Wide eyed
Staring at the rhythm
Tongue tied
Damn and gosh
Almost speechless
Slick movements
Move closer
In slow motion
Released thoughts
Steady grunts
Mesmerized picture
Up and down
Come here
Photograph it
with your mind

Constant waves of happiness
Soaring and gliding in silver air
A unspoken soft and gentle touch
Hot whispers dripping from
her sensitive earlobe
A tickling pleasure back and forth
Conversations lead to sweet love
Clothes thrown to the floor
A world of explorations
Appreciating the fondness
Capturing the endearments
Cuddling up to the closeness
Loyalty swarming with every thrust
I love you’s falling from the sky
Cherishing the unity
Madly in love with the rapture
Refusing to ever let go
Check out my books!

I see paradise in your
endearing photograph
Can’t stop looking at you
I see utopia on your
alluring lipstick
Can’t stop looking at you
I see the garden of Eden
in your mystical eyes
Can’t stop looking at you
I see milk and honey
from head to toe
Can’t stop looking at you
I see perfection and
and everlasting desire for you
Never will I stop
looking at you

She has eyes like the sunrise
and deep scabs like diamonds
She has darkness in her clouds
and she could see the light
She has everlasting dreams
and tenderness in her veins
She has discolored nightmares
and the blood drips from her wounds
She has beauty in her mind
and fears up on a shelf
She has loyalty in a grip
and dedication on her sleeve
She has a glass world of love
and sensitivity woven in her skin
She has purity in her voice
and gentleness in her spirit

Florescent wildfire
A scattered chill
Ignited by your tongue
World class enthusiast
Lessons learned
Sincerely apologetic
Exposed to your
magnetizing glass world
Sensing fragility
But armor and strength
Cherishing every second
Recording your laughter
Questions compiling
Curiosity rises
Raising me to the clouds
Wishing for three more hours
Calmly
I wait for my empress
Delicately
I dwell in her vast ocean
Patiently
I embrace her awakened scars
Quietly
I salivate for her two words
Passionately
I wait for her wicked arrival
Faithfully
I cradle her butterfly skin
Sincerely
I welcome the grand gesture
Softly
I sit here waiting for her two words

Once upon a time,
I used to wish for a love like ours,
Once upon a time
I pondered that very phrase.
I sat under those bright stars beside you
and saw the words “forever” ring in my ears.
Or at least a love that the stars would forever engrave in themselves,
To be look upon with awe and wonder,
Questions of how did they over come the odds and make it to that kind of happiness,
A love worthy of songs and fairy tales and beauty,
As we gazed into each other’s eyes
I wanted to see a glimpse of happiness.
In my heart I could feel the world stop
but darling in my mind our lives continued.
But I’m starting to find that once upon a time only begin once,
The moment had scratches and it was no longer clear to me.
The only clarity I saw was that we should no longer stare in the fairy tale and stare into reality.
And everything that falls in between is up to chance.
Love is just not a word in a song, card, or in a poem.
Love isn’t just displayed in a movie scene or a play.
Love requires action, consistency, and a splash of romance.
So darling, I could be your perfect once upon a disaster,
Tangles in the highest tower laced with thorns and roses, tasted in the last bite of the poisoned apple,
Or….or we can work to create a new fairy tale.
Once I threw our written fairy tale in the trash can I grabbed a note pad.
I wrote 10 reasons why I am madly in love with you.
I wrote 10 reasons why I want to be with you.
I tore this sheet out of the notepad and placed it on the refrigerator.
Let the old stars die, fall with the hearts of those before us,
I don’t need a fairy tale nor a “Once Upon A Time” beginning.
Sweetheart, my love, I just need to be open, expressive, intuitive, caring, and considerate.
And lets give birth to a new galaxy full of stars that will shine and dazzle those who look up and wish a forever on once upon a time….
If I truly love you, every day that word “forever” will truly mean something.
Forever starts with my attitude, outlook, and the desire to show you how much you mean to me.

