LOVE’S BALLET  
Poetry

 

DELICATE TRAGEDY


If I am speaking in the past

I thank you for the love you have shown,

Had I known it wouldn’t last

My whole life I still would have blown.


More insecurities cast

In light of the love that has grown,

Its disappearance works very fast

Taking on a life of its own.


I gave you my existence at the risk of creating distance

At a time when everything unfurled,

If the tragedy is not delicate and the delicate part is tragic

Nothing is left of my world.

 

Only if my heart wants to

Can it attempt to block out this pain,

Don’t expect me to rationalize

With the rationally insane.

 

We need to resolve this with patience

You know my craziness is you,

All my abilities practicing motion

Every capability seems new.

 

I have dug my own grave

Into this box I don’t wish to fit,

Notice the top is slowly closing

Every night’s insomnia prying the slit.

 

I am struggling from my end

Is your perspective as bare?

You are letting the incredible slip by

Something once strong now with nothing to spare.

 

You go by what you feel in the moment

I live my life longing for your attention,

All of the time I spend planning

How to perfect its every dimension.

 

I am prepared to bear your words

Time is too precious to wait,

My tears have stopped and hardened

Came too early and yet too late.

 

Time is our greatest enemy

One month, two months, then three,

Trying to avert my mind from thinking

You will forget about me.

 

Others with chaos around them

Are better organized than we,

But I will only embrace doubt when

I no longer desire what I see.

 

A dark future knows nothing

Of our beautiful past,

Its emptiness can never touch

What love has captured so fast.

 

Must I be forced to live

Facing drastic changes I am not used to?

Without you ample time will give

Everything I can feel abuse through.

 

Maybe for some reason

Our emotional energy is acting strange,

Maybe with more passion this season

Reluctance will not fight change.

 

Maybe what I feel in this separation

You think is healthy,

Maybe I see us as rich

In your eyes no where near wealthy.

 

Maybe there is a purpose

For me to finish this book,

The whole journey was worth it

If you give it an attentive look.

 

What I really want

Is for us never to return from flight,

Instead of writing in this tone

I would prefer no time to write.

 

I cannot go on like this

I have to exhaust this feeling,

At times when you are gone

My daily life it is stealing.

 

If only I had the power

To manipulate the unappealing,

Fear captures this hour

Will not release the joy it’s concealing.

 

I cannot handle the lack of daily life

Knowing it will never give up its reign,

Only try to revise and condense it

To block out the routines of its pain.

 

I wish today would hurry by

I wish to end this poem fast,

For the way I feel right now to become eternity’s lie

To reflect on more paradise surpassed.

 

When will the anatomy of love

Be cleansed by the light of day?

Instead of this delicate tragedy

Eating it internally away.

 

The cruelties of love

Are tragedies unplanned,

Like sculpting all your devotions

On a windy day in the sand.

 

When the burden becomes a must

Is when the fascination will leave,

Like remains of a heart’s dust

Easily brushed off your sleeve.

 

If we must say goodbye

I will do so with grace,

Then quietly place a bomb in my mouth

Look away when it lights up my face.

 

I am wearing agony’s crown

As life slowly becomes the thief,

Still the concept of love is you

And I refuse to give up this belief.

 

Maybe I am creating phantom pain

I don’t even have yet,

How can I rewrite this dramatic scene?

Love’s not covered by health net.

 

This purge will leave a trace

A consumption in which I am dying

With no direction from within

To expose whether your love is lying.

 

What fascinates me the most

Is I still grip my end of the rope

This massive struggle is the host

Of all my efforts in trying to cope.

 

Do you know what happens to a diamond

When it is constantly neglected?

It maintains its shine

Underneath becomes dull and infected.

 

A diamond in the ruff you found

For you the sun it reflected

I continue to shine unprotected

To bring you more paradise unexpected.

 

Until my brilliance is misdirected

It is I who pain has perfected

If we can just stay minimally connected

I will believe I am somewhat respected.

 

Meanwhile a tragedy developing at its own pace

It races to the finish line

Looks back and laughs in its own face

Running past every warning sign.

 

I set you free to explore others

Just don’t give away your soul

As long as my image bothers

Every time you feel in control.

 

Go ahead and set me straight

Put an end to all that seems

Then cruel reality and its fate

Will take over all my dreams.

 

How long will this continue?

I am afraid to feel this way any longer

What I saw is gone since I last seen you

I’m afraid the pain will only get stronger.

 

My longing tears open that same old wound

When we temporarily say goodbye

I think about you thinking about me

Never for a moment questioning why.

 

When a phone call becomes a must

My four post bed, a four post stake,

When you show slight interest in my trust

A single tear becomes a crystallized lake.

