Rush

I see you across the room
and butterflies fly -
I feel I know you well
and we've never even said hi...

Do you see me appreciate
the beauty you exude so well -
do you see me staring
hoping that you can't tell...

that I wanna know why
I wanna know you -
I wanna know if
you're drawn to me too...

when you smile my way
I wonder if it's for me -
when you look in my eyes
I wonder if you can see...

how you've taken all
my curiosity -
and put me in a daze
I never thought I would be...

wanting to know why
I wanna know you -
I wanna know if
you're drawn to me too.

Heat

Noone has to know -
of what you can't let go...

Push it deep within -
no need to share with them...

Or anyone at all -
it is only your fast fall...

Your eyes hold the key -
to the secrets that must be...

Kept in your emerald box -
you held when your eyes crossed...

Pitiful little patters -
can't even see what matters...

So near and so intense -
yet you will only have the glimpse...

Of your hearts desire -
you should never play with fire.

Rain

Hot breath
soft bed -
the music dancing
in our heads...

lucious lips
mirrored two -
lost in lustful
sin with you...

your taste
longing heat -
moving to
the heart beat...

eyes closed
it came true -
secret whispers
filled with you.

Flutter

You are
my taboo -
sitting here secretly wanting you..

as you dance
in my mind -
with the desire of having just one time..

within your lips
within your grasp -
within whatever you're holding back..

you are
my taboo -
sitting here day dreaming about you...

I want your hand
on my thigh -
I'm saying it all with just my eyes...

my heart pounds
just a little bit more -
wondering why you infatuated it for..

you are
my taboo -
sitting here secretly wanting you.

Twinkle

My crush
just crashed -
time to leave it in the past...

and forget about
this lingering doubt.

My heart skipped
a beat -
second time in a week...

but forget about
what will never work out...

Secrets
fill my mind -
it happens time after time...

But I won't let my feet
skip a beat...

because my crush
just crashed -
sure made my heart beat fast.

Transparent

I wanted to go,
but the hole was more inviting...
finally gave up to the
imagination fighting...

resisting existing...
no energy for fixing...

the need
to tuck away -
a not have to face
anything day...

fade to black...
no reason to fight back.

Chains

It's quite quiet
in here -
I can hear it
quite clear...

all the thoughts
that make me think.

It's quite chilly
in here -
holding what
I hold dear...

as I find myself
still standing on the brink.

If I could just
make it come true -
all of the things
I long to do...

I might finally
find that happy missing link.

Ladder

Standing at the bottom
looking up -
how will I get through
this life and my luck...

Setting free a bunch
of empty dreams -
the more that I hope
the further they seem...

Ready to just throw
in the towel -
In order to move up
I have to start climbing now...

It's dark here and
full of pounding strife -
I guess it's no big deal
as it's only my life.

Heat

All alone -
this side of the fire...
left behind to -
quench this desire..

Did I do the right thing?
If so, why is there pain?

How to know which road to go...

Broken hearts -
a dime a dozen...
when you once believed -
what was really wasn't...

What about the memories...
living inside of me...

how to know which road to go.

Restless

A heart
torn into -
tears come
it's nothing new...

No longer
me and you -
and I'm lost as to
what to do...

Regrets
twisted knife -
only to live
this one life...

Now to
face the day -
when there is nothing
left to say.

Spinning

Many lives lived during one life -

student, teacher -

husband, wife -
child, mother -
enemy, lover-

the roads are long and twisting...

cycling people and situations
over and over again.

Like a dryer...

round and round...
mirroring the world.

Forgiveness

See through and
Quite transparent -
Reminded why it's done...

You came, you saw
and went -
That was not the one...

Grasp your glass
half empty -
and see that it's half full...

Smile
for after all -
it turned out quite beautiful!

Door Mat

I told you goodbye
when you walked out that door -
and I shut it behind you
that's what doors are for -

Now it's locked up tight
That is for sure...

I threw out your opinions
and forgot your name -
I don't care who's at fault
or who is to blame -

I'm done with you
and your blame game...

I don't care where you're going
because I know where you've been -
I assure you honey
you won't be there again -

Go live happily ever after
Case closed - the end!

Peace

I give it all to you
I lay it in your hands -
you've heard my humble cries
at the mercy of your commands...

I step up to the edge
and fall into your arms -
as you lift me from this world
and all it's worldly harms...

Set gently on my knees
arms up to the sky -
as you lift it all away
I wave to it goodbye.

Dotted Lines

Following the rainbow path
splattered with rain -
showing that all our work
hasn't been in vain...

creeping down this road
twisting us through -
now it's becoming clear
what we can do...

As the sun peaks out
and out shines the dew
we skip along this journey
to one that's new.

Clouds

She only dreams in color -
She looks to the sky to sigh...
Perusing all her options -
as once again she tries...

To flee from the walls
that close her in too tight -
she knows once she's free
she'll run with all her might.

Water Colors

Just like it never existed
a dream that never was -
Floating through the air
surviving just because...

A hint of troubled times
while coloring out of lines -
Knowing it’s only mine
sweet memories of those times...

I catch my breath to breathe
as it could never be -
Sometimes you live the truth
while living in a dream.

Wish

I wish I knew
How to see -
The choices that are
Right for me…

A laundry list
A marked out map -
With where to go
And what to pack…

I wish I knew
What to do -
Give up now
Or follow through…

I wish I knew
my hope is real -
And hands will shake
on a real deal.

Time

I'm amazed how
the body repairs itself...

emotional wounds -
heal...

physical wounds -
heal...

mental wounds -
heal...

In awe of the ability
to heal.

Steel

A knife twisted in the back
though I don't know why -
Letting go of joy I know
from those days gone bye...

Tears broken down in blood
just as in the heart -
I don't know where to go
after the depart...

Ice cold melted warm love
shivers down my spine -
Like steel metal shocking one
silently from behind.