I had done a collaboration with Kristen and it was quite fun! Kristen is a wonderful writer. Please check out her blog if you haven’t – you will read some great poetry!

Eyes filled of ocean blue
A smile that turns me into mush
Unexplainable amounts of love
Precious and adorable
Billion dollar laughter
In awe of his presence
A curious personality
Blessed and lucky on the inside
Crinkled stars
Above all the broken hearts
Lost in direction
Hope is found
On the frozen ground
Losing its affection
The pieces are missing
Dandelions are kissing
My world is aching
I want what she has
I want it just as bad
I want something breathtaking
Could you play a melody
and add another verse
Could you play a guitar
to remove all the hurt

Treading in galoshes
Up stream and down hill
Never ending miles
Tangled up in procrastination
Knee deep in the weeds
Under a bellowing sky
Destinations creep
Wearing a hundred pound
Black as night raincoat
Seeking answers
But caught lingering
Searching for light
But longing for security
Only drops of gloom
follow me on the dirt path
to Linger Longer Lane

I find that life is all about perception. I can see a glass half empty or half full. I find that I can worry about what I can control and not worry about what I can’t. I find the light within the dark. I find beauty within the scars. I find stages, scratches, and atmosphere that I can’t see. I find the exits of them when I look back. I find that I use more of my logic than emotion to see clarity. I find that I remove the complexity to unravel the simplicity. I find the passion within my words. I find I have to own up to my mistakes. I find that I have to continue learning. I find that I have to continue to evolve. I find the joy in what I have and don’t complain about what I don’t have. I find that I didn’t forget where I came from. I find that I know where I’m going. Why? I know where I was and where I am today in every aspect of my life. It all starts with perception.

Charming pavement
Dazzling hopscotch
Skipping and jumping
Appreciation overload
Barely touching
the luminous ground
Dressed in affection
Block away from the
Everlasting sugar factory
A smile away from the
beaming playground
Sounds of belly ache
laughter and pride
Wishing the entire town
was abundant of love
and respecting humanity
Hoping and praying
the elated joy will expand
beyond this holy cement

I kissed your lips for the first time and felt a chill travel down my spine. I savored the goosebumps. I knew it was the beginning of something amazing. I felt love echo. I embraced the tapestry. I didn’t want to stop kissing you. I saw a glimpse of our future within the melting. I saw skies open up and felt rain dance on my tongue. I was petrified. A part of me was frozen but yet another part was mesmerized. I knew when I placed my hand on your cheek this was meant to be forever.

I am filled with darkness
and completely empty
I am losing touch
with full packages
I can not relate
Please fill me
with old clothes
to give to the poor
Please fill me
with toys
that children
can play with
Please fill me with
something meaningful
so that I can help
the deprived world
I am empty for a reason
to give others light

From the glistening waves
to the boundless shore
Strings of love dwell
in the enchanted violin
From the untamed daisies
to the serene marigolds
Appetites of wicked flames
burn in a pink stratosphere
From the beaming sunrise
to the caress of your hand
Admiration is a blazing star
above Cupids’ Dream Drive
Shadows or darkness
become a lost road of lust
Only worship and devotion
entwine on this long concrete

Your lips
are meant for talking
with sarcasm and intelligence
Your lips
are meant for sucking
lollipops and hard candy
Your lips
are meant to turn me into a
a pile of mush and goo
When are you going to use them?

I can’t sleep
without the scent of your pillow
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without you beside me
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without your warm embrace
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without a kiss good night
Toss and turn
I can’t sleep
without saying I love you
Toss and turn
****

In this reflective light I couldn’t see your enigma
In this reflective light I couldn’t see your
dark wild
And the bricks stack up
In this reflective light I couldn’t see your
shades of gloom
In this reflective light I couldn’t see your
leaves twist in your tiring wind
And the bricks stack up higher
In this reflective light I couldn’t see your
blinding aggravation
In this reflective light I couldn’t see your
scorching tragedy
And the bricks surround me
