The LOVE

15 Tuesday Jan 2013

Tags

@tonyhaynes, Blog, Facebook, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Twitter, Writing

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

“How Do I Reach You?”

27 Friday Jul 2012

Tags

Facebook, Life, Love, Maya Angelou, Music, News, Poetry, Relationships, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Writing

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?

“The Rhythm Of A Better Life”

04 Wednesday Jul 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, Arts, Facebook, Love, Maya Angelou, Music, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Writing

I am without borders
Still within a trebled clef caused by this strife
Of living acapella
Lusting for the rhythm of a better life
As music seeks to strike a chord within my spirit
There is no major way for me to hear it
In isolation, how do I with my syncopated instrument
Orchestrate a sense of harmony
Not as one isolated incident…
…But as one with song that’s learned to dance with me

“Confessions Of A Soul Mate”

22 Friday Jun 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, Facebook, Life, Love, Maya Angelou, Music, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Soul, Twitter, Writing

Sometimes I bore you
Sometimes I stress you
I adore you
I would rather decompress you
I confess
You…
Are the soul mate
I have had visions of
You are my life
And I live for your love

“Sweet Words”

18 Monday Jun 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, @WriterPublisher, Art, Blog, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Writing

I gaze at you and the stars
I wonder why they don’t compare
You shine brighter than they are
You make me need you more than air

I breathe you in
Exhale you out
Receive you when
The rose buds sprout

All at once I softly sigh
You smiled again and caught my eye
Silly me what could I do?
I found sweet words and wrote a few

“my SECOND skin”

30 Monday Apr 2012

Tags

Acrostic, Facebook, Maya Angelou, Music, Poetry, Religion and Spirituality, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Writing

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

“You Are the Four Seasons Of My Life”

18 Sunday Dec 2011

Tags

Arts, Four Seasons, God, Online Writing, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Shopping


Y
ou are the four seasons
Of my life
Ultimate summer, fall, winter & spring
Reason I look for a glimmer of good
Embodied in what tomorrow may bring

As seasons change the concept is clear
Love goes in cycles while faithfully here
Love blossoms, it withers, sheds light to renew

4 Seasons and love are abundant in you

Sometimes it gets heated we snuggle we’re cold
Energy depleted we struggle on hold
And sometimes we greet it with smothered intent
Still how we treat it no
Other was meant
No further I went than my reasons led to
So my four seasons in life are …

…Resoundingly you

When You Fall In Love With You

03 Saturday Dec 2011

Tags

Facebook, Life, Maya Angelou, News, Poetry, Romance, Twitter, Writing

Falling in love with you
Ain’t always a no-brainer
Love of self is an empty container
Loosely based on a concept called “let it pour”

In this realm you
Notice a cup in need of so much more

Learning to fall in love with you enables you to
Open the handle of courage on your storage bin
Value self acceptance and
Excitedly pour it in

When you fall in love with you
In comes fulfillment to further link it
This is your elixir and it’s like
Heaven when you drink it

You in love with you, brings you
One step closer to the greatest love of all
Understanding God’s love and when you heed that call…

…You don’t catch yourself
You close your eyes & fall
