I Found It In You

If i were to choose,
my life or your love,
irrefutably, your love,
if love fades, life blues!

Webbed in my poetry,
love and ink- run veins,
heart caged, all in chains,
precious, far from jewelry!

Galloping horse, hot sand,
groomed my fur, my oasis,
your love, healed my crisis,
Oh, true love, in you, i found!

Diamonds In the Rain

Crystal clear pure rain drops,
elegantly on foreheads splashed,
diamonds embedded in your eyes,
honey viscously dripping off your lips.

Molten gold, beneath your skin,
your hotness won't allow it solidify,
deep in your eyes, a different galaxy,
an alien force draws me closer to you.

Clouds are crying, moon's jealous,
stars grow playful shooting the skies,
alien ships crushing before us tonight,
night drops dead silent, our lips interlock!

Before You Came

Before you came,
a sky full of fears,
O, larva-hot tears,
hearts, won't claim.

Before you came,
my life, fell apart,
Love, the lost part,
skull full of blame.

Before you came,
a butterfly, no rose,
played with my toes,
nights, did the same.

But then you came,
scented, lovely rose,
and the butterfly rose,
Lizzie was your name.

True Love

I'll be your cover, when it's cold,
Always your lover, love that's bold,
Kissing forever, fingers together fold,
Watching stars, days over, i'll ever hold.

You are a beautiful star, found you shinning in the sky,
An angel, that's who you are, brought beauty to my eye,
Poured out my love, a full jar, ever sweet with you my pie,
Sugary lips, feeling them from far, kiss me love, loosen my tie.

I will always say, "I love you", because that's how i feel,
I will always say, "I miss you", my empty heart, you fill,
I will always say, "I need you", without you, life's a raw deal,
It's true love for you, "Will you marry me", on one knee, i will kneel.

Life-Long Love

I let myself off a cliff,
landed in a garden full of roses.
Times blue, heavy grief,
found smiles under our noses.

Drawing portraits of you all night,
got my brushes painting love.
Brushes down, night poetry write,
got my quill scribbling love.

If loving is wrong, am an outcast.
Promise it's life-long, am here to last.
Love knocks, ding-dong, always opens fast.
Lips ever serving a love song, this love, vast!

Magic Petals

There is a dove trapped in my heart,
and a flower blossoming before my eyes.

There is a spark that ignites my night,
and a strong force freezing my tears to ice.

There is a stabbing pain that won't hurt,
and a lovely feeling elevating me to highs.

On mountain tops,
Dancing to the tune of the wind,
Plucked it up, nectar smeared on,
Enslaved my nose to its beautiful scent,
Caged my eyes with its beautiful petals,
Found a rose budding on my bruised heart.

A Rose For the Butterfly

I was once a butterfly fighting a whirlwind,
Thought i wouldn't fly, oh, fierce wild wind.

One coloured rainbow, painted with a crayon,
My world was so small, all i did was cry-on.

I swear, love does really make me feel so nice,
Always, all my life, have i yearned for that slice.

When you walked into my life, my love, my baby,
I promised myself, i'll be your man and your teddy.

My heart is your home, honey, you have my word,
Lets travel through life together, love's our reward.

Am that butterfly, drowning in nectar, on my rose,
My rose's sweet scent will forever please my nose.

Her Majesty

O, exalt her Majesty,
thou shall forever reign,
royal throne, love, modesty,
crown of my heart, shine, rain.

Thou own my ribs, stole my heart,
a sip of my own blood, red for love,
engulfed in love, your body's the art,
Long live my Queen, beauty of a dove!

Dear Lad

Dear lad, the head you would toss,
pain's sad, damn, sorry for the loss,

heavy start, the end, oh deadly gross,
grounded flat, the weight of your cross. 

Dirty score, tripped, broke your arm,
by the store, couldn't use that firearm, 
eyes all sore, it ends, served your term,
one-man war, bullets, the end's a storm!

Not Worried

Am not worried when we aren’t holding hands,
You’ll be holding my beating heart.
Am your love hero, please don’t clap your hands,
You are holding my beating heart.


Am not worried when you leave in the morning,
You left your heart under my pillow.
Am your loving cheerful sunrise in the morning,
You are the dream under my pillow.


You bring gravity to my moon,
Stay up all night collecting stars for me,
And still keep me in bed till noon.
I locked my heart, please keep the key.
