Why can't I just reveal--
reveal my true feelings for you
Just break the silence one day
and hope you feel this way too
Why can't I just scream at the top of my lungs--
my lungs expelling burdens I've locked up
A sense of empowerment beckons over me
as I imagine just saying 'enough'
Why can't I just talk to you the way--
the way I explain this infatuation to my friends
Slowly going through the reasons I fell
from your beginnings to your ends
I can't let go of this little secret but deep down I know why
Self-doubt arises inside of me and determines no, not I

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so right
You make me feel like everything will be alright
You make me feel happy :) :)
You make me feel bad too
But when i think, i realize
I am so lucky to have you
Just because
you make me feel like some one loves me too !!!!!

She kissed me
not because
she wanted to
but because
she could.

We fell in
love.
Not because
we could
but because
we wanted to.

We made
mistakes.
Not because
we wanted to
but because
we could.

We thought
we were
perfect.
Not because
we could
but because
we wanted to.

I vomited in
the bathroom
of a
Baltimore
7-11
because
sometimes
you cannot
hold it in
much
longer.

Her hands shook
as she held her
mirror
because
sometimes
your reflection
can only
tell you
so much.

My body shook.
Her body stiff.
And when
the bodies
move
the hearts
stop.

She lied some.
I drank words.
The veins
in hands
are maps
to imagined
consciousness.

Really,
it's just
a
*******
*****.

Music to
my ears.
Nervousness
between
blinks.
Noise to
my brain.

She said,
"I love you"
not because
she wanted to
but because
she could.

I said,
"I love you, too,"
not because
I could
but because
I wanted to.

What songs shall find new life within me
When the darkness softly embraces the sky
As the sun runs it course into the ocean
While like a master painter he fills my eyes

With the beauty of another very lovely sunset
Whose spiritual rhythms softly soothe my soul
While massaging my heart with his tender caress
Leaving on its walls many sweet memories of gold

He brings my heart within to dance vibrantly  
Full of his love's most radiant lasting kiss
Joyfully reminding me when tomorrow comes
I will be filled once again with its loveliness

Which he spent the night away from me preparing
The most breathtaking scene one can ever find
So when I open my eyes to greet the new dawning
I will be embraced lovingly by a treasure divine.

Effortlessly you entered into my world
Filling my life with your precious love
Lovingly you massage my heart deeply
As you become all I will ever dream of

Simple phrases are spoken together
With never a hidden agenda it seems
And one can notice within your smile
You are the love light of my dreams

I will follow you anywhere in this world
Yes, whatever it takes you know I’ll do
After all our shared moments together
I will never ever have enough of you

So I appreciate every minute with you
Within the embrace of those lovely eyes
And besides God only you can share me
In the beginning love promise of our lives.

I keep fantasizing
That maybe it could be me
The girl you long for
Or daydream about
I can see it in your eyes
The distant look
Of a man wishing, wanting
Someone or something
I am clinging tightly
To a small thread of hope
That your feelings for me
Haven't changed
Just as mine haven't
For you
Although I know
I need to stop pretending
I can't help myself
I can't stop myself from dreaming
