realistic, romantic, poet

I wish I were not such a romantic
talking to love
as if he existed
in my gaze
romantics are fools
with glasses that see
what they want
what they desire
what they seek
what they long to find.
Romantic poets
are even worse
they know
what they want
they can almost touch
the love of their heart
but never quite find
whats worse than a romantic poet?
a realistic romantic poet!
such as [...]

I see you there.

I see you there
you think you are hiding
but I see you
I just pretend
that I do not
I know you’re struggling
cause you refuse to ask for help
dope.
I am waiting only
for a small sigh
to escape
for a small sign
that you have acknowledged
that you are not
really
a character
in a movie
but a man
with blood and bone
smile and cheer
pain and fear
a heart that longs
despite [...]

silli

I gaze at the person in the mirror
she insists on sticking out her tongue
how juvenile
and silli
yes, I know it is spelled wrong
she likes to make people glare
she likes to challenge them
with thinking outside
that cardboard box
why is a rule always the rule…forever?
why am I not allowed
the luxury
of mi-spelled words?
why can’t I wear my purple socks
the way [...]

Lovers Challenge

I challenge you, my love
to take a chance on me
give that worrisome heart a flick
and tell it you will do
as you will do
for once obeying your heart
and not your head
I challenge you, my love
to find your bliss
where it lives
intellect can do so much for you
but for matters of the heart
intellect kills
and maimes
with doubt,
fear,
and worry
I challenge [...]

If Fate Had A Door

If fate had a door
I’d walk right through
and press my hand to yours.
I’d waste the hours
with you in the flowers
tasting the new morning dew.
Id let laughter rise
and cover your eyes
with Merriement, Giggles and Joy.
I’d last all daylight
without ferver or fight
just basking in the glow of your eye.
If fate had a door and a way to [...]

Without you

I miss you
though we have never met
your hand has never held mine
your kiss I have never felt
your eyes have never gazed
into mine
with affection
mirth
joy
need
love
without you
I am just here
alone
with things I wish I could share
smiles
giggles
twinkles
kisses
dreams
Without you
I am lost in thought
with no one to share them with
Without you I am missing
with no one to come and find me.
Without [...]
