There was passion,
strong and uncontrolled
emanating from our bodies
pulsating through a room
Kiss me hard, strong and true
it could’ve been forever
but more than love got in our way
my hand was not the only thing
you needed to hold
But there was passion,
strong and uncontrolled
emanating from our bodies
pulsating through a room
Kiss me harder, strong and true
I required more than that kiss
it thrilled but did not fulfill
devotion was found only in words
but your actions screamed
But oh was there passion,
strong and uncontrolled
emanating from our bodies
pulsating through a room
Kiss me hard, Kiss me strong, Kiss me true

Your Love Does Not Keep Me Afloat
Your words echo in my heart
they resonate in my mind.
The voices all scream out
and pull me to the past.
I need to escape the waves
continuously lapping my heart.
They pull me under
and the tide whips me around.
I search for the land
my lighthouse to guide me back-
pull me to safety
rescue me from these waters.
The dangers draw near
an attack from all sides
as I gasp for air
I can't help but smile.
Your affections misguide me
I require more than words.
You lack devotion
you have no anchor to hold me down.
I urge you to retain your love
await one who is free to accept.
For mine has been offered
and accepted without suppression.
More than
Even flowers flutter in the wind
their stalks bend to the power,
all in a trembling voice.
They shimmer in the sun
warm to the touch and hot to the hand
valued above others.
Here I lie alone
no body, nor son to warm me
his words lost in the silence
as admiration dwindles and falls.
Here she lay forgotten.
Sand cradled and embraced repeatedly
the waves transform each bit
as his charge overpowers,
alters the smallest of cares
generating that worth viewing
and beyond so, wooing
Yet here I lie alone
still no body, nor wave to lap me
the words falter through distance
their admiration dwindles and fails.
Here she lay forgotten.

Progress report
It's never fully done
We're always striving to prove, improve,
To learn and relearn
If we see it as the end, so it will be
The end mark instructs a stop.
Don't stop, never stop.
Continue on the journey,
Never be content where you are
Take the time to enjoy the ride
But never stop riding.
Teardrops of pain trumped those of joy.
The inequity of this fate brings agony-
A heart of dreams wrenched from my being
completely unknowingly
While the world watches in ignorance.
To you my smile shines bright
The shimmer in my eyes only of love
for they've forgotten my future
and altered yours
And the world watches in ignorance.
Few know of my unabating grief
And even less can understand it
Empathy is not my intention
My desire is only a modification of the time line.
We stand at the foot of the mountain
Hand in hand, eyes cast upward
Contemplating one and the same
Yet viewing from truly dissimilar positions.
I marvel at the drastic contrast
I fear the bearings where we'll converge:
How far must we trek before we unite;
How far until we balance?
We walk this path in tandem
In step yet discrete
Our footsteps echo behind us
The shadows cast no light on our path.
It's a feeling i can't shake
a desire i can't escape
we all have an image
a reputation to uphold
but i need to breakout
Bonds that tie me down
stipulations that impede me
propriety as my only beacon
excluding the chance for change
opportunities for adventure
You grow through pain
wrong paths lead us there
but living with no freedom
disallows such wanderings
and all potential growth is ravaged
Under a microscope nothing is perfect
Blemish and defect are inevitable
nothing is as it originally seems
Plans and purpose fall to the way side
as our tracks silently change course
unbeknownst to the distracted crew
Our plates are beyond our official 'full'
With work, and life, and new voices
at what point do we overcome all this "new"?
you can't fall-
you have no rope
so don't get too tangled up in me*
so high up
with no one to catch you
you aren't as invincible as you feel
we're untied
vulnerable to height
and yet here we keep dancing
warnings are lost
blowing away in the wind
cause we are too tangled to listen
~for a time on a high perch~
