I still write poems in my head
On paper, maybe not
But if you ever wanted one
I'd write it on the spot
See I just have to think of you
To get the words to flow
Then watch them turn to poetry
It's easy when you know
We had both worked out
we deserve the blame,
for love that diminished
carving trees of our names.
Our little bark masterpieces
Little deep sculptures fading,
& our love keep perishing
like the strongest of droughts.
Once the candle wax melts
and pastry starts to crumble
and worn out is the belt
& the thunder loses its rumble,
white daisies are all trampled
when Life's no longer a jungle.
The light of your beautiful eyes
extinguishes as the candle dies,
and pain I always held inside
will suddenly burn and come alive.
We wish upon searing stars
we'll meet again, spark up the sky
Have the greatest sex, Cuban cigars
Wash to shore greatest of perfect days.
And all I touch will sear and fry
My Angel, I too now have died.
Your arms make me feel safe from that first glance.
Your soul, my safe haven.
You had me at hello.
Those true colors peeking through your walls: strength, love, and devotion.
You are my yin to my yang.
You ground me.
We’ve pushed through, standing our ground through sickness and trial, yet we still hold the line for our family we’ve created.
As years pass and looks fade, I will still see the soul I fell in love with from day one.
Happy Anniversary, my love.
Sexual healing
she said is sex o clock baby
This words of her always turn me cos
She is beautiful with awesome curves
Her pretty face make me happy
Her smile is like a sun set
She makes me feel love again and again
What a beautiful soul
She is a gift to me
I swear I can always testify to this testimony
She loves me beyond words
So every time we get down together sexually
We feel each other beyond words
We fly above the moon together
We touch the stars more better than a jet could ever will
Our intimacy is more better stronger each time we make love
What a beautiful woman
She is a gift to my soul
Each down we get down together
She moans so happily
Always she ask me never to stop
Always she want more of me
As much as I needs more of her
I tell you no lie
Life is beautiful with an awesome
Sexual healing
Your words can sting, so can mine.
Yet, our hearts still stay intertwined.
Love's not simple Nor complex.
Yet through the rose remains briar
Capable of many things such as fire.
Its thorns cut and tare
Sending tension through the air.
Though through even the darkest of nights
After one too many fights,
your divine,
still manages to shine.
Just a singular drop in whole of Neptune,
A precise pick of the drip giving fortune.
A voice so bitter, yet so sweet, I'm still able
To call out your name in the unstable.
In the end your voice speaks
A soft call that sends me to devines peak.
Though the tares may bleed,
Your hand still proceeds
To fix the damage with great caution.
A smile ending all the commotion
For you my dear I wait
Muttering the words I love you yet to await.
Loves hand is outstretched, asking me to walk and talk, making me feel so near.
Love wants me to go and never leave, but love sometimes has to grow and weave.
Love is like a thread and grows and grows till it reaches the stars above, then it shines for all to see, making the light that only true love can make.
Love, your hand is so strong, and I feel you hold mine with all your divine love.
Always and forever, my love, our shining love is bright like a light guiding us through all of this life.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
Happy Heavenly Father’s Day, Dad … I miss you like a ghost misses heartbeats … all my love.
~
midst all of heaven's blessings
my treasures, known and had
not one can best the miracle
that fate made you ... my dad.

Let me express my complete emotions
Give all to him who's vast as earth's oceans
He’s handsome and slightly tall
He’s my up lifter whenever I fall
If I can’t spend my days with him on earth
Tell me what’s my life really worth
I’m willing to show him the worst of me
That’s how an undying love should be
He’s my soul-mate for eternity
Together we can embrace this journey of life
With endless sincerity
I love him from the bottom of my heart
And no-one can break us apart
This love of ours will never perish
He’s the man I’ll always cherish
In this world, I may never find
Another man like him who’s one of a kind
I want to give him my all
But words are not enough to say
I rather show him how I feel in every way.
Adam’s Ale
—the old name for water, the first drink, the simplest thirst.
Bougainvillea, thorn-armored bloom,
plankton drifting—algae, crustaceans—
a hidden kingdom in an inland basin,
non-oceanic water breathing its own tides.
I splash my face in the reservoir,
Adam’s ale cooling my skin,
while light bends and scatters—
I am refracted,
a prism made of flesh and ache,
splintering into the many rays of sun.
I sit beneath an arboreal sky,
ceiling woven from foliage and verdure,
cathedral of green where shadows
keep their soft liturgy.
Saudade gnaws the marrow of light,
and my sunlit heart caves inward.
I hunger for your presence,
for the echo of your breath in the leaves.
If the day could linger—
just one more turn of the earth—
I would not ask for forever.
But even plankton drift toward dark,
their glow extinguished in the basin’s hush;
so too my heart, without your light.
Hello Indiana
You beautiful like Ariana
Do you smoke Marijuana
It feels nice like you in Havana
Could we be like Dolce and Gabbana
Imma turn you into a star like Tatiana
Take you for a trip in the Savannah
I go make your dreams come true like Hallelujah

I can feel my pulse in my fingertips,
like my hands are trying to escape.
Do I lean in? Do I lean back?
Please don’t let me stumble over my own feet.
My heart is doing that ridiculous thumping thing.
Why does it feel like the world is waiting?
Should I say something? Something clever?
No, just stay quiet, it’s fine.
Just breathe…oops, too noticeable.
Why is everything suddenly so tricky?
Your eyes are so close, almost too near.
Okay, maybe not, maybe it’s the perfect distance.
What if my lips are awkward? What if I taste strange?
I’m panicking, yes, in every corner of me.
I tell myself stop, act normal… but my pulse gives me away.
“Hey… is everything okay? You seem nervous.”
I nod too fast, my thoughts scattering everywhere.
I want to laugh, I want to crawl under a rock.
I feel like I might float or fall all at once.
My eyes dart everywhere, but you’re right here, holding my hand.
And then it happens, gentle, hesitant, soft.
Our lips meet, and my stomach flutters.
It’s awkward, it’s funny, it’s perfect in its messiness.
I think, maybe this is how first kisses are meant to feel.
And I secretly hope it never ends.
All the things I said to you
Were from the deepest depths inside
Count each and every one as true
From all but you those things I hide
And should it be my life spans long
Your cozy cabin in the wood
Is where I'll wait to hear your song
Until I close my eyes for good
Just because I don't post
Doesn't mean I don't write
Just because I don't publish
I still have dreams at night
Just because it's unspoken
Doesn't mean that I don't
Just because you won't say it
Doesn't mean that I won't
Just because I may want to
Doesn't mean that I would
Just because I still love you
Doesn't mean that I should
The things that we want
Sometimes we don't get
Just because we don't see
The plan fully yet
There's no harm in keeping
The flame still alive
In case I do make it
To one hundred and five
Years have passed since i lost you
It seemed like forever that I cried
It still hurts when i think about you
And how your love for me died
I should have seen It coming
With all the wrong that I done
I took your love for granted
Showing you I wasn't the one
I can still see you drive away
As clear today as back then
And each time it never fails
It breaks my heart once again
I believe I would love you better
If I could love you once more
But i know i would again fail
Leaving your heart broken and sore
Years are dragging by, without having you here;
Every fiber of my being wants you holding me near.
Through time and space, eternity, our ties shall never sever;
In these words you know my truth, "I love you Always and Forever."
