His Name Was Innocence

I had dreams, sometimes
About him
always about glass streams
I used to love his company
Or the promise of it,
In my dreams.
Then my eyelids spread apart
And they stroked blissful clouds
As he made me mumble and
Sigh through my words
And blow bubbles of nonsense into the dense air
While lying in his arms
On his chest
In his mother’s bed
Cradling my heart
Caressing my 
body
With his hand between my thighs
Rubbing, exploring, sinfully
Touching me
And the throat filling silence
And the sound of his mouth
And the expulsion of breath
And the symphony in his chest
And my love echoing through my body
With his hand between my thighs
And the electricity in my fingernails
And my limp, clenched, guilty, pleasure bond body
Anticipating
The exploration of his hand
Between my thighs
Before then
Before we were there, or I was there, or he was there
Holding me
Closer, 
His hand rhythmically
Slithering up my thigh
Allowing me to taste the darkened fruit of paradise
On his mother’s bed
(and my wonder if I was dreaming)
no
before then
I can only remember Innocence.

Do You Know My Abc's?

And it was there. Looking me in the eye, “I shall born you.” I was overcome with 
sadness.

Before I was born I died. I was one with everything. I was more alive then, then I 
am now.

Children seem so simple. Children seem so free. Why is life so hard. Maybe the 
simple one is me.

Deep cuts in my heart. A boy that I love with all of me. I might’ve been invisible 
because he always walked by.

Enough of this! I hate it all. I gathered myself and left my heart behind.

Falling down the tubes. Drifting though life. No friends, no family. I. Can’t. Breath.

Gaining momentum. Losing myself.

Hot under my skin. It’s getting tighter. Wanting to rip through it.

I, am, not, real.

Just between us. Just between us two. I used to be everything.

Killing gives life. I want to give my life to you.

Love exists only as water. My heart is dry.

Maybe I’m your dream. Maybe you are mine. Maybe neither of us carry weight. 
Maybe both of us have died.

No, you never gave me a drop.

O I cry. I cry for you. I cry I cry I cry I cry for you.

Plenty of times I wonder how long my sentence is.

Quiere un vaso de dulce sangre. Dibuja un corazon dentro de mi cuerpo. Con 
esto corazon agujero, bebe mi vida. 

Run away from what you’ve heard. Leave and write your own truths. They say He. 
He does not exist. It tells me so.

Say what’s on my mind? Ultimate indulgences; eating meat and having sex. A 
man is meat. Chocolate is sex. A Chocolate man is the only heaven that will ever 
exist. Next to Him.

Telling you about my life is wasting the time I have to live it. If you’re meant for me 
you’ll just know.

Un knowledged people need to stop giving the gift of life and start giving the gift 
of life.

Very little patience do I have for those with no words. I’ll look for the person who 
stole them from you.

Will you be the one that I can hold  for now? Do you have a sweet heart, do you 
have soft soul?. Will you be the the love  that my ego drinks?

Xoxo hugs and kisses. Hugs and kisses. Let me touch your skin, help me miss 
your soul.

You’re looking inside me. Like it used to.

Zero words writing in my head. Where do my thoughts go? They go on this page. 
This page of my life.

What I Love About Her

What I love about her 

What I love about her
I told her twice before
I don’t believe she heard me
Tell her tales of my amor

‘I think a lot about you’
I slowly brushed her hair
I guess she didn’t hear me
As I dreamed of our affair

‘What I love about you
I told you once before
It’s the way you look tonight’
I knew she wanted more

She sat there bated breath
As I waited for her coo
I saw her looking sideways
As she said ‘I love you too’

She teased me with her smile
Looking at me, while I sighed
I said she played too much
With me, she always lied

~~Later~~

While she laid upon her bed
Before she fell asleep
I leaned, and whispered to her
‘My love for you runs deep’

My lips had slightly grazed her
she shivered from my touch
I laid my hand upon her
and comforted as such

I moved my hand up lightly
‘For warmth’ my fingers dancing
I lied to no one really
Flames in me slow advancing

Breath escaped from her lips
Heat was rising in her too
I wondered what she dreamt about
Oh, if I only knew 

I placed my lips upon her neck
I suckled at her skin
Sound rumbled from her body
As I drew her scent within

I became a bit more daring
Pushed her back onto the bed
She lay there blinking at me
Her face a shade of red

I pressed my lips upon hers
She press’ed back at mine
I tasted in between her flesh
I felt us intertwine

I smiled inside her mouth
We laid there spreading grins
While our teeth clicked each others
I began to count my sins

I nibbled on her lip
I kissed it well again
I lowered to her neck and
Denounced the need for men 

I bit her neck a bit this time
Her moans excited me
And so I bit harder still
And waited for her plea

I looked into her eyes
And knew it had begun
I fiddled with her blouse a bit
And then it came undone

‘What I love about you
I told you once before
It’s the way you look tonight’
I knew she wanted more

I Love Men

I can attest to the cliché
Of losing faith in men
Testify for fallen lovelies
Broken hearted once again
‘Fore this day Id say that each
Was diff’rent from the last
Ignore mistakes unjustified
And mark them as the past
For reasons unknown to me
Their problems felt the same
And now I realize what it was
Same fella’, diff’rent name

I Want You

Passion erupting from your chest,
eyeing me like you do.
Singing to me, mouthing yes.
Telling me you want it too

Long for your smile, nail polised eye.
My body pulled close to you.
For your hand’s breath on my thigh,
Pupils say you want it to

Aged, to fine, more years to sin
Stubled man, my chance’as flew.
Caged, oh my, hungry for skin
I know you always wanted to

Your Eye confesses heat
feverd, I want it to
Waiting for lips to meet
Kiss me, mine want it too
Love, my heart lost a beat
Say yes, you wanted to
Just one time, and then repeat
Forever waiting, wanting you
