She's trouble so they say
She'll slay your heart
Tear it apart
Never mind her history
She's a mystery
Neglected as a child
Emotional abuse
she hates men
Does she have a reason?

behind her eyes lesions and cuts to her soul
Though they call her **** and say she's out of control
She yearns and burns for a man who will calm her inner being
See the hurting girl inside who's trapped in her own head
Instead of taking her to bed for a one night stand
A love that hold her through the lonely hours
A love that will never sour
Or grow cold
Or scold her for being her
A love that inspires fire
That comforts her
and talks her through agonising visions of the past
A love that lasts.

No vacation compares to the comfort I find in your eyes. They are these big bright headlights that I can't help but stare at while they careen into me. There's a moment when our eyes meet before we kiss. A smile is exchanged. And I look away for a moment. Only to return to your gaze dumbfounded as to why I could have been so lucky to have this half second of joy. They close as I get closer with my own in tow. And with slight hesitation your lips meet mine. There in that moment is exactly what I asked for and something I could never quite put my finger on. It's the moment my heart jumps in the deep end, and I feel like anything could be said with out judgement. I whisper how awkward I am. You giggle or sigh. I pull back. Say goodbye even though I don't want to. You depart and with you leaves Comfort. Until our next embrace.

Because of you
Grey turns black
Dying flower blooms
Thinly pale rose blushes
Muddy clay turns a statue
Heart beats for love songs
Because of you
Skinny senile dame turns vernal
Your hands holding mine
With the same first love for me !

I wanna spend my time with you
I don't really allot my time like this
I usually just waste it
But now I know where I want it to go
I want to spend it just to see your smile
Just to hear your laugh and fake cries
To mess your nesty hair
Admire your face
Memorize every trace of it and just keep you
To go grocery shopping with you
Go restaurant hopping with you
Pay bills with you
Buy a new air conditioner when the one we have breaks
Paint the walls of our home
Contemplate on which color scheme we want
Hold your hand as we walk places
Watch timeless movies while we're wrapped up in our quilt
Dance to EDM, just the two of us
Pass out next to each other
Go out late at night just to drink coffee
Cover our favorite love songs
Read books
Watch YouTube videos
Have tricycle rides
Manage our lives
Argue about big and small things
Cry
Storm out
Crawl back into each others' arms
Knowing that its the only place where we've felt so much love
Do adult stuff, together
Carry you to bed when youve had too much too drink
Kiss your forehead while you sleep
Take care of you
Love you
Over and over
And not get tired of doing so
That's all I wanna do with whatever time I have left
Just...
Spend it all on you
Because you
Of all things
Are most definitely
The one and only thing
That matters to me.

When our daily work in this life has been almost done
and with fleeting worldly pleasures we've had our fun,
what else is there in the remaining time left for us to do?
but seek to know That which is of lasting value and true.
----------------------------
From "The Quatrains' ongoing writings since the early '90's.
Your eyes tell the truth
right through to your heart and soul
until we grow old.

There you are with your flaws
And I still love you
I love you for every piece of who you are
Not just your smile or the fact
that you make me happier
I love every part of you
Even the sides that I don't understand
Or the corner that brings me to tears
And you should know
That I shall love you
Even if I'm afraid of the void
And i'm not sure if I have wings
To fly.

Relative
Expansion
of Art can
get
impressive

done for
more
then
the name

humans, fate
levitates

praise
to
the ones
that innovate

till this date
the ancients can
relate,

keep them higher  
then the sun rising

daily for the mind
of the one that can
leave something on this Earth

it will forever be sung,
even if
it fell sunk, legends of the times
erupt,
any given time, of us,
here, all together

they come,
with love oh what a rush,
plush,
death hushed,
for the moment
that happens
time stops
emotions come lapsing.
Calibrated souls coming active.
Atlas, can't stop this.
Humans.
Lasting Artist of the Earth, in which we harvest.

I know this is an adjustment mom But I also know it's one you understand. And I think that might be what scares you. Because I've never felt this way before. As many times as I've fallen it's always been the feeling of a freefall, waiting for the ground to catch me, or waiting for my stomach to catch up with the gravity and find its way back to my abdomen instead of my throat. But this time around, falling feels more like flying. And planning feels sort of freeing. And our plan has been to go with the flow and we haven't much worried about it otherwise. But this flow has us underhandedly talking about children and the future as if they belong to us, as we, not just he and me, separately. And I haven't built my home in a person, but it's in this person that I have found home. It was built before I was here. But I feel like I was meant to roam the halls of his heart. And maybe this honeymoon phase won't last. But we know each other, he and I. And because of that I feel confident in wanting this to do just that, and last. I want him to be my first love and my last...
