I want to
make love
to you
but not
in the way
you'd think

I want to
brush your soul
with my fingertips
and slip in and out
of this world
in your arms

I want to
show you
the galaxy
inside of my heart
and watch you
discover each star

I want to
press my lips
against your body
and write the story
of our love
in sloppy wet kisses

I want to
deeply inhale
your wild spirt
and get high
on all your
hopes and dreams

I want to
wander the maze
in your heart
and hang
my portrait
over the
cracked drywall.

I want to
feel you searching
my soul and
shouting out
in joy at
every piece you find

I want to
strip you
of your insecurities
until you can
bask naked
in the warmth
of my love

I want to
paint our lives
in vibrant memories
of days filled
with laughter
and nights filled
with passion

I want to
have all of you
in every moment
of every single day
for the rest
of forever

And if that
isn't making love.
*I don't want
to know
what is.
penny for a thought?
I'll admit
I never meant
To love you

But you were
The drug that
I tried once
And couldn't kick

I got addicted
To your soul
And the way
It brushes up
Against mine

I now crave
To inhale your
Entire being
And get the buzz
I've desired
For so long

But you admitted
You never loved me
And now I'm suffering

*Withdrawal
You broke me in so many ways...

We
could
have
been a
royal flush,
but
you
f o l d e d
Time stops when you're running away from me.
We are rising with the sun,
singing the moon to sleep.
Your voice is an aubade to the meadow.
We don lopsided crowns
to go out and **** kings.
The seasons turns before I wonder
if the wind ever won your war.
You tip your head back and smile,
easy and teeth bared,
watch the way I let go of my handlebars.
We have never looked so young.
You say my name like a hymn.
We leave peaches on the windowsill
and mint leaves on the porch.
Our own kind of magic.
Not even the earth has enough hands
to hold us hostage.
We lay down in the flowers
just to say something terrible.
It might be the first time I've spoken in years,
the way the words scrape my throat.
You dont need a reason to be free.
I will stop writing about summer when it is no longer summer. Maybe. Probably not.

...
“I understand”, you’ll say
“You actually don’t”, I can say

...
We don’t really understand each other, do we?
What we truly feel is under the deepest of sea
We act differently as what is real
Predictable façade is what we see
...
Forged by its surrounding
It is deceiving

...
We react, we judged, we don’t understand
What people really stand
Within the horrifying ugly face of human race
Is a soul that is pure, living in its suitcase
...
He scream, he fight, he fall
Left unheard at all

...
-nothing more-

And everything will just
Keep on continuing as
It always has

Here in America
I'm told that on the news

We are a financially stable
And powerful nation

No harm can come
To our completely exposed power grid
Some say

Or to our economy

Politicians are promising
On the television
To make America
Great again
And on and on

Meanwhile we are
18 trillion in debt

I went to college
I have a credential too

And I'm still broke

Many people are

And our nation is broke
