You 2, Dream 1
Teko Harvey Oct 2014
Had me at hello, Cliche', but a new experience for me,
Hearts were performing but I always covered my eyes at that show.
Your name, Seemingly, the flower I just wanted to sit, watch grow.
Could have had it all
I lost you in the fall.
No reference to a drop
At the Sight of Daisies
Even the Greatest of Gatsby's broke clocks.
Concerned myself with the perfection of detail,
I hope he does see all the beauty, even when you fail.
Does he cherish the small things?
The way you sip your tea,
The many ****** expressions when you speak.
King of the questions, that would never leave this mouth.
Queen of the Answer, all I needed was you, I had no doubt.
Brain vs Heart, I already knew better
Planned the perfect picnic, I know you can finish this line, Always so clever,
Tried to stay in control, Faltered, I'm human I now know.
Involuntary motion of feelings without direction, where do I now go.
Like a movie scene I had every perfect song for the moments that altered.
Subconscious I woke, smiled, it was your face imprinted on our daughter.
The end is far, but you are my friend, I am always close,
these are just my thoughts, starred in with a little hope that floats.
With a canyon of love in between
I made promises to you I cant ever mislead.
2, I will see you, 1, close your eyes, & watch me Dream.

My Love Affair
Teko Harvey Oct 2014
She is always there to listen,
with out a sound she calms my inner inhibition
she doesn't wear makeup or **** clothes
just speaks the truth, even when nobody else knows

We have laughed, we have cried,
she has never left my back or my side,
thinking back I've known her my whole life
but its like meeting her for the first time with every thought I recite

I paint pictures with my love
sometimes abstract, sometimes clear
I always wonder will we last forever
she says I will but I cant without you, my dear

my love affair,
to these words that help me share my thoughts

Parallax of the Night
Teko Harvey Oct 2014
I can't sleep,
its like the loneliness of the night is my only friend
We stay awake under the covers only to play pretend
I asked my dearest friend, why do we have to play for fake,
I'm up, I'm alive, I'm awake
As any good friend would do, gave me some wise advice,
"Close ya eyes my friend these dreams are your reality you cannot sacrifice"

I cannot wake,
Trapped in a place I can go anywhere in
Anybody I want to be, or know, my once friend, is now my only foe
As he turns towards me, the harsh face of reality stares at me unrelaxed
"Why are you here" he asked, "the fear of this place shall forever hold you back"

I woke up from reality & fell asleep in a dream
A mirror looking back might not always be, not yet, what it seems

— The End —
