when you
speak
my soul
shakes
your voice
trails
on my skin like
fingertips
and as the hours
tick
the earth
quakes
filled with words we only
think
somewhere the barrier
breaks

Rejection


You are a very long way away
And in front of me stand a thousand rejections.
I am not going to fight my way through all those deterrents,
Just to reach you and ask you out
And then you become one thousand and one.


If you ask me out, you already know what I will say.
I will say yes, only to you, with no other do I wish to make,
A true love connection.
If you want to fall in love with me
And you want to hear that you are heaven sent,
Then ask me, say you want me; my heart has already been won.


This is our time, our day.
Are you my true love?  Or are you another rejection?
I am only interested in commitment.
Are you Valentine and Va Va Voom!
Or so quick to be gone…
Time to move on.

With the force of like sides of a magnet I push people away
Constantly unable to touch or come close
But nothing I could do could prevent our opposition from bringing us closer together
The differences of our upbringing make us both mysteries to one another
With every piece of information I am able to take in of you, I crave more
My attraction for you is unquestionable
That, we have in common
Fears from the past rest in my heart, but I lose touch of everything when we're together
I absorb your beauty, your voice, your touch as often as I can
Chemicals flood my brain and pulsates through my veins with just one look
Your perfection scares me
As does your imperfection
But I'd be scared regardless
I want nothing more than to see what we'll become
What we'll grow together to become
As we move forward and grow together as our own entity
It may not be easy
But I know she's worth it

Heart-Shaped Needle


The female form is perfect,
So why get a tattoo on your heart?
If you need to cover it up with art,
Then that is your wrong choice;
But now I am so far away from using my voice,
When in all other circumstances,
You and I would be dancers.


Waist could have been in arm, both totally naked,
Looking into each other’s eyes, never wanting to look away.
Now your eyes only see me walking away, I’m saying “**** it!”
‘tis such a shame that I cannot stay
And ask you out, because without doubt,
I could fall in love with you in all other realities,
But not in this one,
Because you want to get a new tattoo done.
So I am gone, lost in your painted sun.
I wish I could see past it,
But you and I are not the right fit.


If only I liked it, then we could unite,
But I have my own life and I live my own mind
And it tells me “no.”, keep on walking;
Go and watch the next show,
For she is in need of a pin cushion, jigsaw man, painted blue,
So you will never greet her ****
And say how do?
Even though she is so **** cute!


You only meet eighty percent of what you wanted,
So all is lost to nearly,
When she could have been the perfect fit.
Kama Sutra,
It sure was nice to meet ya.

Being single isn't the best

But it comes in handy when your taking a test

Love is a distraction

Caused by an attraction

And can be a reason your torn apart

Love does that to a person

The habit does nothing but become worsen

It's an exception because you have fallen and can never be caught
If you like my poems please follow and like! :)

Alone


There are only so many times you can go to a dry well,
Begging for water when you are dying of thirst.
I have exchanged my last token, so no words will be spoken;
No thoughts can be shared, my empathy hurts.
All I need is one, but for me love is gone.
Something I used to do, but now? None.


I cannot pray for what I cannot ask for.
I cannot beg or implore for a new love to adore,
Because I have either closed every open door,
Or they have been slammed in my face, no questions asked,
No more.


No more love for me; my heart a disease.
Take it with ease.
I have already given it to a thousand lost souls
And there is no more gold to be earnt from a piece of me,
That does not work to find a thing that does not exist,
When God knows I have tried!


All I need is a simple kiss, yet no lips exist for my benefit.
They are for others, who already have lovers
And are also cheating love with former lovers.
And me?
Oh brother!
Do not even bother to ask about my love life,
Because you have endless names in your black book of abundance.
It does not make me useful when I am redundant,
To all who need love, because I am a closed book.
My story already written; read and done.


I have had enough of love to last me a lifetime…
Apparently.
I did not think so before, but now I am sure.
I exist therefore I am alone.
My epitaph scrawled across a cardboard home
And I am alone,
I am alone,
I am alone,
Alone.

Sparks fly


With a killer smile, she gives me whiplash,
As I spin around to see if she really said that.
She did, I gasp, as I take in a deep breath.
This temptress I would like to get into my bed.


As we stare into each other’s eyes,
Telepathic thoughts run between us
And as we grow nearer to each other,
Our thoughts are linked by our desire to touch.


Whispered secrets are exchanged between us
And in lust, we find love…
Now the fuse has been unspun
And ignited, so exciting;
The two of us are so delightfully united.
We are the beast with two backs,
In my mind of fictional thinking.


Eventually, when we can remain apart no more,
Our lips collide together and we are each lifted up.
We spin as one being, arms around, hugging tight.
We dance under the moonbeams and we become a light,
That can be seen from a thousand fathoms.
The electricity that is between us makes lightning happen.
Sparks fly from each of us as we are encased in this love
And with a final, heart-shaped firework explosion…
Our night of love is done.

Your wishes


Hey there beautiful; how the Devil are you?
I was just thinking what to do for you.
Is there anything you need?  I will do it for you.
Just tell me what you want and your wishes will all come true.


Anything you want, your wish is my command;
Come take my hand and you will see I am your man.
I belong to you; do with me what you want.
The only thing I ask of you is, please may I have your love?


This poem is to tell you how I feel when I am around you;
When I can’t be with you I can’t stop thinking about you.
I need your love to make me happy
And maybe, who knows?  We could raise a family.


Wishing I could make you better,
Waiting for a change of weather.
We need the sun to bring us together,
Then we can walk off into the sunset forever.

My nameless love


I could fall deeper and deeper into your eyes for a lifetime.
As I stare into you, I feel truly alive.
With each passing moment,
We are each only wasting such precious time.
We should be together, we exchange glances,
We dance around each other’s feelings, acting like we are alright…


…but all is still wrong, if I have never spoken those words;
I must confess my soul speaks volumes, never seen, never heard
And inside all my thoughts I keep finding your image.
Allow me to love you and I will forever see your love as a privilege.


Let love’s choir raise the roof!  
The two of us could have found somebody to be true to.
But with love there are no definite answers,
Until your hand has been shown;
Has your heart already been enraptured?


With breathless words, I try to speak.
With forgotten gestures, I remain so weak.
With distant wishes, it is always you that I seek,
But still I am this geek; blessed are the meek.
Please share with me what it is you foresee.


Can you picture me holding your hand,
As the world moves all around us, a loss to all plans?
A break in the code,
A glitch in the system.
Lovers swear an oath which has no need to be written.
These promises are to be made, for love never truly fades.
Is this real love or not?  Are we lips to the grave?
We could become all we each could ever need.
My maiden, oh so fair.  Do you too need to be saved?


Let us each shout!  “I want you bad!”
Give me the gift of true love, the likes of which I have never had.
A love that lasts; an unbroken pact.
An oath or bond never broken;
Cure me of my sad.


Light up my heart with your star, set fire to my passion.
I am burning for you, my theatrical attraction.
My muse, my actress, my play on words…
My nameless love.
Let Aa be the bee to your bird.

My destiny.


Never known someone like you,
Never really knew I wanted to,
Until I saw you there.


Never been one to try,
Try and try as I might;
I found it hard to care.


But you came into my life
And changed everything for me.
Now it’s so easy for me to see,
You are the only one that I need.


You are everything to me.
You are my destiny.
