Mixed emotions
They were made perfect for each other
Like the sun and the moon
She asked for the impossible: love me forever
Love me when all desire is gone
He asked the same impossible question: love me forever
They both promised, but yet they knew
They couldn't give each other the love they both needed
Stolen glances and wanted romances
I couldn't love him
And he could love me
They both knew deep down
This was a part
Of their impossible love
When people ask the impossible question,
What do they expect?
“If aliens are real, then what do they look like?”
Something you have never seen.
Something you could not imagine.
Something you would never forget.

When did you first fall in love with me...
anticipation of miracle and wet wonder in her immaculate smile,
A blizzard of rose petals and blood riddles swirl within my heart
it seemed like an impossible question to answer,
it was so long ago, yet it feels like it was just a moment ago,
when did beauty become a purpose...
when did passion first pulse on virgin lips...
When I first felt...
the impassioned poetry of your womanhood,
the strike of your passion wrath upon my manhood,
when I first saw...
how your eyes of lioness scorch blazed a grin of gusto on my face,
how you crowned me King of Virility with your ultra sweet gasps,
when I realized...
that my mouth of nocturnal nurture could be your medicine,
that the landscape of my love would be the sanctuary of your dreamscape,
I asked her with a happy urge,
When did you first fall in love with me...
with a dance of wilderness on her voice she answered,
When your poetry gave me faith in my heart...

I wonder as I sit here looking at the stars
How we can be so close, and yet, so far apart
An impossible question but still I tend to ask
I don't know where life's going, it's moving way to fast
So often do we think about the way our life should be
And still I cannot figure out life's little mystery
It's like a puzzle without a piece to fit into the last
Like tomorrow's feelings are always based on feelings from our past
I feel like people tend to take for granted what they're given
But if you have a heart to love, there's hearts to be forgiven
Take time alone to think about your life and where it's going
Or else you'll go through like confused,
wondering but never knowing
