loose jeans
Skinny jeans, black cardi Iphone 8 with that cracked screen Eyebags from assignments overdue Longing for a natural view Outside the screens and books too I need to ask "How do you do?"

This college girl I met
Faded glory Prayers on slim fit jeans Foreign to victory Leading to second story pleas Can you hear her? Despairing with whispered screams But tears don’t answer The many questions they bring Faded glory $20 when on sale See the story Of the strongest of the frail Can you see her? Wishes to fly, though she barely crawls There’s a glimmer Prevailing amidst the falls Faded glory Well worn and stretched to fit Constant weathering Pushing on till something rips Can you feel her? Is there a choir that recognizes her song? Are you a singer? Are your jeans ripped but still on?

Always the Same Dream
Like the blues in the denim Wash after wash We draw on new layers even when our being is stripped apart. And it takes more than a deep swallow of nothing and more and it takes more than a hard fist that grips at nothing and more We just want to be desired but shades of grey we all become

Fades
Moments like these are the ones I wish I didn't miss. They are the ones where my days are so dull, blank, black, that I begin to think that death may be peaceful. The moments when I can walk into a street without looking both ways and not care whether I make it to the other side. These moments strip me of all happiness, while a void that is so suffocating I'd rather inhale liquid nitrogen then continue the conversation I'm in, arrives. When I can't feel the damp ground, leaves crunch into my hair, or the twigs digging into my feet while I encase a corpse I didn't get to save. The moments when things are as black as I imagine death is... I miss them. Like an old friend, or a form fitting pair of jeans for me to walk around in while I begin to miss the moments I feel alive.

Moments
How could you say these lies When you know I anticipate these times with you. To watch you walk away Your warmth instantly leaving my hands. How could you say these lies Knowing that your not coming back. My hands with nothing left to grab. Watching you walk away. Those jeans The way you sway. My hands ache with nothing left to grab on to. The warmth hidden behind those jeans. How could you say these lies Knowing that I am waiting. Anticipating this time spent with you. The way my hands grip you. Each moment slipping through my fingers. Not knowing you didn't plan on coming back. Your sway imprinted on my hands. This walk a reminder of how I waited. Anticipating this time spent with you. How could you say these lies. My hands filled with brown skin. Squeezed tight Cuffed beneath the bottom of your jeans. Finally realizing you never planned on coming back. Your sway Those jeans. Your warmth forever leaving my hands. & here I am Still anticipating this time, Spent with you

Come Back
I might cry in front of you You were leaning on your car seat of your Standard blue jeep wrangler I could carve you of rock If I knew how to carve Your eyes are deep like black holes ******* in light and time I didn't want it to end You make me feel like I was on fire Burgundy on my face Ash on my forehead I had never met someone who has a sun for a soul It envelopes everything in its path Slowly taking over the much smaller star I call a soul It wasn't catastrophic Nor tragic The way it was so easy to be overwhelmed by your smile How I'd be cold when you were gone But on fire when you were near You should come with a warning Like cutting onion anything you do could move me to tears This is a warning I could cry in front of you A sun for a soul A diamond for a smile Beautiful

Warning.
this is my favorite pair of jeans. they fit my legs tight and then loose and the color keeps to itself. this is my favorite sweater. it keeps me warm and it’s the color of moss. i’ve been wearing the same shirt for three days, but i’ve showered between those days i’ve been seeing you for a week but you’ve talked to your girlfriend between those days. my neighbor threw my clothes on the floor cause he needed the dryer so now i have to wash them all over again and i don’t have $3, the machine ate two so i only have one left your copy of rear window is on my floor. your copy of monty python is on my floor. thick hair, thick hands, thick wool, i’m thinning but you’re only getting warmer i’m tired of men entering my life and taking all of my heat right before winter comes.

everytime it gets cold and dark i am surprised by how cold and dark it is even though i've lived here for 20 years and every year it gets cold and it gets dark
i’ve been told many times that my eyes are the color of the ocean. just like my mom’s eyes. the color of the sky after a rain storm, young flowers, a little lighter than the blue on a walmart bag, a worn jean jacket. i think i like ocean the best- i miss it the most.

blue eyes
My mom got me a pair of blue jeans I never used to wear Buttoning and zipping was a pain Then we got a dress code And jeans Only, I could wear But not blue Too casual And so they sat forgotten ... Until a few years later In a rush I grabbed something to wear and it was ... ... ... My blue jeans

Blue Jeans
it’s funny how passion that fills you up to overflow and floods through your system can fade so fast. like your favorite pair of jeans, made to last, but one day you look back and they aren’t the same. they don’t fit the same way, the color isn’t there. the brightness and perfect feeling is gone. and yeah they still fit, but it’s gone from a **** heady-feeling fit to a soft comfortable daily-existence fit. i don’t know if i’m talking about jeans anymore. passion fades, so do jeans. but that doesn’t mean your favorite pair of jeans isn’t still your favorite pair. it’s just a different kind of favorite, they’re your favorite because they’ve stuck through it all with you, because there’s memories with those jeans, because there’s nostalgia and pictures and good times and god suddenly that passion is flooding through you again, rich and full and sweeter now. so what if passion fades, you had it. it’s in there somewhere, and there’s nothing quite like those jeans to bring it back out of you.

“jeans”
But the drifting shadows of memories once made. Life's little whisps of time that beam from the glittering eyes of loved ones Gently mixing with the water colors of sentiment and desire Forever painting our slumbering wishes across the eternal pages of hopeful tomorrows

What's within a dream
The Unspoken Truth of Desire A woman’s hair is as important as her cup size. Jeans **** your beautiful legs and strangle your thighs. I like the fact your *** looks big in that. When you are full of lust, you find new eyes. (C)2013 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.

The unspoken truth of desire
I found myself Staring into an ancient rythym The mustang narrowed its eyes within my ribs and pounded on. Waves of machine thunder Broke against my mind, Washed away with my consciousness, And played there Like spent dandelions upon an autumn breeze. In that maelstrom of indigos and ether, lightening split the void And I just fell... My layers and lies, suddenly too thin to keep, Fell away exposing the wilds of my dreams. Refracting my every wonder unto the waters of time that spilled there in eternal complexity. And then?  she simply blinked.

A moth in a butterfly's net
when you are around I feel endless Like memory Cascading from The mouth Of love. The thought of you Is like the fire You sleep next to On the cold and lonely nights When the only thing between You and oblivion Are the very stars That invited you there In the first place. you are the echo Of everything. You  are the inescapable mirror That I have somehow NEVER been afraid to gaze in.

The echo of everything
My favorite color is blue. It was blue before I met you. And unsurprisingly, Even after you're gone. I like blue in general. I like faded blue jeans And the bright blue of a butterfly's wings. I like blue as lipstick. And even as a food. Blue is my favorite color No matter the shade. But my favorite shade of blue Isn't the deep blue of the ocean, Nor is it the pale blue of the sky. It isn't even the shade of your eyes, Which is somewhere in between. No my favorite shade of blue Would be that Of forget-me-nots.

Blue
Bleached, dyed, trimed, styled. Faded, ripped, blue, worn. Tanned, tattooed, bruised, cut. Blue, hazel, gray, brown. Painted, polished, chipped, bit. Kind, hothead, caring, ****

Common
He's a puzzled man. One that I can't understand. Frightened deep down. Fellow inmate I wish to be enlightened. Walking down the stairs faintly. I'm in the basement mainly. It's dark all around me. Some days he won't let me free. I want him to hear my screams.   Then maybe he wouldn't get in my jeans.
