If I told you that the sun rises with you
You would tell me that it didn't rise
The earth only rolled
If I told you the sun set with you
You would roll your eyes
'Hmmph,' your response
But I see through you

A structured reply
Your eyes dilate, your heart thumps
The smallest smile, not on your lips
But cornered by your eyes
It's a map so easily read

If I write you those words
You'll say to me, spectacular
And become a candle, light
Wax melting in to the night
Because in this real life,
You've become so hidden
In ink it's different

In life you've your shadow
And your shadow you've become real
Choosing which and how and why
It's control, like a mask, like beauty
But I don't exist for your shadow

I mention your lights
From candles to stars
In your eyes and on your skin
Your mindlight, in moonlight
Sunlight and starlight
How do you describe
Something so...

Beyond words
How do you describe
A force, but to give in
And ride, surf
It's nothing I control

When it was bad
You wouldn't give me a chance
Throw it all away
Waste another year
I asked you, pleaded

What could I do?
How could I save?
The answer was simple
Like everything else
And easy when you think
If you could do any one thing
To save who you love, what would it be?

When I look at your face,
I see the pain right below
Make up covers scars
only you think you see
imperfections

I see you on the verge of tears
so often, my helplessness becomes anger
You are determined to be strong
To never reach for help, and
You use this to pull away from me
I can tell from the way you breath
Your heartbeat, in your neck

I know you'll read this and think
Of running, flight, stay away
And you'll retreat, won't touch me
But I can tell, when you touch me
And your Other One does

I know you like the night
How it breathes, its breeze through trees
The sound of its creatures, it smallest creak
I see you without the moonlight
Naked, shivering, proud and fight
Its my fault you won't open,
I know this as a truth

As much as you know its not
There is something else, deep inside you, too
It'll take some time, but I believe what I am to you is true
You are the best I have met for secrets, keeping the past untrue
In the end, later, time spins, I'll be here for you

You looked at me and said,
That I write our secrets, to spread
Everyone will know, just intentions to dread
I didn't say anything, because they already know
They're all poets, like you, holy and spread

To me, I don't care, they are no one to know
So what, what they think, unless for your heart they attempt
They are not worth an audience, spectators who didn't pay
This is not entertainment, this is my heart
Absolutely and completely, open

A desperate attempt
Dramatic, singing for you
To gather you back, make amends for my part
To speak your language, so you can learn my heart
Maybe make sense, all these two years apart

But the future is more
Important to me, my life is with you
To honestly be
Because when I see you, I think
Of beauty defined
No matter your scars
No matter your tide

Those are not imperfections
Nor even bumps in the road
I accept them as 'is'
Nothing more
I want you to just open your eyes

See the future, a size
Our love as together, more us than me
Our heart, to forgive, hold and keep tight
Because that would mean, our hearts beat as one
Our eyes see us together, all imperfections made one
I would give anything for this, let you see from me
Because you are beautiful, and I want to be a part of your light

It falls, more of a drip
Flowing, warmth, and slick
It tastes so sweet, teasing
Smooth, lubricating, and wet
I can make it rain
Taste it's anytime I like
Only have to rub the bottle
Polish it's parts, glean it's magic
Insert a quarter and pay my due
It's a candy machine
I open my mouth below
Let it all pour down
Gulp and swallow
Like a big child
Happiness smeared all over my mouth
Such a big mess, laughing
Go wash your face!
But I don't listen
Always rebel
Go after more
That sweet candy
Eat it well

When she walks
Something happens
It's in the air
How she moves it
Or it around her
Maybe it's her aura

But colors seem brighter
And if she walks across the grass
It's not just greener
It leans toward her
Like they confuse her
The sun shines less brighter
It's shine more just a shimmer

Child-like, innocent
It's a game she plays
Where she says something
But she knows different
Not sure if it's cute
But if there's a laugh,
She'll second

Much of life is fames
Who knows who
What is slimmer
Not for her
Just simple

I love her
Innocence
Her beauty and simmer
(I wish she wouldn't)
Locks of black
**** akimper
Gemini, two all looking at one

A May's chyld, through
Skipping for sake
Lost on purpose
Perfectly happy
Grass too long

