There he was
tall, handsome, dangerous 
Alone
One sideways glance
She smiled
Giddy
Butterflies
Like a 
School girl crush 

I lay here exposed naked in front of you You alone know my truth I have never tried to hide my soul from you

You are the only one who can see right through me We play no games There are no secrets I am transparent to you

Silently enjoying the moment As your fingertips gilded across my skin you hot breath on my neck I was coming undone for you

We live in two worlds
Simultaneously spinning
Light dark
Good bad
One always pulling 
Harder than the other
Who will win

I have my wings
so I can fly on my own
gliding against the world
drifting with the clouds
As they lazily pass by
Freedom

She listened
In disbelief
To all of his lies
They were flowing
Out of his mouth
Like a river of words

Old friends brought
together sitting around the
fireplace drinking,
telling tall tales
discussing the
theory of everything

My memories
of him
are like a faded imprint
in my head
Life gets easier
as the years pass

We all weave

our own

tangled webs

We have to 

remember how to

get out of them

in one piece

without hurting others.

Our hearts

blood knot

keeps us bound

to one another

for eternity

As I learned
more about you
I sat in wonder
How do I deserve
someone as amazing
as you
in my life

I felt the sting

the first bite

as your fangs

sunk deeper

My eyes close

as blood trickled

from my neck

As I fall 

into your arms

There's a space
in my heart
that is waiting
to be filled
I will wait forever
for you to fill it
You are such 
a rare find

A tortured soul
Traveling through life
Without hope
Always remembering
The injustices of the past
Trying to get
Humanity back 

The shifting sands
of the desert
sing sweet verses
of change
It reminds us that 
everything in life is fluid

Let me fly away
Escape the mistakes
of my world 

There is no
one else who
can hold my
heart and soul
like you do
You care enough
to love all of me 

The smell of roses
stayed with me
throughout the night
I found scattered petals
everywhere when I 
woke up

My heaven and earth

will disappear

if you walk 

out that door.

My strength will
be tested

But I will

find love again.

I use to think
I was unworthy
of your love
As time passed
I realized
I was your 
everything

Let me be
the shoulder you need
to lean on
I am your safe place
a shelter
so you can heal
your storm tossed heart 

I feel
the silky touch
of sheets as
you lay me down
Is this my 
slice of heaven?

You came to me
in the haze
of my dreams
with messages
of hope and
understanding
You would set 
me free
to be me

I try to find
my way to you 
in the dark 
I move by instinct 
like a cat stalking 
It's prey 
Where are you 

Alone
Falling down a 
tunnel of darkness 
Hoping someone 
saves me 
from myself 

Take me to the
the place
where the greatest
pain can bring
the greatest pleasure 
I feel you
your needs 
wants 
deep in my soul 

Your words
The promises
Fingers lightly
Brushing my skin
Feed my desire
To be held
By you forever

The anger in your voice
pushes me
over the edge
I have to learn
to fly to keep 
from falling apart

This is our
last chance
Do we dare
take the leap
Say goodbye
to caution
Let our 
dreams mingle
as one

Where has this year gone
Just a blink of my eye
And it's time to
Celebrate a New Year
Say goodbye to days
Gone by 

I saw you
standing alone
I garnered a glimpse
Saw your
soulful hazel eyes
I longed to feel
the heat I saw in them

This seems to be
the end
All good things
seem to go away
This is farewell
Time to let go
of the past 

Spare my heart
when you
cut me open
I don't want 
my love bleeding
through the hole 
you left

I will make
your world
beautiful again
Just say it
Hug me with
your words
Let me cover
you with my love 

Your touch
was like
soft torment 

I stand in front
of you in silence
You look past 
the flaws in me
Never judging
You have 
become my
salvation

Woke up
reached over
you were gone
Only a dream
let me go
back to sleep
to find 
you again