 

Only respect for you at this unreasonable hour

My usual course attacks until I break,

Why do I give insomnia so much power

I can't sleep, my nightmares keep me awake.

 

Prohibited by my love from implying

Any existence that is fake,

Prohibited by my honesty from ever lying

My love will never measure how much you take.

 

Now the farewell in our parting

Becomes a prolonged breathless dive

My persistence you are faulting

The only reason I am alive.

 

My telepathy is always exulting

Tell me for what should I strive?

It is love’s wound you are salting

In this struggle it cannot survive.

 

I'm lost, come help me find you

A part of love you are afraid to encroach,

Tragedy is the undercurrent without you

Bleeding my heart until you approach.

 

Distant whispers in your ears

Until the day you hear me

Let go of those fears

Only that release will heal me.

 

Think of everything we have been through

Nothing I say can be disguised

The wonders we have discovered

Trips you have taken in my eyes.

 

All the times I called you

And you didn’t pick up the phone

Reached out for you in silence

Let’s leave that silence alone.

 

The more you get to know me

You realize I see it from above

On my knees only for you

Only you own the worship of my love.

 

I flirt with clues I am afraid to forget

My heart beats every detail of our past

Gives them to my memory with sincerity

To make every image last.

 

My heart refuses to heal into mystery

This is our world, others just live in it,

Trying to invade the substance of our history

I must heighten my verse to win it.

 

A romance can be forbidden

But only in the mind,

Unless you fully release what is hidden

Reality continues to be unkind.

 

Tell me it is possible

That will for now at least save me,

So I can survive the upcoming months

Looking forward to the outcome of your maybe.

 

Look closer with attentive eyes

Can you see the depth of my hope?

To us possibility never lies

It forces the truth to cope.

 

Why is contemplating your maybe

Worth more to me than anything certain?

Anyone who approaches me bravely

Is just a spectator behind your curtain.

 

I am certain you already know this

Though you can’t label your thought just yet,

Once it collaborates with your urge to love

It will convincingly sway it I bet.

 

If I just touch one way that you feel

Maybe my worth will liberate its magic,

Will I dissolve its aura if I kneel?

Will the end of our story be tragic?

 

Are you making space for me in your heart?

Think about it no need to hurry,

Take as long as you need to reflect from the start

In the meantime I anxiously worry.

 

Do you like to get lost

In the dream that we created?

If we don’t reconcile at all cost

The rest of my existence will abate it.

 

What do you want me to say?

That we shouldn’t even be friends?

Would you rather live that way?

Missing the insanity if this ends?

 

Have I lost you?

I need you back to get sober,

Our future must make demands

Before the next moment is over.

 

Would you pick up the phone

If right now I try to call?

Not to pressure you, but to let you know

Every such moment I want to stall.

 

Don’t save the hard questions

Let them out in excess,

They only fine tune our commitment

As long as the final word is yes.

 

Ask me how strong my emotions are

I have flashbacks of a possible goodbye,

When I look away you are instantly far

This fear of loss cannot sigh.

 

Every link to a warm feeling

Brings you into my mind,

All my efforts at honest healing

Renders lies that are unkind.

 

Maybe you don’t realize

My eyes are in wonder all over you,

Every inch surveyed and idealized

I wish you knew it can come true.

 

Just the mere thought of a chance

To lie down next to you for days,

The mere closeness of your breath

Leaves me peacefully grinning for days.

 

Do you think of me

When built up sentiments come due?

Give those thoughts to me

To gift wrap with a bow of the sun’s hew.

 

Nothing can yank away

Love, happiness, sorrow and dismay,

I think about this disarray

With hope hanging on to everyday.

 

What meaningless activity should I start?

Perhaps personify my car,

Because I sat many times in it

During the hardening of this scar.

 

Will I be forced to leave love for awhile?

Replace it with reckless fun?

A rebellious mode without style

Of that kind of life I want none.

 

Staring at your sincere smile

A photograph is an amazing thing,

Engraves images of staining pain

Frightened of what else it may bring.

 

I try to place an aspect of you

Into the new strange faces,

Knowing this repeated behavior

Only leaves painful traces.

 

If you are not the one

The concept of love itself will crumble,

I know it is more than willing

To overcome this minor stumble.

 

If you are not the one

Why is my mind pressing the issue?

Long ago my heart joined in

I always pity the box of that last tissue.

 

Each tear generates a word

Until the whole poem starts crying,

Will you wade through the puddle and get wet?

Forever will never give up trying.

 

We might as well make forever our friend

It will bring the joy that is to transpire,

Force unintentional errors to end

The after-effects of that is fire.

