I Don’t Say I Love You Enough

I love youI don’t say it enoughBut I hope I show it In every look and interactionWhen I wake each dayYou are my motivationWith every touch and caressWhen I look in your eyesMy heart is yours; capturedWaiting for me In the eveningTo end my long dayI love youLet me say itShowing you every day TheContinue reading “I Don’t Say I Love You Enough”

Faintly In Memories

The scent of your perfume remainsFaintly on the bed sheets where we used to layThe early morning sun streams through the curtainThin shadows form across my faceAged by each morning I wake without youI miss you, though not as much as I used toMy heartbeat echoes faintly in the room we used Your ghost stillContinue reading “Faintly In Memories”

Is This Not Love?

Look around you, it lays there among the clutter and mess,The tidy corners and cleaned spills.There, where dirty socks used to lay or lay still, There, where footsteps left their imprints from the rain.Is this not love?As I sit alone in the warmth of the bed where your body did layAs I sit across fromContinue reading “Is This Not Love?”

I’m Weak

I am weak for merely, am just a manYour body I still crave though you have goneNo longer mine to set my gaze uponOver as quickly as it had beganYou rule my thoughts as only lonely canI’m small in the sight of my mirror onThe wall shining light of an early dawnMirror reflecting horrors thatContinue reading “I’m Weak”

If I Could Not Touch You

If I could never touch you again, I’d lose my will. I could not go, on or through. I’d crumble where I stood. Who could stand such cruelty? Who would do such a thing? How could I stand to look at you, knowing my hands could not feel your body again?I’d remember the feel ofContinue reading “If I Could Not Touch You”

Which Makes Our Wicked Loving Ways Sublime

Marveling at a love so fairI hold her hand in mineHer eyes meet me where I amA love true, pure and divineWhich makes our wicked loving ways sublimeFlirtatious flutters of her lashes,Lashes of her whip tailed witCut deep, so sweet, so many times;I look so forward to it.Marveling at a love so fair.Her skin soContinue reading “Which Makes Our Wicked Loving Ways Sublime”

Feelings of Faith & Despair

I cried for the moment to endTo come back againTo stay frozen forever.Anxiety?Maybe. Anticipation? Trepidation?Excitement? Desire? Fear?Why name an emotion?Instead just feel.It sits there in my gut,Waiting to erupt.Longing for you.No, waiting for you,Like a monk.My body it’s monastery.It has a faith I lack.Never looking forward or back.It knows you’ll come along,To me, for me.Continue reading “Feelings of Faith & Despair”

Boxed Out

LimitedHandcuffed to a limit I never agreed withNarrow viewOf a specific group I don’t knowBoughtAnd sold to a man with no soulI can’t standNor can I sit by, Running to a crowded exitAll your X’sand O’s mean nothingNow that you’ve boxed me in. Just One Kiss She was at a bar alone. Guy approaches andContinue reading “Boxed Out”

A Random Kind of Love

I spoke to you with words unspoken.You replied in tears, wet and full of meaning.I pulled you into my arms to hold your face to my chest.You screamed and melted into my embrace.Our arms around each other, heartbeats separated by time & space.I looked into your eyes and lost myself.You looked into my heart andContinue reading “A Random Kind of Love”

Silent Love Song

Sweet words of flatteryTruth wrapped in soliloquyThe moment your heart stole mineI want you as my valentineMy love song to youSimple words and melodyI can’t sing to you Lullabies of a sweet good nightIf you were in my arms it would be alrightWhen I hear your moansI forget everything that I’ve knownMy love song toContinue reading “Silent Love Song”
