hide
I thrive in the night
Just leave me, I beg you
It's too late for me now
Don't leave me, I beg you
I need you around
When you're gone I'll be left here
Alone with the sound
Of choking on oxygen
That can't be found
Pick me up
I'm falling  d

Rustic urns and garden walls awaiting
and cabbage roses open—their fragrance sweet:
A spicy aroma carried on the breeze,
Oh, enjoy it all now while summer lasts!

-M.H.-
I dedicate the songs within me,
To you, tho I forget their theme,
Be they many, yet these to thee.

And ev'ry atom, a part of I alone,
Feels, moves, breathes you alone,
For with you, I know life goes on.

Move a bit closer to me, patiently
Whisper your thoughts to me,
And I will kiss you deadly.

if wishes were delicious
I'd only want to
eat you

I reach for your hand
But cringe at its touch
Two broken people
Not amounting to much
Heart wanting to forgive
But is in the mind's clutch
Giving nothing but love
But receiving a punch.
The thoughts of the brokenhearted betrayed.

i don't see it in your eyes
the love you felt for me
they are like a dark abyss
empty
i don't feel it in your caress
the warmth of our souls together
its cold and lonely here
i don't hear it in your words
flowing gently like a river
they've become roaring storms
i don't smell it in the air
the scent of our intertwined bodies
its the smell of loves decay

Her lover was faithful
But it was not kind.
It took all of her dreams,
And left them behind.

Now she's withering,
Like a dying flower.
The addictive white dust,  
Stealing her by the hour.

Her family disowned her ,
Her house reposessed.
But her white dusty lover,
Oh,  it loved her the best.

I could pour your smile in my tea
Stir in your laugh
Add that sparkle from your eye
Sprinkle on a dash of your humility
Clink China cups...raise a toast to you and me
Oh my...what a perfect start to my day
That would be.
