Poet Introduction
I write about being "IN LOVE"
The Wonderful YOU
Let us not celebrate this day as a tally of years gone by,
But as the day your being was brought forth onto this world,
For if your mortal coil had not come to be,
Deprived we would, of what we call you.
The possibilities upon your birth where endless,
So vast and plentiful, unbeknownst to you they were,
With your heart and soul as your guides,
Your desires were the reality of your youth.
Time passed and you emerged,
As the sum of all your desires,
There is no correct or wrong you, that, there is no doubt,
You are...

Exposed
She was a princess,
Though I did not know it at the time,
Dismissed her I did,
For I knew not beauty.
As the years passed,
Her rightful place she now commands.
Royalty was her destiny,
A queen she became and will forever be.
A perfect life royalty demands,
But life is never as it seems,
As fate had yet to play its song...
It was not one defining moment,
For we had newly crossed paths.
Again, dismissed her I did,
For I knew not who I was.
Fate being what it is...
A ribbon intertwining the fabric...

Dismissed her I did,
For I knew not beauty.

The Meeting
I swear my heart skipped a beat,
Lost I was in your presence,
I knew not what to do,
Only that it should be with you.
Why was I nervous?
It was but coincidence that we meet,
Proper ceremony was adhered to,
As pleasantries and introductions reined.
After all, this is the downtown,
And professionalism is the rule,
Even Financiers and Technologists must repas.
Then, why the jolt of surprise?
It was confirmation that our virtual lives, have too a physical form,
That our conversations of life, beauty and love,...

Alone
It was not always this way,
It did not just happen,
But one day, surrounded by love,
I was alone.
I wonder, did I fall behind or did I crawl away?
Was it wanting more and finding none?
Why did Love dissolve?
When did I become alone?
There was no one else, yet I wished there was,
Was I looking for a her, or for an idea of her.
Regardless, Love was not to be found,
And I remained alone.
Hours, Days, Months, Years have passed,
Time has no form where I'm at,
Love is still beyond my reach,
I...

Dance with Me
I see the way you walk,
I see the way you move,
I see the way you tease,
I see a dancer.
A dancer who dances alone,
A dancer who dances with purpose,
A dancer who dances for herself,
I see a dancer looking for a dance.
A dance of wants and desires,
A dance of possibilities,
A dance where the music does not matter,
cause the song plays in your heart.
A dance of the heart has two dancers,
You, the proven one,
I, the wanna be, can only hope,
This dance of yours be mine.
