PN - Hello Poetry

PN Nov 2013

I want to give you the world
but I can't afford even the smallest thing
I want to hold you close
but we are oceans apart
I want to tell the world
but the world is against me
I dream of running away*
but am stuck in this labyrinth

Weekend getaway

Just need to get away*

Away from the noise in my head
Leave the phone behind
Jump on the bus
Go to the furthest part of the kingdom.

Lock the door
Throw away the key
Hide under the sheets
Hoping you'll join me there

Afterparty - free bar
Escape back behind locked doors
Alone in the dark
We have all we need

Just a birthday card

It was just a birthday card

Not the end of the world
Not a threat
Not a bribe
Not a reason to cry
Not a reason for anger
Not a cause for sleepless nights

It was just a card
A card to say happy birthday

Can't wait

Can't wait
to see you
to hold you
to kiss you
to feel you
to caress you
to undress you
to make love to you
to wake up next to you

But**
mostly I can't wait to feel
the way I feel when I'm with you

Goodnight

I might be silly
I might expect too much
I might not understand you
I might love you more than I think

The phone is silent
The thoughts are screaming
The covers are cold
The body is boiling

Just because you never write
*"goodnight"

Waiting by the phone

entangled in cables
laying in my bed
phone needs charging
pulse racing

Make me speechless

Speechless
When I suddenly struggle to make the words come out right
When I feel I should say things that are hard
When I look into your eyes
For you

Longing*
For feeling your loving arms around me in a warm embrace
To wake up to see your beautiful smile
For us to feel close
For you
