Seasonal Love

Unexpectedly she falls into my arms 
She is cool, soft and pale
Her body surrounds me like a blanket of comfort
Surely she has been missed, 
For it has been months since our last embrace
Her full weight bears down upon me
I do not waver, for she is light and delicate
Entwined we sleep though the long, dark nights of winter
 Her face sparkles in the moonlight; she is beautiful in my arms
Just as thoughts of her impending departure fade
Spring arrives and the sun reminds me she must leave 
As she slips slowly from my grasp
I weep quietly on the shoulders of others 
I long to chase after her and beg her to stay 
But alas my wish will never come true 
For I am a tree
And she, the snow

What Went Wrong

It’s too late to fix
What went wrong,
Too late to explain
We waited too long,
Now two distant strangers 
Who didn’t recognize the dangers,
Of speechless nights
And avoided fights,
Now surreal dreams
And silent screams
Fill my mind

Magazine Poetry

This deep and endless reflection of me with you
Has been here all along.
A piece of you will forever be with me
Who will never be the same.
Look past a tough day without feeling,
Have strength.
Your beautiful soul knows what it takes
To forgive
 And just let your feelings for me move
To a secret place.
Imagine intense unique expression 
From original passion.
If I fall and break down will you understand 
How it feels to be me?
Still I heal and this power fills me.
I ask:
 Are you made to choose your one perfect love?

One Night

WANTING
Touching, Kissing
Holding, Pleasing
Across the room two eyes 
CONNECT
Waiting, Needing
Loving, Missing
Two teen hearts beat faster
CONTACT
Heating, Sweating
Breathing, Screaming
One body for just tonight
FORGET

Unnoticed

I can’t take this sickness inside of me.
Mouths with tongues full of bitterness tell lies.
I don’t want you here but you hold my key.
Only aware enough to hear my cries
Regarding the disease that’s in us all.
No medication strong enough I find
To pick me up every time that I fall.
Is this real or is it all in my mind?
Is it your fault or am I to blame?
Whatever your intentions are don’t even start.
Do I forget you crying out her name?
Without asking you stole and broke my heart.
Tears with the blade finally hit the ground.
Memories die with the girl never found.
