Love Is

True Love is Sacrifice 
A life where you don't have Ever to ask twice
Where two rights are never Wrong
& The nights Last so long
But Go So quick
In the times you Need a Lift 
It's there so swift
With a hug of love and gentle Kiss
The feel is real & it can't be missed
Love Is timeless. Love is kindness
The moment you own it
That's when you'll find this
It is a Reminding That God is Real
A Binding when timing is Still
And your aligning Is combining with Feel
Love is silent Never violent
It is reliance Without defiance
It is unexplained how It takes away the pain
When life is a drain it Is a Gain
Love does not steal It only heals
It knows your name & it knows the deal
When you feel life is a prison cell
It Takes you To heaven 
When you were locked in this Hell
It's not a thoughtless spell
But a peace of Mind 
And peaceful to find
It Treats you too kind
It will see you through who's blind
Love Is Never Tasteless it is always Gracious
& when you are faced with displacement
It is there To care & erase it
It stays in the days 
& is just the right light When Nocturnal
Love is Everything. Love is Eternal

What Is Love

Love is a mystery
Yet it can be so sweet
Love is your history
& the feeling of complete
Love can be euphoric
As well as foreign
Love should be exciting
Not telling stories of boring
Love is that hope
When you need Faith
Love is clean like soap
And forgives others like Grace
Love is a passion
That burns deep inside
Love sometimes passes
Although it keeps to remind
Love is not fascist
It breathes breath needed to revive
Love is a facet
Giving Life to those that died
Love is Empathic
Reliving to coincide
Love is a passage
To open the gates of Life
Love is so Lavish
And love is going to Survive

Balance

It is a condition where elements are equal,
It gives you the ability to tell other people
You respect them & do not  sweat them
Never walking on pins And needles
It lets you remain calm, 
Like the scriptures Psalms
Knowing for certain the world's Your Palm
Its comparing the value of one another
Its a sharing Of how you Treat your lover
Its the reason this season You dont compare
You can leave it & be with the ones that care
You do not dare To point the finger
Its in the air so let it linger
You're not too left, you're not too right
You're not too day, you're not too night
You're nothing too much 
& you're nothing too little
Just enough love to never belittle
This is the riddle we all must solve
Learn to remain BALANCED 
In return you learn to Evolve

Expectations

I guess I expect
Those Exceptional
Best of the Best
OR just let it Go
Passing the Test
That's Incredible
The Last to just Rest
Past Invincible
Has to Impress
In Visual
Ask with no less
Dependable
No nag or no pest
Recommendable
Classiest yet
Impeccable
Don't ask but just gets
So Sensible...
Yet the facts will show
That it's Impractical
To expect the Rest
To be so Flexible
Acrobatical
Intensive mode
So Radical
My intent should go
So Compatible
Sensational
My paddle rows
My engine goes
Infallible
Pretending though
I needed to know
Till I leave it & Go

The Mystery of Lying

Trust is rare & Truth is Free
Lies will cost you... More than a Fee
Why do we Lie....What is the High
To cover who we are
Or just to Comply
Is it easier now
To give a false Reply
Amazing somehow
All can Justify
Dusting tracks from last night
Just list the facts
& No fight will Ignite
The tip toeing Acts
That were tracked at midnight
Is it shame from what we pursue
Then why do we do what we Do
A shameful mention
Of No intention hurt you
Yet your intentions are guilty
And just another Excuse
Your eyes read filthy 
As well as your smell too
Why not be honest
& Do as you Promise
Who has the Answer
Who has the Knowledge....

She Was a Pistol

She was a cold piece of Work
Smooth as steel
Long slender figure
And a look that could kill
She was all real
American Made
Her type was well liked
Even in the western days
She'll make you feel safe
And tell you it's Ok
She's rarely alone
And hates being at home
She moves sexy & slow
And one by one
She involves them 
Then revolves them, 
& throws them away 
When she's done.

Grateful

When I wake up early i breathe to take in
A Mouthful of O2 
That's never misplaced when
I need it, I believe it, Then it Is so true
I see it & treat it Like it's my go to
If we perceive we beat it 
Whatever we go through

I Know you May struggle A little with fear
What if I told you I know you
Will make it through here
Maybe a tear or two
Will fall to the ground
But I'm honest when I promise
That I'll be around

To hold you In cold dew
& When it is sunny
I love you when rich 
Or when there's no money
Life is so funny, when we dig this ditch
Our perception Is to question
When we don't switch 

The messes Into lessons
It's really a Cinch
Small steps not tall steps
So move every inch
Life is a dream If we seem 
To never get pinched
Like what you see then be
Thankful for this
I will forever be grateful I Live.

California Girl

She was a California girl
With autumn hair without a care
Her body was Goddess, erotic & honest
An hourglass as the hours pass
Red wine to dine over showered laughs
The softest touch but not too much
The thought of us was obvious
She mentioned us as it left a hush
She was an artist of energy 
With a gentle brush
There's no end to us
Was the message sent to us
In the night we ever so lightly
Touch the lips of one another
While our hands so tightly 
Felt love from the other
Together we felt the hover
As we laid under the cover
Forever cherishing that feeling brought
Always remembering the pedals 
Of the Forget Me Nots

Twisted Toungue

Tonight I write To see If I can pen this
Like taking metal with my mind
Seeing if I can bend this
A Bee can See Only what A Bee Perceives
So We Conceive Only Our Wants & Needs
Yet hauntingly Its taunting me
The Wants I need
Wants to flaunt with greed
If I stomp a Pea Will it mind my Ques
If I not Succeed Then Will i Loose
Refuse To choose
A will Thats Free,
Is that my choice my voice
To be me
The skills it needs, is not a pill that reads
Side effects you might regret
When you feel the bleed
They kill the ill, just to make a deal
In turn to seal their days
Evil in their ways
To learn by mistake
Not concern for pearly gates
Why would you choose to loose
An early unworthy Fate

Life: the Illusion

Is all this Allusion
Simply an Illusion
Confusion becomes Arcane
Machination simulation
Overplayed Arcade
Compiled of piles
Underlayed charades 
All awhile a smile
From delayed Cliches
Versatile Beguile
Endures soft Laughter
Ensured another Chapter
The Lure is Pure
Unsure
Of what comes After
Life of Demure
Better than Life of Immure
Intertwining for the Finding
Of the Ultimate Cure
