Do I **** you with words unspoken

Does my fear leave you broken

Does my hiding cause you pain

is our fighting all in vain

As we strain to see the truth

Through this darkened mirror

Do we build regrets, resentments

Or are they our testaments

You say Go,

I say no,

For fear of being cold

for without your arms around me

the world soon surrounds me

it closes in

with all its darkness

the unknown that is my terror

For I am a sparer

I spare your pain as well as others

in doing so I hurt you both

I love one master and the other, hate

I must choose which to satiate

My own fears and curiosity

or our love eternally....

Sunshine with a memory
For you, a silent opportunity
In a stranger's smile, the thief of worry
Has a callous sake, a gift to those that seek nativity

A role of simplicity, if not seemly kind
The searching and adoring reach
Of sincerity in churched thought, is a wieldy mind
Of patience for mercy to step forward, and claim each?

Behave yourself, a promise to keep
Has the voice of uncertainty
When if, is to be a heart in the leap
Of such, to verify vanity is much more than a key

Have, and hello...
So fine, adjusted to curious mores
Nary come a well-wishing same, in spare owe
There is always the option, of determining lives worth

Falling asleep, in the sun
A wind of sparer tows, to remember a fate beyond...
Sulking in the needs of another, welfare of whole, come
Has a burden let, been the sake we knew, of a graceful some?
Yet in line and shine, the truer sake sublime
