He.
He takes me from Mozart to come as you are, and I am falling into his arms. He has listened to all my shit you know all your insecurities and I still feel like a decent human being. He just gave me space to be me and no face on. I am doing break turns and twirling when my mouth catches his smile and my heart beats like a drum.
He makes me remember good things about living and it is meant to be fun. I swear to God I just wanna take him to say thank you. You are Prozac vodka and wine dancing in serotonin. A wonderful man I am totally vibing with someone who is out of my ballpark,...

Loss
How can you lose yourself like your door key down the sofa or your car key found in the washing machine. Everything everywhere but not the place it should be. I mean for goodness' sake how can you get to that place.
I think it is tied to loss. The loss of anything socially economically and your health. It all combined and comes like a harvest but you cannot see the fruits of life when you feel left behind. The bad apple that was to bruised to be eaten but we forget the taste. It would still be the same but when you are on a losing streak you forget rationale and the pros and cons....

People on the Take .
I have been taken for a fool so
many times . That's is what happens
when you are too kind and caring.
Some would say a people pleaser.
Now though it has made me reflect
I want to not let my anger set in
because I will be the only person
who will suffer . I am not a victim
I was too much of a trusting human
a bit of a day dream believer
which made me a tool for giving
away to much . To people who quite
frankly didn’t give two fucks .
I was more of a hippy love peace
and all that shenanigans, it doesn’t
work ....

A Confidante
I did not know you not really.Yet somehow,
I told you my inner secrets of the haunting kind and embarrassing too. Makes my toes curl and a little sick on the inside at times. I am not even sure why I do not trust a single soul, but it lays in my history I think more like a battle with hope and honesty that sort of thing. I contemplate about our conversations of the texting sort technology is such a wonderful thing.
You do not even have to be there it is just buttons and letters and a ping. I think though it gives you a sense of confidence like it is make believe. And...

Whole
You make me want to give my
all as my clothes fall and I gently
and slowly take yours in exchange
to leave us naked . I feeling like a
teenager and desperately wanting
to hide but I can't help but look
at you shyly and think how long
I have waited to greet your soul
in-depth way up to my chest and
dissolve. You will never truly
understand what this means
to me in an eternity.
To want to abandon all my fears
and wanting a hit of dopamine but
equally I know after a rush I may
hit the dust. You got me...

And She is Rolling
She is rolling down a hill and it’s
got a steep decline. She feels
totally lost she can’t find her
toothbrush or a comb
amongst the life stuff.
You know the score surely
when everything is just
way too much ……………...
The dishes lay in the sink and
the carpet misses the hoover.
She feels infiltrated with complete
sadness and add in shame
and guilt and disgust. This isn’t
her and it makes her feel a failure.
And she is rolling.
She can't see the bottom from
the top she’s feels tits up. ...

Wings
My life hangs in your heart . It’s in your eyes blue lagoons that make me want to take off my clothes and take a dip because i am losing control . You have taken all my defences and found a way in and I don’t know how . I am teetering on the edge. Do I dive or do I turn around you see I am not sure . How do I know if you will catch me if I fall but I know the way you think along the lines of but what if you fly .That’s the difference between you and I . One flying in the sky and one trying to find her wings .

Ten Octaves Higher.
There are no simple words to describe you. You are more complex than a ten-thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle. I had long to know which pieces go where and climb up your stairs. End up in your bedroom and hold you in my arms maybe swaying to an imaginary song
• We hold hands as if in the stance of a waltz we are sliding and gliding but I want to feel you pressing against my body. I want a symphony that descends into a concerto.Two instruments in tune that the notes made transcends to total harmony.You kiss my neck I let my hands loosen and my clothes too as I gently undress you, I can't make...

I am flying.
I feel free as if I am on a bicycle in the highest gears more than the number of my birth years. It’s as though my cogs and chains in my brain decided to change lanes, one without fear. My hair is falling into my face especially into my eyes I can’t see a thing but that’s my saving grace in disguise.
I love the wind it doesn’t care, and for once I am actually smiling not for any specific reason going full pelt downhill.I was not being handed a diamond ring or given a tax-free cash sum that is higher than the cost of living.. l just took my foot off the breaks and for that...

If you could read her mind.
If you could read her mind, you would understand how it feels to be different. Wishing with everything she wasn’t unable to be brave and walk out of the shadows. She clings to the obscurity they bring it covers not only her bones but seeped into her soul. It’s her coat she wears even in the summer heat although it’s suffocating. It’s her only true friend the dark and it knows her inside and out. It tells her of all her failures and mistakes as if she needed reminding and it’s wise with the question what the one common denominator in all of them, she whispers in reply it’s me and she gave up...

DAWN BREAKING
Your presence gently beguiles me mysteriously and mesmerisingly. My senses are hyper vigilant, and I truly believe I have seen the original dawn breaking. It appeared just for me in its incredulous glory. Full of promise slowly creeping one ray at a time while I’m intoxicated while watching an artist at work brush strokes smearing into striking hues of ornate flaxen.
It awakens me beyond my exterior and makes my eyes dance a slow rumba rhythmically undressing my bleariness with sweeping eyelashes. I am bemused at the fact early mornings can make you forget about time and feeling...

Life Equations
If we realise that our feelings are only temporary. A knee jerk reaction to an unexpected twerk. It's not the final. act but just part of a scene. The bad ones are absolutely defining. It you can face it knowing this isn't how my whole life is it’s only a fraction of it, but it isn't your final production. You have just learnt a lesson take the rough with the smooth with almost a distracting fashion The bad will come it's invariably a fact of life but if you focus too much on that and forget all the great ones. Watch the bad one's manifest and become as natural as breathing
You...
You...
