A piece of you
Reflecting back
The bitter words in your mouth
Too raw to speak
A poet is
Someone in pain
And someone in love
Someone who looks at the world
Through a kaleidoscope
Who takes a magnifying glass to each
And every
Word you say
And lets them imprint on their heart
A poet is
A star gazer
A dreamer
A chaser of
The improbable
But hopes anyway
A poet is
Tissue paper skin
A heart of glass
And a soul of titanium

A poet is
A sharp tongue
And a gentle kiss
She is a sob
He is a sigh
A poet is
The sun at midnight
Bright and
Burning
Hot
Alive
But cloaked in a darkness
They cannot shake
The brightest day
And the darkest night
A poet is
The human experience
A paradox
An oxymoron
So complicatedly
Simple

A poet is
A lover
Who refuses
To stop wearing their heart on their sleeve
No matter how much it bleeds
But rolls them up
So you can’t see
The blood stains


A poet
Is Poetry
Mysticheart Oct 2014
I watch you when you sleep the sunlight on your face,
The beauty of your naked body laying on the sheets.
Always sets my heart to race,
Raising the heat.

Your eyes open catching me,
You smile your naughty smile.
When you hold me it's everything I thought It'd be.
Romance mixed with a little wild.

Never did I know life could be like this,
You changed everything.
With just a single kiss,
You made my heart sing.

Lastnight  we danced in the rain,
Like two little kids laughing out loud.
You think us insane,
When we layed down to watch the clouds.

The cold kisses hitting our skin,
As we lay there with our hands entwined.
My hair blown by a gentle wind,
As your lips kissed mine.

It got colder and you said babe we got to go,
I grasp your hand wanting to stay.
You look me in the eyes and said you do know,
"They'll be other days".

I love you for being strong enough to share my
Pain,
I love you even more for wanting to.
For knowing when and how to keep me
sane,
With all you do.

I love you for being there for me ,
And for not saying I way you down.
For helping me see,
The beauty that's still around.

Yet I love you most for being the definition,
Of what a man truly is.
I can finally say I won,
Cause I'm yours not his.

Tonight you trace my scars with your fingertip,
Slowly raising my face to meet your eyes.
A soft kiss you place on my lips,
Wiping my eyes as I cry.

You say this man you hate,
Who could lead me to such extremes.
You tell me it's not to late,
To live a better dream.

You pull me close and whisper I love you in my ear,
Together you promise we will bring it to an end.
"Babe" you say as long as I'm near,
No one is ever going to hurt you again.
