Oh my darling,
Listen to the song of love
My heart pours out for you
The melody of winter blues

As long as we are here
Sitting beside the fire
I can tell you a thousand stories
And make you forget how to blink

Silence is the gift of night
To hear the rhythms of heart
And to explore the land of thoughts
Only if you care to understand

So promise that you won't leave
Hold my hand till the sunrise
Live these moments and breathe in
The magic of this cool breeze

There they sat on the park bench.
Both of their legs draped across the same knee.
Their shoulders were at ease, laid back against the bend.
They've sat for hours, the few people whom come and gone.
With shoes made for comfort, their heel felt the breeze.
Faces stretched in laughter, deep wrinkles found their shirt.
His arm napped around her, cheeks held up high.
She looked up ever so slightly nudging him with her elbow.
Time flew by, another afternoon spent in the park.

 

They looked straight ahead.
Orange leaves fell from the tree, she leaned closer to him.

Time walked right on by

May your heart see my words
On this night of wind and rage.

I know that you are in search of refuge
from pressures seen and unseen.

I will comfort you from the ebb and flow
of the night tide and this, too, will pass.

Take your rightful place in my arms.  
My body is a shelter from the storm.

Don’t speak. Just breathe. Cry, if you must.
Let our silence shield us from the storm.

And when you awake that storm will be
nothing more than an aimless zephyr.

My heart wants you to stay with me,
but you are the daughter of the storm.

You find rest and peace in my arms,
but the wind and rage speak to you.

The sky cracks and the rain falls,
baptizing you in dark water.

I know the night tide will take you.
And I will stay here with open arms.
Terra Nov 2017
You call me the one while holding a mirror
The cracks you see will always be mine

Smile or frown, not but a shallow grave,
never gave it much thought
All will be bygones soon enough

Yet at night, or at dawn, my heart softens
With wine it turns to liquid

Quicksilver love
Creatures in winter fog
And I yearn for the light touch of fingers against velvet, the curve of my back

To the right music my heart will break into
a thousand pieces of delicate porcelain

Division bell in a lighthouse at the west coast in Denmark
Oh, put me back together, you,
with golden poetry and call me art
Give me your story of choice

And did you know?

When the sun hits the snow and makes it sparkle like your warm, ice blue eyes I want to cry
Tears of unfathomable, unreasonable pain

The beauty of it all, the beauty of you,
of fireflies whirling trough cities, lost in dreams

Still

My inner life is but a daydream
Oh, words, please fail me
My smile, please betray me
I cannot live up to this oasis of emotions

The wall is too high
The wall is too thick

And honesty would break our hearts
Jayson Engay Nov 2017
You make me feel so weak
Having these emotions and thoughts so deep
I'm falling
I'm drowning
I'm catching my breath
The more deeper it gets
Maybe I'm trap here, forever
The two of us, will never be together
Lizzie Nov 2017
I wrote a song for you
But I forgot the tune
When I looked into your eyes
Ev'ry thought fleeted my mind

I never did believe
In something like you and me
Such a love seemed
Like something from a dream

But now here is proof
I was wrong in all I knew
Because our love is true
In everything we do

When we're sitting here together
Me and you forever
Our hearts in harmony sing
Yet no one says a thing

You know my heart was broken
When "be mine" was spoken
Because it beat so hard
That it fell right apart

No chains could contain
No person put to shame
Our thumping hearts in sync
Love flowing o'er the brink

Now this song is done
But there is another one
Always in the air
Around the one I care
Kewayne Wadley Nov 2017
Love is but a rope wrapped tight in various knots.
Just when you think you have one undone; the next is a bit harder
to undo.
If not careful it becomes tighter and the moment of anticipation
begins to fade.
This hurricane of twisted thread, bind as rope.
Willful to this release.
Time is key to those deserving;
Creating a memory that will last forever.

I always have these fantasies,
where I am with my crush.
We're both lying on the bed,
and cuddling.
Hugging and calming eachother.
I think it's lovely.
Do they think the same?
Nakia Nov 2017
So...you came out of nowhere.
But you make my heart beat right out of my chest.
And I know I just showed up too.
Playing hide and seek in the dark and light of your mind.
And I know I get that too.
I know you get all nervous when we get close.
I can tell that we obviously aren't just good friends.
We rush into each other so quickly.
Grasping to every difference in the other and also the similarities.
You're like the puzzle piece I'm missing.
I would check every place in all the rooms of the house to find you again if I lost you for one second.
It's like each piece interlocks.
Snapping together mentally and physically.
We're two different colors blended together on the same canvas, creating one beautiful shade.
I know you look at me from the corner of your eye.
I know you care about what I say a bit more than the others.
I never knew I held light but,
You tell me despite the fact that I can't see your dark
I cast light on it.
I feel it.
I know you feel how I can go from a total wreck to a tiny little plant.
Taking in every ounce of sunshine you provide.
I know I level you down to earth and
Somehow
Though we've started at two different places
With somehow alike and different views
we've came back to where we started.
Together this time.
A little more happier than we used to be.
And probably a little more dumb.
I love you.
