#blacklove
A treat of true intimacy. Towering and assure of himself. He expresses freely his desires, while preparing and providing a safe space for me to do the same. My inner twinges awaken the quiet synapses of my intermind, and are hard at work. Each, vying for the rites of victory! A clash of such, as I yearn to incite and honor his kindness, to reward the goodness that lives so effortlessly in him. Here’s to his innate good measure and warmth he naturally offers. He has been such a good boy!

Thick Of It
My love, my lover, my life. Tall, beared, hued and mysterious. I realized he was mysterious since he only lives in the frontal lobe of my mind. There I anxiously wait for his kiss. Is it crazy to think that a bond so strong will ever exist? I sure hope he does! I am frantically in love with him. This man unknown who has not found me as of yet. I have seen glimpses of him, here and there. With long observation that never compare! I wait, again. Full of emotions. With tears, fears and deep long sighs. I reassure myself that my love, so simple, and true, is near.

Repast For Love Never Known
I'll light every Firework that I can find For you. Every ounce of you, Including the parts That you like to hide. They deserve to be seen And heard too. The next second Not to mention the next year Isn't promised. Although not the same As overseas, There is still reason to celebrate The crackle of firecrackers, The release of red lanterns, To light the street of your heart, As well as the sky. We're not as young as we Used to be. But that doesn't mean that we have To act like it. The fire that courses Through my lungs can't wait To get out and roar Like a dragon, And break the silence In celebration. A red envelope wrapped in fire, And sealed with the flash Of prosperous smiles. Every time I see you, It feels like New Year's. And when you kiss me, My soul sizzles, Stirring up this fire That dances through my body. The next second Not to mention the next year Isn't promised. Tomorrow may not come. If there ever was a time To burn down and sweep up Pieces of our old selves, Why wait?

New Year Comes Twice A Year
You are the sun That peeks Through the window, Letting me know that It's time to get the day Started. You are the roots, Cut and carved from the trees That provide shelter, A place to live, A place to grow. A foundation built From strong roots, That stretch and wrap around me. You are the air that circulates Through my lungs, The air that, if I think about too long, I'll mess up how much You've changed my life. When I am in you, I am not in some house, Nor am I in just any old room. I realize that I am home, That I have everything I need. When I close my eyes, The first thing I see Is you, And how the first thing I want to do is come back To you

Come Back
Regret melts slow, dripping from the side. It feels like skin being tugged against, the impression left from my hand to yours. The anticipation of being patient burns and flickers, excitedly proud to be included. Your back, the wick that stands straight, slowly curving, stretching, releasing tension. Your legs wrapped in mine. If you were to blow too hard, the flame would whoosh, leaving nothing but a puddle. The people we were staring, looking at the mess. The rest of my strength supports your arch, the curled wick that's grown tired against my chest. No matter how you lay, I am comfortable in your wild stretch. Sleep surrounding both of us— I have your back, your heart. The crisp edges of your hair tangled On my head The smoke of desire soots and breathes, dried in a puddle of wax

Puddle of Wax
Hunger changes everything. Although everyone and everything has intention, hunger is no different, no matter what it's for. Your heart, an apple dangling from a branch I could not reach until I became hungry. It became the object not just of affection, but of my appetite. I wanted not only to bite into it, but to savor what makes you, you. I reached until I grabbed it, the apple that is your heart. No matter how the branch swayed, I was determined. Under any other circumstance, I would not have touched it, maintaining composure when it came to the apple of your heart. Overthinking myself out of what could have been one of the most beautiful things, feeling unworthy, until hunger made me notice you more. Want turned to craving, and I realized that the most precious things erode and disappear over time. Half smiling, yet anticipating change, I know that, in time, I, too, will erode remembering how sweet you were, inviting me to quench not just my hunger, but my thirst. After a while, it wasn’t about hunger at all. I just wanted to be close to you

