Heal

Sometimes I feel like
I want to heal
the world
Sometimes it seems like
I can do anything
But then sometimes
I realize
that I’m human
and I can’t do
anything.
I lie awake in my bed
curled up like an infant
wanting to leave
it all
behind
I cry out to you
but I’m not sure
you hear
I want you to hold
me
but I’m not sure
you care
I’m shaking
now
I’m not awake
now
but my sleep
doesn’t offer me
peace
Dreams are nightmares
a focusing of my
thoughts
into a light beam
I don’t want
to see.

Anywhere But Here

Confused,

my head
            spins
my heart
            stops
and no
            matter
where I
            am
I’m never
            where
I want
            to be

Inside Out

haunted
by
a memory
of a
place
and person
I knew
some time
ago
and yet
when I
close my
eyes and
think
about
her
I can feel
her
inside my
soul
searching
for her place
in
the outside
world

Arrival

come here
my darling
let me
            kiss your
            neck
and let me
            touch you
and make you
            feel wet
does my breath
            excite you
warm upon
            your ear
can you feel
            my craving
when I pull
            you near
Touch me
            as I feel you
hold me close
            and let me
            get inside you
call out my
            name
as I work
            to satisfy you
hold it back
            for just a moment
longer
until we arrive
            together
at the place
            we both feel warm
and when it’s
            finally over
lets go back there
            again

Before You

the man
you pledged
your life to
doesn’t seem to
care
And so I listen
to your stories
and think of
all the ways
I could make
you smile
and feel the way
you should
and so I’m left
to wonder
when you might see
the path
that lies
before you
Does it lead
to me?

How Much

Tomorrow could
be different
if tonight
a wish comes true
My world could
feel brighter
a lesser tint of blue
Your smile could
warm me
and love would
be a friend again
the one I lost
forever
before I found
you

Faded Memory

Young couple
in each others
arms
listen to the
waves
and feel the
warm breeze
Remember
when you’re older
how it felt this day,
knotted in each other
the future so
far away
The kisses will feel
different,
the looks won’t
be the same
but the ocean
will still be here -
its memories
never
fade
