Many thoughts stir my heartAs I ponder alone.Many places attract me With charms of their own But my thought of all thoughts When her smile does afford This place of all places She strikes such a chord It’s the end of my pain When she smiles at my faceIt’s the word of her heart To my prodigal spaceIt’s the greatest and grandest gift She could impartSurpassing my reason And winning my heart
Outside, outside! The storm rages on.Purple talons, raking the stars and tearing thenight sky asunder! The low inhuman rumble thatinevitably follows is a sign that the beast has notbeen satisfied yet. The steady drone of rain, unpredictable, erratic,random yet certain. It swells and dips, sometimesa murmur, sometimes a scream as loud as the regalbeast it gives way to. No rhyme, no reason, a forceof nature that can not be...
Today, I watched as a Monarch fluttered by,Delicate as she moved here and there. So much of a Monarch’s life is hiddenAnd yet their form is rich beyond compare.Such grace within a captive soul,Trapped in a cage of bittersweet memories,Wanting to indulge, but not knowing how.Longing to break free, but not knowing how.Her colour, vibrant, shining like the sun How can I hope to see such a vision again,Must I use a net to be...
Hip Hip Hooray Three cheers for the squid that taught me to dance, To dance with bear and butterflies, but most of all to dance with her. And in her precious arms, she held me tight Safe from the past, Secure for today, Free for my future. My body melded with hers, Our interlocution made strong Through her presence, becoming as one But, If you could see her eyes, the way they sparkle, As she sees her love after six mont...
Throughout my adulthood,I have wondered what it would be likeTo have a relationship,To make so many lasting memories That we could have shared,And pass on our experiences. But the only problem,Is my low confidence and self-esteem That every time gets in the way,Maybe I could lose some weightBut would this still be enough,To build my confidence. Maybe looking back,I could have done things differently And approached that gi...
Still no message Looking longingly at the screen Wondering why you have not messaged me Will you message me, if not, why not Have I upset you, do you no longer want me Still no message I try to distract my mind There must be something else I can do Could turn off the phone, no I might miss it Still no message Should I message you, should I go first Would I appear desperate, would you even respond My mind is full of do...
The day you entered, I was forever yours. I feel quite the perplexion. reliving this invisible connection between me and thee. Away, I'm a mess stumbling. Lost, I go around rumbling, fumbling through my day. Obligations of working, eating, and sleeping become meaningless. They're keeping me from even seeing you. Across the distance, I see your face, and such a wondrous place I've entered. Everything just dis...
I want you to lie to meSay everything is going to bePostcard moments, our designThat I'll be yours and you'll be mine.Some day, maybe far from nowNot trapped by circumstance and vowsUnchained from choices long agoThat now seem false amid your glow. Tell me we'll arrange to staySome hotel one night, far awayFreedom bought from everythingExcept the heat of skin on skin.Rampant flames of kisses richOf bodies bucking, finge...
Put Your love in Me My love races to your heart Because I can hardly breathe Put your love in me Put your love on me If you think you are losing me You are crazy I'm never going to let you go Even when you thought it easy Put your love in me Put your love in me Tuck me in our bed Wake me when I'm dead Only then I know you will be free But I will never let you go Put your love in me Put your love in me If you were a...
As I lay here on the beach,As the waves brake upon the shoreI dream and wonderWhat is just over the horizon. Closing my eyes,Dreaming of what lies beyond the horizonOver where I just can’t seeFearful to move close knowing,It’s always just out of reach. The thought that feel it beckons me close,The chance of a new lifeIs an offer I can’t refuseA world in which I am reborn,Is something I can’t let slip. Is this something t...
You have seen the shape of my mortality The inescapable struggle of loneliness and pain Yet, you choose to give me the gift of life and love And I am unflinchingly alive Irrepressibly alive Fully alive Full of experiencing Every fragile Miraculous Juicy Aching Tender Beautiful ounce of love Igniting the fire that burns against the midnight of my indifference
In the depth of my soul's great longingI am coming, dear muse, towards theeGiving each thought and deed for reflection Let thy touch now descend upon me Stay close to meLay with meTend the fires of passion that burn so strongly Grant me patience to wait your next visitYou inhabit my thoughts in abundance Take great care, as you move through your dayThen come, find your home within my arms Stay close to meLay with me Ten...

Why am I staring at my phone? Endlessly checking my email and searching for other signs? Inexorably drawn together, our bodies, hearts, and our minds. Am I really making myself this crazy,when you're right there in my heart? Two people who never met,our souls bound together but our bodies so far apart. I can't seem to get you out of my mind. And I'm more than happy to dance with you there. Your heartbeat echoes mine. And...
March 13th, Dear Diary, Well, today was shit. Nothing new there. My work day was overloaded - like usual, I dropped my coffee and stained my shirt, ripped a stocking and the guy I've been trying to be semi-serious with is only interested in having a lay. Now, after being unable to decompress on my own, I'm sitting here on my couch with a bottle of Chardonnay and my largest - and favorite of late - wine glass while I try...