Dry Mouth
Take the scissors, And cut around the edges of my heart. Don't worry about how it looks. Fold whatever part of me That you need to make the first cut. I'd be surprised if you find any part Of me that's folded neat. The kaleidoscope of construction Paper that is me. I consider myself a collection Of scars and different colors— Of the things that I like and dislike. Even the wrinkled pieces of myself I've forgotten about. You've brought light to those pieces With each snip of your scissors. I've noticed how quiet and content You've become. You cut, and I bleed in color— Purple, blue, and yellow. Of all the shapes you've cut, None of them are painful. Watching you mix up the different color pieces of my soul, Your love, the stick glue that Gives these pieces more functionality. I breathe easier, knowing that you're here. No longer restricted By stagnant stillness. You can even fold them into an Airplane and sail across the room. I haven’t had this much fun In a long time. Don't forget the scrap pieces

Playing with Construction Paper
She unravels herself like a rose In the palm of my hand. Some of her petals break off And lay to the side The pain of growth, Making room for something new. She looks me in the eye, The tension of letting go Of reasonable fear. Too many lonely nights. The crescent moon of every lie Hovers over her head. Piece by piece, She's laid that insecurity in my hands, That uncertainty in her eyes, Slowly turning into trust. Seeing that I didn’t discard The pieces of her that flaked off, In my hands. Regardless of how bad they look, They are a part of her. She twists and she turns, Her thorns piercing my skin, One after another. With confidence, I don’t have to tell her That I am not afraid. But I do so anyway. The crescent moon that hangs Above her head fills out And becomes full. As comfortable as she seems, Fear still lingers. No matter how much she Lets go, She's been let down before. In time, my hands will become A vase that will protect her from harm, And my heart a place That will warm her always. When the day comes she knows, With certainty, that I am not afraid, I will still tell her I am not afraid

Brown Skinned Vase
I wonder how it feels. To be snuggled ever so precisely. Skin to skin, like neurons to synapses, sparking, firing pure pleasures of love, for the mate of my soul. A wonder it is to feel. I imagine us to be synchorinzed in such way, that thoughts are completed. Actions are known. He will see the truth even when unshown. Blissful wonder, I long to feel. The absence of something unfamiliar, but nostalgic. I feel him present now, forever near, yet ever eluding. My intertwines long for, aches for, to feel, his touch, yet it remains unknown. His lips, sun, unkissed. I wait in wonder. Not for completion, but for a reunion. Not of family, but of the one, kin of my Soul.

Soul Mate
So the day I say I'm done,and finished with it all.. Was the same day that the house of cards I built began to fall, Karma huffed and puffed and blew it all away, Whether i deserved it or not? well its hard to say, I need to take it easy but im living life the harder way , Living life day to day - there's gotta be a better way, Love Drunk from the potions from Amy's wine house , I sobered up but it was only to find out - Your lion-like roars turned to Microsoft words, I was in my own word - she was in hers, No, I'm not modest and dishonesty's a problem for my nerves, Approach the point of no return? We def on the verge, Better yet the brink, and to think, our past you rubbed away - Washed down the metaphorical sink, And now all sounds of trouble power point to YOU, My mind is now tainted, as you are in my point of view, I'd hate to break the glue we used to make the news, But i have to go away from you - Later boo..

Ms. Take
My pillow misses you more than I do. The way you taste, the way you feel Your kiss echoes goodnight. A sheep lost it's way to the moon tonight. We both lie awake waiting for you The last thought before falling asleep. If it seemed I never missed you you're sadly mistaken & everything in between

Everything in Between
I come to life when you touch me Fluent & continuous. You've unzipped my lips and tossed them to the side. I've never fallen & been caught so freely. I've never paid attention to how flat the world really was. A jagged peninsula Eloped in oceans embrace Curved in explosion. Sometimes it feels like I am Drowning. I've never paid attention to how flat the world really is Chipped off, covered by you falling deeper into you

Flat Blue Sheets
Meeting you gave me the permission I sought in myself. To get out & explore in a sense that it feels like home. Being with you, the best idea yet. Small petite buildings, towering buildings. Everyday feels brand new I don't feel the need to stay cooped up inside a room. With you I want to get out & explore and sleep when there is time. I've never been to a place like this before. I've never tasted food this good before & for once, There are no distractions, no other place to be. The lights that shine from your eyes The thoughts that travel fast like cars. I've never been to a city like this before, the best idea yet. When people ask me where I've been I call your name. When friends ask me where I'm going I call your name. And I can't wait until I get back there

