The Dove...And I Died

My Hope grows like the contagion of
dandelion dust
So take me to the flowery field, no one knows,
About us,
You and I,
the heart and hand, I
die.

I don't think you meant to burn me
but I'm branded by your ways
Shake the dust, I have
to see the river, no one knows
About us,
You and I,
In the hive, I die.

Lead the way with your frozen eyes
I obliviously follow Further and further,
trusting lies,
thriving inside eyes so hollow
Take my tumors, no one knows
About us,
You and I,
Where you drowned
my oxygen, I die.

I felt up your velvet branches,
soul searching yet I'm scratching your back
Drag my bag of bones
because no one knows
About us,
You and I
and your murderous
touch...How I died.

I Believe, For Two

These are my words you took onboard,

Welcomed silence received 

I will not lose momentum, 

Stumble or fall. 

I will stand still to allow time to move...

Neither will you stumble nor fall.

I will keep holding 

And believing for two, 

Till we can hold each other...

Or at least Me holding you.

Woman Behind A Mask

Her silky deception 

pulls seductively 

words of truest devotion, 

words I yearn to hear 

As I step through 

black ink swallows me,

grotesque trap she has laid 

soul drains, turning hollow 

A haunting melody plays through my soul 

"Hey you, lost one, show me the way" 

how can I show you out 

when I am her prey?

To the woman in the mask 

who pretends she is nice 

behind slammed doors, 

facade falls, heart of ice 

Woe me at first 

you do it so well, 

loosen my reins of control 

welcome to my hell 

Dejavu forever slams my chest 

dance of ancient times

when she pulls off the mask...

The demon whispers: "you are mine"

Will This Last?

Can you tell me are we meant to be or is it just wishful thinking? 

Loving you can be such a struggle, but also a beautiful experience. 

I love you, I don't want you to leave me here alone with my fears, 

Hear my thoughts and just know I don't want you to go. 

Anytime you needed me I'd promise I'd be there. 

Tell me will this be you and me or will it only just be me? 

Will it last?

 

Will this last or are you soon doomed to be just part of my past?

Haven't seen you in a while; 

I fall into a short trial of depression every time you leave me be 

I can't see myself without you in my life 

I no longer feel so empty and hollow, 

I could never follow for you gave me the confidence to lead the way 

You'd never say you hate me, would you? 

Tell me will this be you and me or will it only just be me?

I won't ever give up on you, I love you and I promise I'll do my best to keep you satisfied. 

I've never lied to you nor have I ever deceived you. 

Believe me, I do love you. 

Yes I do, love you. 

I just have this one question for you, 

Will this last?

Back Into Place

Does it matter how many times I tell you that I love you? 

It doesn't seem to change a thing really

Things right now just aren't the same 

There was a time when I wanted to hold you 

And treat you like the queen so you can stand on side of me 

The woman who would go to war with me 

Plus all these other feelings I've held back 

And now I think its time 

To say what's on my mind 

It's sorta been long 

Since last I've seen your face, or heard your voice.

And things just feel out of place 

But thats just it... 

I can recall the 1st time I layed eyes on you 

Your cheerful smile and pretty eyes would drive any man wild. 

I really cannot lie 

I swear I was damn near hypnotised, 

So I feel that our casual encounter was just a blessing in disguise 

Turns out...

I was right 

Your kind heart wrapped a lasso of care around my lost mind 

You showed me a positive path and now I continue to walk that line 

I remember every conversation we've had whether it was over the phone or face to face or through twitter or whatever 

Good laughs and warm hugs and a constant smile on your face 

They say you don't know what you really have until its gone. 

Physically you're not here so now my heart beats alone 

But in my heart I feel you and it keeps me going strong 

But with that being said its weird without you 

When I wanted to speak you'd always lend an ear 

Fxck, how I just wish I could see your face  

Cause without you things shxt just seems out of place 

And that's really it Dudu 

You just don't know how 

Much I miss you now 

I'm praying everyday, 

There has to be a way 

To get things back into place! 

My Forever Flower

I once read; that if someone loves a flower, they should love it from a distance 

They should admire it, 

enrich in it, and 

Cherish it from afar! 

Just so as to not misplace it, 

taint it, or in anyway, bring about death to it, 

Detachment scar,

Or harm!  

For a flower that is loved from afar,

Is said to be loved the very best... 

Its presence alone is too blessed to be tampered with or uprooted... 

I will always love you (my forever flower) 

I willingly do so from arms length, 

with tear filled eyes and weeping lips 

Because If I could go back in time, I'd put all my trust in you (my forever flower) 

And commit my heart from petal...To stem...To original seed. 

Yet just seeing you stand firmly, 

sway steadily and blossom ever so graciously, 

regardless of storm...

Fills me with true inner peace... 

True inner peace indeed! 

Learning To Walk & Fly

Experiencing distance travelled 

making stronger the commitment 
this glue 
the bond holding 
happiness in place 

Like lovers entwined in friendship 
me and you 
Always to be smiling 
when walking hand in hand.

I've allowed some fluttering 
my ground is weakened I say 
though you'd throw that out of 
loves court 
marked as case dismissed 
Your free to go 

So yes I'll flutter 
It's what I do 
And you being you 
Well.. 
You being you 
smoothing out my plumage 
Encapsulating the moment perfectly 
along with the fears before 
being thrown far far away 

Till only the fluttering of love 
Seen heard and wanted as we 
both learn to fly once more.

More every single time!

Every time I see you You're always more beautiful With an extra glow in your smile And even more depth in your eyes (I still fall into them every time.) After we embraced and parted to leave I kept turning around to sneak a peek Of your absolutely incredible body And I caught you turning to look back at me And my heart beated faster And harder And warmer than ever It's dancing right now Just at the memory And at the prospect Of seeing you.

An ode to that kind of Beauty

She’s beautiful, 

that fun kind of beauty. 

The kind of beauty that drags me laughing by her side 

Electric, 

a 9-volt battery to my tongue. 

Blonde, brunette, or whatever who cares what fucking colour 

for I feel she brings them all out with ease. 

How can I refuse 

that kind of pulse 

that finds my own. 

That sync, 

And sweet unsuspecting syncopation 

to a something I really want 

to get to know. 

That kind of beauty 

needs to be explored. 

So I'll stop. 

Hear her heart 

Shut out the noise 

Take her hand. 

and just...

let 

her be.

Tale of Once upon a time

Tale of Once upon a time   

There was a woman that caught my eye   

We spent the day exchanging phrases   

Words aligned like old familiar faces   

We came to find that space and time   

Did not exist between our lips   

I knew hers and she knew mine   

  

We kissed;   

Both meeting of the mind and lips   

And as we intertwined   

Our lines began to shift   

To find an unexpected twist   

In this; our once upon a time   

  

Two parts a drift   

Two halves that fit   

My brokenness is part of her   

The part that makes her whole again  

Her brokenness is half of me   

The half I need to be complete   

Two parts a drift   

Two halves that fit   

She is mine and I am hers   

  

This isn't where the story ends   

This is where it all begins   

Once upon a time   

Two halves a drift and then collide   

Now I am hers and she is mine