 

Every time I see fire

It reminds me of……

Well, let’s just take from that desire

And build up the love.

 

Is it possible to fall in love

During an exhilarating climb?

Always moving forward and above

Sacrificing sleep over time.

 

Is it possible to emotionally climb

At the same time physically fall?

Is it possible to hate time?

When you wish it would end it all.

 

My expectation is in your voice

It sees this silence as absurd,

I hang on as if I had no choice

Longing for attention not slurred.

 

I will teach you that part of love

Is having your comfort zone stirred,

When your feelings are clear

At the same time your world becomes blurred.

 

The logic of control becomes incomprehensible

When sedated by our chemistry’s potion,

Impossibilities of love seem very sensible

When you embrace the ambition of my devotion.

 

The next time I see you

I will greet and embrace you with paradise,

Bringing memories of our ideal past

Only this time ten times as nice.

 

I am in love with you within our dream

I am in love with the dream within you,

I am in love with the happiness I have seen

Pure heaven you have pulled me through.

 

Forgive me if I love you

More than love itself is aware,

Its internal reflection will give you

Results no one else can share.


I want to give you the greed part of my love

I want to give you the love part of my greed

I want you to use it, abuse, don’t lose it

It forms the basis of my every need.

 

An observer of our love can write ten novels

On what you hand me your smile with,

On the soft caresses between us

On how reality is a fast myth.


Here try this one on

Another image I can dream about,

Let an observer try to describe

The endless reasons I have no doubt.

 

I feel spoiled when in your presence

You are the reason my heart cares to speed,

Losing you makes as much sense as

Missing oxygen from the air that I breathe.

 

I thank you for the dream everyday

The one I live since I found you,

I will not listen to reality say

I can no longer be around you.

 

What should I think and how can I say it?

What is the password to your smile?

My heart is the foundation and firmly I lay it

To dress your glowing eyes with style.

 

My dear soul mate, interpret your feelings

You don’t realize what I can’t explain,

When the music dies down

Is when my persistence will sustain.

REASON WITH THE HEART               PART ONE

 

Reason:

Be of good cheer sweet heart

Your future welcomes a clear start.

 

Listen to me I am your reason

A massacre has occurred on what you built,

Gain composure and perceive the changes ahead

This lethargic feeling will wilt.

 

I have observed that relationship from the start

You have held on and on and on,

The first logical step now

Is to accept that the other is gone.

 

Don’t feel sad you could not control the pendulum

Outside forces were at work,

Putting extreme measures on the swings

Even as they saw me lurk.

 

I have decided you need closer supervision

Now that your health comes into play,

Before I lay down my wisdom

I will listen to what you have to say.

 

Heart:

I built that pendulum and the forces,

I knew about them before they came,

You can act “intellectually superior”

But know that your baby-sitting is lame.

 

What do you want from me?

I will not listen to your advice,

Before you start attacking my emotions

With your great mind, think twice.

 

There is no comparable data in healing

It does not stem from any knowledge I lack,

Go back and study more of my anatomy

Before you pat yourself on the back.

 

Let me give you a clue smart one

I did not mean actually go read a book,

When it comes to my own intuition

I am not as stupid as I look.

 

I am not angry with you

For not understanding this part,

Go fiddle with some financial issues

These are my matters, I am the heart.

 

REASON WITH THE HEART               PART TWO

Reason:
Shatter your illusion causing more confusion
Don’t be another’s stepping stone,
The strength in the power of my intellect
Can put you back up on the throne.

What is at the heart of your phobia?
It must be a flaw in your biological drive,
No worries, a minor chemical imbalance
In the long run you will survive.

I have attributes you can never acquire
Without me you cannot evolve,
Forget about this concept of desire
Your problems it will never solve.

Heart:
With such comments I will now neglect you
You cannot change the energy in my mood,
I would never want your negative qualities
Be gone before I get rude.

It’s your fallacy to think you have insight
And I don’t appreciate that pun,
If it will make you disappear
Then go ahead and think you have won.

I can offer intrigue, love, and passion
And infect others with my charm,
At the point that I go numb
Is when I let you protect me from harm.

I wish to hear only your diminished breath sounds
My therapy occurs when you don’t speak,
I cannot describe and you cannot imagine
The pain left by this love’s streak.

I need vital tenderness you cannot provide
Your abrasive harness makes me weak,
Take your magnifying lens off my trauma
I can tell you the prognosis---it is bleak.



REASON WITH THE HEART               PART THREE

Heart:
You put the worst into its own contempt
The mind is a terrible thing to use,
Always highlighting the agony 
That stands at the forefront of abuse.

