I tasted the lies
On the corners of your lips,
I saw them tumble across
the curves of your hips.
I felt them come alive
in the gaps between your fingers,
a word of advice darling,
her scent, it lingers.

i've been contemplating, contemplation
running rampant in imagination
my mind had been emaciated
now emancipation is long awaited
the plot's under development
some say it's not intelligent
but being rowdy has some gain
living life without restrain
searching, seeking, self-aware
within a secret love affair
so popular with the profane
human nature can't explain
trying to make lemonade
trapped inside a masquerade
confident inside the mind
leaving others far behind
letting loose the known restrictions
fighting, failing those addictions
lying in order to conceal
the truth is, I cannot feel
but there is still satisfaction
watching every reaction
are these actions of the insane?
life becomes a giant game
then the thoughts begin to fade
and the ideas that they have made
I start to contemplate again
the game's impossible to win
She risked on trying a new experience,
An experience that came without permission,
Permission if she would allow it at the moment.
But still, it didn't matter to her.

She was so into the situation,
Gave so much time and effort
Even if, her sleep would be disturbed.
But still, it didn't matter to her.

She invested so much of her emotions,
Gave much care and attention
Even if, she was not efforted back.
But still, it didn't matter to her.

She spoke about love and its emotions,
Asked and gave advices about it
Even if, she was doubtful about it.
But still, *it didn't matter to her.
All I wanted was someone
Someone who would love me
Someone who would care for me
Someone who would treasure me

All I wanted was someone
Someone who would accept me
Someone who would cherish me
Someone who would appreciate me

All I wanted was someone
Someone who would be proud of me
Someone who wouldn't give up on me
Someone who would fight for me

But all the things I wanted
Have you ever thought of it?
Did it even matter to you?
NO. Nothing mattered even my existence
Whenever you're around,
You make my peaceful heart sound.
It beats for you,  only you.
But, did it matter to you?

This feels like a roller coaster ride.
There are times excitement peaks.
There are times it does not.
How unpredictable this state could be?

This started unexpectedly.
Slowly it developed.
I thought this could be.
But, did we feel the same way?

My heart was drowned.
My mind was distracted.
I was really affected.
Nonetheless, *did you even care to stay?
It occurred to her unexpectedly.
Who would have thought it will happen?
All she thought that it will take years,
Years to be found.


It started unexpectedly.
Slowly, it began.
It developed.
It was felt.
It was thought to be love.

She was very overwhelmed,
Overwhelmed by the feeling.
The feeling of someone being attracted to you.
She was very innocent.

Her love was pure.
She cared too much,
Too much that it affected her so much.
Her love was unconditional.

She was drowned by his words,
Words of drama and foolishness.
She believed too much,
Ending up hurting so much.

She made decisions out of love,
Decisions all for her love.
So much effort exerted,
Still, end up being rejected.

Months, *she was left,

Left with pain and regrets.
All she knew was nothing about love.
All she have felt was *foolish love.
A sad beautiful tragic love affair.
For her, it was love.
For him, it was play.

She was very innocent.
He was very experienced.

She was younger.
He was older.

She was positive.
He was negative.

She was sweet.
He wasn't.

She was trying.
He was leaving.
A sad beautiful tragic love affair.

Storm into that room so you will be seen, and
hold up high, sun salute
that body, that vessel you got!
Take every vertebrae, mmm pull it taught
Pull it.
Pull it as twine itself
wrapped around my words-
each bone
creaking like footfalls on old wooden stairs.
And look directly at your soul-
Do not squirm in the shame
of your nakedness -
beautiful lustful abundantly naked-
Instead
Crest, oh lord,
White swirling madness of intentions.
and  take these old bones, baby-
take this body
Take these old bones of mine and pull them up,
Stretch, find the strength! and pull-
Take those limped shoulders and throw them back to the gods!
Oh your rusted soul, fill it with water from the Darma ***** Crick.
And it might
burn-
sting and sour.
Make you cough, choke and sputter.
But oh
Renewed, Renewed!
And you start out with the feet, kicking rocks on the road, mmmm.
And end with the head bowed back with a psalm bouncing on
red berry lips, mmm
Oh, yes! Hands out to glory, oh feet moving, dancing
hot pavement below like Hades.
Step and another, another.
Until  your out of  frame...
Oh glory is the road.
Cleaned and cleansed as you go,
Hear me? Cleansed as you go, down Sinner Lane.
Cleansed and cleansing is the road
of the
revival parade.

I write. Whenever anyone reads my work? I'm always just a little bit amazed .
Thank you, as always.

Sardonically, lightly, he trips around the argument from last night
The night-time affair-morning despair
Whiskey and gin, liquor scented promises
Still droop over the dawn's proceedings
No wonder he waned quick and rose slow last night
His instincts took form, primal release
Inhibitions lulled by the dull lust quenched senses
Now all come back to the brim
And resurface with surmounting terror in the peak of morning
What might have been found ,
In the quiet moments, between the pauses, sighs and naked glances
Has already been lost
No words escape his,
Or hers-
Save for a kiss
Once drenched with wet lust
That now gathers rust;
Hangs in the heavy silence of their confession
Where none of them utter a word,
Yet the verdict rules:
both guilty.
