a little love poem…

My heart chooses only to dance

when it’s been put in a little love trance

not just by any little voodoo

but only by the type that you do

it’s been hypnotized

mesmerized

and with you there is no compromise

This is my biggest little love enterprise

look into my eyes

and you’ll see

every little part of me

is dripping

right down to the heart of me

I’m open waiting to be awoken

from this pretty little dream that’s only been spoken of

I want to feel your touch

is that asking for a little too much

can I spend a little more time

and see if your poetic mind

and my little pathetic mind

could maybe make a little love rhyme

we could be poetry

woe is me

why’d you have to be so far from me

why couldn’t you just go with me

flow with me

put on a little love show with me

we’d take the crowd

underground

we’d be the definition of love profound

a little more contemplation

intellectual penetration

meet me at that train station

of thought and we could ride together

until we reach our little love destination

Regret…

last night before I fell asleep
I heard a voice whisper to me
it said don’t tell him how you feel
or you’ll regret it

too scared to move or close my eyes
I layed there for the longest time
what if I have already said it

what then do I do
do I run away and hide from the truth
or do I wait for you

I told you I love you
and left you so
awkwardly speechless
it’s been months since I saw you
and I’m waiting
to feel the regret

we haven’t spoken
and I’m feeling broken
but still happy that he knows
and my heart’s exposed
ready to explode
but it gets better as time goes

i told him i love him
and he watched me
slowly walk away
without saying a word
he left me
with no inkling of regret

in order to free my heart
i had to release that part
of me that was too hard
for me to carry around
and he doesn’t have to tell me
how he feels about me
because I’m beyond it
and beyond
the regret

When…

Yesterday we said goodbye and my world became a blur. Tomorrow will be better though and in time my heart wont even know who you were.Hopefully in between that time we’ll find that had we just persisted and continue to get twisted in each other we’d be happier than summer songs and children playing all day long.

And when that day arrives, you’ll look me in the eyes and say you made an error and your nights were filled with terror and you need me by your side. You’ll hold my hand and try to take back what you said the day you left and you’ll cry a bit for dramatic effect and I wont even have the heart to resist your charm. And we’ll make up with a kiss and we’ll start to reminisce on the days that we missed but we wont even miss them because it wont feel like we ever existed without each other. Then you’ll become my lover. And I’ll become yours too. And I’ll sing you songs and write you poetry and you’ll look at me and then you’ll try to tell me… “I love you”.

But it’s still today and my world is grey and eyes are bloodshot from yesterday.

The sky cried tonight…

The sky cried tonight and I felt the pain of a thousand souls lost. a thousand souls found. a thousand souls scattered like confetti on the ground

The sky cried

and a child cried

and the world held her hand

RIP oh pocket of mine…

It was a cold winter’s night but the house was all warm

and nothing could be worse than last night’s snowy storm

we were laughing and playing and joking about

when suddenly from the kitchen I heard a loud shout

I reached out my hand as slow as a snail

for I knew it was a bill from dentistry mail

I opened it up and to my surprise

the number was bigger than costco supplies

I knew it would happen but was shocked none the less

’cause now I can’t buy that pretty red dress

New York was an option but now I’m too poor

there’s no need to even look out of the door

I’m now in a struggle but I’ll figure it out

and yes I will do it with a sulky old pout

so leave me alone don’t ask me for shit

I’m mourning the loss with my empty pocket
