Beneath Us

I could create a post
About the gossiping stars
I could make a toast
To those lips and the heat
That your frame sends
Up my back as if I’ve been
Laying on a bed of warm crystals
Dreaming of fire
On a pillow of mercy
All my life
Our bodies look good
Glowing neon bright
Like towered searchlights
Scanning the sky
Alerting the planets
To our existence
In case our significance
Has gone unnoticed
By the twinkling lights
Our glittering skin
Blinding all the monsters
In sight with the fright
Of our love
Illuminate me
Overwhelm me
Cast your burdens on
The shores of my heart
I will consume your pains
Round them up and
Pitch them back out
Into a crimson
Shrouded explosion
Of reprieve
Dreaming of fire
On a pillow of mercy
With a bed of eternity
Beneath us

Beneath the Night

Given the choice
I miss you like the dream
I never had
Between alone time
And socializing
I miss touching
I miss holding
You
In between time
I will almost always
Surround myself with
You
In fact
I miss you and my need
To be around you
Is so strong
It sometimes gets
In the way of
Everything
My responsibilities
Included
I prefer to play
Rather than work
I’m not responding
Well to orders
Unless they come from
You
Trace my borders
I want to bond
With you over our mutual
Stubbornness and lack of
Laziness to love
Each other
Not to mention
Jumping into
Pools of sweet
Aching memories
To hold you again
And again
I love to miss you
I live to kiss you
Meet me
Under the bridge tonight
I’ll miss you much less
Making out in the light
On the left side
Of the creek
Beneath the night
