Novel.
Open your eyes
Take a look at what stands before you
Stop fixating on the unknown
And start reading the pages
These words have never been seen
What she doesn't realize is
From the jump, she's been read
Intensely covered front to back
Each page carefully mined
Every word curiously inspected
As though he gazed upon her in real life
Together the words sound like the perfect melody
As smooth as Tennessee whiskey
And as warm as a glass of brandy
She doesn't realize it, but
She's being read, every day
Starts from page # 1
Words.
These words are mine
I create them and speak them
Not you
Craft your own story, negative or happy
Your choice
Stop with the hatred putrid vile you spill
This is my life, my words
Focus on your own
I get to create the tale I want
For me, for them, without you involved
How I want it.
Take your words and go
I've had my fill
Promise.
I can't promise you the perfect life
However that may be defined
I won't promise you the world
Whatever that may hold
I won't say that all our days will be easy
However, I can promise that I will love more today than yesterday
I can promise I will love more tomorrow than today
I can promise you endless romance
Thoughtfulness with every move
Spontaneity at the turn of every corner
I can promise I'll be the shoulder you lean on in hard times
I can promise I'll be the one who celebrates your accomplishments
I can promise you emotion, desire and days mixed with nights full of passion
I promise love
Will you.
Will you let me fingers run the freckles of your skin.
Will you let our eyes connect as they naturally do.
Will you let my hands grab hold of the hips that call them.
Will you place your skin on mine with no space between.
Will you let your heart beat next to mine like they are one.
Will you let your breath match mine as we interlace.
Will you let your head rest on my shoulder in the darkness of night.
Will you.
Footsteps in the Wind.
Do you hear that?
It's the wind carrying you.
Just as it did when you entered my life.
It's taken you away.
If for a moments time.
Seems uncertain when it will be up.
I wish you let your sails down.
Where my wall once stood.
Your footprints remain, secured by desire.
Drift back to mend this unbearable pain.
No Apology.
Fuck the apology which hung on your tongue
You should never bring yourself to say those words
You stepped in when she stepped out
You loved at the right time and with the right face
You did not love the wrong man
Though my body laid in one bed
My heart laid in another
And for that you will never apologize
For the way our eyes met and meet
Or our hands touched and touch
Or our bodies danced and dance still
I don't regret one single word whispered in the darkness of our love
I promise that my lips will not stop searching until they find the soft contours of your skin
So she can take your apology that hung on your tongue and shove it
You won't bring yourself to say the words
Because you loved and love
Because I loved and love you more
