when i gaze into your eyes
i get transported forward into a new dimension
where i'm just an observer of countless entities and stars

I count my stars that i've been blessed with
by such a vision.  
and every twinkle in your eye
could be another starburst creating new life
and epochs of infinite emotions.

so when i stare at you in awe
and i'm at a loss for words,
what you are staring back at
is a traveler looking at the cosmos
that is your beauty
I'm in love with
your Voice
And the soft tones you
Elegantly send off like a ship
Coming into a long awaited harbor

I'm in love with
our conversations
Like old friends listening to the stories
of life since we were put asunder

I'm in love with
your laugh
And the eventual smile
that often freezes time that follows

I'm in love with
your body
Pressed against mine
The tangling of limbs and skin
making love beyond limbs and skin

I'm in love with
our kissing
And the gentle excitement of C4 bursts
with every passing of those lips against mine

And when Connection feels
Like pieces of ourselves
Trying to join back
Together.

I'm grateful.  

I feel the electricity so easily.
I'm grateful.

That we finally found each other.
I'm grateful.

I'm in Love with you.
I realize the ketchup
Is not where it belongs
And while the tooth picks
You counted are pretty much Gone
Relax my friends
HP will carry on

I know you don't want to hear this but
I like some of the change.
I just want to make more
with you,
from you,
and gift you
things that i made.

I'm looking forward to the adventure
of the two of us making.

Let's put our words to
the life adventures that we will encounter
and turn all that beauty
into something that we can
read and remember and enjoy
and celebrate and pass on
so that someone else can read our
adventures through our poetry
and maybe they too
might want to explore the world of poetry.

All that
All that from when
I hold your hand

God, you're amazing
thank you
thank you so much
Let's inspire each other
to inspire others.
i just want to dance
in tie-dyed onesies
while drinking
whiskey
on a friday night.

i just want to laugh
and cry
and feel safe
wrapped
in your arms.

i just want to eat
all the pizza
and all the pastries
like tomorrow
doesn't matter.

i just want to run
through fields
of sunshine
and sunflowers
with you.

Love, camaraderie and poetry
You always did love it here.

HOW DO YOU save a poem as a DRAFT on here anymore? Help! I've been gone for a year and the save as draft button is gone?

Acacia tree sunsets over Lake Turkana
Yes, you always did love it here
Drawing Crocodiles on my wheel

The mouse in your hoodie
The hurt
the homeless
and all those people
you always did love it here.
1 year, 7 months, 7 days later and courage to get on Hello Poetry again, and tears and tears.
To be is breath
is depth wind cilia dance

The wet concrete street that shows
where the storm once danced last

Technicolor oil slick streak
breaks black asphalt monotony

Like the swirl of the milk and sugar
in the otherwise black coffee

* **

I'm reminded that rest, the real kind
is both solitary and shared

And when you can't sleep, we can't sleep
a shared insomnia from a shared dream

memories of cobalt ennui
plague the spaces between twenty fingers
twenty toes

with gold dipped intentions and egg-shelled breath
the plague of fallen petals of effervescent rose
"I'm reminded: the rebels find each other
the tribe collects around the fire
shares cowboy coffee and stories"
-Teej
Our playlist is
the best love songs
that helped voice words
we needed spoken.
Your voice is beautiful
i hope the words resounded
when they were spoken from
the creation's origin.  

a loud murmur of my heart snap-snapping
to the poetry slam we share between us.
