The LOVE

15 Tuesday Jan 2013

Tags

, , , , , , , , ,

love with hearts
Love, baby the love

That’s what keeps us
Here longer than we should be
Ever near much stronger than it would be

Love, baby the love
Only love can make us all we could be
Void us out sometimes we ponder, should we?
Each annoyed can we break up? We ask how could we?

…And even if we did, how would we
Not get back together?
In our hub it’s crazy enough
But we weather through whatever
Because of the love, baby the love

“The Sensation Of Your Kiss”

02 Sunday Sep 2012

Tags

, , , , , , , ,


Needing the sensation
Of Your kiss
Was the spark that sparked all this

I’d been blessed but felt no bliss
More or less my mind was made up – to only just exist

But being lost in the sensation of your kiss
Exposed what I had missed
Though it was always at my fingertips
The touching of our lips
Enabled me to come to grips – with the passion in our midst
Receive your love, give you love…

…And now my tender heart insists
I live for the sensation of your kiss

“How Do I Reach You?”

27 Friday Jul 2012

, , , , , , , , , ,

H ow do
I reach you?

H ow do I start to move on and begin
O pening up to open you up
W hen closure hasn’t come to an end

D o I reach you when you break?
O r beseech you when you bend?

I can meet you in the middle, but what happens after then?

R oads can only go so far
E ven I am not invincible
A nd I’m not gonna say you are
‘C ause that would not be sensible
H ow do I learn a new lesson to teach you?

U-turn & return, tell me how do I reach you?

“With A Love Like Yours”

10 Thursday May 2012

Tags

, , , , , , , , , ,

Helpless I was indeed helpless
Until now
Rejoicing I am stronger because you
Touched my life somehow

And a love
Like yours
Lets my spirit soar

Guides me to a world
Of peace I
Never knew before
Everything is possible…

…With a love like yours

i should have said “I Love You” more

02 Wednesday May 2012

Tags

, , , , , , , ,

I should have said, “I love you” more

So many times I could have
Held you in my arms and
Opened up – I really should have
Used the time more preciously
Looking back from here I would have
Done whatever I did not – now that I know I could have

How could time just slip away?
And time again my heart ignore
Virtually every thing
Each part of me is sorry for…

…My number one regret is
I should have said, “I love you” more

“my SECOND skin”

30 Monday Apr 2012

Tags

, , , , , , , ,

You are my second skin
One with me – we mesh
Underneath the soul within

…Far beyond where there is flesh

And you are my next of kin
Rarest of the rare –
Extent of your loss, what then?

…More than my heart could bear 

My second skin and my first love
You’re what I thirst love in the inner me…

…And my burst of higher energy 

Savoring you protects me when
Earnest devotion begins to believe
Companionship is rejecting a friend – I grieve
Once emotion is worn on my sleeve
Not that you’d abandon ship of this I can be sure
Destiny stitched the layers weaved… 

…There is nothing about us impure

So in this context we blend
Kindred spirits through & through
I see you as my second skin
Notably thicker to insulate me from a colder view…

…You breathe in me a warm second wind
And blow me away by you just being you

“A Net To Catch My Soul”

07 Saturday Apr 2012

Tags

, , , , , , ,

My life is a series of relationships
It queries at my fingertips
Life is always clearly in salvation’s grip
Even if I slip and it
Swallows me whole
There is a net to catch my soul
One not weary in the theory of relativity
Nor eerie in the sphere of its proclivity
Ever cheery when it’s near me in its starring role
Should I fall there’s a net…

…To catch my soul

“Think of YOU as Divine”

19 Monday Mar 2012

Tags

, , , , ,

Sometimes hair & make up are
Essential
Each is a piece that crafts your full potential

You can buy a new outfit
Or get a pedicure
Undergo procedures designed to
Reassure

It’s common to
Nip & tuck & tweak a little bit
Nix some of your hips & suck in
Each hump you fiddle with
Round the middle with

But it’s far better to
Ease your troubled mind
And build self-esteem
Under the butt you leave behind
Think of all
You can dream up…

…To beam up & shine
Remember the theme up
Is to first think of you as divine

“Knowledge Is Not Acknowledged Till It’s Shared”

20 Monday Feb 2012

Tags

, , , , ,

What is the point of wisdom?
If it stays inside your mind
Formal education
Equates to flying blind

Have you information
Underneath your hat un-bared?
See, knowledge is not acknowledged till it’s shared
But will your rush to judgment
Accuse a few book-smart
Not of thinking with their left brain, but
Deciding not to give in to their hearts?

Knowledge is not acknowledged till it’s shared
I’m aware that some are scarred and some are scared
Degrees of learning chart what you’ve confined
So what’s the point of learning…

…If it stays inside your mind?

“When A Mutually Exclusive Relay Shun Ship Sails Away”

15 Wednesday Feb 2012

Tags

, , , , , ,

When a mutually
Exclusive relay shun ship sails away
Two hearts draw nearer on that day

My actions and
Yours no longer relay…

…The folly of one who shuns emotion’s display

We take an excursion into our souls
Hold tight then dismantle the life we know
In the height of submersion we fill our holes
So fully they start to overflow
To the point where a relationship
Lands at our lips & fingertips
Each of us comes to grips with that ultimate pie-in-the-sky…

…We spoon each other exclusively
And kiss what we shunned good-bye