Your views parallel the cruel world
That finds many ways to judge,
Impacts the heart which then enhances
An obligation to hold a grudge.

I speak of the heart in third person so
You can understand it is me we are discussing,
Stay focused on your own needs
Set me free from your neurotic fussing.

Reason:
I know you well
Your love is eager and ambitious,
But towards the object of your affection
I am impatient and suspicious.

It will never promote your well being
Only internal rage leading to disease,
Then slow progression of it
To see what other symptoms it can squeeze.

Love is all about taking chances
Don't abandon it during despair,
If you give up on it completely
Your good parts will also lose flair.

Heart:
Are you my master against self murder?
Who assigned me to your care?
You need not take responsibility
For a burden that's not your affair.

I can unintentionally destroy our host
A lot faster than you,
Thoughts can always be fabricated
But what she is feeling is true.

Reason:
You require ample supplies of nutrients and oxygen
To maintain your optimal zest,
Your chambers smile at clear arteries
Never pausing to rest.

A healthy heart rate is essential to your life
Without life you have nothing thereof,
You must keep fit for another that comes along
To show you the meaning of love.

You see, chemical messengers we call hormones
Can at times be very demanding,
It seems the endocrine gland is my enemy
I wish it a violent branding.

Heart:
There you go again with anatomy
You have conquered misunderstanding,
With all of this nonsense you are telling me
It is the brain that needs a crash landing.

Show me the "true meaning of love"
You speak of it as if you know,
I am sure some neurotransmitters now
Are conspiring in this uneven flow.

Each hour I suffer a little bit more
Into that little a lot gets packed,
Until my emotion eats itself alive
Because it refuses to recognize this fact.

Imagine emotional death
As part of infinity's cruelest magic
Magnify this thought a million times
It's that tragic.

That mutual craze kept me happy and serene
The rate of my beats could not drop,
Enjoyed the phases and everything in between
Now all it wants to do is stop. 



REASON WITH THE HEART               PART FOUR

 

Reason:

A little rational thought

Can bring confidence to your battered depression,

I will discipline this person once caught

Teach them a thing or two about oppression.

 

In reality this person doesn't love you

It is obvious from the neglect that you receive,

I cannot feel but even I know love

Doesn't abandon a heart about to bleed.

 

The immediate focus should be your will

All its irregularities have come to light,

Objective sources can instill the skill

To have practical predictions by your sight.

 

Disconnect from your separation anxiety

Rather than struggling to cultivate its power,

You must come to grips with reality

Your strength is declining by the hour.

 

Heart:

Rational thinking is overrated

My instincts will imprison this mind,

Can the existence of my love be admitted?

Truth is the heart’s burden to find.

 

Remember a wise man can understand more

About a concept not yet known,

Than one who proves a theorem

Which is thereafter overthrown.

 

Imagine this body we are attached to

Tripped and fell on the asphalt,

With vision obscurements and open sores

Drenched from head to toe with bath salt.

 

Do you know about pouring salt on an open wound?

The insanity from it's pain’s curse?

Well the emotional half works the same way

Except the rotting of your body a hundred times worse.

 

There are two codependent hearts involved here

Pumping blood reciprocally when together,

If you detach one from the other

No life left, not even bad weather.


I must follow internal instructions

Retrieved from the most delicate place,

No long verbiage-filled obstructions

I would consider it priceless if you grant me some space.

 

The force of this emptiness left in me

Decimates my immune system without care,

If logical thinking is to win me

That is an even bigger scare.

 

So please do not insist on a recovery

Even if you think you can heal me,

Whether or not you accept it

This loss is the one that will kill me.

 


ENDLESS MOMENT                 PART ONE

 

These moments when you capture me with your eyes

Consume my lifetime of reflection,

Where the pleasant discomfort of it lies

Is where its beauty humiliates perfection.

 

Our love began with your smile

And grew with my nourishing kiss,

Being rapidly reinforced meanwhile

Even the envy of bliss is jealous of this.

 

The ways you divert our energy

When you shyly turn your body in defense,

I can get you to the point where you are comfortable

With all this electricity you sense.

 

This substance and its prosperity

We must believe in now if ever,

Anything I give you with its sincerity

Forms the basis of our every endeavor.

 

Let our fantasy get out of hand

Our life's most powerful magnifying lens,

Our tranquil eagerness in flight about to land

We can anticipate then prolong its suspense.

 

The palm of your hand feels so good

Thrillingly pressed up against mine,

If for no other reason at all

Than just to generate the next line.

 

A renewed interest in every intricate element

That takes my ambition a full day to observe,

The beauty of it far from perfection

That my hands will labor to preserve.

