Lovely

For me she's lovely
The opposite of all that I could be
For me she's the only
Source of trust that matches me
When I look for compromise
I only look within her eyes
I tell her I love thee
In turn she stays strong and trusts in me
At first it was just me
I thought all alone against the World
Then soon I struggled
I pictured her near
Envisioned my perfect girl
But it was she, from energy
That was with me from the start
So when I don't know me
I ask her opinion because she's my spark
Love is a bounty
I nearly took off without a look
A fool in the desert
Creating mirages with second looks
What fun are all the games although
When you don't see your half opposed
Keeping you lovely
Keeping him calm
With such repose.

F'our Gemstone

The exception to the rule
Which a mortal eye can’t see
Is deep beneath a mountain
Washed over by the sea
Where the air and sun collide
Sparks a fire from the tide
Marveling at a gemstone
Born of nature’s pride
A Ruby is what they call it
A name that cannot be
A Ruby is trapped by letters
And a gleam is what I see
An Emerald is green with envy
A vice which one implores
A Diamond is a prism
Trapped by nature’s floor
A Sapphire emanates each color
Always shifting from its own
A Ruby is a mountains Hearth
Carried from Burma stone
And when the Sun and Ruby collide
All that – was – is – will be shown
Both blood and Heaven’s radiance
Has assured us what was known.

Solitude

So tonight I'll lay here in sweet soft bliss
The kind I hope you still not miss
Although the day was hard it's true
You still got through it, yeah just you
You think you need that someone new
Instead just see the lovely you
When you cry tears I cry them too
Maybe I'll keep that between me and you
I will not call I will not text this solitude is what fits you best
I will empower you to be strong
Make you face that you were not wrong
If you were so let it be
Forgiveness is the greatest key
Still I think you think too harsh
Upon the future, Upon the marks
I will draw your composure
I will write you a lesson
Let the pain take over
Let it become your blessing
It lasts only moments
Then the soul will resume
Take over the hurt and sew you anew
But if you continue to chase the disease
Or run from the pain that most do with ease
Full circle it will come
Or hide deep below
Waiting to get you
When your guard is most low
Take this from me I hope these words help
They come from a spirit who's been through hell's depths
Sometimes I think the soul likes to see
How far it can take you
Until the body agrees
That only God matters
The rest is just ease
All else will be taken
Until it's shown it's just he
And the solitude was just fitting
Justifying your needs.

Twin Sized Bed

Our souls' defeat rested in this bed
These thoughts so loud that they could wake the dead
Wonder appears is this something new
A simple trial a simple verdict too
When I sleep I wonder if you feel this too
That part of me you claimed was part of you
If the queen creates court with too much room
The king must defend with castles too
Freedom is battle, an odyssey
Reclaim what's yours and set the captives free
Maybe not with faith but with luck you'll see
Time's not so bad if you tempt yourself to be
The part of you, you were before you met me
Although we're twins in soul thought energy
It's the pain that you could do that will effect me
Time ticks down into the early morn
Hell's fury would not match your scorn
Yea I know you would not intentionally set fire to me
Intentions are null and void when emotions scorch synergy
On trial you won't have to worry
The World will satisfy
Right now these facts seem blurry
In two sides snow can fall in flurries
While the heat can warm the Hearthstone inside.

Who's in Bunker?

Who's in Bunker when the bombs drop thunder
What's the scene when the cells fall out the scene
Women and children suffer the cost of hollow abodes
Laughs earn money making heads roll
When is the time for the ice-age to cool the hurt
Where is the fear not here hungry eyes just stare
Why run when we can stare at the Sun
For energy for hope for manna our rope
Who's in Bunker?
You.

The Rose in the Woods

The rose in the woods stood little chance
Like the light from the sun hidden by the birch branch
It grew to coming age with a proud seeming-less glance
With smells that filled the air with sordid enchants
Sorted from all the common affairs
The rose knew it's place with beauty a dire affair
To grow so lovely using testing willing time
To guard it's careful petals with thorns from the spine
The rose in the woods stood little chance
Like the winds from the sea whispering soft heard demands
You see a plan was all the rose needed to go
So the plan was that it would sit there and grow
It would compete with the word gorgeous until the stars whined
That this competition was in vain and both intertwined
The thing about beauty that few often see
Is the mirror of truth time takes to decree
Then leaves it to be soft like the pollen hummed by the bee
Soon comes the enhancing strut liquid gold
Hot like a day filling the mold
As this cools off the rose beams back with the wind
To say from a seed I knew just who would win
Without the use of man made design interloping ruining divine state of mind
It grew and allowed a baby bit of dew upon it's skin which renewed
The crystalline joy of red employing man's own sustenance as it's envoy
Then sat there and said with your senses I intend to compel
With your heart you listened with your soul your spirit glistened
With your mind you tried to fathom how on earth rapture became disposition
The rose in the woods with beauty just smiled
Then let it be known it was man who would judge not father time.

