POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write when I'm moved to it. I write what I'm feeling or going through. I like all poetry styles, and will use whatever works best to portray my ideas. My poetry tends to center around love and relationships, but it is not exclusive to that theme.
Do You Think of Me
I remember me and you standing outside of your room in the silence of the night
It was warm but I was cool so I held onto you as we mapped out the sky
And now I’m standing here remembering how you disappeared and I can’t help but wonder
When you look up at the North Star, do you think of me?
When you're driving in your car, do you think of me?
When you hear all of the songs that we used to sing along to when we were together
Does it make you see all those memories?
I remember every drive we were riding side by side as we worked out...
It was warm but I was cool so I held onto you as we mapped out the sky
And now I’m standing here remembering how you disappeared and I can’t help but wonder
When you look up at the North Star, do you think of me?
When you're driving in your car, do you think of me?
When you hear all of the songs that we used to sing along to when we were together
Does it make you see all those memories?
I remember every drive we were riding side by side as we worked out...

Work of Art
You’ve said that I'm a work of art
But never did you see
That every single bit of you
Is all that I could need
Your sun kissed skin I loved to taste
A drug I'll always choose
Forever I’ll appreciate
The picture that is you
Your wit and your intelligence
There’s beauty when you speak
You’ve overcome such great misfortunes
Anything but weak
Your molten liquid golden eyes
In which I'd love to drown
I even miss the vision of
A furrow in your brow
So deeply do you think and feel ...
But never did you see
That every single bit of you
Is all that I could need
Your sun kissed skin I loved to taste
A drug I'll always choose
Forever I’ll appreciate
The picture that is you
Your wit and your intelligence
There’s beauty when you speak
You’ve overcome such great misfortunes
Anything but weak
Your molten liquid golden eyes
In which I'd love to drown
I even miss the vision of
A furrow in your brow
So deeply do you think and feel ...

Crying
My baby's crying’s constant
With heavy screaming too
And soothing her is difficult
Since I'm still missing you
You say that this was for the best
If you could only see
I'm crying with my baby
While you're not here for me
Swinging face down in your arms
I miss that way you'd hold her
I wish that you’d have stayed with me
To watch as she grows older
But here we cry still without you
Both making quite a fuss
Since I can't soothe my baby
As I'm still mourning us
With heavy screaming too
And soothing her is difficult
Since I'm still missing you
You say that this was for the best
If you could only see
I'm crying with my baby
While you're not here for me
Swinging face down in your arms
I miss that way you'd hold her
I wish that you’d have stayed with me
To watch as she grows older
But here we cry still without you
Both making quite a fuss
Since I can't soothe my baby
As I'm still mourning us

Her
I love her,
With each piece of my soul
I love her,
Want to let that love grow
I love her,
Every bit of it shows
I love her,
I just wish she could know
With each piece of my soul
I love her,
Want to let that love grow
I love her,
Every bit of it shows
I love her,
I just wish she could know

To Be Yours
To belong to you
Even just for a moment
Was the world to me
Even just for a moment
Was the world to me

In Love With
I’m in love with her,
Even if I’d like to doubt it.
I’m in love with her,
Yet I know it won’t allow it.
I’m in love with her,
Still I have to live without it.
I’m in love with her,
Can’t do anything about it.
Even if I’d like to doubt it.
I’m in love with her,
Yet I know it won’t allow it.
I’m in love with her,
Still I have to live without it.
I’m in love with her,
Can’t do anything about it.

Of you
My thoughts float
To your lines
The curve of your smile
It’s as though
I’ve ascended
Among those troubled
They feel
Just and pure
As heavy as light
To your lines
The curve of your smile
It’s as though
I’ve ascended
Among those troubled
They feel
Just and pure
As heavy as light

What I Wanted
A desire to be permeated
An urge to fill the senses
Greatest want to drown
Inside of your presence
Until unable to discern
One’s beginning or end
To taste your breath
To feel your skin
I didn’t want
To go back
An urge to fill the senses
Greatest want to drown
Inside of your presence
Until unable to discern
One’s beginning or end
To taste your breath
To feel your skin
I didn’t want
To go back

You’re…..
As protective as a father,
As watchful as a brother.
As fun as a cousin,
As adorable as a nephew.
As funny as a grandpa,
As exciting as an uncle.
As caring as a friend,
As understanding as a bestie.
As supportive as a partner,
As loving as a spouse.
You're as wonderful to me,
As a man could ever be.
As watchful as a brother.
As fun as a cousin,
As adorable as a nephew.
As funny as a grandpa,
As exciting as an uncle.
As caring as a friend,
As understanding as a bestie.
As supportive as a partner,
As loving as a spouse.
You're as wonderful to me,
As a man could ever be.
