I meet him a few nights a week
My friend and I
we chase him
There is a me that I don't know
Till I meet this man
Like a genie in a bottle
what a luxury to know him
dark and handsome..
A side of me is exposed
more open and witty
and revealing than I could ever want
But it's Me
Bubbly and Awkward
Giggly and Forward
For sure and full of Heart
My girl and I
We chase Jack with Jack
He warms us
and fills us
with a certainty
with a clarity
He is just in a bottle
But when he is released
We are released.

Big bada Boom

Naked bodies are meant for each other
To hold and to touch and to bother
I've spent some time not caring
but my anticipation is blaring

I left a good soul in good torment
He had video games on his mind
It was easy to see, we let love ferment
I was no one but a ***** bind
I said, enough.

Twenty five years
I've grown
I've slipped
I've been torn apart

Three years
I've wasted
Uninspired
Aching for
Inspiration

He came to me from the mines
His hard, rough hands
used to be so soft, when he was a boy
Boy has he grown
He holds me with a grip
As if I've slipped before

He came to me in the night,
unable to sleep
I heard his plight
My heart was buried deep
But I let him touch me
and look at me
and want me

These are not empowering feelings
A woman was meant for a man
A man, with primeval notions
A woman, with cultured devotions
We succumb to our basic human desires
It either feeds us
Or destroys us

Everyone wants to be the object
of the other's deviant subject
We look for distractions
something for attraction
Life is not a reality
It is a fiction
With every step
a new direction

I am free now
to love
to play
to dance

It gives me immense pleasure
to go back to previous measure
I don't care if I'm alone
I can choose to be used

I asked if he missed this
"Yes."

The thrill when I kiss you
equals the Rush when you touch
Those wandering hands
have returned from lost lands
I wish I could give you what you want

In the arms of my lover,
thoughts of you, I discover,
Excites and Saddens me
I am now that caged bird
my former passions flaring

I am burning alive

If there was a place, I'd go
If it was a heart, I'd take it
I dream too much for wishing
A ceaseless wandering
And where should I stop
There is a rift, it is a cliff
I want to jump, I will
While I fall, I float
Landing blissfully in my dreams
Swept away

One day, perhaps today, this won't be important-
that important to you - my words are only tools
I saw what it's like to be cold and desolate
I know how it feels to be alone and desperate
I can see the stars beyond my walls like glitter
in the skies - my eyes close for sleep to these.
I know you're close by, I just can't see you
You've disappeared before and I'd expect you'd
return again to run aground to be a hound..
I have the same story for every star
Like a beat in my heart, they number
I like you so much, let's make constellations..
My name means nothing and I am no one
to whom does this matter
**** a feeling, it never lasts
