We live inside the past
Where memories can not escape
Love's everlasting grasp
All these emotions I feel
Are a catalyst for my downfall
But to suffer is to deny them
And to be free, truly free
Is to see past the illusions that created them
We pretend
Wear masks of lies
In hopes that one day
Destiny will pass us by
That our lives are a lump of clay
And you are the artist
But no matter how you bend and mold it
The cracks and imperfections
Come to the surface.
To find true understanding
You must see
The clay...
Where memories can not escape
Love's everlasting grasp
All these emotions I feel
Are a catalyst for my downfall
But to suffer is to deny them
And to be free, truly free
Is to see past the illusions that created them
We pretend
Wear masks of lies
In hopes that one day
Destiny will pass us by
That our lives are a lump of clay
And you are the artist
But no matter how you bend and mold it
The cracks and imperfections
Come to the surface.

Mind games
Keep dancing around
Like thoughts going through my head
One minute, we're just friends with a past
The next, you're playing with my heart strings again.
Tell me is this a game of love?
Or just another mind game?
All I can say is stop!
Stop dancing 'round my head all day!
You wanna know how I feel?
The thoughts racing through my head?
Sugar baby here we go again
When I met you
I was spiraling out of control you see
But you made me want to be a better man
I lied
I cheated
And I've cried my eyes out
But that never...

Satori
The moon is full
as I stare upon the horizon
wisps of white smoke forming ghostly apparitions
rests over the calming river
The wind cries
shivers like electric fingertips slide down my spine
the autumn leaves spiraling to the heavens
in a blur of orange and red
The stars shine
snapshots of the past on
a long voyage through the vastness of space
to finally end on purblind eyes
but I can see the light through the darkness of night
Colors fade
in a static of white
and time loses its hold
on Gaia and the elements
...

Sugar Lips
I can watch you talk for hours
watch those lips move as
our conversations spiral to levels
of openness I’ve never dared
to reach before
I love to watch them move
as we discuss every topic
and wonder how we got
on the subject of shaving
when we started talking
about food or something else
completely unrelated
and we laugh about this
the corner of your lips
turn upward in smile
make me want to grab you
with my arms around your hips
I love to watch your tongue
press up against your teeth
to pronounce the words...

Madness, adrift in space
"Press the red button"
Said the voice inside his head.
The Commander's bloodshot eyes
flicked down from the screen to the console,
back to the screen again.
"No." he said aloud to no one.
The rest of the crew in cryo-sleep,
all except him.
"Press the red button"
Said the voice again.
He had played this game for weeks,
with almost no sleep,
and it was time for him to give in.
His hand hovered above the button.
Just a momentary hesitation
and then the voice again.
"Press the red button"...
Said the voice inside his head.
The Commander's bloodshot eyes
flicked down from the screen to the console,
back to the screen again.
"No." he said aloud to no one.

Yin yang
I've never met a person like you
Someone who makes my day brighter
Simply by being in the room
But I just can't understand why
I feel this way every day I see you
You're nothing like me
And I am not like you
Down to the finest detail
Even the way we chew
You're black, I'm white
I'm mean, you're nice
I'm old, you're new
I like Rock while you
Like music that makes you move
I love nature , which petrifies you
We have nothing in common
But somehow I always
Find myself thinking of you
Movies we both love...
Someone who makes my day brighter
Simply by being in the room
But I just can't understand why
I feel this way every day I see you
You're nothing like me
And I am not like you
Down to the finest detail
Even the way we chew
You're black, I'm white
I'm mean, you're nice

I love nature , which petrifies you

Taming the flame
Taming the flame
my hand slides
between your thighs
to help enter you
for the first time
a smile? No,
but a flash of emotion
a subtle twitch
of ecstasy, which
sends your eyes
rolling back.
rhythm slow to start
as i pull you closer
hot breath against
the nape of my neck
and a quiet moan
as the tempo increases
faster, faster
i feel your body writhe
beneath my weight
and just before the crucial moment
i grab your ass and lift you up
rolling over seamlessly
with you on top.
i am still in control...
my hand slides

Hopeless
I see your face
everytime i close my eyes
and can't help but wonder
what if this were only a dream?
when you smile
it lights up my life
a flame warming
my cold numb heart
i feel you healing me
everytime our eyes connect
and i've never felt so free
or this happy before
its natural for me to feel this way
and i wonder what i'd be like
if i were to lose you
by harsh words
or to the grave
i'd feel lost and lonely
searching for something
to help show me the way
in a daze, living day by day
with...

Two swans
Once there were two swans
who liked to stay on a certain pond
from spring to autumn each year
they swam side by side
and passerbys would sometimes
steal a lucky glance
of their necks intwined
never could they be apart
or stray too far from one another
they would not exist without the other
but sadly one day
the frost came early
and the pond froze over
within one night
one swan died from the cold
the other as always
stayed by its side
when the morning came
the farmer whos pond they stole
was roused...

The promise
The promise
Beautiful is the world
in its chaotic bliss
all you need to see it
is a lovers calming kiss
how do you define
a never ending dream?
when the life around you
is pulsing with light at its seams
memories of you
linger, reminders of lost time
a summer eve with a hint of jasmine
in the midnight breeze,
leaves a refreshing feeling
as your divine face forms before my eyes
like a dream, smooth curves forming
into the outline of beauty undefined
with luscious lips full of happiness ...

Words!
Words have no meaning
they're nothing but sounds
constanants and vowels formed
together to make a sentence
but no matter how much i write
i just cant seem to describe
completely how i feel
you hurt me
and i know you regret it
believe me when i say
if i could turn back time
i would too just like you
but somethings happen for a reason
no amount of words
can describe what i want to say
anger and love give way
so lets start here
theres nothing worse
than a broken promise
but words mean nothing
till...
