He looked so familiar
Blue eyes and strong hands
Caught my eye as I walked in
Shy glances throughout the night
Soft kisses under the blankets
Tugging at clothes
Falling asleep in his arms
I wake up with a smile on my face
Twenty-three will be my year
And this man who hasn’t left before the morning light
is finally not just a dream

NYE
West philly
On the floor of your apartment
Late night breathing
Eager lips
Hands everywhere
Mine shaking, yours steady and strong
My bodies no longer mine
Its yours for the taking
Tugging at our clothes,
Pushing your body up against mine as you kiss my neck
Eager for all of you but the drinks weren’t that strong
Quiet, don’t wake the others around us
This is our new years kiss
Not there’s
This was your plan all along
I’m your victim tonight
But I don’t mind
This isn’t typical behavior for me
But i find myself getting lost in your arms
My lips leave yours as the morning light breaks through the window
I feel your eyes on my back as I walk away
A smile on my face
Its going to be a good year

I once loved a girl named Bacardi
She coaxed me in and made me feel free
She put her arm around me and treated me like a queen
I trusted her and did what she pleased
three solo cups and we were dancing on the bar
But this was her plan all along
to trick me once again with her sugar lies
once she had me too high to come down
she began her assault
she kicked me down the stairs
pulled out my hair
punched me in the stomach
put her fingers around my throat
and made me suffer till the morning light
oh Bacardi, fool me once shame on you
fool me twice,  I’ll stick with Jack

On one of the last days of autumn
You snuck up on me once again
You looked at me and only me
Your hands were strong as they guided me across the dance floor
Blue eyes looking right through me
I feel like im falling
And you whisper that you wont let me
As I collapse into your arms and you kiss me on the cheek
I look around as others gaze at us
Hands interlocked and smiles on our faces
Their all thinking what I am
F i n a l l y
A kiss goodbye with a warm embrace
and we part
Now we sit at the bar with contagious smiles
Laughing at eachothers jokes, paying no attention to the commotion around us
I cant help but think,

if only you would let me catch you

little ****
big mouth
narrow mind
no empathy
large ego
big coward
small brain
a big mistake
for you not me
because i'll find better
but you have lost the best
