Dream

When I dream I can love you without limits

Torment

Torment. 
Beautiful and precious affliction. 
Words untold. Better left unspoken. Cant speak. 
I've imprisoned myself in you. Hand holds my heart. 
Fingers cage it like bars. 
No longer mere thoughts or just fantasy. 
Forbidden love unrequited. 
Ashamed to be a cliché. 
The cravings of my heart must transform and grow beyond. Let my hunger go. My time has come and gone. 
Choices made and set in stone. 
Must be satisfied to watch from the outside. 
I must. I can do this.
I am strong

Confined

Stand behind the line. 
Read the sign. 
No touching allowed.

Buried

I'm buried.
Buried under the layers of myself
of who I am... who I want to be and who I'm meant to be.
Smothered under the gravity of expectations...
of the world, my family, myself, even God.
I feel the weight of the trust that others have placed in me.
On me 
Pulled thinly in a thousand directions. 
I'm confined, imprisoned by my choices.
Choices well considered by a younger more idealistic version of myself.
One I still wish to be? No!
Am I regretful? No! 
Do I lament my youthful decisions? I do not. 
Am I in turmoil? Absolutely
Have I discovered there is room in my heart that was not there before? Undoubtedly
I've always known my heart was vast.  Accepted that I would never be limited to love only a few. Rejoiced in it even.
But never in my imaginings did I consider that there was a particular compartment being kept solely for you.
I did not know that I could so willingly split myself in two. 
That I would compromise so vastly all that I've known for a love forbidden to me. 
Out of reach. Out of bounds 
Am I blameworthy? Guilty? 
Yes...no...yes...no... yes
I don't know anymore...lines are so blurred.
Of this I am certain...
I'm in deep
Profoundly, thoroughly and deeply
Buried

Addict

I'm an addict.  And you're my drug of preference 
I’m completely hooked on you
I wake, you're the first thing I think of 
and you're my last thought at night
Just can’t get you out of my head
You have permeated me
My body physically craves you
I want you near me
On me
I want you inside me
All over me
I want you to saturate my every fragment
Pervade my very particles
My craving, so compelling 
it makes my stomach churn, 
my heart race, my mind constantly wander
My thoughts are so entirely consumed by you.
My narcotic
When I'm with you I get a little taste... 
just enough to make my mouth water, 
my lips tingle and my skin crawl 
with the need for more
When you're gone the withdrawals begin 
and l miss you fiercely 
Every part of me objects to your absence 
My very fibre protests at the lack of you 
I seek you compulsively
Urgent mania so completely fixated
Simply can't get enough of you
I need a fix
Can never get the full high
I'm rendered powerless
Weakened by my need
It's stronger than the rest of me
Too deficient to resist
My hunger is endless
Totally hooked and I want more
You're my poison and my remedy

She Waits

And she sits by the phone, 
waiting to be called.... 
the girl with her 
heart on her sleeve. 
She waits and she waits, 
till despair does befall..... 
so concludes it is time she should leave...

Love Destructive

What the F***!

I'm an idiot, such a fool 
Head spinning in a whirlpool
Like 30 years out of school 
And I'm breaking all my rules
So I can sit and dream and drool
Pretend I'm young and cool

With open hearts we duel
Build love precious as a jewel
Lust dangerous I openly fuel
Selfish games are oh so cruel
Acting like a total tool
Hold on stubborn like a mule

What the F***!

What am I doing?
Mistakes I am accruing 
Venom I am spewing
On anger I am chewing 
Not clearly am I viewing
Disaster! It is brewing

Young love I am pursuing 
Mercilessly wooing
Desire needs subduing
Lives that I am skewing
My head is what I'm screwing
Completely my undoing 

What the F***!

My Ache

I ache... 
All of me. Aches. 
My heart thunders in my chest. Barely contained by its cage of bone. 
I can hear it in my ears. Thumping. 
Pumping blood to my brain, that aches, 
with the thoughts pounding to escape from their ossein shell. 
Bruising me. 
Head heavy with dreams, with yearnings, a hunger I can not break. 
It aches. 
Tears liberate themselves from the chaos of my head. 
They flee my eyes to caress my cheeks. 
Freely brush over my skin leaving paths down my throat to my chest. 
Nothing can stop their intention. 
To escape. 
The ache. 
It's still there, in my body, in my soul, in the very fibres of my form. 
An ache so strong I can touch it. 
I can brush it with my fingertips. 
Feel it on my body its so solid and so real. 
It's all over me. It's all through me. It consumes me. 
My ache...

Inevitable

I'm waiting for the sound of my silently breaking heart.

Fleeting

.
..
...
....
limitless love endless hate 
well conceived thoughts 
words to my ears 
words to my mind berate 
my heart my brain 
limitless? without limits 
limited
infinite immeasurable deluded impossibilities 
you have my body you have my hours 
you give me frowns amid fragrant flowers 
wilting wilted wilt 
want more more more pressure 
make demands 
I give less
try to find time to know what I'm feeling 
the shadows from my walls 
stretched so long send my mind reeling 
so high so wide so deep 
buried
bottled 
bottled up myself so distant are my desires 
elusive like sands through your fingers 
or water in the cup of your hands
my self 
myself so impalpable
scared to dissect 
afraid of what I'll find shaken by the secrets 
closed off in my mind
compartments for safety 
locked doors without handles
never knowing myself a mystery unsolved
hear no evil see no evil 
does not make one absolved
finding excuses I'm tired I'm wired 
it's too late I'm too old
endless? without end
ended
....
...