 

The memory generated by this moment

Outweighs any risk by far,

Should the dynamics of losing you become an issue

These images will sadly add another scar.

 

I want you to imagine my reaction to regret

Before this extreme event occurs,

If we are forced to part you can bet

Your reaction to be paralyzingly worse.

 

Whether we would cause the loss or not

Inappropriate scrutinizing would burst,

Our hearts' cores erased on the spot

Leaving our everyday irrationalities cursed.

 

When the sinking feeling registers

With our “keep in touch” phrase,

When our silent words become slurs

And our vision a depressed gaze.

 

When both of us are forced to see

Depression smirk and raise a toast,

As what you fear the most

Makes your whole body its host.

 

When our future encounters

Are only shallow grins,

When our contemplative harmony

No longer plays its strings.

 

With worn out veins and tear stains

You figure it's just another abandoned face,

What's worse, my next forced interaction with another

Would only widen the hole in my heart's place.

 

The only betrayal from me would be

Writing your name in my hand,

Pulling the knife's blade through its center

Suffering every detail of its strand.

 

A handful of cloned emotion

Your sadness is a prerequisite to my pain,

You see I could never tolerate

The cruel tragedies of its reign.

 

Can’t you see what you mean to me?

Your lottery ticket is my heart,

Suddenly my heart’s flair is debris

That our goodbye instantly blows apart.

 

There is no evidence of this potential death

But in order to limit its risk today,

This moment cannot end hold onto my hand

Everything else the world can whisk away.

 

I have to be a little crazy

It keeps me from going insane,

I refuse every existence outside of your eyes

Around them there is nothing to gain.

 

It takes a single moment of realization

To reinforce a hundred reasons in my mind,

Why our emotional routine has become an investment

Why this single moment it will always find.

 

Why I understand suffering to the fullest

When I am without you for a whole day,

Why practical realities are the cruelest

Laughing at me every time you can't stay.

 

All of our built up assumptions

Are gaining momentum in assessment,

What will lure this grand transition?

Toward the ultimate emotional investment.

 

Your heart will not keep its normal rhythm

Now that my love has crawled up inside,

Consuming you with its pride

In its existence you can confide.

 

Through my writings you know you are my soul mate

I do my best to capture how you feel,

I hope from the silent love you give me

You have a million more words for me to steal.

 

I am the only one you can't quite handle

My presence alters the way you breathe,

The flame will never flicker on our candle

Everything you want I need.


 

ENDLESS MOMENT                 PART TWO

 

Our famous moment is indefinitely short

We have to extend into a part two,

Does this mean the first part is over

Defining this continuation we construe?

 

In our first moment of complexity

Do you remember the details of your feelings?

Take the layers and peel them back

What's left is what you are stealing.

 

Endless, never ending

What does this really mean?

Could something be true if it is pending?

Or will it just remain our dream.

 

Our dream, that looks at life like a pair of dice

Scared to risk what is at stake,

It builds a glass dome around our paradise

Waiting anxiously for it to break.

 

It’s like ripping up a lottery ticket

As misfortune plays its cruel game,

It’s like working for it your whole life

Then throwing away all the fame.

 

Imagine having it all

What an incredible notion,

But being deprived of the one thing

That would set it all into motion.

 

Imagine you and I

During our endless moment,

Then suddenly you open your eyes

To realize you no longer own it.

 

When all of my emotional distress

Tries hard to reconcile

What distance will do to its stress

How sorrow adds that extra mile.

 

We must bring the past into the present

Push the present into the past,

Create some memories in between

Ones that make sense when they last.


Explore an area we have never tapped before

Is there something I overlooked?

A couple of humble requests I implore

Can your heart ever be overbooked?

 

When this moment ends the same one must begin

To reinforce everything we know,

Our delight will lead the way

Every segment of it will grow.

 

If I say forever

Will you care for a minute?

This endless moment

I can live ten lifetimes in it.

 

I cannot stop this ideal love

The truth is what is indeed,

We can stretch this moment with greed

Until it captivates our most basic need.

 

Even if I lose you

Please stay a little longer,

The impostors of the future

Will only make your image stronger.

 

Every time I say your name

I smile like never before,

Then withhold myself for a while

So later I can smile some more.

 

I say your name again thereafter

To bring my joyful tears more laughter,

Scripting every line for you without a doubt

You will instantly recognize the drafter.

 

As I record my thoughts and decisions

It will be easy to review,

As I pull out perfect inspiration

From your every imperfect cue.

 

Perhaps you find this entertaining

And think what about you keeps me hanging,

Before I met you love shied away

And now it enjoys assertiveness training.

 

I will compose a third endless moment

If you would only stay awhile,

If you can bare it, I will merit

All of your beauty from a single smile.

