In The Shadow of Your Smile

I live in the shadow of your smile

And I like the way it lights your eyes;

I like your style

 

My senses stir with the fragrance of your soul

And I like the way it lingers

So I’ll linger too, for a while

 

My heartbeat races when we touch

And I like your warmth; the way you feel

I like your smile

 

You way you talk is like a song

That plays easy on my ears

An unexpected visitor

I was surprised by an unexpected visitor today. She kissed my cheek with her warmth and enveloped me with with her brilliance. Few are the ones who see her true beauty. The world had been so dark without her, so cold. I missed her dearly but now she is back. She gives life to the frozen hearts. She fills the soul with laughter and bubbly expression. She loves me and I love her….. Her name is Sprin...

A Glimpse

I saw a glimpse of spring today
While riding in the truck
I never knew how sweet it smelled 
Untill the light possesed my soul
I thought the night of winter would forever consume my eternity
but oh how wrong I was because....
I saw a glimpse of spring today

The smell of sweet remembrance of a childhood long passed by 
will forever haunt by being
But in that moment I was entrapped in a w...

eclipsed

And in her arms a baby

bright as a daffodil.

Rays of light

emanate

from this child.

 

He remembers a game -

“do you like butter?”

and thinks he sees

a golden glow reflected

on his young wife’s throat…

 

Pollen-headed

the baby has

a smile that gleams

audacious as the sun!

undeniable demands

as a full breast is nuzzled

De-come-possed

stark organic matter

excreting tastes of life

tied to a cycle

destined to a path

seen by none

the rules of competition

forever consumed by the glory

light to light

The Jagged Edge of Love

This must be my longest night
the moon laying its heavy light right down
this room swims in so much gossiping
conversations; always imagined and impossible

This must be my longest night
the blurred echoes of all we did ring ‘round
there’s no sleep to be had, just counting stars
and scenes replaying; rose or shit tinted now

I found the jagged edge of love
it cut right across my heaving...

Snow Flake

You come and you go

astressed with the trade winds

Tiny ghost dancer

flows to my head

clear and timed

tastes of sparkling ciders melt in my eye

attempting to leave no trace

I hold the proof of our a-cult

reforming love 

vitalizing movements seize life

breath exits as I consumed you

as glass inherits my soul 

timed and clear

breakable in an extraterrestrial se...

I'd Dream About Love ,If I Could.

I’d dream about love

If I could.

Instead I dream about motorbikes and racing cars

About writing books and a sailing barge

But I’d dream about love,

If I could.

 

Sometimes I dream about a pretty girl

With beautiful hair and big round eyes

She dreams about love,

Well, if she doesn’t,

she should.

 

I’d dream about love

If I dared.

Instead I dream about su...

The Rise and Fall of the Stronghold of Love

When others are in love

Things can go so well

yet at many other times

it seems as though they fell

Is It Truly?

Is This alright?

I mean really, is it at all?

I don't want it to become a fight

So I keep putting up my walls.

 

 

You keep trying to deny it

all my feelings of love for you

but I dont think I can quit

for I want it tobe us two

 

 

Love is like a never ending war

It always happens in the core

I cannot chose who I will love

for it comes from somewhere up...

Trickle Towards Tomorrow

Trickling Towards Tomorrow

Everything Trickles
The tears, they trickle down my cheek
Just like everything else does.
Time trickles day by day,
Sometimes fast, like a river rushing towards the sea,
Often times slow, slow as my tears,
For it is these moments that I remember,
And all the joyful ones I keep discarding.
The tears come from many sources,
Whether it is the loss of something I...

When You Used to Love Me, I Loved Myself.

To be read listening to: Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-Flat Minor Op. 23 - Allegro non troppo

 

 

When you used to love me,

I thought loved myself.

On teenage stomachs we kissed,

On old friends sheets we stabbed one another.

One knife bent and lost in a concrete river,

The other shining and clean.

Upon entry,

And retrieval.

 

When I used to love you,

I wasn't who...

THE FAMILY - an Acrostic poem

 

 

There’s one word that everyone should know and treasure

Hold in reverence for life long companionship and pleasure

Even on the darkest days when pain and distress abound

Family is the one word that can bring a comforting sound

All can benefit if they simply recall their sister & brother

Maybe they are distant people they have yet to discover

In this world there is but o...
