Silent winter nights enveloped in fog ...
Clouds Of smoke puffing out of the mouth,
& the only noise you hear is the cold breeze that whiffs past your skin sending a chill down your spine..reminding how cold a place this world can be..and not even being in the coziest rooms or bagging up in the warmest quilt can help..the heart, frozen cold.. the ashes from the embers of the  dying flame flies...all it wants is to be wrapped up in a warm hug to resurrect its faith in coziness of love..
a log on the beach
trapped upon rock and sand
waiting for high tide

i wish my eyes

could clearly see

what my tinder

heart

believes

we'd survive

if we relied

on the love

that beats

inside

I heard a cry in the night,
A thousand miles it came,
Sharp as a flash of light,
My name, my name!

It was your voice I heard,
You waked and loved me so—
I send you back this word,
I know, I know!
From the very beginning
you touched me in a way no one has before
you loved everything about me
yet you didn't even know my name
you let me be myself
even though I deserved to be put in my place
instead you just listen to me vent
until a smile crosses my face
I had no idea I'd fall in love with you
with our very first "Hello"
I try to think of how my life was without you
but now it's **** near impossible
you have such an affect on me
your a drug I can't describe
you are the one for me
you are my love at first sight

Viv Clark
What shall I call you?
Should I call you my friend? Despite my heavy weight you still catch me every time.
Should I call you my enemy? I do hate you. I hate that I can never hate you.
Should I call you my sibling? Sounds incestuous.
Should I call you my lover? I don't wish to only have you in between my bed sheets at three in the morning.
Should I call you my partner? Let's hold hands and use the buddy-buddy system forever.
Should I call you mine? Yet all I want to be is yours.
Should I call you by your own name? It's the sweetest thing that has ever left my lips.