 

ENDLESS MOMENT                 PART THREE

If it takes me a half hour to write this
How long will your attention concede it?
If it takes me a lifetime to fight this
Will your emotions exceed it?

Yes, a lifetime is all I ask for
A lifetime of your smiles,
That I can see and feel
Between temporary miles.

If you give me a signal that might miss
Will you take time to repeat it?
If my interpretation guides our bliss
Will you hesitate to lead it?

All that is meant to be
Is introducing us to its plan,
Conquering you and me
As fate maneuvers our attention span

Now that you've felt the heaven
We pulled our paradise through,
A little fear of loss
Is convincing you too.

Should our journey end
What will I do then?
I promise you this one thing
I will never write again.

I love you more than....
I will not say how much,
An unworthy disgrace it would be
To quantify its quality as such.

The only true love
Is the one that suffers to realize its own existence
As long as I am the only one
With main access into your soul's persistence.

Touch the top of my hand
Another image to engrave in my mind,
Adding to the cherished few
Flashbacks I can always find.

Whatever true beauty is
You are the core of its basis,
Whatever true love needs to exist
It absorbs from our embraces.

In our perfect world
I will always see the way,
From this vantage point
My love will never stray.

Where the day's usual forced activities
Are suddenly ignored,
As the focus becomes our festivities
Where your love soars much adored.

A whirlwind of enchantment
As the moment lasts it is winning,
Leaving room for passionate kisses
Next to the uncontrollable grinning.

I can stare all night
At the serenity you portray,
Through the world's mirage we have sight
Not even poetry can ever convey.

I am overwhelmed with words
That try to capture our desire,
I can write our passion on paper
That cannot wrap up our fire.

What if I got severely burned?
Then stood under boiling water,
This feeling in a pleasureful way
Is ten thousand times hotter.

Whatever form this exploration takes
However many pieces within my heart breaks,
Your affection is requested in excess
You I will never try to possess.

Don't ever end the day
With the words see you whenever,
Because then I start counting minutes
And what those minutes will sever.

I am happy that serenity will stay
Whether you give me love or despair,
To me you are heaven's array
Your attention is the growth of my care.



MUSE

 

My ultimate goal in life

Your someone too good to be true,

Give the above words loaded meaning

Scold the dull out of the old and the new.

 

I am glowing with a revelation

I hold it in my hands,

An ability to oversee

What no one else understands.

 

To become enlightened

You must feel my entire glow,

Don’t look upon it and comment

Just sit in silence and know.

 

When you make all your mistakes

I will never say I knew it,

Although I foresaw the stumble

I will always praise you through it.

 

Your motions make my heart explode

When you bowed down you lit a fuse,

I am rose petals for you to hold,

As always I am your muse.

 

Protect me from my love for love

Show me what is really real,

Something to see when I glance above

The times I feel the need to kneel.

 

Erect a double protected fort

To block out the enemy’s friend,

If you cure all evils of that sort

Within me the wrong you can mend.

 

My constant tendencies are selfless

Will you give back what I lend?

What about when I am empty and helpless?

How much on me will you spend?

 

My love for love loves you

Do you understand the concept of free?

Whomever you befriend with your views

Following behind will be me.

REACH BEYOND THE BEYOND 

 

You say the sky is the limit

I look beyond the universe,

You say to fly high is to live it

Being grounded at all to me is a curse.

 

You say always try something new

I search for the hidden treasure,

You give a hundred and ten percent

My efforts cannot be measured.

 

You say kindness should be spread

I have sacrificed myself to all,

You pass advice onto others

For the worlds troubles it is I who they call.

 

You say always be in control

When I am not I still get my way,

You acquire friends to stand by your side

Even against their own will they stay.

 

You say learn from your mistakes

I label everything a success,

You try to maintain your composure

I make a mockery out of stress.

 

You say the mind should not be wasted

I am creating as I sleep,

You give away some possessions

I have no materials left to keep.

 

You say conquer the tall mountains

I aim higher than my own desire,

You say be content with the colors of the rainbow

I will always see the arch from up higher.


 

RANSOM NOTE

 

If what you did does not bring you bad karma

I will play out a scenario in my mind,

Perhaps a bad motive on my part

Know there are worse ways I can be unkind.

 

Will you bother with the loudness of your guilt?

Ignore it and your conscience it will grind,

Master a delicate balance with an apology

Forgiveness will still be exhausting to find.

 

Why are you blaming my feelings?

This is not a self-generated sorrow,

Why are you taming my healing?

Slowing down this agony you made me borrow.

 

My heart is crazy enough to reconcile

If you accept this ransom note from its pain

Follow its instructions carefully

Channels of enchantment you will gain.

