My Heart Has Always Known

Familiar stranger
Speaking echoes
Of memories
I cannot recall
Singing sweetly to my soul
And in a dream I knew you
I remember it now
Your touch lingers
A ghostly caress
Leaving me breathless
The soft penetration of your gaze
Reflecting in my eyes
The heat of your flesh
As it burns in my hands
And radiates from my lips
Your voice is the sound
Of a distant song
My heart has always known

Restless

Beneath the veil of night
Restless limbs lay tangled
Amongst her linens and her doubts
Sun kissed skin, remembering him
Her fingers gently trace
The faintest whisper of his touch
Soft upon her breath, his name
She must learn to say goodbye

Becoming One

Softly Sweetly Caressing my soul Silently, I shudder I am blinded By the sun in my eyes As I look at you And what is it I see An old friend A stranger Funny, I can't recall And, oh, that smile Facetious Knowing So gentle I think that you May just be A part of me Soft lips So tender against my skin And we are love Making love In love Bodies connecting Belonging Becoming one

Bruises, Not Scars

Gone are my childish beliefs in love
That foolish faith in magic
Dreams of devotion have faded
And clarity seems to be all that's left
You're image has shifted so violently in my eyes
The man suddenly revealed in true form
I know not that those lips hold the sharpest tongue
Ready and waiting to mortally wound me with words
Those eyes would kill me if they could
Cut me down where I stand with only a glare
And those arms that once held me close
Extend to hands that forget I am soft and sweet
Fists of rage leaving me black and blue on the floor
But I'm the one to blame, not you
I couldn't see that you have been you all along
So now I have no more tears to shed 
You have stolen too many and left me nearly dry

As He Sleeps

I was a fool
To believe that you loved me
To fall for that cosmic joke
As if I didn't know the punch line
Now as I watch you sleep
Your face has changed
This moment gives birth
To doubt and despair
And I search your face
To find a glimpse
Of the source of my devotion
But no sign of love remains
Clarity offers revelation
I am alone after all
Oddly comforting, though
The honesty of truth

Skin So Soft

Beautiful boy
Lost
Inside this man
Skin so soft
It contradicts
His fists

Shadow

Last night
In your 
Arms
Touching your 
Tongue
To mine
I forgot
That this 
Love
Lingering
On my 
Lips
Was something
To fear
And I 
Wonder
Would you
Suffer
If I 
Leave
As for 
Me
I would 
Fall
In your
Shadow
I believe

Just So You Know

despite the rain outside
despite my pain inside
despite the madness we live in
despite so much hate and sin
despite the confusion
despite the solution
despite things said and done
despite battles lost and won
despite all my wasted breath
despite how i feel
despite what is real
despite where i am
or where i'm going to
not a moment goes by
that i'm not thinking of you

Daddy

I Began
Upon The Breast
Of A Broken Doll
Kept Safely Then
In The Embrace
Of The Only Man
I Would Forever
Crave
His Presence
A Birthday Gift
I Would Never
Receive Again
Gone
Long Before
My Tiny Legs
Could Carry Me
After Him
Or My Voice Could
Call Him Back
