Sex Hex
by Michael R. Burch

Love’s full of cute paradoxes
(and highly acute poxes).

Love
by Michael R. Burch

Love is either wholly folly,
or fully holy.

We ask
How would it be like to cheat with your soulmate
My love,we have passed with flying colors defeating all odds yet we still stand now in sync more than ever Completing each others sentences is a coin tossed long time...Read More

I pore over words as I would your body

Slowly, taking it all in and reading between the lines

And absorbing, every little facet and detail

Getting the very most out of thing, that I see

Laid out there right before me

Appreciating the touch...Read More

Between the lines,  is where you want to read, 
that’s where people hurt and smile, laugh and bleed
between the lines they’ll always tell you what they really want and  need,
where words aren't just something to fill the page,...Read More

You've all heard the phrase “field of vision”
What we see with the naked eye
But some things that are beyond our vision
Have effects on both you and I

Must always try reading between the lines
Where real meanings often hide
People are not always...Read More

"The Illusion"

Laying here so sad and so lost, 
 Feel like I'm in a battle against myself and theres always a cost. 
 Delusions fill my head sometimes I'm better not here, 
 Endless nights of crying all these lonely...Read More

We've looked at love
enjoyed it all
from both sides now
yours and mine
different love, but still somehow
in our minds
if love's illusion we recall
we'll be fine

do we really know, my love,
fairy tales are
anything at all?
forever


It may seem we're acting strange
fading colors dance with...Read More

All these things that happened..playing ever so clear in my head.
They are my secrets to take with me, until the day that I am dead.

Too scared to tell anyone, suffocating me so I can't breathe.
Alone I face the darkness, bottling...Read More

We are not together but do everything as if we are together without a title and 

I’m not with you but you wish I was

She wants commitment so she gave up her commitment

And he wants freedom so he stays free...Read More

When you’re dreaming of make believe
You better read between the lines to see
It’s the same old story that's both sad and cheap
Of things that almost were
And yet never meant to be
.
You convinced yourself
You could be someone else
If that's what he...Read More

There's a little girl named Ivy
Who thinks in metaphors 
She plays by herself 
The universe to explore
Shes beginning to comprehend
That her gifts are so much more
Than her neighbors down a floor
The leaves of her trees 
They glisten and they dance
When...Read More

My wants and my desires
Medea to be heard
If only Medusa to afro the snake

In my kitchen no arsenic
but do not step on my toes
as my fangs will deliver the venom

Having everything ..  ..having it all.... you lose track ....you need to look back......before you fall ..before you lose it all.......and have nothing ......nothing left at all
Humility and Humbility....common sense and sensibility......makes the person you are.....considering the outside ......Read More

a smile in the darkness draws me near
pull me in and we can disappear  

reading between the lines
on train tracks
in teeth
the way we smile

Carved out memories to remember your eyes
and the feel of how things might have been


lost between...Read More

In just six weeks, I had three unnerving big scares
My angels must be surely working overtime upstairs
I thank you sincerely for keeping me unharmed
But I'm nervous and becoming increasingly alarmed

Is my time getting close God, are you giving me warning...Read More

Your footsteps might disappear after a while 
Your voice might go silent at times 
Your needs will not be visible to others 
Unless you voice them 

Not everyone has the gift of reading between the lines 
Not everyone listens to...Read More

            Alphabets Voyage 

Just last week the alphabets walked off into the sky
Taking Saudi Arabia and China’s colloquial scripts along 
With pages, other fibrous substances in disguise, into the...Read More

Reading Between the Lines by Kenny Davis

I often read between the lines
Which you might find strange
Rearrange the words in my head
To see if the meaning will change

The words that are said
The expressions, too hard to ignore
My heart wishes to take...Read More

The Bermuda Triangle.
Are we talking shorts
Or waxing?

Some are masters of deceit.
Should they have been born
Chameleons?

Many shoes, but all one size.
Leaving us with what,
Hobson’s choice?

To make pizza or pancakes.
Tough decision, or
A toss-up?

The road is winding and steep.
Will you walk with me
All...Read More

Our debt’s sixteen trillion going on seventeen
Obama it’s time to think

Better beware coz your new health care
Is putting us on the brink

Our debt’s sixteen trillion going on seventeen
No reading between the lines

We are indebted and surely headed
For a dreadful decline

Totally...Read More

Do we always know what someone means
Is it obvious or do we wonder
Are we sometimes left just a little puzzled
Or does it finally strike like thunder

Evasive tactics can be quite intentional
Not wanting to divulge private info
Like telling someone of a...Read More

What we see with the naked eye
But some things that are beyond our vision
Have effects on both you and I