 

Please send me your inner energies

And focus them on the images in my mind,

To empower my visualization of our future

And carve it into every dream I can find.

 

You inquired about my constant hunger

It is insanely hungry for your touch,

Only if I am a motive for your affection

Does the smallest gesture mean so much.

 

Follow alongside my dreams and you will

Find pleasure in the kindness that unfolds

Remain confident in the direction it takes you

And you will receive everything that it molds.

 

My internal world throbs with anticipation

As you warm every ounce of it from the cold,

The beams from our burning candle captures

More than its single flame can hold.

 

Remember when you have the slightest doubt

Always pleasantly surprised thereafter,

I am not trying to posses any part of you

I will do and be anything for your laughter.


All I ask for is a single kiss

I must convince my persistence to be bold,

All of your doubt enriched by my bliss

That every aspect of your soul will behold.

 

Lend me a moment without hesitation

I will build a life around you made of gold,

A single embrace to state my case

By this preview alone you will be sold.

 

Pick any endeavor to pursue

I hold a sincere interest in your success,

An eager massive awareness among my senses

A simple pure love with layers very complex.

 

You overwhelm my fantasies everyday

As usual yesterday you appeared,

Come down the red carpet leading to my heart

For you the runway is always cleared.

DEDICATION TO OBSESSION

 

The possible faults that lie ahead of us

Seem to be weighing heavily on your mind,

Think of what is opposite heaven

Our future is not of that kind.

 

Tell me is it mere space you need

In order to confirm the appeal?

Take as long as you need to heal

Just knowing that you care gives me zeal.

 

I am not a bit nervous

We are more than prepared to take flight,

There is real perception here feel its pressure

A slight uncertainty it is trying to fight.

 

At the highest level of luck's power

Will you be overwhelmed by it all?

When misery tries to stall the hour

Will you abduct gravity from our fall?

 

How would you experience life without me?

Would you welcome your last sigh?

Would the foundation for your fondest hopes

Be shattered by your motive to die?

 

A simple question but a complex thought

My heart eagerly awaits your reply,

Would you return to all that you sought?

Before you and I knew we could fly?

 

We know each other the most when we don't speak

Neither of us is a prize seeker,

That magnetic essence between us radiates

Somehow describing it makes it seem weaker.

 

Is it the duty of fate to keep us separated?

Using its most prestigious device?

I will not let go of anything anticipated

Only listen to your heart's true advice.

 

Conventional wisdom is rarely right

When it comes to the powers of love,

It just highlights the humor in it

Babble with analogies to clouds above.

 

What kind of reality will emerge?

It is for us to make this choice,

All these inquiries just strengthen my urge

I search for that intimate link in your voice.

 

My compassion for you surpasses ordinary care

Even interested in your thoughts when you are bored,

Any slight attention my way is fair

Just say you will never leave me ignored.

 

Would you want me beyond the vanity of it all?

Those times when I look second best,

Do you understand me beyond the sanity of it all?

My intellect with its internal pest.

 

Not knowing is a worse cruelty

Than overcoming disappointment,

If this lesson turns out a curse

I still don't regret where my joy went.

 

Our flame will not die out

Face its consumption it will not stray,

It is my legacy to pursue what it's all about

Decide to either vanish or stay.

 

I obsessively pursued you

Before my obsession even knew,

If I obsess on this obsession long enough

Perhaps you will reveal your obsession too.

 

Without you I wear an invisible strait jacket

Each minute making my self-assessment stranger,

I need you to come interrupt this sleep deprivation

Pull me away from my self-made danger.

 

Nothing is black and white as they say

Especially not the colors of our vision,

But now that we have conquered the gray

How about we blend all the shades with precision.

 

You cannot stretch my love to its limit

My passion for you will last longer,

As time manipulates the infinite

These feelings only make our luxury stronger.

 

I am exceptionally passionate today

Look out now it’s contagious,

In our progression towards paradise

Insatiably tempted to skip stages.

 

Bravely letting go of your fears

Will make more room for my dreams,

Bring truth to the gleam in our eyes

Our reality will become all that it seems.

 

ATTRACTION IN LOVE

Where does our attraction lie?

When we are opposites in kind,

Where does this attraction lie?

This is what we must find.

You don't care for the one famous person

I hold the utmost fondness for,

Some endeavors that excite me

You would consider a chore.

Where does this attraction lie?

I need a little time to think,

Where has it planted its spy?

I am on its brink.

What needs to happen by chance

For this attraction to increase its score?

How else would you like to dance?

Show me I am craving more.

Your mood can destroy then be joy

In its moment-to-moment swings,

I take fancy in how my laid back nature

Calms down the waves it brings.

