MayRayn (May Rayn)
Your first poem.
Until
When your hand slips from mine,
You on one side, I on the other
I'll still feel the warmth of your touch
When life goes on regardless
In the smallest and quietest of moments
You'll be heard and felt
In my very heartbeat,
In the pulses of my life,
For you are a part of me always.
Although your hand slips from mine
You will never leave
For I'll still hold on tight
When your arms no more
can reach out,
Your love will encircle me
For that has always wrapped
Not just around my body
But around my heart and soul
Warming me to my very core.
As you always used to say when I was small
and so sad to say goodbye
The goodbyes between us are
never really a goodbye at all,
but merely an until...
When your hand slips from mine,
You on one side, I on the other
I'll still feel the warmth of your touch
When life goes on regardless
In the smallest and quietest of moments
You'll be heard and felt
In my very heartbeat,
In the pulses of my life,
For you are a part of me always.
Although your hand slips from mine
You will never leave
For I'll still hold on tight
When your arms no more
can reach out,
Your love will encircle me
For that has always wrapped
Not just around my body
But around my heart and soul
Warming me to my very core.
As you always used to say when I was small
and so sad to say goodbye
The goodbyes between us are
never really a goodbye at all,
but merely an until...
Bleeding Hearts
Smiles
That never quite reached the eyes.
Your face adorned with empty looks.
You thought no one noticed
The mask your wearing till now?
Sweet words
Muttered under false pretense.
Saying Good Morning,
When the sun is falling.
You thought no one heared
The screams your voice is hiding?
Pain
Underneath your smooth skin.
Dressed to the nines,
When you felt like mourning.
You thought no one felt
The hurt you've been enduring?
Bitterness
Grazing the pallets.
Drinking wine, eating dessert
When all are stale and poison to the taste.
You thought no one had seen
You puking every after meal?
Hemorrhage
Draining your life away.
Going about daily routine,
Like everything's o'k.
You thought you're the only one
Trapped in this shithole called life?
Be still
Your bleeding heart
Look out and see
Those around you
Those you left behind
Those you ignored
Those you have taken for granted
While trapped inside your own private hell
Be happy
For everything you've got
For all that you would still have
For all that would come to pass.
For life goes on as it should
And would continue to unfold
No matter what,
The world is still beautiful.

Night Thief
Oh, you night thief
Bring me back my sanity
Oh, give me morning relief
Sync me with reality
Take my heavy breath
From my tired lungs
In my throat's a threat
That I've become unstrung
So please, night thief
If you're gonna steal my light
Leave me a little to last the night
So when it's over and daylight comes
To sleep, myself, I can still quietly hum
Oh, you night thief
Bring me back my sanity
Oh, give me morning relief
Sync me with reality
Take my heavy breath
From my tired lungs
In my throat's a threat
That I've become unstrung
So please, night thief
If you're gonna steal my light
Leave me a little to last the night
So when it's over and daylight comes
To sleep, myself, I can still quietly hum

DIME
I lust
Boys
Guys
Men
Now the question is:
Where do I begin to sin?
Sure, boys kiss me
Sure, guys sex me
Sure, men fuck me
Boys in the backseat
Guys on the sofas
Men on the beds
Boys touching
Guys probing
Men raping
Yea, I’ve had it all before
But just as the
last of my breath. . .
escapes me
to hell
I still think of. . .
Coming on their hands
Coming in their mouths
Coming on their cocks
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
I’m a perverted clock
With no perception of time
I’m doing time for a crime
that once cost me a Dime

komorebi
a ceasing forenoon, a shaded recline,
a crystalline stare into a lush canopy
and its numerous branching understories
such a subtle embrace with the earth,
such immense space between you and the speckled barrier
through which the sky beyond permeates
every breath of breeze washes over you,
grazing your skin, kissing your lips,
running its whispy fingers through your hair
you notice your mind arrive in your head,
back from a realm high above
populous with green, yellow, and tinges of blue
a moment of conscious affection,
interrupted only by another spiriting draft,
and once again you drift...
I think of you
Watching the sun set, thinking of you
Wondering where you are what it is that you do
I am remembering the pain in your eyes
Knowing that it was from all my unspoken good byes
All the things I tried and wanted to say
It was just best to turn and walk away....
Ill always wonder and think of you
Where you are and what you do

Glass Houses
If I were to gather all the flowers
you've sent me in messages,
my hothouse would be more
exotic than any wintergarden
the heady scent suspended in
moisture trapped between glass walls
amid strains of harpsichords.
I don't quite know - am I
the lady lost in thought
book open
neglected in my lap
finger marking the page
or the one, nose pressed
against the glass, looking
at a world I can only conjure
but never truly take part in?

River of Life
Like the ocean she is dark
keeping her depths a secret
too painful for eyes to see
Like the sea she is seducing
dancing between ebb and flow
tempting with all her waves
Like water she is delicate
kissing with lips of devotion
her flavor soft and sweet
Like waterfalls she is strong
cascading into valleys of gold
where rainbows fill her soul
Like cleansing rain she cries
washing away her memories
of a dashed and broken life
Like fiery rivers she bleeds
carrying the burden of being
through fields of eternity
Like tiny rivers she meanders
surrendering to the flow of life
her destination still unknown
Like the ocean she is dark

Like tiny rivers she meanders
surrendering to the flow of life

Anger Poems » mum to friendly
mum to friendly
What's that rolling of your tongue
It appears to be your view
But mom you only comment on things that suit you
Mom and dad I know it's sad but still I gotta say
Your the two best friends I never had and this is how it will stay
Oh my brothers come the day blood ties and your lies are taken away
But for now it seems to be
A black sheep I shall stay
I'll roam this life on the edge of a knife
Doing things my way

Soft Touch
The night is here lets stand on the balcony
Staring at the stars, join me at the rail look out at the sky together…..
My hand finds yours, our fingers touch and hold each other…
I lean back against you, rest my head against your chest
Can you feel my heart beating?
You whisper something I turn to question but our eyes lock together...
I forgot what I wanted to ask you… Your eyes… your eyes stared deep into my own and I could see a desire within them...
I pushed my head up to meet your lips with mine and a rush of blood went through me...
I could feel the heat of your breathing the softness of your lips and the smell of your skin so close to me…
It feels so real…. Can you feel it?
You open your mouth a little kept brushing your lips against mine, teasing me…
With each touch my heart beats faster, I crush my lips more firmly with yours as I gasp for a breath of air, I need it
Your arms snake around my neck… I could feel your fingers sliding thru my hair... you lean me back against the rail
Our lips never ceasing the soft and passionate way of kissing
My leg came up hooked around the back of your own as I struggle to pull us together
My hands are on your back as I feel with soft touch upon your skin, It feels as the night is getting hotter…

Love Poems » I Watch
I Watch
I walk into the room and I see faces everywhere
All different lives, hopes, and dreams
Love, trust, and hate
I see all these faces and only see the one
The one I watched walk away the one I loved and watched walk away with someone else
I look at all the people and only see her face walking away again while I sat and watched
I watch still
She is with another guy, different face, same result
I watch
I watch as she leaves to go nowhere
To leave me and be so close to me all at once
Because I watch
I watch my love, love someone else
I watch and die a little more
I can't move so I just watch and watch
I watch and slowly disappear
I watch and I watch
I love yet I watch
Shes gone again and yet I'm still stuck
Watching her leave again
The faces speak to me, but I only hear her voice
Telling me about her latest boyfriend
I watch my love walk away someone else again
I watch
I watch her make another mistake
I can't move so I just watch
And I watch
I'm gone now, too, but still I watch
Forever I watch
