foreign language April 16, 2008

you look into my eyes
from across the room
and the corners of your mouth
reach toward heaven
as if to thank God personally
for sending me to you
your hands linger
in the small of back
when we embrace
and your heart beat tells me
thats where you want me to stay
and with those same hands
you grip her hips
as if lifting her out of [...]

::untitled:: March 13, 2008

nothing more than actors on a stage
and this is our intermission
waiting for the ending
and so we hold onto the beginning
love is our most underused prop
all else we have forgot
i remain on this platform
unstable ground that i fall on
lines quickly erased from my memory
and the persons beside me
soon remove themselves from the set
thousands look on
waiting to [...]

detached February 7, 2008

pain is to blame
and seperation
thats what you fear
or is that what you run to??
tears building seas
too deep to swim in
and so i drown
attempting to save your heart
from waters that never end
daggers of hurt
pierce thru broken hearts
and this is what seperated you from God??
or simply what seperates you
from the soul of angels on earth
detached are the [...]

a self destruction February 1, 2008

between two hearts
theres a pain
a tiring strain
an emptiness
that love cant fill
red magic markers try
but to no avail
brokeness cant be covered up
colored in
for ink drips down the cracks
lingering from our eyes
polluting the cheeks
that we foolishly kiss
violating words
that flow from our lips
leaving us with nothing
but a burning sensation
in the pit of our stomachs
and i wonder
how long do [...]

if i could write you a letter… January 30, 2008

dear you
hello my love
to whome it may concern
to the one
who has shattered fragile spaces
with words left unsaid
to the one
whose frightening silence
has birthed a new pain

if i could write you a letter

the salutation would stop abruptly
at exactly 6 pages long
because the things you mean to me
would go on and on and on

if i could write you [...]

a fool like you… December 17, 2007

I guess The Spinners said it best
cause it truely takes a fool
love dont love nobody
and love is sometimes cruel
like a dagger thru your soul
that you wouldn’t take out if you could
pain that makes you stay
wouldn’t walk away even tho you should
but see, I’ve been where you are
haven’t really moved from that place
so I know what [...]

come join me November 19, 2007

come join me in a dinner
lit by candles and the stars
come join me in a walk
and only time can tell us how far
come join me in a dance
our hearts can play the beat
come join me at a picnic for two
mini sandwiches and fruit to eat
come join me in romance
more beautiful than anything before
come join me [...]

when God sent us you November 5, 2007

you’re amazing
and i know you feel it
everybody crowd around
cause they know what the deal is
and it’s funny cause I never thought
i’d find this security in you
deserving everything you get
cause of everything you been thru
been dismissed by so many
but you got mad love from the heart of me
i bet you never thought after all these years
you’d [...]

selfish sins October 18, 2007

her body shines
like stars of the sky
&& i wonder if she feel my eyes travel
they go for while
down the curves of her side
and then they stop
right at the point
where her back slops peacefully
delving in and coming back out
exposing love handles that are just the right size
her skin looks like hershey
and i can taste her kiss
and [...]

old you October 16, 2007

if i could go anywhere
i’d go back in time
when nothing mattered
and we were living the life
i would go back to the craziness
if it meant seeing a smile on your face
because you are not yourself
and no one could take your place
i would go back to the days, rather the nights
that we sat on my rooftop
and we [...]
