sew my eyes shut
tape my mouth closed
board me up in a box
& send me off

attach the postage
drop me off
at the post
don’t open

until i see you there
and i hear you say ‘my love’
and i feel you
next to my warm skin

until then, leave me here

Love bites mark what occurred this week 
Turns out I couldn’t mask the distance between
Ending up with someone else
Added another notch in my belt

I was after someone else
My love adventure turned out to be my worst realized dream
Caught between lovers of convenience, lust, and longing

sitting across from you 
just inches away
sitting counting the beads wrapped around my wrist

This is killing me
make a move
say something
to prove
there's a reason 
why we're here

Don’t get in too deep
Remember this is only for the poetry

We circle around crazy ideas
The two of us in a be...

Without hesitation I drop you a line
Hours later in time
I wait for your reply
Thinking what will it be
And hoping for you to excite me

I’m thinking of you
And wish it would be true
That you’ve been thinking of me, too

My pulsing and racing heart
Awaits the day we’re sprawled out in the sheets
And please, let us be
Like we dream it will be

With our salty, sweet dreams of our bodi...

You called out to me

said you wanted me

felt for me

as I started to feel for you, too

It could be so easy

just as 1-2-3

maybe in another lifetime

I’d be with you, too

Maybe we don’t have to wait

you’ve got me now

you’ve got me here with you

I’d love you just the same

It could be so easy

just as 1-2-3

if it were another lifetime

I’d be wit...
