A night with my Lady - Jared M. Stein

Her body glistens in the light

I urge to play with her all night

I pick her up and hold her steady

Take a deep breath, we both are ready.

I run one hand up her long neck

Just touching her makes me euphoric

Across her body, my right hand goes

I've been practicing, believe me, it shows.

Her body glistens in the light

I urge to play with her all night.

I pick her up and hold her steady,

Take a deep breath, we both are ready.

Another deep breath, the tension mounts.

Have to stay focused, every moment counts.

I am ready; let's get movin'.

Here it goes, we both start groovin'.

Her body glistens in the light.

I urge to play with her all night.

I pick her up and hold her steady,

Take a deep breath, we both are ready.

I start out slow to get in the swing.

As I do, she starts to sing.

The sounds and feelings grow more immense.

The movements become more intense.

Her body glistens in the light.

I urge to play with her all night.

I pick her up and hold her steady.

Take a deep breath, we both are ready.

She screams and screams, while I am gropin'.

My heart stops as I see the door open.

My mom walks in and with a frown

Says, "Your guitar is too loud, please turn it down."

(This is one of my favorite misleading "love" poems, hope you guys enjoyed it!)

Mani and Downy

Manic,

Kind of euphoric,

Almost as if I'm high but without the drugs,

Almost like being intoxicated but I'm not drunk.

These ideas and dreams explode from within,

The rush of adrenaline in my veins, I can feel it,

I'm awake..all of me, I feel it underneath my skin.

I'm powerful, over the top, even crazy, just a bit.

Everything seems a little brighter, even a little lighter,

Now I'm the best poet, the best artist, maybe even the best writer.

But even now I still get tired,

Even now I would like to sleep,

But Mani yells, "Can't you see? You're inspired!"

"Take this opportunity, take it and leap!"

I feel my self soaring with the birds in the sky,

Not a care in the world, not a care about why.

Now..I know there's a reason for this,

And not a good one at that,

Something you definently couldn't miss,

For my brain is in constant combat.

And when Mani fails and has to go away...

...Downy decides it's his turn to stay.

He klips off my wings and ties me to the ground,

Creeps closely and whispers, "Now I'm the boss of this town".

..I try to let you go...

I try to think of all the million reasons why,

Why I should let you go and just say goodbye,

In my mind I know it's the right thing to do,

But my heart aches at the realization of losing you.

I feel so torn between what's right or what's wrong,

that I can't even bring myself to write a new song...

But if I kept you, that would be selfish, and that isn't me,

so...I'm letting you go, I'm just letting it be...

But...

Still...

I cant help it...

I just wonder...

Do you miss me like I miss you?...

Does your heart aches when you remember us too?..

Listen to Ben Platts “Grow as we go”

You know, I didn't believe in soulmates before I met you,

Isn't it strange that I now still believe in them after you left?

Fate is a twisted little thing and you're never quite sure what it'll do,

But one thing I know is that in the end of the day, it's all for the best.

You know, I didn't believe in love at first sight before I met you either,

I can't explain how and what else happened to me when you caught my eye,

Life has a way of turning things around when you least expect it..

And when I think about you and our short time it kinda leaves me in a constant sigh..

We could've been something amazing, and we were!

but it would have only grown...

I'll keep the memories with me for as long as I live,

for this is a love stronger than I've ever known..

You..

simply you..

I miss you..

and I'm convinced I'll always love you..

for you were..

Radiant..

Unexpected in the best way..

Treasure in my heart and..

Home, sweet home..

I wished we could do this together..

I still helplessly hope on a forever..

I understand that it cant be so..

but I still wished we could "Grow as we go"...

I dont know what this is called but it is beautiful

Life of Life! Thy lips enkindle

With their love the breath between them;

And thy smiles before they dwindle

Make the cold air fire; then screen them

In those locks, where whoso gazes

Faints, entangled in their mazes.

Child of Light! Thy limbs are burning

Through the veil which seems to hide them,

As the radiant lines of morning

Through thin clouds, ere they divide them;

And this atmosphere divinest

Shrouds thee wheresoe'er thou shinest.

Fair are others; none beholds Thee;

But thy voice sounds low and tender

Like the fairest, for it folds thee

From the sight, that liquid splendour;

And all feel, yet see thee never,—

As I feel now, lost for ever!

Lamp of Earth! Where'er thou movest

Its dim shapes are clad with brightness,

And the souls of whom thou lovest

Walk upon the winds with lightness

Till they fail, as I am failing,

Dizzy, lost, yet unbewailing!

Percy Bysshe Shelley
