you are beautiful.
you are tragically beautiful.
you are notre dame
at night.
you are the eiffel tower
amidst bombshells.
you are the house of commons
and the house of lords.
you are the lone beam
standing after Katrina.
you are the one baby sea turtle
who makes it off the beach.
you are the dark side of the moon.
you are the patch of sand
struck by lightning.
you are the remains discovered
after the plane goes down.
you're a smooth puddle in a parking lot.
you are the creaky stair
that warns of intruders.
you are all of the red skittles.
you are Job 3:14.

God for a day
By Joeysguy

If I could be God for just a day
To do things my way

I would eliminate disease from the earth
So children would not be sick at birth

When children are healthy  
Parents feel wealthy

Children should have protection
Also learn the right direction

Women have inner beauty and love
They need attention from above

I would also save the past
So some memories and things could last

I probably won’t be God for a day
But I wish these would come true anyway

It’s in the Eyes
By Joeysguy

We can see different feelings in someone’s eyes
The pain and tears when a loved one dies

What’s to follow
Is sadness and sorrow

Not far behind are the fears
To go on alone for the following years

It takes time before we see happy eyes
A smile or laugh could be the mouth lies

Sleep doesn't live here;
Just the monster
Under my bed
And the skeleton
In my closet
And your ghost
In my arms.

One moment I want you
The next, unsure

One moment my hearts open
The next, a closed door

One moment feelings overwhelm me
The next, no more

One moment I feel safe
The next, scorned

One moment I dream
The next, reality hits

One moment I am decisive
The next, ambivalent

One moment I am ok
The next, I cycle again

One moment I know I want you
The next, I am unsure...

Will this perpetuation ever become anything more?

what if
     our windows            have been lying
  this whole time?
