What I can feel
I've never felt before
This burning desire
I just can't ignore

It must be a spell
Cast from hell
What else could this be
Who has taken hold of me

This evil temptation
I cannot resist
You must truly be
The most evil witch

Your enchanting eyes
And irresistible lips
That dark blonde hair
And those beautiful hips

But I have to resist
I have to be strong
Before I do something terribly wrong

There's this inner rawness
That comes at night
Lawless in its flight
Not afraid to fight
Because it's honest
The innocence of it
But so naïve and so me
I'm the sum of all I've done
Minus all I've thought
Plus all I've fought
What I regret equals what I'm proud off
So I forget the past, move pass it
To prove my point and not disappoint
Grasp the tomorrow, forgoing the sorrows
And accepting my soul for what it is
My very flawed essence
God, I'm not God or even a sun
But a son on the run
Lost into the sprawl
Finding myself - alone
In the forest falls
On a star lit night, feeling unlit
Scratching at the surface for purpose
And despite my fright I still ask
Suppose we're alone
And the skies really are empty
Would it matter?
Either way I'm still here, alone
Looking up at the closest star
So far away
So I look down instead
I listen to my soul
Like quiet waves
Gently lapping at the shore
Within my very core
The tide resides but only to surge forward
I fall down only to get up
Regardless of everything
Because it's only me
Just me.

Wildflowers weep
along lonely garden paths
Nectar filled tears
shed on frail petal ridges
run in muted colors
~
Daylight cloaked
behind clouded veils
Darkly hidden as
grey cotton whispers
cry on listless breezes
~
Butterflies sleep
in empty shadows
neath leafless branches
while worried sorrow
stills their fragile wings
~
And this hollow heart
within my breathless chest
lingers in hushed wishes
and silent pleas
*missing you

You call me Lesbian
I say, yes I am
You call me Gay
I say, yes I am
You call me Bi-******
I say, yes I am
You call me Transgender
I say, yes I am
It doesn't matter what you call me
It doesn't matter what you think
you will not change who I am

I am who I am

“Rise this early morn with me,
so your beauty I may see”
~
My morning is perfect,
the sky crystal clear
A bright sun is shining,
soft breezes I hear

Flowers are blooming,
midst glistening dew
My morning is perfect,
my morning is you
