The stones come up as water fills
As time passes,
you fill my mind more often

It doesn't make sense, does it?
Thinking of you, savoring the little moments we had
Everything is a lie, a dream, a memory etched forever in me

Where will I run away from you?
There is nothing stopping me from forgetting you
Then, what is it?

Is it because you're an angel I've never seen before?
A beautiful man, so perfect, so full, and so far
The picture from God's hands, painted to perfection

A little music plays, the screen rolls down and we dance
In my mind,
I conduct a play for Us

We dance on the moon, among the trees, in the pool
We marry,
and still dance in the terrace of the honeymoon villa  

Then I smile, and open my eyes
Now don't embrace yourself
I can close my eyes anytime, to restart our play...
the sea the skin of a wet dog,
black the beach; a ruined church,
the coastal lights a string of lesser ways;
we are as empty as a dropped shell
pulled across the ebb, a ripple of salt..

and as the night gets deeper
a dragon breathes like the tide:
no mistake, the dark needs its hours

Forest Lake Academy
Writing, biology, anatomy
Where I first loved science
Found a word smith's defiance
Asian, male, teacher to blame
Don't remember his name
But he taught me well
And now I excel
White, female, teacher to blame
Don't remember her name
But she started me writing
Words come like thunder and lightning
And it's kinda exciting
Sensing synapses igniting
The proverbial bulb of light
An idea with untold height
The honor to write
Is it only the size that matters?
Is it the length or width?
Is it beauty that flatters?
Or is that misconception and myth?

Is it the amount of money?
Is it ones own height?
Is it vanilla or honey?
Complexion that's dark or light?

Is it the skinnier or the fatter?
Is it the size of her chest?
Do these things really matter?
Do they measure love best?

didn’t care about
the moon
       ‘til I saw her
lunar skin
       didn’t understand
her eyes
       ‘til I saw the stars
within
       didn’t treasure her
fair feet
       ‘til they touched
Orion’s belt
       didn’t know about
the night
       ‘til she lit up
all I felt.

this first line should be indented, too, but the format will not allow it
Brightest beauty glistening on the wave
In that moment perfection crave
That picturesque scene forever save
Remembered now until distant grave
Calm, gentle, floating on the wave
For some it really seems so brave
To let go, be free of thoughts that pave
A path so dark you wish to stave
Sky's reflection gleaming on the wave
Bright, blue, clear, such hope it gave
And worried thoughts start to behave
Eyes free, no more accustomed to a cave
Peace, tranquility, dancing on the wave
And Oh how sweet the heart can rave
Once freed from shackles that enslave
She shouldn't be crying tears because she's mistreated
Or she's been lied to
Or cheated on
She should be in tears of pleasure because you know how to make her satisfied
