A SPECIAL BOND
A special bond with someone you just met is amazing when you can, see and feel the energy of the vibes as you feel comfortable in each others skin. JUST between the two of us as, we look deep into each other's eye to eye and see the true character of what, we are building together a life by STEEL AND STONES. As we express our true inner intentions, with realness of desire for that is REAL AS IT GETS, JUST BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE something. That we can cherish in the process of creating a real strong commitment, with real consistency and devotion and respect. For that is what it takes if we are...

Lessons of the Unyielding Heart
I thought I'd learned, could say goodbye,
In the quiet space where candles glow,
I thought I'd wrapped you up, could let you go.
I whispered spells to banish love's sweet pain,
Hoping when I'd look, your ghost wouldn't remain.
Yet my heart rebels, alive and raw,
Stirred by every echo of your name it ever saw.
Nights unfold in dreams of your lingering touch,
My head knows it's wrong, but my heart claims it's right.
How I've struggled to cut our lasting tie,
But love has truths that even reason can't deny.
I'm still enrolled in...
In the quiet space where candles glow,
I thought I'd wrapped you up, could let you go.
I whispered spells to banish love's sweet pain,
Hoping when I'd look, your ghost wouldn't remain.
Yet my heart rebels, alive and raw,
Stirred by every echo of your name it ever saw.
Nights unfold in dreams of your lingering touch,
My head knows it's wrong, but my heart claims it's right.
How I've struggled to cut our lasting tie,
But love has truths that even reason can't deny.
I'm still enrolled in...

Love and Other Myths
Crying, the years flow from his eyes.
Time sifting through the mouth of lies.
Flashback dancing in puddles of pain,
a forced smile to hide his disdain.
He longs to kiss her apocalypse.
Such comfort on the bosom of shame.
Accepting the taste of his loneliness,
refusing to call her by name.
So distant the path to remembrance.
A course wrought with fear and demise.
Compelled by the scent of a woman,
a life trapped behind soulless skies.
Her touch though fantasy, felt real.
Breathing life to a heart that can’t...

When she looks at me
When she looks at me, I feel like a house full of busted windows.
The wind just blows right through me.
The wind just blows right through me.

Endless Night
May i
Touch you
To know
You are real
Feel your
Ever racing pulse
feel the thunder
Of your heart
Cover you
With my skin
As goosebumps
Tingles spread
Holding you
As if a delicate rose
Awakening
In the morning dew
Kiss your soul
As lips impart
Their soft
Palpable connection
May i be lover
In the physical sense
For spiritual
Is not enough
The flame
Burning ache
Raging
Inside of me
Wants...

UnreQUITed
I often hoped for a trauma whether by car accident or fate
where these committed emotions would muddle my mental state
Ending the torment of the imprinted ghostly silhouette of my investments in you, lesson learned, support given and the love felt seeing you win.
Loving you with everything I am and everything I prayed we could have been.
Heavy trauma can make us detach from what we have experienced and from people around us
I’m not a face in your crowded room, not the air only the dust
Can the happiness be created again?
I doubt...
where these committed emotions would muddle my mental state

Heavy trauma can make us detach from what we have experienced and from people around us
I’m not a face in your crowded room, not the air only the dust
Can the happiness be created again?

sunsets never end
i take it from your longing i’m the apple of your eye
but no words left could fathom what my heart couldn’t describe
restless nights and cancelled flights oh how i miss the view
when the sun would settle for you
romantic fiend and though it seems
for lust he knows too well
he bangs the door on marble floors
no roommate in his cell
when love and pain is all the same
the lines do not exist
her name written on
my wrist
it seems that you’re doing so well
the scent of blood has not left your smell
your favors do...
but no words left could fathom what my heart couldn’t describe

Light and Longing
Orange light funneling out on the water
A yellow beam greets it, missing synchronicity
Two fellows of solitude; signalling sanctuary
But their gaze never meets
As their selfless beacons dance upon the sea
How doomed are the rays
that never cross paths,
How romantic the intentions
that fall short of the mark?
Isnt the anticipation part of the thrill...
Do not the waves disturb the ocean still?
Perhaps lightkeepers are happy with their lot
To pour hours into good company,
the point is not
Then how sad for me...
A yellow beam greets it, missing synchronicity
Two fellows of solitude; signalling sanctuary
But their gaze never meets
As their selfless beacons dance upon the sea
How doomed are the rays
that never cross paths,
How romantic the intentions
that fall short of the mark?
Isnt the anticipation part of the thrill...
Do not the waves disturb the ocean still?
Perhaps lightkeepers are happy with their lot
To pour hours into good company,
the point is not
Then how sad for me...
