You’re the freshest breath of airA beautiful painting that grabs my stareWith style so impeccableAnd every bit of flair. I’d give you every waking minuteWithout a single careFor you I’d walk a thousand miles Or a hundred flights of stairs. The highest peak I’ve ever climbedBut still your weather’s fairLike raspberry jam and peanut butterWeContinue reading “Fresh Air”

Lonely Nights
When I close my eyesI see your faceIt takes me backTo my favorite placeI see the trees The open spaceI feel your kissesYour warm embraceThe ones I missAnd cant replaceYou soothed my soulMy saving graceBut now youre goneYouve left this placeNow only in dreamsCan I see your face.
I Think I Think I Think
I think about you everynight before I go to bedI think about your loving lips and how they kiss my headI think about things you’ve said which made my face turn redI think about our hardest times and tears we both have shedI think about the nights we called and words I left unsaidI thinkContinue reading “I Think I Think I Think”
Dwindling Flame
I realized our flame burnt outWhile yours lit for someone elseBut mine still quickly moves aboutAnd wax just slowly meltsI take a breath, and hard I blewBut never did the flame subdueInstead it only grew and grewInto something else anewI put it down and walk awayIn hopes that it will lose its flameBut a wildContinue reading “Dwindling Flame”
A Colorless Life
His life lost all its colorIn the absence of his loverFeeling cold as winterIn the middle of the summer. His mind is filled with imagesOf how they used to laughBut it only breaks him moreBy living in the past.Trying to forgetHe looks for someone newBut he ends up more upsetCause they never fill her shoes.SoContinue reading “A Colorless Life”
Her Unplanned Life
She leads him down a hallwith no clothes on at all.Knowing that he’s nervousshe feels it in his palmTheir bodies are treasurethat somehow lost its gold.His from seeking pleasureand hers from being sold. Entangled in the sheetshis heart quickly beatshe’s moaning and groaningwhile she just softly weeps. The money vibrates in her handlike precious contraband.Continue reading “Her Unplanned Life”

The Words of A Fortune Teller
She looks inside the crystal balland tells me what she sees“Now grab my hands, pay attentionand keep your eyes on me.You’ve been a slave to your pastbut now you must let go.You’ve made mistakes, you’ve finished last but this is how you grow.I see within the crystal ballyou only have two roads;one is clear asContinue reading “The Words of A Fortune Teller”
My Reoccurring Dream
You were in my armsI felt your skinUnder the starsIn the city Berlin.I heard your voiceI saw your smileNo other noise Heard for a while.Your eyes were blueLike a cloudless skyOh, what a viewFor a sore eye. I grabbed your hipsAnd pulled you inYou kissed my lipsWhich made me grin.It felt so realToo good toContinue reading “My Reoccurring Dream”
Beautiful Broken Glass
Sometimes we hold onto things that hurt us more than help us. We grow accustomed to their presence in our life so much that we feel its easier to stay than to let go. We fear the unknown but close our eyes to the present, hoping it will get better on its own…
