Premium MemberI told you

that love really hurts
your words tear at my heart
ripping it in half


Premium MemberYOU, LOVE, AND GOD'S LIBERATING SCAR

YOU, LOVE, AND GOD'S LIBERATING SCAR 

Ever remember,
You’re the child of God’s grace:
The devil’s desire:-

Satan craves God’s goods:
Can’t steal, he seeks to adopt
All confused navels:-

Navels can’t erase
The scars of their beginnings:
Heaven can’t be hell:-

Hate can’t adopt love:
So, slap Satan in his face,
And walk away free.

You are God’s glory;
A liberated navel:
A keloid of love:-

Premium Memberwill I win or lose?

my love is hiding
it peeks from around corners
watching every move

running from my heart
it's a game of cat and mouse
will I win? or lose?

Premium Memberlooking for love

I'm looking for love,
but always in wrong places
never a good thing!

Premium MemberWHY WE'RE STILL HERE

WHY WE’RE STILL HERE 

We are God’s workers;
Laborers of divine love:
We’re His faith builders:-


Premium Membergolden touch

hands soft like cotton
you touch my cheek to kiss me
instantly love struck

Premium Membermerciless tease

(a series of Senryus)

Oh merciless tease,
heaven’s greatest injustice 
must be temptation

There is no sense in
in the sensual and no real
care in the carnal

They’d begun the rites,
delights and wrongs of such love 
an unworthy two

Anointed and sworn 
by covenants to faithful 
others as they were

Was a single kiss 
what set the violently 
borne fire of thirst? 

Which, carried by the 
winds of want, brought misfortune 
and misadventure

There followed a swift 
contract to sin that enriched
impractical love

Their delightful and
perfect lowliness of mind
banished dull conceits

And then afterwards,
a bookful of non-binding
promises of love
.

A song for this
the feeling by Steve Lacy [E]

Premium Memberwith you

you make me smile
my heart overjoyed
when I'm with you

Premium Memberlike honey

love is like honey
smooth, caressing, but sticky
a beautiful mess

Premium Memberbrush strokes

not just paint on wall
you've painted my heart with
perfect brush strokes

Premium Memberwhen in doubt

my heart is hurting
I don't want to feel this way
when in doubt get out

Premium MemberI'm so into you

you are my rock
the one I fell in love with
till the end of time

Premium Membertogether

I can only dream
of the day we're together
love and honey mixed

Premium Memberover

(a simple breakup, in Senryus)

I said I’m “fine,” which
was absolutely true - just 
not where he’s concerned.

Our story ended,
a cancelled series without 
lesson or climax.

I was proud of us,
we ended things maturely, 
no one told the truth

He wasn’t in my 
life but somehow he never 
left my contact list
.

A song for this:
Only the lonely by the Motels

Premium Memberthings that matter

small stuff don't matter
it's the bigger things that do 
love and family
