Sunset Mar 2016
I am the winter snow storm you have never dreamed of.
The kind that is so cold it becomes painful but
you know that the pain will go away and the cold
will become warmth so you kiss my chapped lips
and runny nose anyway.
You are the summer vacation I need when I am
stressing over bills I do not have the money
to pay for. You are so hot; I get steamy
in the way that I like. So I pull you in and
kiss your smooth lips and perfect nose
every day.
But my allergies spike in the summer. And you always catch a cold in the winter. Allergies are not as prominent as the symptoms of the common cold. And shoveling snow in -20 degrees Celsius is worse than mowing the lawn in 35.
So I do not blame you for finding your own summer vacation that helps you gain perspective and enhance your creativity, rather than being trapped with me, your very own blizzard of 1993.

Paul Andrews
Broken recognizes broken.
Two broken souls will find each other,
and hang on for life.
If broken recognizes broken
and I am alone,
am I really broken
or,
have I just not found
someone as broken as me yet?
Sunset Mar 2016
Your voice steals my thoughts
every time I look at my bed
Your moans of
impurity
and
broken promises
ignite forbidden flames
within me
Every touch, every kiss, every laugh
I know come with a price
But it’s the dangers that entice me
Take my heart
and crush it
Laugh when you’re finished
I cannot fool anyone
It is easy for me to lust over you
Every deny, every blame, every mistreatment
brings me to the edge
You look at me with bedroom eyes
but your words are filled with dishonesty
Negotiation and fairness are not a part of your vocabulary
But I do not need your fidelity and accountability
as much as I need your
disrespect.