Opposites attract as they say

But where does our attraction lie?

The chemistry will forever sway

Between our every meeting and sigh.

I love how we are opposites

Even opposite of popular belief,

If opposites attract and we do in fact

Then my dreams foresee the opposite of grief.

I have an obsessive fear of the norm

In which you claim to play a big part,

Believe me, to average you don't conform

Where did our attraction start?

Let’s regress back to the beginning

When it caught us both by surprise,

I must say the attraction is winning

Enslaving my heart to your eyes.

Come help me lift off its disguise

Untangle it and point it towards the skies,

Until we locate the source of this attraction

Misery will continue to taunt our satisfaction.

We need to dream of its existence

Analyze its persistence,

Make long-term commitments

Until all this just spits sense.

So dream a daydream, dream a night dream

Dream within our insanity,

Dream today's theme, dream of a light stream

Everything you are and can be.

Dream of our long discussions

Just lying side by side,

Especially of our attraction

And where it might reside.

There are no factual issues

That would prevent our dreams from living,

So our attraction can breathe within it

And happily messenger what it’s giving.

Always calculating your moves

Pause after anticipated pause,

Operating on a different level than the rest

Give it access and it will give you a cause.

Will forever add more for your taking

But never take when you give,

Should this end my heart would be breaking

Away from the life it needs to live.

I need a life

That forgives me for not living,

In it this attraction wants it all

And for the all to be compassionate in its giving.

It wants to avoid
The void from your avoiding,
To be persistently overjoyed
Your presence constantly redeployed  
 
                                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                        

Spray love repellent on everyone else

I am in it for the long haul,

Something as high as heaven can never fall

A reality not grounded at all.

I feel very fortunate just receiving your maybe

As long as you never say never,

Our future is lighting the torch to fit

The palms of every passionate endeavor.

As harp players start to gather

Blessing their existence in our story,

But warning us as we climb the ladder

That illusion might break in its glory.

I have no fear of this

So stop all of your shy fussing,

About the intricate parts of bliss

Our attraction insists on discussing.

Everyone is someone else's fantasy

Except for the two of us,

I dream about the way you dream about me

And in reality that is a plus.

I cannot count the endless times

We just sat starring across our lunch,

I cannot count the silent conversations

Little by little our love becomes a bunch.

Every moment labeled as profound

This substance, its value and its grace,

Bound by this love we have crowned

That our attraction is trying to trace.

I know you are attracted it is true

What more do you need to see through?

Here in my kiss is your clue

That what is brewing is long overdue.

So give me the opposite view

My attraction believes it is you,

If we invert these two lines above

The source of our attraction becomes love.

Now that love itself is aware

Recognizing what is there,

Our attraction gives extra care

Its gifts it will not spare.

A cold heart wrapped in hot air
The outcome can only be rare,
Without you my feelings are bare

Dress them again with your glare.


It will always be your stare

There is nothing to compare,

Give me something you can share

I need the after effects of your flair.

If you lie down next to me today

Will we have two separate dreams to thread?

Or will love manifest its way

Into one dream from all that we’ve said.

Infusing red into everything gray

As we happily touch hands in bed,

My infected heart will never be okay

From the love this attraction has spread.

What about me keeps you around?

I want you to have all of my soul,

What’s left of the discovery we have found?

The raw sorcery of true loves’ control.



PASSION

 

If I am dreaming at the moment

I do not wish to awake,

I can reassure myself of being certain

When I feel the passion at stake.

 

This is an organized chaos

In which we must have blind faith,

I hope our practice is authentic

Because regrets always arrive too late.

 

Is the physical world an illusion?

Is our attraction a fact?

Then according to traditional psychology

I should have a profound impact.

 

I am a playful ambiance

To your most meticulously crafted desire,

Carve out an image you aspire to

The spell I cast will lift it even higher.

 

My attention is never elsewhere

Serving every inch of your being,

As your fantasies correspond to my gestures,

Your double vision will be freeing.

 

I can stretch this passion beyond your perception

As my devotion to you defies time,

Always excited about our consistency

Will never fall from this high climb.

 

Once our playfulness starts

It continues until the sun rises,

When the sun thereafter falls

I am once again full of surprises.

 

You will be gracefully ringed with flowers

As the romantic glow in me shyly begins to share,

When your rich vibrant smile strikes back

It carves out and perfects my stare.

 

Petals between the folds of your blanket

A continued expression of my love,

A steamy private party to follow

Ignited by your vision filled shove.

 

My sentiments are forthcoming

To enhance and extend every need,

Mention something once a thousand times I hear it

In giving you love I have greed.
