red eye thoughts

[january.14.2008.6:49pm.EST]


i could read our
love story in the
words the stars
wrote for us.

from up here,
thoughts of you
keep me secure
if this seatbelt
chose to give
way.

they held hands;
an old love was
hidden in their
palms yet i
didnt feel shut
out from it;
i want that for us:

a hand held love
that we maintain
to hold on to
through our lives
as time brings us
to our elderly ages.

my fear of flying
alone took flight
from my psyche as
i felt love gently
caress me...

even though you
werent there
holding my
hand.

sun rays warms
sunlit kissed arms
to loop loosely around
the frame of the lover
who stands in summers
embrace.

intimacy captured like
this causes thoughts to
linger on many
summer suns that have
set.

in their absence,
their presence is missed;
love filled memories
marquee across ones eyes
as the mind chooses to
allow itself to
reminisce.

summer is a soon
to dwindle lust as it
dies into the coldness
of a bitter winter that
bites at all had
heat.

my sensual plaything

i find solace as i rest
my face in between
the length of rich
chocolate pillars that
join to conceal the
valley where her
flavorful secrets
lie and lies were told
to mask my curious
passion that calls me
to venture here in the
shadows that our
sheets provide as guilt
bleeds over our two
bodies that tussle and
tease while nervous
hands caress chests
that heave and yet my
imagination lends me
this canvas to paint;


experience is what lacks.

moving...no, continuing

"...the cause seduces but the self-interest secures the deal..."
-robert greene


allowed your words were
to run licks on the lobes of
my ears,
to sleezily snare my minds
choice of analyzing said lies
yet I found myself in a space
in suspense waiting to eat
such fruit from seeds planted
by you.

never in doubt your talents reside,
but absent were the rewards.

my attention you have not;
ill be in the space where you so
long for me not to be.

the flush of excitement is over;
interest has flagged.

this time last year; same seen...

"forgive the urgency, but hurry up and wait"
-the fray


the day that rests
in between the past
and future sat by my side
waiting for you to join us
in bringing in new suns to
be put to sunset in another
year that'll cease to yield
time.

holding me at arms distance;
forever playing me close.

questions are never asked.
motives never questioned.
absence never interrupted.

'the lone wolf' you said,
but all wolves have a pack.

and from afar,
through distance,
in different loves,
beating in other hearts,










forever ill look after you.

genuinely green

"wow, you know what I just realized?
you're hella like one of my best friends..."
-Kaleb





green irises melt
into the brown
ones that I own.

laughs dance on the
rims of lips parting to
give way to such a
pure expression of how
calm,
at ease,
we are with one another.

unspoken words emerge
from behind loose tongues;
a familairity rests in our
silent nonverbal speech.

prior lessons of
self-protection are unlearned;
trust is born from the
solace you provide me.

you're teaching me friendship
at its best;
please remain genuinely green.

lies

[january.2.2008.10:15am]


held captive,
bound to my tongue
they remain in regards
of the capabilities they hold of
manifesting into pain destined
for permanancy upon ones
mistake of choosing vulnerability
as opposed to distrust.
theyre made of silk malice;
soft to the ears touch,
yet one fails to realize theyre
everything but.
their constant attempts
to be given as misleading
answers when questions are
asked is a struggle my conscience
suffers from because although the truth
rests in honesty,
youve made it sport for me to
see how easy it is for my words
to lie to you
