Elated when I'm around you, 
Dreaming of you when I sleep, 
First thought in the morning, 
No, I'm not falling,
Smiling at your name mentioned, 
Blushing at the thought of you, 
Losing control of body and mind, 
Trembling at the thought of the other night, 
No, I'm not falling, 
Thinking of your eyes, 
and that beautiful smile of yours, 
Thinking of how our bodies fit,
Together so perfectly, 
No, I'm not falling, 
The sound of your voice, 
The way it deepes when your serious, 
The way your eyes seem, 
To look into my core, 
No, I'm not falling,
The way you tickle me, 
Even though I know you want more, 
The way we giggle,
And act like we're four, 
No, I'm not falling, 
The way I write poems, 
To get my feelings out, 
So I can try to deny, 
The fact that, 
No I'm not falling, 
Cause I think I've already fell!

Her breath on me,
Her tongue on me, 
Her skin against mine, 
Wanting so much more, 
Wanting all of her, 
Her breath heavy, 
Her moans soft and slight, 
Her body beautiful,
Moving with mine, 
Her nervousness, cute, 
Her shaking and trembling, 
Enough to drive me wild, 
Her taste, wonderful, 
Her smell intoxicating, 
Her whispers in the dark, 
Make me tremble all over, 
Wish she were here now, 
Wish we could sleep, 
In the same bed, 
To fall asleep, 
In eachother's arms.

Silence, Love

People say knowledge gives you power, 
But ignorance saves people from pain, from the truth,
Perfection dies with knowledge, 
Ignorance is comforting, 
Love lives in silence, 
Ecstasy is killed by words,
Hearts break because of the spoken language, 
Verbal confessions end relationships, 
So don't say a word, just hold me, 
Words not needed, only kisses, 
Your words cut, but your touch soothes, 
So cover me with your love,
And cover your mouth with your hand!

Damn You

Drawn to you, 
Always drawn to you,
Can't I ever let you go, 
I don't love you, 
But I need you, 
I can't give you what you want, 
Me, forever, 
But I can always give you a part, 
My body, on fire, 
Clutching to you always, 
Knowing perhaps there will never be another, 
I'll love again, that I'm sure of, 
But will I feel this heat again, this passion, 
This surge of power running thru me, 
This desire and need, 
I don't think I will and that scares me, 
Can I love again knowing it's just a matter of time,
Before I come crawling back, 
Needing you, to make me whole again, 
To bring my body back to life, 
Knowing I can't trust anyone like I do you, 
I can't give myself totally to anyone but you, 
I can't be crazy, be wild, be sexual, 
With anybody but you!
Damn You!

Secretly I Smile

Secretly I smile, 
Cause in my heart I know,
That everyday that passes by, 
Our Friendship grows and grows,
And even though I lust for you, 
This feeling is so fleeting, 
Cause friends is what I should have looked for, 
at very first our meeting, 
Cause if I died today, 
In some tragic accident, 
I wouldn't want a love affair, 
To be all our friendship meant, 
Cause if you miss me as a lover, 
You can always find another, 
But if you miss me as a friend, 
That will last until the end, 
I'll always love you Sara, this much I can't deny, 
But I'll love you as a friend, a friendship never dies!

Empty Words

Trust, that painful word without meaning,
Trust a Father, he hurts you, 
Trust a friend, they desert you.
Promise, that pointless word never kept,
Promise you'll always be there, you won't, 
Promise you'll not say a word, you will.
Believe, that greedy word that everyone wants, 
Believe in family, they split up,
Believe in in God, he ignores your cries for help.
Love, the worst word, never practiced,
Love life, it becomes a curse, 
Love anyone, they leave you, hurt you, or worse. 
I trust only one, a sister to me, 
I promise, but don't often keep, 
I know not what I believe,
I love cautiously!

The Secret

I'm telling you the truth I swear it, 
I'm knowing something you don't, 
And if you did know you'd shrink back in fear, 
Your skin would crawl, chills run down your spine, 
I know a flammable secret, one of which if I told you, 
Would light even the faintest fire in you, 
And cause a great smoking of the soul,
I'd tell you right now, if you wanted me to,
But I would tell it most carefully, to braid it and bend it so, 
I'd make it so it would hurt much less, so it wouldn't tear out your soul, 
You say you've got the smallest bones in your closet, if you've any there at all, 
Yet if you knew what I do, you'd back yourself into a wall, 
Into a tiny pocket of terror, hiding the truth from all, 
But I feel I just can't tell you, for it would leave you bare and empty, 
So I'll leave you with ignorance, 
For ignorance is in the shape of comfort!

A Stupid Poem! 09.17.2007

I kiss some other girl but,
She's not you,
I try to enjoy it but,
it's not with you,
I'm trying to bounce back,
get over you,
I try to move on,
Without you,
I wish the pain would stop,
the pain caused by you,
I wish I could stop looking,
at the pictures of you,
I wish I could stop,
feeling for you,
Feel like I could die,
without you,
can't seem to stop crying,
about you,
I wish I could see,
my life without you,
but it seems like I'm stuck,
forever without you!

Untitled

I'm sorry I truly am for constantly complaining, 
It's just that times are hard and it doesn't want to stop raining,
My problems, they aren't as bad as I make them out to be, 
They're true, but they don't happen as drastically, 
My dad, he doesn't worry about the present day,
He's more concerned about my future, 'bout what I'll do and say, 
He says that he's changed, says I'm the way he used to be, 
But he hasn't changed, and change I may never see, 
I may not even be alive, if I can't handly all this pressure, 
I mean to my next birthday I'm not even really sure,
But I mean, what a loss, there is no one who would miss me, 
I'd like to see my funeral, how many people there would be, 
I don't want attention, all I really want is love, 
I can't get it, not from family, school, not even him above, 
I'll stop now, no one's listening, probably talking to a wall, 
I'll just go out pretend that I'm happy, and hope that I don't fall!

Random Poetry

The day I met you, 
The sky was a brighter blue, 
The grass was a greener green, 
And the world was different, 
From how it always seemed! 
The day I met you, 
Everything was clear and true, 
There was only you to blame, 
That I knew my life, 
Would never be the same!
The day that I met you, 
The wind blew through my hair, 
And I stopped to breathe the air!
