Like the sweetly soft carress
of a lover's lips inchig
their way over the nape of your neck.
Like the sugar-coated voice
that sends tingling sensations
up and down your spine.
Like the sensational art
of fallinf in love,
truely,
madly,
deeply.
Like the warm golden rays of the sun
fighting their way through
mightmarish grey clouds
that once was a storm.
Like the feeling of my hand
enveloped in yours
and the simple smile I receive in return.
Like the shrieking giggles of a child
left to run free
among the field of wild flowers,
colored in brazen hues of purple and blue.
Like the three minute love song
that brings back memories
of childhood infatuations.
Like the sensation that overwhelms me
when my eyes lock into yours
and I feel nothing but
comlpete happiness.
I've tasted perfection at it's best
the moment his lips touched mine.
His eyes sought unattainable answers
to questions
he was too afraid to ask.
His hands desperately searched
for the warmth
that left my body
the closer he inched towards me.
Body silently quaking with
anticipation moments before
fantasies would play out
into reality.
A quiet touch
carresses my face
and I sink into oblivion.
Watching the wind lash out
around his face,
he smiled softly into the sky.
Chest heaving with a sigh,
he took in the scent
of the heavens
as serenity settled over him.
Contentment is what kept him
grounded
to this point.
Love is what kept his soul
soaring high above
the celestrial skies
Every hope and dream
he ever whispered
has been embodied
into what stood before him.
And what stood before him was
me.
5/31/01
How he made me smile
with a single wink of an eye.
And how I felt 8 feet tall
from the approval that
left his lips.
And he made me feel beautiful
as we sat in the iron-wrought chairs
bathe in the light of the full moon
in his mother's garden.
The smiles don't come as easy
and I barely feel up to my 5'5" frame.
And I don't really feel beautiful
any longer as I curl up into myself,
hiding away from the rest of the world
not completely ready for anyone to
find the simple beauty that is
waiting for the face of the next full moon.
Turn towards me and
fill me with those feelings
kept bottled up inside
the intricate tunnels of your mind.
Allow me to gaze into your eyes,
the windows of your soul,
so I can witness for myself
the secrets your heart holds.
Quietly utter uninhibited words
of your fondest memories locked
awayin the depths of
your subconscious.
Open it up all to me,
a simple request I make
and let me decide how to
handle it all.
Drunken dreams revolve
around reality-based scenerioes
as we lock lips in an
estatic moment.
No one knows what
runs rampid though
our imaginative minds.
Can this be real?
Do we want this
to be a reality?
Take this to the next level
and we'll see what
playgriound we'll frolick in
and what rainbow-colored
laughter will escape
our cherry-hued lips.
Beauty be devised
by the internatl imagination.
Combination of unity,
along side common interest, external landscapes
painted in shades of violet.
Intense light coming
from within a heart
that has held silent
visions of a never-ending dance....
What am I to do
now that I have
hit that ending point
I did my best to avoid?
What should I do
when my heart is screaming to
remain loyal to
opposite ends of reason?
This has become one of
those "adult" defining
moments of truth
which will go down
in my immediate history
as the ultimate turning point
to noted date in time.
I have been unknowingly
preparing myself for this
particular battle,
yet,
It does not mean
extreme emotion will not suface.
We either do it together
or I go at it alone.
Both are story-filled paths.
Yet only one will get traveled.
My thoughts drift towards
infinity
as it has lost it's way
through vibrating emotions
known as
you.
Listless seconds stumble by
as time continues to move me,
constantly and unconsciously,
forever in Fate's hands.
Quite the feeling of contentment
we get with the knowing sense
of uncontrollable chaos
that inevidebly lies ahead.
Why question control
when you're not flying
this spacecraft?
Just rememeber to breathe.....
When the decision became final
in my head for me to walk away
from what I thought I knew
and what I assumed to be
all I had desired,
my eyes opened to possibilities
that could become.
When the words left my mmouth
and declared all that I
came to work towards,
my heart took the stage
as the innocent and vulnerable
character of Life
which won in the end.
Slightly colored dreams and desires
teased me to reach out
and grab hold of it all.
For once,
I would like to believe
that it's not about me.
Just speak to me for real
and toss me up into the air
so I can finally feel the wind
rush against my face...