A City Full of You
She came from heaven & laid her head Down next to mine. It felt like I had crawled into the sun & Realized that everything was not what it seemed. She became an island One my emotions began to explore, Simplified to pacing in circles walking back and forth. She came from heaven & laid her head Down next to mine. I'd realized that I never seen the sun set. My gratitude today hopeful of the invitation into tomorrow. She defies the gravity of my world

Defy Gravity
Through the red joysticks And white & blue slap buttons. Without the advancement of memory cards Or weird split screens to distract. My last life is always the one I save for you, Through the experience points and colorful gems There’s much more to explore. My first wow, my first time, my next again & Again. No matter how many times I feel like I lose, You’re the reason I always get back up. My initials fill all ten slots of your heart, Until you're decommissioned and pulled Out of stock. There they will always remain

Red Joysticks
I've never had anyone look At me the way that you do. The first time I saw it, I tried To catch it but missed. Much like a shooting star Fast & fleeting. I remember the look on your face, The pieces of gold shone by the light. Your eyes, they do something to me In my collective thought. They break down an insane amount Of answers to questions I've never Thought to think. I've never had much luck when it comes to money, but I can imagine the amount of fear that makes someone insane off the thought of losing it. Today, tomorrow, always. To look up and see your eyes, A not so hidden pleasure Fast & fleeting. Out in the open and still somehow manage to miss it. The second, third, as well as fourth I plan to catch

Mid-Sneeze
My bed may not be as large As California or have a blanket As deep as the ocean. But it’s comfy and shares The same view as if we were there. When I am asleep with you, Everything becomes ideal. One of the best feelings the universe Could bestow. To discover a slice of heaven beside you. A spoon finding it’s way To the big dipper, in the same Lineage of how I see you. We stargaze with our eyes closed, Watching the stars bloom like flowers In complete comfort. The urge to explore further, A simple look, a simple smirk Head nestled deep in a pillow. The aspirations of becoming an astronaut Become that much clearer. I blast off & everything becomes dark My reflection staring at yours beneath mine, Until I see your face spread wide Across the moon. Happy and safe, My voyage is now complete

I feel most at home When I am beside you. I am able to breathe freely & abundantly. You speak kindly to my soul, & nurture the points of direction Which I grow. My sanctuary of peace, My birds eye view of serenity. I feel most at home When I am in view of your garden. Offering the utmost Of warmth & affection. Make no mistake, I am not there to simply pass time Nor am I there out of the convenience Of you. Being around you takes me to another world & I am glad to share in the experience Of you. I am in awe at how you transform me Into a moth, in terms of light. I’ll follow you anywhere

Anywhere there's Peace
For years my heart was guarded, protected from the world. But somehow you have disarmed me, opened and unfurled. You’ve taken me, broken and damaged, mishandled and hurled . Yet you see me as delicate and dainty, so precious and pearled. Everything’s not perfect but it sure is beautiful here. Your smile so bright with a voice I just love to hear. Your touch, so gentle I just want to have you near. I love your energy and your presence, you make everyone else disappear. He has captured my trust and that’s something not easily given. He has made all my worries forgotten and all of my heartache is forgiven. His mission was to win my heart and made his goal clear, he was driven. After plenty of chances to earn my trust, I’d finally decided to give in. I feel so loved, so valued, so cared for so protected. He has won me over and I doubt I’ll ever regret it. To a man who truly cares for me and satisfies my every need. For you have saved me from my darkness, and my heart you have freed.