Here I know better
All beneath the lake
Her beauty's her mask
Not quite acting
But not true
Diverting attention
Skirting the questions

Not wanting to answer
Every answer askew
Not the question
But an answer for you, man
Only to find, men don't care

Now when one does
She's forgotten the test
Lost, too many not to care
She cringes behind
Soft, big brown eyes
I love yous and kisses
And hugs that hide

Maybe she knows
That this is real
Her heart is safe
No retreat
Always
Real

All I want
Is to build you up
Heal your soul
Bring you peace
Lift you up
Feel your love
Kiss your lips
Face, hands and feet
Cup your face
Stroke your hair
Keep you safe
See smiles on your face
Protect your life
Die in your service
Live for every moment
Just for your touch
A look, a glance
I love, my Love
Only you
Just only

Some might think its worship
To love unconditionally
No matter what is done or said
Giving someone that much power
So much control

It's about responsibility
A gesture of hope
Maybe, no
Definitely of trust
Probably scary; true
Freedom always is
More, it's giving you

You might ask,
Why; Not me
But I was not given the choice
It's not something
I control

It's raw, emotional ocean waves
Golden grains in seas of plains
The mountain ranges crashing
Against stretching Earth below
The stars ****** down light
Millions of years old
This isn't a drop, drip

This emotion is bigger
Overwhelming is not the right word
Because it's not, it's just huge
I'm not drowning in this
It brings me life

Too feel alive
Someplace once so cold
You gave me this
So to give back to you
This is love

Unconditional

Legs crossed, demure
Sandals, strapped well
Won't come off, but
If they might,
It would hanging, playing
Gently shaking, unconsciously
Held by toes, a highly arched foot

The dress is long, fitting well
Huggy on the hips, in the waist
Showing little skin, but proudly
All the curves
Angelic

Her skin glows, like a panther
She walks, not a stride but sure
She holds her purse, her lifeline
Under one arm as she checks her phone
She pauses, thumbs come alive
Fingers strike, quick, striking, tapping
Almost a tattoo, string music

Then she walks again
The dress has colors
I don't see, all I see is lines
Curves, beauty, in stride
Appreciation of motion

She is the embodiment of everything
From one side of passion
To its extreme, like a storm
Elemental, her nature
Set to a piano's sound
Matching her walk
And her thoughts

Some might say I love her
But it's a perfect word
Too short, too simple
But any other wouldn't be right
It's no mistake being what it is

She is wearing her hair up
A ravens nest, each hair in place
Her slender, perfect neck, ****
Shoulders sway, arms too
Not a busy body, but confident
Something she doesn't, can't see
She's too close to see clear

But it's everything about her
Unconsciously, she shows
Her true self
Everyone who sees
Falls in love

She gets ready
Like she knows she's
Special
Like deep inside
She knows the truth
And it's the way I see her

It's her pleasure
To look just perfect
To be the rose
Highlighting
Subtly sensual
And alluring
Beautiful

Her little smiles, almost jeweled
Eyes just right, diamonds
Sparkling, happy smiles
Tipping their corners tight
Gems in the bedroom light

It's a magic number
Never lonely,
A history in the past
Always again, again,
And once more again

It surfaces repeatedly
Always in the pattern
It's a singular certainty
But by threes
Happenstance, maybe
Coincidence, ok
Maybes

But it's been for years
Three weeks, months, years
Like guard in hell
Too easy to blame the number
Doesn't let you out

But take the number
It's in your palm
That's the trick
If you know the pattern
Use the pattern

Look at the number
First is always honey
Moon's easily reprieve
Second is the morning after
Dawn's soonest drift
Third the learning
Of souls, reflections bold

Always in phase
From one to another
Memories dredge up
To say, no, don't let this be
Whisper, destroyed, wasted soul

Maybe it says
You don't have the right
Not to happiness or delight
Cursed to break
Not Midas Touch

But this is not what I see
To me, you are the purest soul
Childish in joke, quick to laugh
Passion unbridled, sharp of tongue
Brightly alight, witty and alive
Full of fight, free flying sight
Clean and shining, white

If only I could give you
The sight of you
How I see you
Beautiful, awesome
Might
