Open dating, no not for me
Why did I react the way I did
You make me feel a way I never have before
It's like everything came to a skid
Even jealousy makes me want to roar
When all I want to do is lay on your chest
The rhythmic rise and fall, like calm tides
That's where I feel blesses
That's where all stress abides
I want love to exist
But all I've ever know
is what it should not consist
Like a sinking Stone
I don't know what to do
Because everyone I have ever asked for
It looks and sounds alot like you
And yet you are so much more

venus retrograde
i noticed you staring
like—you know—like you could love me
make me the prettiest in the lunar surface
right in the shade of venus retrograde.

The Final Act
Before a storm
There is calm
I was warm
In your arms
You unwrapped
Said goodbye
The final act...
You & I
There is calm
I was warm
In your arms
You unwrapped
Said goodbye
The final act...
You & I

Passing Me By
Love skips pass my doorstep
As I wait patiently for it to ring my bell
Immune to all the nights my heart wept
25 years without a single love story to tell
Love keeps passing me by
I wish to experience love’s presence
Imagination could never compare to the heated touch of a lover
Or the passion filled gaze from fluorescent eyes
25 years without being the object of someone’s desire
Love keeps passing me by
Love must not love me
I’ve waited and contemplated if it will ever knock on my door
Each day brings a new shade of...
As I wait patiently for it to ring my bell
Immune to all the nights my heart wept
25 years without a single love story to tell
Love keeps passing me by

Imagination could never compare to the heated touch of a lover
Or the passion filled gaze from fluorescent eyes
25 years without being the object of someone’s desire
Love keeps passing me by

Pearls at Your Feet
I watch pink-blue horizons
as visions of your face
fade in the red sinking sun
your fingerprints linger in the haze.
Reflections of white satin seas
open and shut walls
the Elysium of endless dreams
where shadow and light fall.
Nameless on these pages
weaving sweet tapestry
in sonnets, poetic sequences
as every word comes rapidly.
Secrets of your heart
touched by subtle motions
rising with a rising star
at the start of profusion notions.
Gems of topaz
on your caramel hands
sun...

Yearn for You
Longing
It’s seeing the sunrise remembering
your eyes.
It taste like regret, a lime flavor.
It sounds more louder than a library.
It feels like you’re still holding on even after
I left you.
Longing is thinking about how much I miss you.
It’s seeing the sunrise remembering

It sounds more louder than a library.

I left you.

The Rose
I bought you a rose,
you wanted it so,
But then you arose,
And left me alone,
I've just arrived home,
A long time ago,
A warm empty hole,
The lust that you stole,
But if you do go,
Be ready and know,
A red bathtub holds,
The rose that you chose
you wanted it so,
But then you arose,
And left me alone,
I've just arrived home,
A long time ago,
A warm empty hole,
The lust that you stole,
But if you do go,
Be ready and know,
A red bathtub holds,
The rose that you chose

Easy
Like riding a bike
Like slipping on a pair of flip flops
Like making a cheese sandwich
Like wrapping up in a warm blanket
Like laying on a comfy bed
Like taking a drink of water
Like putting on a glove
It would be so easy
All the parts are already there
The firm foundation has already been laid
There is always work to do
But it would be so easy
Like slipping on a pair of flip flops
Like making a cheese sandwich
Like wrapping up in a warm blanket
Like laying on a comfy bed
Like taking a drink of water
Like putting on a glove
It would be so easy
All the parts are already there
The firm foundation has already been laid
There is always work to do
But it would be so easy

Casual interest
Behind me …
There’s a river
Taking my memories downstream
Washing every colour away
Bleaching every blemish
Obliterating each scar
Rendering memory obsolete
Low mood leaves me……. feeling like I’ve betrayed you
You deserve far better
Than my casual interest
More connection
Than I could ever commit to
Tiredness overcomes
I want to let go
Even though there’s no where to go
Let these chemicals churn
In an effort to turn
Sadness into a smile
So I could artificially stay a while
...

Maybe
Maybe
You tell me that you love me, maybe the best way you know how. You treat me like I am regular, we both know I am rare.
The position you want isn’t vacant. Is it a position you can fill? Maybe that position really requires you to heal.
Maybe we are just passing time, educating each other about love and life. You think that you want me? Maybe its lust that fuels your desires.
Maybe if you’d ask, I’d say I want it to be you. Maybe I’d have the courage to tell you, I’m scared of being alone too.
Maybe it’d be perfect or maybe a dumpster fire. Spend 24 hours...

Whispers of Destiny
My dearest love,
Though I haven’t seen your face
Or heard your voice, Smelled your scent
I feel your soul in the breeze
You are a dream I have yet to touch,
A beautiful poetry I have yet to write.
I ache for you in ways you never knew
The days feel like empty echoes without you
I often wonder where you are right now.
Are you out there staring at the same moon, Searching for a love that feels like home?
And I will wait more burning, longing,
Believing that somewhere, somehow,
Fate is guiding us to each other.
Though I haven’t seen your face
Or heard your voice, Smelled your scent
I feel your soul in the breeze
You are a dream I have yet to touch,
A beautiful poetry I have yet to write.

The days feel like empty echoes without you

Are you out there staring at the same moon, Searching for a love that feels like home?
And I will wait more burning, longing,
Believing that somewhere, somehow,
Fate is guiding us to each other.

Dandelion
That afternoon
you locked the door
giggling nervously
for a man of your age
I remember thinking
how innocent it was
to hear joy leave you
unmarred by day jobs
and the black hum of bills
shaking their totals
we couldn’t remember
what was to be said
to each other
choosing instead
to stack frantic piles
of love upon lips
there’s something beautiful
about that kind of urgency
bursting through a quiet room
and the truth is
I still picture it
I think of you ...