Your body is a vacation, the perfect spot to getaway. Over the mound of your thigh the sun is high & the fun has yet to begin. I love how your skin feels between my hands. How small you make everything around feel. I apologize for putting you off for so long. A year or two from now, I won't regret how fast I packed my bag & left to come visit. A year or two from now, I'll tell everyone my favorite place to vacate. How easy the language was to learn, To bathe in the sun of your smile & splash in the ocean of your body. The weather is always perfect, The adventures that await beneath your dress. I apologize for putting you off for so long. A year or two from now, I'll still remember the smell of fresh peaches, Served in thick nectar. Compliments of being the perfect guest, the first to check in & the last to leave. Still viewing the sights, things that'll last twenty years from now, without hesitation or worry. The only thing left to unpack is you & Memories of you

Off For So Long
When I am with you The sun shines it’s absolute brightest. Not a single cloud in the sky. No matter what side of town we’re on, No matter what we do. All I see is clear skies, no matter what they say. Even if it does, so what. I am with you. My own personal parade, beautiful In every way. When you walk pass, everyone & Everything stops. Pretty brass skin, your voice smooth As silk. When I am with you, the sun shines It’s absolute brightest & I am at ease. The best part of the day, No matter what side of town, No matter what we wear. The sun shines it’s absolute best When we’re together. Not a single drop of rain comes to mind, Not a single drop

Not A Single Drop
There are over a million things To do in the name of pleasure. Over a million more that involves Company. The person I could be, The person I’d love to be, Over a million things that could go wrong. This thought a wave pattern found In an ocean of sheets, The shore of the mattress bare. The meeting of my fingers interlocked With yours, The earth rotates & bends sideways. Without hesitation we are poured Up down left & right, Over a million things that could go wrong. Lost at sea in complete darkness I cling to you to keep warm. Lost in the earth, you blush morning. Shedding light to infinity. Your face a cathedral of a million things That could go right. Smushed & paused in excitement. Finally. A religion that doesn’t require A curriculum. The earth rotates & bends, I am baptized in the liquid from Your lips & like a fish I am alive, & like a fish I can breathe without fear That you’d be stolen & renamed Without fear that you’d be stolen & renamed. Robbed of over a million things That could go right, Between the sheets we hide. I cling to you to keep warm, lost in the earth You blush morning. Shedding light to infinity. Finally. A religion that doesn’t require A curriculum. The person I could be, The person I’d love to be, Without fear. I wander you freely

Freely
There are fireworks Everywhere. Small & big reminders Of everywhere we’ve been. Above the rooftops, above our Top lips, in tremendous fashion. Spread far, your soul & mine. I couldn’t imagine life Without you. Something out of the blue, Loud & breathtaking. How we’ve inspired each other In quick rocket bursts. If nothing else we’ve learned That in a matter of minutes It can all come to an end. The way you kiss me & The ethos of traveling souls Finding a color to forever live in. I’ve found a place, there are Fireworks everywhere. If nothing else, we’ve learned That in a matter of minutes it can all come to an end. & when it does, I’ll race you To the top & kiss you and Every memory I have of you. The cosmos of left over Gunpowder & shredded paper All combustible in our celebration. With eyes closed, & the sizzling palpitation of my heart. Possibly the biggest reminder. Whenever I see fireworks, I think of you

Loud & Breathtaking
The best days of my life Where’d you go? Time flies trying to fit in As much as you can. Sleep barely comes Running round losing track Of time. No one to tell you to stop, Kind of loud Kind of subtle. The best days of my life. Staying up all night Not a care in the world. Where’d you go? The best of everything, So little time. Trying to fit in as much As you can. They tell you that these Are the best, You never realize until It’s gone. Memories of when we met Memories of when we spent The night. The things we got caught doing, But no one said a word. Sleep barely comes Lost somewhere having fun. The best days of my life, Where’d you go?

Real love lives in your eyes, It lives in your smile. It's even shared through the extension Of your hand. Real love is exceptional & phenomenal, Much like a cassette tape wound up In emotion. Real love is realistic & finds a way to communicate, no matter How hard the emotion. Real love travels with you. Real love lives & breathes the same Breath as you. The beat of your heart divine & Echos mine. Real love remembers the day my heart met yours, Although it's been quite a while, Real love still remembers your name & Although cassette tapes are a bit Outdated. I still remember staying up all night Listening to the sound of your Voice. No matter the instrument, Real love finds a way
