A wistful glance upon her face,
Belies the smile I need to trace;
For love needs not cruel rejection,
Instead it longs for sweet perfection.
Reaching out to touch tomorrow,
Leaving all that causes sorrow;
Looking forward with such yearning,
Finding joy at your returning.
Let me taste your scent once more,
Bring back the dream we had before;
Have no fear and fear no scorn.
For buds of love will soon be born.
On your cheek the morning blush,
On your brow the fevered flush;
Like berries sitting in the cream,
You light my soul and fill my dream.
Let me quench your thirsty lips,
And taste the juice of honeyed drips;
To caress the languid eyes that sleep,
And join with mine that need to weep.
I need reach out to touch a star,
To know for sure just where you are;
For body language is understood,
Giving and forgiving all it should.
When fingers knit a lovers knot,
And find a stitch that they forgot;
Then all things that transpire,
Will feed the flame that lights the fire.
Do not shed any tears
I am with you still when I am not
I know I have loved a man who has strong heart
When my memories are there we can never be apart
Open your hands I will hold them
You just have to feel my touch that’s all
Doesn’t matter if I am not there
I am still with you for your each new start
Don’t keep any fear of falling alone
May be you will find yourself all on your own
But just close your eyes and feel me beside you
This much is enough and your fear will be gone
I am also trying to do the same
But when I cry I pour the rain
Let me take these stars and moon for you
Because I know that one day we will meet again
Even when I have lost my breath
But still I heat my heart pounding
Because I know that my soul is in you now
So as long you are there I will be alive
So have no fear of falling alone
Don’t cry, soon this time will be gone
When I found you the world stopped
I fell upon my knees
I had to take a deeper look
I was lost in your beauty
My soul was enlightened by the rare treasure
I was full no longer empty
Joy filled what use to be so dark and the lightness over came the shadows
No longer did I fear the morning after
I was awaken in spirit
I found my muse and poetic love and laughter
You inspired me to create
The man that showed me life and no longer was I to I have to fear another day
I had you by my side
To be my man and lover for a lifetime
I never had a love like you
So true and blessed I have love only for you.
The Reins of Reluctance
Stashed somewhere in the shadows
Of true love and pure romance
He hides his heart and hungers
For the strength to take a chance
He hopes hard for a reason
Tries to find the circumstance
So he can finally tell her
How she has him in a trance
But fear of her rejection
Always hinders his advance
So she only sees him smiling
As he settles for a glance
Which fuels his desire
With the emotional finance
That will keep the battle going
With inhibitions and I can’ts
If fear is all there is to fear
And the virtue is patience
He will always bear the burden
Of his reins of reluctance

Panic Attack
By Rick Rucker
Anxiety, and a Panic Attack,
A nightmare, I’d lost you, and couldn’t get you back!
I awakened in a sweat, saw my Heart beating,
Saw the last of my Life fleeting!
I think I might have even yelled,
A hint of your perfume I smelled.
Now, That I’m awake,
Thinking clearly, a breath I take.
My heartbeat, back to normal pace,
As I dream of your lovely face.
What causes such ugly dreams,
Full of tension, sometimes screams?
Probably fear of impending loss,
A possibility over which we gloss
When we are awake,
At night, a Fear we cannot shake!
To reassure myself that I’m not alone,
I almost dial you on the phone!
In the morning, just after three,
Oh, how mad you would be!
I hope You never see,
How much your loss would mean to me!
I no longer fear Her
I no longer fear Her
As I no longer see Her
She is resigned to my Past
A love I knew could not Last
And as time erases that Love Past
I know my Heart soon will Beat Fast
To a Love Unsurpassed
It's not like Sociology 101
It's like let's learn about "The One"
As I meander down the hall I stop and stare
Man, he's looking fine, just like a black mare
Oh, concentrate now, where is this class?
Why am I here, to me love has been such an albatross
Don't mean to be crass as I think about the subject
But I want that true love, i wonder, as I project
Why a classroom when I've learned from hard knocks?
Oh, there the stallion runs as the clock tic tocks
Im there! I say to myself, and who the professor?
Teach ourselves to love our hearts no lesser
As our hearts roam free in the classroom of LOVE
My heartaches grow dimmer; we came from GOD above
Love fills the room as our intellects ponder
No, grasses are never green over yonder
When you're loving... simply love
Psychic now, as I see white balloons and doves
Hallucination now or infatuation
Creation or divine situation
We exit now
We take a bow!
To fear loves reality
is to fear one's higher duality!
You are only in this place I call never-Never Land,
I love you so much though.
You’re everything I dream of having,
Come down to the world.
My protective, blonde-haired, beautiful eyed prince,
Come down and save your princess.
In Never-Never Land you hold me tight.
I have no pain nor fear the night.
I hold no fear for the following day,
And know that you are there for me.
Come out of Never-Never Land and,
Be with me forever.
I don’t want to have to close my eyelids,
Just to see my love.
I hear you in the night time.
You’re always calling my name.
At times you scream for help,
But I can’t find you anywhere.
I awake in terror,
Knowing you’re in suffering.
I want to be able to save you,
But you’re only a figment of my imagination.
i see fear in your eyes
i hear fear in your cries
your ever so faint call
for help let you fall
you fall behind too much
i have never seen so much
pain and fear in such
a strong brave person
your scared your hurtin'
i have to tell the person i adore
that i can not love you no more
scared? i am as well
i never knew how far you fell
hoping to go back to what was
so glorious so beautiful because
i love you and always will
your fear is my fear its how we feel
it is sure it will be hard
for us to for sure part
if you have trouble catching your breath
as i do let go everything til nothing is left
it is the easiest way to say goodbye
know one knows the fear i saw in your eye
I associate being complete with falling in love.
Does that mean that as a child I didn't get
enough hugs?
I fear loneliness like elephants fear mice
and I go from person to person
trying to get it right.
But something is missing
something has been missing for a while
and I don't want to appear weak
I just want some one to make me smile
Is it so bad that I associate love with being whole
I know what your supposed to be told
that you must love thyself before anyone else will
but I just want someone to hold
I want someone not to go
when I need them the most.
