Jenny dance
in front
of eyes
that candy
is sweet
not butter
in sleeves
of her
patriot but
her belligerence
in trees
as she
stares the
ligament in
his ribs
in back
of Cajun
a sleeve in despair

it envelopes me
like the ocean,
i sink slowly,
it's dark
and becomes darker
until everything is black,
my face is wet,
it tastes like this ocean,
my eyes close
as the darkness grabs me
and clings to me
and whispers to me,
i am nothing
and i am sorry,
it drags me deeper
until i am no more,
it's dark,
but this ocean feels so warm
around me
This is part 2 of my latest poem hope you all enjoy!!

I once was a dancer and when I moved it felt like flying and falling, beautifully like art. With him, I stood on his feet and we danced around the room, waiting for the late hour to come. And when he let go I remembered those years on that stage when I flew through the air. I must have forgotten how to spin without his hands to turn me, how to land without his arms to catch me. So when I found my old shoes and uniform in the attic, I remembered how beautiful I was before I even had him.

L'abîme ne pourrait l'enterrer
Le vide ne pourrait l'engloutir
Alétheia ne peut douter
De ce que je souhaite accomplir.

T'aimer de la plus forte manière
Comme s'il n'existait un hier
Te jurer passion, main dans la main
Comme s'il n'existait un demain

Je te veux
Les vagues assourdissent mes paroles
Je t'embrasse
Désormais c'est mon cœur qui s'affole
Je t'enlace
Les vents décident de s'attendrir  
Je te caresse
On peut voir le Soleil s'élargir

Je t'aime
Mon âme se détache de toutes ses peines

Tu es mon soleil,
  Ma lune et toutes
Mes étoiles.

Yet you continually shatter my heart
Into a millions pieces
I loved you like it was my last wish
Yet you took me it granted
My love for you burned inside of me
Like a wildfire
Yet you continued to extinguish it
And still.
It burned
Loving you is like a tunnel
Eventually,
I will find the light
At the end.

Mon soleil
Ma lune
Et mes étoiles

Je t’aime avec tout mon coeur.

Plein air, plein air
B r e a t h e
But I crave the city

the sound it runs
among the trees
a nameless thing
Awakens

the green, such green
G A Z E
I drink the shadow
lying between

the sun it falls
below its line
The birds they cry
placate them

the time, the time
B L I N K
But I mourn the dash

the mind it stops.
see how dead the wooded can be

infinitely
small
moment.

Love; a voice filled with desire, like the song of a siren; like the call of emptiness

****** into the void; I'm yours
Louise!
I kiss you gently like I kissed your ***.

I'm looking for the woman; my belly on the floor, skin like silk, our mouths full of passion and wine.

The spirit of the stairs,  
I love you Louise but I know that you can never be mine.

Oh love, love, love, love I know that you can never be mine,
Oh love, love, love, love,
our mouths full of passion and wine.

Oh love, love, love, love I know that you can never be mine,
I love you Louise with every inch of me, but I know that you shall never be mine.
je t'aime

L'amour, une voix remplie de désir,
comme le chant d'une sirène;
comme l'appel du vide.

aspiré dans le vide;
Je suis à toi Louise!
Je t'embrasse doucement juste comme j'ai embrassé ton I' sexe.

Je cherche la femme;
mon ventre par terre,
peau comme de la soie,
nos bouches pleines de passion et de vin.

L'esprit des escaliers,
Je t'aime Louise mais je sais que tu ne seras jamais à moi.

Oh amour, amour, amour, amour!
Je sais que tu ne peux jamais être à moi

Oh amour, amour, amour, aime nos bouches pleines de passion et de vin.

Oh amour, amour, amour, amour!
Je sais que tu ne peux jamais être à moi

Je t'aime Louise avec chaque pouce de moi,
mais je sais que tu ne seras jamais à moi.
