Remember

What’s happening?
Every which way
This way n’ that
I love how you love me
No matter what I do
You see me
Through
And
Through

Remember the time
When I held you while crying
Remember the time
When I felt like I was dying
Remember the time
When we fell down from laughter
Remember the time
Happily ever after

Your words show
That your heart is a good one
Your smile shows that
There is nothing more precious
Than the sun

We’ve seen every part
Of each other
We know every
In and out

You are my reason
Not to doubt
That pure love is
A truth
A sanctuary
For recalling
Our youth

I love you best friend
That’s what we call one another
A love to no end
Always gushing

The sad side
The mad side
The bad side
And still
Our cachinnation remains
Never too good for the other
Never too much for each other

This is bliss
This is happiness
We are the twin of acceptance
Raging with love

Remember the times
We have to look forward to

Blue Curtains

What have you disguised
Behind those blue curtains?
Is there something to hide
Something perhaps like
Too much light
A dirty secret
Scratches on the surface

Whatever it is
I can take it
Open that blue cotton
Make way for rays
In this room in ways
You’ve never seen before

Shadows running
For the hills
Only meaningful distractions
What could be keeping
Those shades drawn?
No matter the reason
There is a willingness
A pleasing
To open up
That oracle
Decipher the mystery
You’re keeping
Where screens have
Kept out what would
Surely flow in

Up and down they go

If you no longer
Want to confine
Whatever it is
This this…
Enigmatic hidden pleasure
If I tell you
You can trust me
If you trust me
And you do
When you’re ready
You can pull back
Those blue drapes
Take my hand
My wild escape
Serene surprise
When you’re ready
You can open up
Your eyes

Houdini Love

Sensational times
Escape every moment
I feel handcuffed to a lonely
Repertoire but I’m still willing
To perform stunts
A trapeze jump into
Your charms
Balance on the edge of a cliff

Ends of the Earth stuff

Homage to the heart
An allegiance to love
I’ll hand out programs to
Your talented sideshow
A circus I would happily join
Any day ambition
You are an artist of amour
Vaudevillian painter and lover
Restrain myself no more
Claim the beauty of lovemaking
It would be a sad grave
Without you next to me

The way I cherish your magician
Ashore the antics of a score
Tricks and music
A worthwhile orchestra
Medium to my third eye
I’ve knitted you a sweater
In the shape of
Every fulfillment
Also to make you feel better
When you’re down

You are the sound
My heartaches sing for
A Houdini of love
And star crafter
I rise up for moments like you

Because

We cannot ever guarantee
When they’ll show their face again

Imagination

Establishment
Based in popular
Coat colors
That look awful together
But keep you warm

Chickens that befriend
A self sacrificing
Meal to uphold
Their true bonds
In friendship are
Rooster worthy
The egg came first

Past particles of
Adhesives that never
Disappear but
Are occasionally good
For hanging things on

Even though it’s cold outside
It sure looks fashionable
Why don’t cold weather folks
Have clothing lines?

I have a thought
Lost in my nose
And my finger
Cannot reach it
The doctor says
It’s just my imagination
And that’s exactly why
I’m trying to find it

Eyes of a Child

In the distant memories of love
And lack thereof
I remember so vividly
How it felt to have love
Come and leave

Innocent and beautiful meaning
Painted subtly
In colors of casual truth
Pure loves intent disguised by youth

They remind me of a picture
Unlike any that have
Stood before me
In the eyes of a child
In your eyes like a child

Every night that
I lay down my head
I feel haunted
Beneath what magnifies
How I sleep
In a bed of love
My heart’s conceived

Still I have no desire to erase
Or to replace
What I learned from
Taking that step
I love more and more
And with every broken heart
I grow in depth

And they remind me of a picture

Nothing will be able to chase
My heart away
Or cause it to break
Too many times because
A fire inside
That grows deep and wide
Fills the left side
Fills the right side
With a pure love
Of more than enough
Take what you want
And I will be here
I will be here

To remind you of a picture
Unlike any that have
Stood before you
With the eyes of a child
In your eyes like a child

More

I’m not even sure
I want to see
What I think I’m going to
But I look
Anyway

Don’t forget if you ever need me
I’ll come running

Don’t forget you’ve warned me
Pretend you’ve made a bargain
You’ve got to live up to

As much as you want love
I know you need your freedom more

Your Heart

He focuses on her
She is ready
Their conversation is sensual
She says
“Ohh, that’s freaking leaking!”
The
Uh
“There.” He said, “What?”
Is it supposed to go like this?
Ya, where is the pick at?
It’s behind
Yah… over there
That ain’t gonna hold it down
No it wasn’t on there like that
I was gonna laugh if you screwed that up
“I wasn’t gonna screw it down.”
She said
It wasn’t like that I know
Look at you!
Wait! Here is where I want to put it
Right there…
Pop it on there
Okay there’s gotta be a hinge
To this somewhere
Where’s the flashlight?
It’s gotta be here somewhere
Let me see that thing
Just for a second
What thing?
Your heart

Make Me Want You

You make me want you
So much cause I can’t have you
Forbidden
I mean you know this right
Momentary or not
Could we just get it over with?
Super bliss
Have one night
Like touching a star
Would that be enough?
I’ll take my chance

With your permission
In ways we’re not allowed
Just to be wowed by you

Forever Enticing

Forever biting
Chipping away at
The best part of us
Unfolding all the truths
Learning every piece
Seeing how it fits
Deeper than sex
Could ever expect
To get

A combination
Sensual relation
Of the mind

All in good time
My dear

All in good time

We will see a bigger
Piece than both of us
That we create together
Forever enticing
The placement
Of two hearts
In one
Sharing one lung
Sharing one sun

You are fetching
My inner angel
Overlapping our cathedrals
Alluring the afternoon
Between us

Pianos in our eyes
Rolling on the floor

I believe I saw you once
Eating delicious figs
In a succulent dream
Three or four
Forever enticing
Our friendship
Beyond what stellar
Means
