you were cruel
the intoxicating type of cruel
the type that'll lure me to you

to everyone you'd be a monster,
to me
you're one cruel son of a gun..
the type I'll be keeping
forever.

now what's really cruel is how much you ignore me,
how much you make me jealous
it makes me insane, love...

just please be more gentle with my heart?
don't use it like a punching bag...
I beg of you..

Under the silvered light of a thousand moons,
Where shadows stretch like whispered truths,
We begin our dance, a waltz of souls,
Through valleys deep, where time unfolds.

Hand in hand, we cross the plains,
Of joy and sorrow, love's refrain,
Your touch, a breath upon my skin,
A promise made, a life within.

Our footsteps echo through the years,
A cadence soft, dispelling fears,
In every rise, in every fall,
We find our rhythm, we heed love's call.

Through storm and sun, through night and day,
Our hearts beat in a boundless sway,
Each twirl, a memory, rich and pure,
A bond unbroken, strong, secure.

We dance on cliffs where eagles soar,
And down in depths where oceans roar,
The world a stage beneath our feet,
In every moment, life complete.

The seasons change, the years grow old,
Yet in your arms, I never fold,
Through winter's chill or summer's blaze,
In your eyes, I find my gaze.

We spin through realms both dark and bright,
In endless circles, day and night,
And when the stars above us fade,
We'll dance in shadows, unafraid.

For love, my dear, knows no demise,
It only deepens, never dies,
A fire eternal, burning strong,
Through every dusk, through every dawn.

We'll dance on through the silent night,
Through dreams unseen, beyond all sight,
And when the world falls still and quiet,
Our hearts will keep a secret riot.

For in this dance, we find our truth,
An ageless vow, eternal youth,
No end, no start, just endless grace,
In every step, a love embraced.

And when the final curtain falls,
When silence wraps these ancient halls,
We'll dance into the great unknown,
Two shadows in a twilight zone.

Yet even then, beyond the veil,
Our love will rise, it will not pale,
For love, you see, it transcends time,
An endless waltz, a sacred rhyme.

So take my hand, we'll dance once more,
Through every sky, through every shore,
In life, in death, we'll find our way,
In love, forever, we shall stay.

When you promised me 'forever'
I was too foolish to think
To imagine that you'd keep your word
Because you never did

You never even tried...
I was taught that those things
Should be felt louder than heard
The LANGUAGE OF
❤️ LOVE ❤️,
it has
NO WORDS,
It's EXPRESSED
in the way that you FEEL,
It SHOWS in your DEMEANOR, and
YOUR HEART SKIPS A BEAT,
In REALITY,
this❤️ LOVE ❤️ is SO REAL!!!
When you are in
❤️ LOVE ❤️,
you just can't help,
to be with
your ONE and ONLY,
A RELATIONSHIP
that is SO VERY TRUE,
FLOURISHING into a
BEAUTIFUL
❤️ LOVE ❤️ STORY,
THROUGH
THICK and THIN,
the ❤️ LOVE ❤️ OF YOUR LIFE,
THROUGH
HELL and HIGH WATERS,
You PUSH, FIGHT and STRIFE,
This ❤️ LOVE ❤️ is FOREVER,
WILL IT END,
NO!!!!!
NEVER!!!
WE'LL FIGHT for this ❤️ LOVE ❤️
Through GOOD and BAD WEATHER,
THE LANGUAGE OF ❤️ LOVE ❤️,
CAN SOMETIMES
BE TOUGH, but
❤️ LOVE ❤️, is a BATTLEFIELD,
YEAH!!!,
IT COULD BE ROUGH!!!
NO MATTER THE CASE,
WE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH,
IT WON'T CHANGE THE FACT, THAT
I TRULY
❤️❤️❤️LOVE YOU❤️❤️❤️!!!!!

There's a want to be wrong
Wanted for so long
So long it seems like a folk song
Rather than a foregone conclusion
Just another drawn in lexicon
A childish tantrum replayed like a sing-a-long
'Till the real "want" is gone
And I have to admit I have no idea what's goin' on

Forever counting sheep,
Gotta be up to infinity
I'm sure though,
Any day now,
I'll get to see what my dreams might be

Even before
My feet hit the floor
I'm short a dollar
And a day late for what's in-store

For a moment we’re in perfect harmony.
There is no fear. No worry.
Finding purpose in each other.
Whether the shadows creep through the night.
Or the sun lives out loud during the day.
There is but a moment
Followed by an embrace, then a click.


Unlocking parts of you that I only anticipate.
Though circumstances may vary.
This moment I relive, even away from you.
The way that you sigh, the way that you
Twist and the way that you turn.
No matter where I’ve been.
You tumble then you click for all to hear.


A sigh released into forever.
Echoing down its hallway.
No matter how tight you squeeze.
I am here.
No matter how stubborn you may become.
I am here.
Until the day I no longer exist.


No matter how many hands I may pass through.
I can never replace the way that you hold me.

I want someone to love me in the same way
that James Arthur wrote "Say You Won't Let Go."
and all of his other songs

Couldn’t hear half the night but I didn’t care
Chatter ebbing and flowing
floating over the conversation, our conversation

She laughed soundly at another joke and they passed the chowder knowing we just had to try it
I smiled so hard I had to look away

This is a poem about friendship
The tingles you feel on the side of your face when someone’s trying to catch your attention
Smirks that transcend tabletop landscapes

Crowing madly at memories a decade old
We gather another round of courage
Debting any consequence of today to tomorrow
Tonight we make up lost time by sharing a past
