Slept With Dreams

Slept with dreams 
To awake with reality
Quickens the heart within


To be in dream again
Being teased with skin
Caressing soft petal lips, drench in dew 
Touching softly
Wetness desires


With tender whisper winds, blowing softly against your skin
With goosebumps tingle, lay in dream
Let finger tips trace your silhouette -
with tips on your lips, parting for a kiss
 

Dream to be swept up, in love
Feel the temptations, flame below 
Let thoughts caress the mind losing control 
Feeding your ecstasy  


Slept with dreams once more

Silhouette

Reached out to hold the silhouette who posed in the elegance of beauty that is hidden within darkness that spills out with blackness of sparkle stars near to shine


My soul, stood near, dazzled by what my old eyes sees, breathless feelings to be within her silhouette, swept inside the darkness. The rush of love that my imagination conjured up filled my old head. My feet became alive as my frail body began to dance around the beautiful silhouette that still and dark with radiant sparkles, stars that felt as though they were taking me away


As soon as she appeared her silhouette disappeared from under the cobblestone bridge from which I sat below in awe of the love I felt from the silhouette covered in darkness with sparkle stars near to shine


To shine my path through her love

R   u   n   from my nightmares, hiding inside me
Dissect my thoughts 
Hold me to them
Don’t let me crawl out from under them

S   t   r  a  p  me down 
Before I  r u n  away
Roll me down 
To the crazy floor
Toss me out and run away
Don’t look back
I’m acting crazy

Someday Dressed In White

So much in my head
My Words can’t express
I’m lost between my head and you
You make things in my head seem so true

Walking the streets with you
Toasting our glass of water making loving looks 
Outside under a white tent

Maybe someday 
It’ll be a toast with champagne on our wedding day
You dressed in white looking unbelievably fine
Under that white tent

Flowers fill the room 
You stand out the most beautiful flower in the room
My heart flutters looking at you 
Oh ya

Longing for you

A Night of Temptation

The night was lit
With flames adorned 
Amongst the moon and stars
Her beauty grace my eyes
My temptations for her, filled me
The lips so tender to kiss, with scent, so eager to please
The closeness devoured my innocence 
Her tongue laid dirty deeds, willfully pleasing
My pulse exploding 
Her dirty deeds of
Smoldering heat 
Her beauty, 
Lay beneath 
Breathless 
entanglement

Luckiest Man

It’s her heart
It’s her eyes twinkling at me
That makes me the luckiest man alive

She takes hold of my hand
She’s the joy of my life
Love her in every way 
Oh ya 
- love her

Oh my she’s my love
What she does to my heart
Taking hold 
Never letting go

That makes me the luckiest man alive

Real Truth

May he swing 


                     In his rope, 

                                        that he placed on America 


As America steeds away, as his horse sends him hanging in the wind
Let the rot of his stench send a message to all those Democracy will always prevail over fascism Your gop has no place in our country

Nonsense

The pickering of pickle pie Of pickle as pickled could be My liver to be exact Pickled to disbelief Of proportionately exorbitantly larger than it could be But what is it To be exactly like me In all fathoms of to be Inwardly moving through scale topple less trees Green In envy I see Far reaching I see Resting on top of my tree But what about pickles that echoes and bellows below All in time please I’m in need of my yellow phone To sanction the life out of those Those are to be known Unfortunately for those who can’t seem to follow the pickle by the sea I have nothing to give you but a tireless rant of nonsense So follow your foe or foe’s As I will stay here on top of my tree eating my pickle pie

Lifting Up

Like braille In the depth of darkness Feeling her way to my heart Like the light that I was searching for She pierced through that darkness Lifting me high to heaven

Army Man

The crushing sound bashing in my head
The boy I see, dreaming to be an army man
Only fears and tears of knowing that it can’t be
 My boy, wake up and see reality!

Only death, comes in a world of Putin and Xi. 
The hammer for war, is swinging full speed
Internally, the states are at war with their views of red and blue. 
Democracy vs the GOP
The radically racist, authoritarian views and belief under the hood of church 
Are at the core of tearing down our democracy 
The wolves in sheep clothing undermine our values of our way of life
Yet you follow them as sheep do 

My boy, wake up to see the real reality 
I do not want you to be an army man
