Say it when she makes a mistake,
say it when she’s stunning;
Say it with an inside joke,
say it when she’s crying;
Say it when she’s in your arms,
say it with your eyes;
Say it when you have no words,
and more when she won’t stop talking;
Don’t say it just for Hallmark,
say it with a special night;
Any time you feel it,
say it just because....

- Recognition
Up in the night sky,
A face, with two gleaming eyes…
Cold like a glacier.

- Laughing
It’s our inside joke,
Tiny bubbles in the pool…
Fresh rain on the ground.

- Languid
Faces in moon light,
Satellites cross the night sky…
It’s warm, go swimming.

- Again
Like a falling star,
Gleaming tear-drops on my face…
Dew in the morning.

...(Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall)...

when i run my fingertips up your arms to your shoulders
and draw your head down to mine
when my heart quickens at your bare back as you cross the room
when I kiss you, just a little bit to tease you on
when your eyes sparkle with an inside joke
when your dressed up and hold up two ties: which one?
when you hold me close
just the way you can
strong arms around me strong heart beats to match mine
how I love you
oh you'll never know...

My friends tried to make me stop,
I yelled that I was fine.
I turned around and looked at the ten thousand foot drop...
Looked at my hands, in which yours would so perfectly entwine...

They could, but they never will...
Because the one chance I was given all messed up.
My life went up, then straight downhill...
Whenevever someone said “do you like him?” I said “Yup”

And all the happiness from my life is gone...

Only a lame inside joke remains......

today is just another day
to look back, to cringe
to remember light and dark times
to hear the cries of the forsaken 
to see the whispers of the desperate
to know the chill of winters bite
to feel the sun's death give us life
to touch another's heart, selflessly
to reach out into the chaotic uncertain
to fumble the perfect plan
to catch the inside joke so clever
to be vulnerable, ready for what's next
without RESERVATIONS....assumptions....guile.......

today is just another day..... live it...
