POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I don't consider myself a poet. It's just random thoughts.
Acceptance
I feel selfish Needy Clingy
Wishing to be closer
Straining at the seams for it
Even as the chasm widens
Batter my wings against the unseen barrier
I've found love for the first time
Is it real? Is it even Love??
Foreign emotion Yet
It feels the way I imagined love would
Like
Sunshine and ocean breezes
My heart laments the loss
Do you hear it?
Could you, even when the words refuse to come?
Just within my grasp
So close I could taste it
Starshine and moonbeams
I fear it may be slipping away before it...

Red Rose
You were there
Fingers caressing the petals of that red rose with such reverence
I watched as you ran those petals softly against your lips
Buried your nose in its center and inhaled
I couldn’t help but imagine you caressing me that way
And had to stifle a moan of frustrated need
Just then you glanced up with a look in your eye
Letting me know that what you were doing was
Just for me
You got up and went into the next room knowing I would follow
And so I did…I started to follow feeling like the hunter
When in reality I was the hunted

Cravings
I have a craving within
Hooked its talons so deep the need makes me weak at the knees
Been so long that your voice alone might send me over the edge…well
No not quite
I miss the feel of fevered skin as it slides against my own
Heated kisses and grasping hands
Lungs straining for breath that won’t come
Fill me to my soul with your passion
Show me how much you want me with your body
Push me so close that I shake with my almost release
Then take me down just to build me up once more
Make me work for the release that I so badly...
Hooked its talons so deep the need makes me weak at the knees
Been so long that your voice alone might send me over the edge…well
No not quite
I miss the feel of fevered skin as it slides against my own
Heated kisses and grasping hands
Lungs straining for breath that won’t come
Fill me to my soul with your passion
Show me how much you want me with your body
Push me so close that I shake with my almost release
Then take me down just to build me up once more
Make me work for the release that I so badly...

Words
The words you speak
Are like the breath I need to proceed
Inspire me to speak my mind
Lay it on the line
Float me away down the river of
Love and Life
With undercurrents of pain and strife
I live so fully in the embrace of your words
They flow through my mind
Immerse me in dreams of
The images you create
Out of words
So deeply in life
Bursting with scent and sound and taste
I feel it all
Happiness, hope, sex, love and hate
Make me feel true pain through raw emotion
Or ecstasy sweet as a chocolate ocean...

My Dream Man
Opened my eyes and had a dream
Saw you standing in front of me
Reached out to hold you close
Hand misted through…are you a ghost?
Could have sworn you are real
Your embrace had a solid feel
But each time we meet you wear a new face
And we’re in a new house in a beautiful place
If I sing our song when I dream
Will you come to me outside of dreams?
Think about you all the time
Determined to hear that you are mine
Opened my eyes and thought I had a dream
There you were in front of me
Reached out and held me...

Shadows
Lost amongst shadows
Again
No light shines here
Happiness Peace and Love fade here
And the mist engulfs all
Again
No Way Out
Never A Way Out
Without help
Lost…
Amongst…
Shadows…
Again.
Again
No light shines here
Happiness Peace and Love fade here
And the mist engulfs all
Again
No Way Out
Never A Way Out
Without help
Lost…
Amongst…
Shadows…

Live
Live don’t just survive…
How many times have I heard this spoken?
Live…
What is that? To live?
I survive… no, not even that
I Exist
Barely
A dreamer since birth but at least I recognize that
A thousand deaths I’ve died
Never Once Having Lived
Never once knew love or so it seems
The world is not at my feet It lives somewhere unobtainable
Barely
I Exist
Live…
To live? What is that?
How many times have I heard this spoken?
Live. Don’t. Just. Survive…

Three Friends, Three Sisters
Three friends with nothing in common, three sisters who are nothing alike
They live together but don't ever fight
Talking and laughing are what they do best aside of all the rest
The good, the spontaneous, and the cruiser one too what are we gonna do?
Poerava, Maela and Ka'ula
Three sisters with no relations, Three friends with no ties
And because of this their friendship never dies
A dancer, a joker and a floer so true, What can anyone do?
Through puberty, boys and problems of the worst
Together they stuck...

Eternal Time
I sit here and I wonder, how did I ever let it get this far
Contemplating over past events, things just seem so meaningless
What will happen in the future that past and present haven't already seen
Through life and death, time and time again things seem to repeat themselves
How long more till life goes on, what should I do to continue
Thinking about how I just can't live without you
Old mistakes and problems have long been forgiven and yet we still wander on
What to do in these perilous times without knowing which way to turn

Sister
My confidant
Keeper of secrets
True friend
Sister from another miss and mister
First cousin
My Jenna-Rose
You who knows me better than both my parents put together
You who are so much younger than myself
Yet still
So easy to divulge all to
What darkness and light do you keep hidden in the recesses of your
Beautiful mind
What stories and memories of mine do you have of which
I have long since
Forgotten
Thousands of miles apart
And still
You are one of the
First
And one of the ...

Love Flow (Created for the Love... Competition)
I want to hear you say my name
Say it softly Shout it from rooftops
Whisper to the wind that you are mine and you love me
Breath to me sweet somethings
Though we both know that I am already yours
Tell the moon the story of how we met
And let the stars be witness to our love
Sunshine and Spring Rains will be our caresses
So long as the ocean sees us parted
I will have faith in you because you are my first, and I will earn your faith because I am determined to be your last
This love started flash flood fast
But it will survive...
Say it softly Shout it from rooftops
Whisper to the wind that you are mine and you love me
Breath to me sweet somethings

And let the stars be witness to our love
Sunshine and Spring Rains will be our caresses

I will have faith in you because you are my first, and I will earn your faith because I am determined to be your last
This love started flash flood fast

An Outlook on Life
I stand alone
When life gets tough I stand strong
Everyday is a new challenge
With the rising of the sun comes a new battle
Needing to be faced within
As well as without
Life is the field on which each war is waged
Time is the key to success and each failure leads to
New knowledge
Every issue is the opposing side
Fighting back for a say in
The life that I live
Determination is what drives me forward
Some days I'll win and some days I'll lose
It's not easy but it's life
And life goes on
When life gets tough I stand strong
Everyday is a new challenge
With the rising of the sun comes a new battle
Needing to be faced within
As well as without
Life is the field on which each war is waged
Time is the key to success and each failure leads to
New knowledge
Every issue is the opposing side
Fighting back for a say in
The life that I live
Determination is what drives me forward
Some days I'll win and some days I'll lose
It's not easy but it's life
And life goes on
