Colored Life

You've colored my life
In such a short amount of time
And I no longer
Want to hide
In layers of black and white
I only wish to dream
Of what is yet to come
And bask in the magic
Fly high in the sky
With lover's colored kite

Amber's Fire

My fingers are alight
Like fire
Energy bursting from within them
Powering through the ends
Like swords of light
Racing time
And challenging heartbeats
You did this
Brought me back to life
And made everything
Feel like electric fireworks
And magnetic tides
Throwing me with incredible force
Towards you
And everything we are becoming
It's the most beautiful flame
I have ever known
And I could sit forever
Hypnotically watching it dance
Twirling energy of light
Richest amber raging
Taunting the dark of night
And removing the blackness
Of an old life
Mine
Along with any of the shadows
That I used to own

You - Part 8

And then suddenly

The story I always wanted to tell

All the things I thought I still

Had left to say

Were gone

And so too were the feelings

That helped me create those words

And after every moment spent with you

Who would have thought 

That part 8 would be the end

But I'm happy with that

My recently found number 8

Letting go

For something wondrous 

And infinitely new

So the reason why 

Our story ends at 8

Is because the real meaning

Of infinite love

I found in someone else

Completely unlike you

Mexico Dreaming

I cannot sleep
My mind is filled with
Mexican dreams
And taking those four days off
To run away with you
I can't help but wonder
What might happen
If I give into you
And the desires building
Steadily inside of me
I have the potential to fall
Desperately for you
Maybe I already am

Your eyes scare me
In the best
And most beautiful way possible
They're everything I always hoped
That I would find
Everything
And more
Where did you come from?
And how did you find me?
I'm losing myself in you
Completely
I can feel it
But there's not one part of me
That wants it to stop

It's the middle of the night
And I've been staring at
This moonlit room
And you
For what seems like hours on end
You're asleep next to me
And I just want to kiss you
Over and over again
My mind is tangled
In the second sheet
We left on the shelf
When we made your bed tonight
And I just want to be tangled
In it with you too

You made love to me earlier
To the sound of a real record
Playing over on its end
And it was perfect
Now I'm still awake
With all these thoughts
Left circling in my head
And I can't find the off switch
To my minds own soundtrack
You're twitching
Ever so slightly
And I'm wondering what it is
That you're dreaming about

I've never had someone look at me
The way you do
And I've never had so much to learn from someone
Never wanted to
I tried to draw a heart for you
On a window that was half frosted
Half not
And now as I lay
Calmed by the window's blue light
Writing these moments
To keep from this night
Etched into my heart
Waiting for the dawn to come
I am happy
And content
And at one

Cafe Cafe

I'm sitting here
Cafe Cafe
Cosy and content
Inside you
Staring at your cup
Green outside
Full of tea
Of the English type
I ordered it
Because you did
The last time
We'd been here
Weather's the same
Sunshine, no rain
And surprise Cafe
It's warm again
Perhaps too warm
In this spot
By the door
Sitting up tall
On this chair
The vents above my head
Blasting a heatwave
Mechanically driven air
It's been such a while
Since I last saw your face
Cafe Cafe
Still my favourite place
And you're always on my mind
No matter what else I find
And I did
Find something
New
But at the end of the day
I still can't walk away
And what does that say
My little Cafe
About you
About me
About us

Strokes Of You

I don't need to think when I draw you

My hand is guided by my heart

And my heart knows every stroke

Of every line

That forms your face

Duck Rot

Another morning grey in the city

Cold and uninviting

Not at all displaying the chances

And opportunity bundled beneath its wings

I sit

Silently

Riding the morning bus

B62 

Ready to tackle 

Another 24

I see you

Large woman waddling

Feet shuffling along 

Damp and dirty ground

Here 

At this broken down corner

Of this broken down town

And I know

You don't aspire to anything more

For your life

Unlike you

I am so far from home

So out of my comfort zone

But my determination is unfaltered

This body wrapped around 

The bones and organs

And rouge saturated insides

Refuses to give in to 

The nothingness 

You seem to have lost yourself between

And the acceptance

Of a future as a duck

Webbed and stuffed 
Inside a scrunched up winter coat

That is stained and too small

For the mountain you've become

Pulling yourself along

Stalking the streets

That have been left here to rot

And so may you

Rot along too

If that's what you choose

But I will not

Can not

Refuse to
