"movments" poems
A leaf caught upon a breeze
Spinning in one place,
As if the earth was
Repelling,
Shunning,
Dancing
Upon gravities whims
I watch hypnotised by this
Dancing leaf,
I asked if in need of help
But its words were but silence
Spinning,
Caressed,
Flowing
With the delicate movments
Granted by the breeze,
I stepped closer to see this natures dance
And upon silken thread did it hold tight,
"Never falling to earth"
Hanging,
Suspended,
Graceful
Movements, its time may come to fall
But for now it dances upon silken thread
Dancing within the breathe of the gentle breeze.

I walked in and took my place at the bar waiting a bit impatiently for the bartender. After a few minutes she came I order a pbr and a shot of whiskey. my shot stings going down but I take a large sip of my beer and it sooths. I talk to some people for a bit but I can't help but look for you. I glance at the barstool I know you rest and i see you. From the looks of it this may be your 5th nightcap of the evening. And I'm promised it won't be your last. We meet eyes. You gaze at me the same way I, for you. I walk over and give you an I - miss - you hug. He's familiar will thoes. We jabber on about nonsense and and laugh at the strange curly-haried man dancing in the corner. God I love his laugh. I order a few more pbrs and a couple more shots.. my whiskey curauge has me blurting out if he would like to stay with me after all has closed. He says he's usual answer. And for just a split second I wonder if my options were much better asked after he has had a couple of caps or if he would say yes regardless?.. some days I'm unaware. We leave and it's as if nothing has changed between us. The two of us walk to his place stopping for beer no less. Tipsy as we are were acting very silly skipping around, making strange noises at one another. We just go back to the two free spirited people simply infatuated with one another. And I'm flying in bliss. I sit on the bed and look at him. Memorizing his movments. He moves so beautifly so gracefully. He hands me an IPA, the way he's eyes meet mine is breathtakingly lovely. And in that moment, I could look at this handsome, complicated, loving, courageous man forever.

I'm living life
I'm doing fine
I'm in control
Something happens
something I do perhaps
a decision, a mood, an impulse
maybe someone
I stutter, stumble
fall right out of it
head first to the concrete
Everything is wrong
the movments of my body
the placement of my feet
what is reality?
Top down view
front row
what a **** show
Everything is to much
peoples chatter humming, building up
sun light blinding to my eyes
stop looking at me
Here we go again
take it from the top
more like bottom, crawling up
Does it get better or worse
easier or harder
strong or weak
whith each run?
What's the grand prize?
Everything feels wrong again

I sigh, you enter, do these repeated movments cause reason for paymemt of a cursed pleasure?
Again the brain tells the body. Sicken your likeness. See the shapes in front of you as treasures you could validate.
Bend your true nature, fold your conscious to feed your human form.

You stir through the room,
as if breathing was subconscious.
Your breath never wavers.
I'm acquainted with my breathing,
It's almost never instinctive.
It flickers.
Realistically,
we breathe the same air,
But yours is nimble.
And mine is undexterous.
My air is stagnant,
Breaths are fatiguing.
Lackluster.
You seem to rest on water,
Your movments are graceful.
Ethereal.
I struggle to breathe,
but our realities are different.
You'd never notice,
That I'm drowning.

her smile makes you want to know her more
her eyes draw you in to her world
her gentile touch soothe your aching heart
and her voice forever eched in your mind
the aura that surronds her, draws you in
a soft glow, yet a feeling of love everlasting
her movments are smooth and true
like the perfect poem
laying next to me, i hear the rhythm of her breath
timely in beat, soothing to the soul
her eyes draw you into her world
her smile makes you want to know her more
