If we're being specific

With you I found out,
That a word is missing,
To describe the sensation,
Of smiling and kissing.

Beyond the atlantic

I am a common sailor of the world,
And you,
The rose that heaven hurled,
Dear,
You make my heart furl.

The leaves on trees

I think about it, if I could,
Step into your heart,
Without tracking in filth,
I think about it, if you would,
Use that beautiful stare,
To bring me back to elementary school,
I think about it, if I should,
And it makes me uneasy,
Because it would be the worst crime,
I think about it, and I fear that my love would,
Fade over time.

A pleasant inconvenience

Hello there,
I like your face, I like your hair,
Breathless moments, time unfair,

I like your thoughts, I like your soul,
Instant attraction, stories untold,

I like your body, I like your stare,
What's to come, we're unaware,

I like your stars, I like that you're wild,
I think you know you have me riled,

I like your surprises, I like your scent,
If you must know, my truth is kept,

I like your words, I like your mind,
Truth to say, life's unkind,
I'm not yours and you're not mine.

Parallel lines

11/18/2019

 
Picture
We may have a lot in common,
But never meet,
This agony is true,
But think,
Every other two that meet,
Drift apart forever,
Our souls may walk,
But they will never part,
So don't be sad young one,
Because you're the keeper of my heart.

Because this is how we are

We could stumble on rocks,
And cut across mountains.

We could have the ocean staring back at us,
And think only of the sun.

We could endure frustration,
And feel perfection.

We could be doing nothing,
And wouldn't trade it for anything.

We could hold hands,
And be scared for our hearts.

We should feel melancholy,
Because we gave it all away.

Ocean and sun

What to do?
What to do about you?
When the heart says one is the loneliest number,
But the mind wonders whether it's two.

What to do?
What to do about your sapphire eyes?
When the mind wonders whether they hold the ocean,
But the heart could only think of sunny skies.

What to do?
What to do about you?
When the mind has had enough,
But the heart can't get enough of you.

Awesome truth

10/30/2019

 
Picture
If wealth is lost, you've lost somewhat,
Straighten your back, brighten your mind,
And before you know it, new wealth you'll find.

If honor is lost, you've lost a great deal,
Make handshakes hold true, make gratitude overflow,
And before you know it, your reputation will grow.

If courage is lost, you've lost it all,
No thoughts or handshakes will save you.

Dots in the black

We are two,
Dancing a careful tango,
Which lasts until about,
One of us gracefully,
Bows out.

Often by water

​A fight that leaves you with only pity,
Brings you pain,
So instead,
Let's go,
And sail to the end of a never seen dream.
