Life’s Veracity A Jaunty Tune
A kiss in the dark; no theology could train the lips to speak the full scope of love — what faith teaches, touch unlearns. For a man in the weeds — _tangled_, unseen — is still something that grows, stretching toward light he may never reach. Still beauty never promised to be impressive. Ready to fall; not for love, but from the weight of being myself —this awkward custody of flesh and thought. It's truly a case argued by the mind, and tried by the heart. Walls of a lung breathing in and out, taking in their words, their dreams, their worth — as if loving meant learning to breathe through someone else’s lungs. But we may never know how far a love may go; it’s always a shot in the dark — blind in faith, eyes closed in trust, when lips meet and silence speaks for us. Only after they part does the night exhale the truth: was it worth the shot — or just the echo of our wanting?

What Faith Teaches, Touch Unlearns
You walk in like the air belongs to you. Like the room shifts just to make space for your vibe. Every eye catches yours Not because you’re loud, But because your presence whispers louder than the noise. Confidence drips off you like cologne, Thick, warm, lingering in the atmosphere. Every step is intentional. No stumble, no second guess Just that steady rhythm of someone who knows They don’t chase… they attract. Your smile? Dangerous. It’s that mix of charm and challenge, Like you’re saying, “Come closer… if you can handle what happens next.” And I do. Oh, I do. You glide through the crowd like a smooth bassline, Effortless, magnetic. Charisma riding your every gesture, Words rolling off your tongue like silk dipped in sin. No forced lines. No games. Just raw confidence with a side of heat. You stop,right in front of me. The world fades to background noise. It’s just breath. Eyes. Proximity. The space between us starts to vibrate, Like our bodies already recognize a language Our mouths haven’t spoken yet. You lean in, voice low, That deep, smooth tone That makes simple words sound like promises. “You’re exactly where you need to be.” Chills crawl down my spine. My pulse skips a beat, Then speeds up like it’s trying to keep up with yours. You don’t touch yet. You hover close enough for heat to transfer, Close enough for my breath to catch against yours. That kind of patience? That’s endurance. The slow build that turns sparks into flames. When you finally reach out Fingers trailing along my arm like a slow confession My skin responds before I do. Goosebumps rise like whispers, And suddenly, nothing else exists but this pull. Body to body. Chest to chest. Every inch a conversation without a single word. The chemistry? Undeniable. It’s that electric charge that hums beneath the skin, The kind that says this isn’t just touch this is takeover. You press closer, steady, deliberate. Pressure. Not just physical.Mental. Emotional. The kind that makes every breath heavier. The kind that dares me to keep up with your pace. I match your rhythm, Lean in, close the gap completely. Now it’s heat on heat, Breath mingling like secrets swapped in the dark. You don’t ask for permission to take up space You command it. You don’t hesitate to go after what you want You claim it like it’s already yours. The night stretches long, Sweat and breath tangled in a dance that doesn’t need music. Hands roam. Lips hover. Every movement is a verse, Every sigh a hook, Every beat… pressure. And in this moment, With every pulse syncing like a shared heartbeat, The world narrows down to you and me, Lost somewhere between hunger and control, Caught in that sweet place Where confidence meets chemistry, And charm meets fire. Pressure rising. Steady. Relentless. Just how I like it.

Soul 2 Soul Beyond the flesh, beyond the face, Lies something time cannot erase. A love that moves, unseen yet true, A rhythm only we both knew. No need for words, no need for sound, Our spirits speak where hearts are bound. A silent pull, a cosmic thread, A love that lives though words are left unsaid. Through lifetimes lost and dreams retold, We find our way like rivers bold. No distance wide, no time too vast, For soul to soul, we’re built to last. I feel you near when night is still, A warmth that lingers, strong and real. Not just a touch, not just a glance, But something deep—a sacred dance. You are the echo in my chest, The steady peace, the gentle rest. No fear, no doubt, no space, no time, Just soul to soul, your heart in mine. Not bound by skin, not caged by years, But tied in love that knows no fear. For even when the world turns cold, Our spirits burn like flames of gold. We meet again, we always do, In whispered winds, in morning dew. For love like this, forever flows, Soul to soul, our essence knows. It’s in the stars that light the sky, In every tear, in every sigh. It’s in the way our souls embrace, A love untouched by time or place. Even when the road is long, When all seems lost, when hope is gone, I close my eyes and feel you near, Your voice still soft, your presence clear. Through past and future, far and wide, We walk as one, yet side by side. For love like this will never fade, Soul to soul, we’re unafraid. And if the heavens call us home, Beyond the stars, beyond the known, I know we’ll find our way once more, Two souls that time cannot ignore. So take my hand, don’t be afraid, This love was built, it will not fade. For even when this life is through, My soul will keep on loving you.

Hourglass
Jay. He was a nineteen year old high school dropout. He was black. He wore his hair in dreads. He had a few nose rings. He wore gold chains and expensive clothes. He went partying every night. He got drunk on alcohol but his drug addiction was the biggest problem. He had a lot of friends. Because he was ‘cool’. He was the ‘man’. Gray. He was 18, finishing his final school year. He was white. He wore his hair very short. He had large round glasses, sitting lopsided on his nose. He wore a long sleeved shirt and trousers. He studied hard, and he got good marks. He played the cello in the school band. But he was gay. And so he didn’t have any friends. But he had his family who he loved dear and who loved him back. He was happy. The differences between the two are unbelievable. They are nothing alike; they are complete opposites. Yet, they are human. They walk the same streets, at different times. They both live on the same planet, if not the same world. They both have a right to live. They both have people who love them, despite all they are. It’s their differences that make Jay and Gray human. Both of them. Until Jay raised his gun and fired three times at Gray. That’s when Gray was lost to humanity. And Jay had lost his humanity. Coz Jay shot in the chest a boy named Gray Killed him without giving him any say, The boy who did no wrong, but was gay, With his life, he had to pay. His family cried in despair and dismay, For their loving son had been taken away, And now they all sat in silence, For Gray would never see another day. For souls who have had their lives ripped apart, and those who rip their lives apart, we pray.

Revenge itches, where love never reaches, It itches in the shared cups, in the shared beds in the shared bodies, But never, in the shared hearts, For these days, they are not shared All love is today, Is a folkdance in a folkworld, With folks one will never truly love, But pretend to be loving, Living How lively! The roads, the parks, the brothels, All flood with bodies, not souls For the vessels are empty, staring at each other's empty faces, Prizing empty words to one another, And mocking anybody different, How lively! And in such fragrance too, Some bear to protest, The lively call them dead, In which case, dying is more beautiful

Mind and Thoughts
At nine p.m. they roll up the crooked sidewalks like they're fabric bolts. And every neon light in the diner window flickers in commercial dim. When winter comes sometimes i drive past the closed ice cream stand and think about what i never did. At nine p.m. they shut off their overhead living room lights. Every dog is in for the night and only the cats are crossing the street. Small town cozy village happy people normal sleepers. so incredibly law-abiding stability's key Not like me. at nine p.m. they roll up the crooked sidewalks like they're Fabric bolts. but i've always felt the need to walk the streets around ten p.m. pretend they're Still concrete.

fabric sidewalks
She stands on the edge awake.. yet confused as to where she is The thoughts blossoming in her mind reek of hatred and fear she steps out onto the ledge and looks down at her freshly painted toenails why did I get these painted?.. she thinks.. they're just going to be imprinted in the pavement in a minute anyways
