Truth As I See It
How could this possibly be a anything fake
For that would be true if you were Rod
Or Todd
Or Harry
Or drake ...
But no, you seem to arrive at just the right pace
Perhaps anyone else it would just be a disgrace
Yet you
My king
I swear it's those lines in your eyes
That smile you wear churns my mind and heart awake
That brain of yours reaching and stretching pure grace.
I watch your arms and hands sway when you speak .
Your words trickle of your tongue like the great escape .
Making me think before I speak
Why do I still try to explain it to you
Do you truly see the magic that resides in u?
I am so used to it you see
Trying to make sense, to articulate my fate
I love my ideas, they can truly motivate
And I don't need to prove to you
I make some killer pancakes
Or that I love to decorate
Or promise I'll be good to you
Because well truth is the truth is the truth
You see it's just this way
Many people need things
Arranged a very specific way
In order for them to be and feel ok
Like fitting inside squares and ovals
or hearts made of cake.
So I give them a piece of me
My own unique shape
Unable to change this way that I communicate.
Some say Sarah,
You are so rare. I've been waiting so long to see that pretty face
You are truly
Gods gift to this place. They say share as much as you like, it's fine you are safe.
So you see,
I will believe anything that you say. Especially when it comes to the music of time and space and heart handshakes .
Then 2 weeks later they disappear from plain view. Or I have to say no thanks as the connection I feel just didn't ring true
The usual reason is all the sudden,
I'm much too deep
But not long ago I was
A living breathing saint?
Could I tone it down? Not talk until 8?
Sarah your words give me a nasty headache!
I scratch my head as not knowing what to do. That's strange
How odd
Just recently They said they wanted and loved all the things I do.
I believe people, because you see,
My intentions are true
If I tell you, it's the truth.
And no matter how many times
I've gotten lies and pretend sighs,
I wouldn't let it keep me from knowing
What it's like to finally come home to you
will you honor and keep me safe? I believe you. I truly do.
They were just all preparing me for you.
I've made some foolish mistakes. And that's perfectly ok..
I didn't always choose well when it came to real dates. But that's ok we learn and that is what makes life so great.
You don't seem to understand
Why I keep saying thanks
While I fish for the "one right word"
That says it all straight
And could possibly add up
To what it means to truly appreciate
All the things you have done Since our very first coffee date.
The words I love you can be tattered and worn. Misused and construed only for the the righteous ones. Thinking of themselves rather then the power of US.
So I get it.. I do.
But I must confess my love
Thanks is all I know how to do
When i dreamed about you so long
And wishing you could be near
I have always longed for real ness
Honesty and truth
anyone can make a castle
Out of sand, wood stone and couple of unreliable screws .
We pretend it will stay and weather a quake. We truly convince ourselves
That its the story that life creates . But we know the difference We worry what our mothers, brothers or fiends think But how can it be love when it shatters and breaks?
My dear love can't you see?
We have turned a new leaf
We can dream any dream we choose
When we are awake.
And I would also gladly sleep in with you any day of the week.
I've been looking into many faces
Secretly wishing it was you
But I'm afraid I can't stop
Writing poems on this canvas
That you and I create
That you hang in our favorite room by the lake. You are my eternal flame. And if you need me to remind you every day of the week , since 48-36 hours is much to early to speak and you may not believe me anyway, I am more then happy to wait... as long as you need to understand or tp trust why our hearts are in Sync.
This was no accident.
I wonder if we met a different time
Would you look at me
with the same Grin
I see now on your gorgeous square chin?
That smile of yours it is so true
It is a celebrated mellow
I want to kiss it softly every minute and every hour
If I could would you say " ok Sarah , now break. I never want to make you run or suffocate. I want you to soar above the clouds and feel peace at night when you sleep or lie awake. I hope it's my body you take on as part of your embrace.
I'll be your greatest queen
The one who supports our dreams
A woman who isn't weak
But could melt like a sweet Bar of fudge
on a hot midsummer Orlando street
Cause all you gotta do is lean in
Show me that strength
Please be real... and mean what you say
Because I'll keep believing you until my breath becomes weak
and it's time to sail away to another far away place...,,
So strong you are
Like permanent paint
Not rusty or dusty
But honest and straight
Don't have time to dance tango
With a temporary mate
I want to glide across the dance hall,
While our music sets the beat...
I want to share in a lifetime of feasts.
Do you dare come dream them with me?
