You're a hickey on my neck,
bruised and red,
marking your territory,
refusing to fade.

On the day you were born -  I felt full wonder and joy.
                   First time you called me daddy, it completely changed my life,
       and that moment you started making your own first footsteps,
suddenly I received some wings.

Each time we get separated, I get completely blind.
But only one thought, of having you, keeps making me see again.

I am able to realize sunrise, just when I see your eyes.
                 I can not stop thinking of you all the time.
       It is a force ; I can not move you away from my thoughts,
cause precious daughter, you are mine,  and I am yours.

Your mama tells you everyday that your daddy doesn't care about us-
                     that your daddy is someone you can't trust.
She is trying to make you forget me, she is trying to make you hate me.

Each time we get separated, I get completely blind.
But only one thought, of having you, keeps making me see again.

I am able to realize sunrise, just when I see your eyes.
                 I can not stop thinking of you all the time.
       It is a force ; I can not move you away from my thoughts,
cause precious daughter, you are mine,  and I am yours.

oh, clever one
with the bass heart
for whom love
and pleasure part

drinking in my
silent screams
must you haunt
my bitter dreams?

i be yours
and i be hers
from one a kiss
from both a curse

we wait for you
one slave, one queen
fierce day, soft night
and in-between

an one is caught
but one will die
for sweetness speaks
naught but a lie

Will I be able to look into a pair of dark eyes
without imagining how nice it would feel
if those were yours?
Will I be able to laugh my heart out
without having the urge to tell you
the stupid joke I just heard?
Will I be able to be completely happy
*without you at all?

time is what I'm waiting for
the right time.
i have never been more anxious in my life
and here i am waiting for the moment i will, you know.
i have to be careful or the moment will pass
seize your moments....

Your smile was a blessing when my heart felt ****** to wandering a barren, pathetic wasteland.
Your arms were a safety net for a soul stuck in free fall for longer than it can remember.
Your eyes were warm fountains of water for muscles that were torn and sore from years of fighting losing battles.
Your heartbeat was a meditative drum that could calm me when nothing seemed to matter anymore.
You're my sun, my moon, and the air around me, and I promise that even if you aren't mine, my heart will always be yours.

Maybe it was just me
Maybe it was all in my head
That I thought there was something more
That you were something else

Maybe it meant nothing to you
Maybe it wasn't what it seemed to be
That you did it out of pity
That you were there to merely be of comfort

After all the times we spent
After all the memories we shared
You put them all aside
You disregarded everything

I cannot blame you for it
I cannot change your mind
Because you were never mine
And I was never yours

Still, I felt no regrets
I felt only a little pain
Thankful for your existence
Thankful that we crossed paths

Someday, we shall find our own destiny
And learn to settle with our own fate
So that when we meet again
Our smiles will reflect each other's *happiness

I'm through loving you with my heart
For it expires
It expires like everything else
In my body
I want to love you with my soul
To stand the test of time
To last beyond a lifetime
I want to be able to say,
"I'm all yours."
Without anything in this universe
Contradicting my statement.
I'm all yours.

-D.D.