Spring Senses Much Keener

We danced sweet dreams upon the chest of our love
Ate strawberry things as a devotion a dove
I placed you on an alter forever to stare
You pierced me with words that forever lingered near
I signed your heart with an artists' inception
I caught a part of your love through closer inspection
Direction we looked for but found only new
A new fragrance and essence between me and you
You took my stories and made them your plans
As I sat back and brought in just some of your demands
I knew what I looked for would always be true
I knew it because true was what I saw within you
A chance to see clear through the brightest color of eyes
Placed in this World with your goddess design
You signed everything with your heart and demeanor
As I laid back and watched you spring senses much keener.

The Cold Part

So long through this cold part of the World
Barren wasting away deep down dimmed joy
For too long has tundra spanned the floor
No place of reception stars eyed decor
So much nothing inside mass weight of void
Transferred to cold desert and employed
Soft breath hung in arid silence behold
Majesty enduring travesty
I stepped down a presence reaffirmed more
No good in land with nothing restored
So much for a vision reaching a shore
Shortened tides breaking on rocks seized lore
Snow leaves canvas white picture what's in store
A time for grasping yet fingers sore
So much for blame when it lies within me
An exercise to exorcise hope
Darkness never allows light simply be
So long to this cold part of the World.

Seacrown

I take you to the side
Stare pass the tears as they subside
I try my speech
To best beseech
Cornering your sorrow so
I try to share a smile
To let you know
I rode that tide
It pulled me in
Ripped me thin
Until I swam
Parallel to the shore
This ocean can be calm
This water can break seas
Sometimes you swim
Sometimes you float
On your back
So you can breath
Just as you feel you're drowning
Comes some hope with light resounding
To let you know
You weren't let go
Just extended to new founding
So if a tear trickles down
Try your best to love that frown
Remember your most brilliant crown
That was yours to own and is with you now.

Psyche

Boyfriend boy toy plaything you'd draw
Help me see why this worth is man tall
I would come to you with seasons grace
Transitioning in with slow love's face
Not that Cupid does not stick us all
Or guide Psyche's back through under Worlds walls
One would suppose this unyielding gift
Given from child and adorned adulterous shift
Would make us seem proud as daughters last kiss
Or scream from the mountains as son looks over cliffs
Digress I digress this seems to attest
To bliss felt so easy yet to the sullen hard felt
Heart fleeting demeanor peeks interests much keener
Opens the goblet wider and beckons the dreamer
A more inspired view then the sweet face of Venus
A human no more but a Goddess between us.

Fell in Love with the World

Fell in love with a girl
Heart beat twice
Skipped once
Still breathing
Yeah she's in love with the World
Took one fine look
And I saw completion
Lingered once complete she strikes
Her smile and style just so so deepening
Inside the Châteaux of life
We stood by the fire
It drew us in so secretly
Might I tell you this twirl
Of rose colored eyes
And petal covered floors
Springing forth with life
A measure of love garnished In life's light
A sign lit up and exposed our decency
And as I turned to the World
My bones carried over a transmuted plea for me
My eyes were blinded by the suns' plight
Bright line of light
The sun was setting
Onto the clouds so sweetly
Fell in love with this World
Spinning us both around
By the heels discreetly
Now your in love with the Whirl
Tilting on edge let the crash
Clamor conveniently
Complete me.

Covered Eyes

How can I look at your eyes
Knowing you wear your disguise
This palace was compromise
Instead it shook with surprise
This has happened before
We were split from the core
Two halves wanting more
Both diffused finding doors
Sacrifice one and double the score
Triple the madness to feel what's in store
In the fore mentioned breath calm was restored
Then a five sided die was cast to the floor
Cover the covenant and dash the books in the ashes
Sulfur will fill the eyes with the flare of the matches
And what will lead me back to you
Is only a particle I swear I once knew
Circling a point upon a curved moon
Unravel the dream and undo the sleep too
And when we awake the colors will seem new
Allowing ascent to a place experience deemed true.

Birds

Birds in the sky flight by azure cries
Tears flowing by like clouds tempest through time
Be my demise ill give my reprise
As we look to the skies birds eye to eye
Birds making love the falcon the dove
They intertwine one watches one loves
Love in the air clearing fallen fears
Few understand but still take a dare
Love bleeding to the ground red dripped down
Pricked by the thorns led by the crown we frowned
I love you now and I'll love you then
I love you always just how I intend.

Beloved

Beloved,
I come to you with open embrace
Of hoping to catch a glimpse
Of the words that you taste
To hark full heartedly upon your loving embrace
And touch you softly
With the ravens twilight upon my mantle place
Evermore, evermore, by thine eye
I managed not to see thee
Evermore

And as I lay here next to rose filled glamor
I test my words true
With hope I'm not making a clamor
But still sweet child I ask what's the matter
For you only you do I write in this manner
Abode in a manor, like a prince in a cage
Told by the serpent that I'd best behave
Downtrodden betroth misbehaved and miss told
Oh the weary flesh keeps warmth but soul cold

Test I
Test fate
Yes we'll call it a date
Who ever loses come back
To the drawing board within
With sin
Toss the bin
We've been here before
Dashed hope through the window
Spilled life on the floor
These texts
I pray bring you back to my door
Forevermore,
Entrusted to a heart that is sore.
