Time spent on the faceless. Smooth skin turned abrasive
By the scaled scars, my broken heart has created.
Serrated blades of blame pierce our veins and,
Trickle down pain through broken water mains.

A gluttons dinner bell hangs above the poor’s poisoned well.
Dead men don’t feast. Lead a horse to water and,
Wait for it to drink. Watch the self-defeat. Hand-made desolation by men with no faces.
Puppet string desperation keeps us in our places.
Who is in control.

What is it that makes me miss
The lighter fluid on your lips. Toothaches from a temptress,
And her candy kiss. Arm’s elastics wrap me up. So foreign,
Is this human touch. Like a siren she swims and sings,
To lure me close enough to clutch. An ephemeral embrace,
That chews me out and spits me up.
Love eats hearts for lunch.
Love is a luxury I can seldom afford.

When breath becomes prayer
God becomes breath.

My simple ordinary life became a beautiful fairy tale after I met you.

You must always exist in the universe as matter, energy, or a figment of your imagination.

My joy is complete when I’m with you
And to feel your hands warmly on my face
Is so beautiful and true it's so sweet and
To hold you close in a loving embrace
And I could spend an eternity in your arms
Falling in love with you in this beautiful place and
To savor love everlasting in my heart and
Encountering you was so beautiful
And true I'll always remember the day I met you.
With
simplicity and humbleness
real beauty comes through.
It shines.
