Seasons
Walking towards you
Brisk winter night
At the kettle on the corner
I see you in the light
Walking with you
Seeing the sights
Warm summer night
I see you as my knight
Turning away from you
Brisk winter night
At the door
I turn out the light

new year
Never ending roundabout discussions
Every reunion going nowhere
Endless frustrations with each repeat
Always about you, never about me
You never saw that but agreed when I said
You don’t need to respect my wishes for no contact
Just respect me
I respect me and nowhere together is now somewhere alone
Happier me

just being myself
I am myself in how I act and react yet...
I'm too cold
or
I'm too much
or
I'm too direct
or
I'm too aloof
or
I'm too needy
Which is it?
Whatever it may be, it's not important how you see me any more.
If I was important to you, you would take me whatever I may be.
I am just being myself

you...
Thoughts of you
Thoughts of lust
Things that you will do to me
Things that are a must
Dreams of you
Dreams of lust
Feelings that you will give to me
Feelings that are a must
Notions of you
Notions of lust
Desires that you will give to me
Desires that are a must

not yet begun
Words of seduction
More powerful than image
Lead to ultimate scrimmage
Time for introduction

Home for the holidays
Homecoming over white hills, blue waters
Inhale cool fresh air, exhale slowly to remember the sensation
Warm embraces from family and friends
Wood stove heat warms me to core, comforting blanket
View of the ocean, littered with sea ice waiting to form
Fishing boats resting for long winter ahead
Visits with old friends, laughter over coffee and sweets
Reminiscing, old times and...

overwhelmed
No time for it all
Must make time
Never ending cycle
Work, school, family, friends, chores, fitness, errands
Take away from sleep for chores
Take away from sleep for school
Take away from sleep for friends
No time for it all
Must make time
Running on the wheel of life
Work, school, family, friends, chores, fitness, errands
Take away from rest for family
Take awa...

missing you
Missing you, since you've been away
Long to hear your mmm's and whispers
Soon again in my ear
Feel the vibrations, and your breath on my skin
For now it's words or face on a screen
The face I want to take in my hands and kiss
To forget about these separations, months at a time
Standing at the airport, waiting anxiously
To feel your arms around me as we meet
The crowd tur...

paradox
So close
Yet so far away
All at the same time
So lonely
Yet so surrounded by love
All at the same time
So confused
Yet so clear
All at the same time
Close these gaps
Yet mend the lines
All at the same time

Polarity
As I seek the knowledge of the opposite sex
Pursue that Holy Grail. Will I profit greatly?
Seething under pressure of externals lately
Release me from the duress, conversations that vex
The hidden jewels stolen by an unknown burglar
Anxious uncovering of items in cellar
As the chest is broken to reveal propeller
Examining object brushing away splinter
Opening assets to thunderous effec...

lip service
So much these days
Don't listen to what he says
It's just more of what I want to hear
Too many words I can't bear
Tell it to me straight
Not facts that I know you create
Why be nervous
Skip the lip service

butterflies, where are they?
They should be there when I know I am seeing you.
They should be there when I hear you knock on my door.
They should be there when you kiss me hello.
They should be there when you hold my hand.
They should be there when our clothes fall to the floor.
They should be there but they aren't....

the spoons
Sleeping soundly, little spoon to your big
Your soft lips, day old stubble on my neck
Your fingertips lightly grazing my hip
Slowly stirring from your gentle embraces
Pressing closer to you, feeling your arousal
You maneuver me to my back, your body covering mine
Kissing me deeply, my passion building to meet yours
Your arms around me, your chest pressing to me
Your legs sp...

Stage is set...
Candles burning bright
Music playing low
Two people, two lives
Stage is set
Follow the script
Walk the aisle
Say I do
Two people, one life
Stage is set
Follow the script
Sunny, fun destination
Create a home
Two people, one life
Stage is set
Follow the script
Seed not growing
Distance born instead
Two people, two lives

happy tears
Radio playing in the background as I do the Saturday chores
Dancing and humming, dusting and sweeping
Spring time breeze, open windows and fresh clean smells
A familiar melody and beat swirl around me
Remembering the words, smile on my lips
And my heart swells
Suddenly transported back to the same girl in teenage form
Dancing and laughing, summertime beach bonfire

the little things
Unexpected hug as I cook dinner
A glancing touch as you walk by
A post it note by the door telling me to have a good day
A text out of the blue during the day
Taking my hand as we walk through the city
Surprise weekend away, just because
A bathtub full of bubbles drawn
Colourful flowers on the counter

good morning
Slowly stirring from slumber deep
Open eyes, adjust to the dawn’s light
Lazily stretching limbs, emerging from under covers
Reaching over, his spot is empty and cool to the touch
How long has he been awake and gone?
Thinking he’s so sweet to let me continue my dreams
Hearing signs of life outside bedroom
Reaching for robe, sliding toes into slippers
Shuffling along, gr...

crave
Tender touch of fingertips
Exposed skin on neck
Soft moist kisses
Whispered promises of pleasure
Deep intake of breath
Sudden light flutters
Hands pulling me close
Mouth on my mouth
Deep possessive kisses
Pressed against the wall
Arms pinned over head
Breathless and craving
Turning me facing wall
Lifting dress to waist
Sound of zipper
Entering...

Memories of paradise
Blanket on the sand
Aqua blue water view
Sun and breeze caressing skin
Never want this to end
Toes in the sand
Walking into the ocean
Waves and currents on skin
Never want this to end
Wind on the water
Seabirds in the sky
Palm tree shade on skin
Never want this to end

your story
Pen to paper
Fingers to keys
No matter what road chosen
However you please
Tell your story
Bare your soul
No matter what part first
Release your whole

empty
the emptiness hurts
like a blade turning deep
dull aching, tearing me apart
silence is overwhelming
lack of words hurting more than a million
deafening emptiness
painful waves lap at my heart
reminding me of its broken pieces
wondering if it will ever heal enough to give it away
darkness all around -- closing in cutting me off
no one to hear my scream
no one to wipe my tears
no o...

temptation
Words sending chills down my spine
Should I let him be mine
Tempting, so tempting
Images causing burning butterflies
There will be no ties
Tempting, so tempting
Words and images swirling alongside
Should I let him inside
Tempting, so tempting
Holding the cards, poker face
Cat and mouse, end this chase
Decide, must decide
