He walked up to her with open arms
As though no time had passed
As his arms welcomed her
Her eyes welled up with tears
He dropped to his knees and cupped his hands
He caught every one she shed
His knees bled with patience
As she emptied out her heart
Sadness, anger and laughter were emotions she shared
His heart knew she was honest
And he knew that she was hurt
He didn’t argue with her
Only listened as  she poured

As her tears stopped falling
And her words slowed, then stopped
He rose and looked her in the eyes
Held her face and pulled it close to his
“I love you with all my heart and only wish for you the best”
He then turned and walked away
As she shed a final tear
Her heart he took with him
And she whispered a final, ‘goodbye’

Farewell to my heart

So much has changed
So much stays the same
As soon as I think I know
Just as quickly I am confused

I love you
You have my heart
I come to you
Ready to be wrapped in your embrace

I arrive
Your arms around me
Cool air brushes my neck
I pull back

You’re the same as when I left
Time changes some things
Others remain the same
Are you enough

Will you be able to sustain me
Or are you like all the rest
As soon as my interest wains
You let me walk away

I left once
With an ache and sadness
That filled me
To the point of tears

Every day
I think about coming back
To your arms
Hoping they will welcome me

Here I am
Once again
Looking to you
To fill my heart

I step back
And look at you
I realize
It’s in me that something is missing

I don’t think there is only one
that can give me what I need
I realize now that as I learn and grow
I need more than you can give

So I step back
With a tear in my eye
And say goodbye a final time
to my heart, my love

My city, which will forever hold my heart
even though it can no longer hold me
I ache to love you again
but it’s time to say goodbye

EXCITEMENT GROWS AS OUR WORDS DANCE TO THE SAME TUNE.

EMOTIONAL CONTEXT INTERTWINES OUR KNOWLEDGE OF EACH OTHER.

SMOOTH VOCAL TONES MINGLE IN THE SILENT AIR.

RHETORIC DISREGARDED WITH NON-CAUTION.

WHO ARE YOU THAT KEEPS ME INTERESTED IN SPEAKING ON TOPICS NON-RELATED?

HOW DID YOU STIMULATE MY CURIOSITY FOR ISSUES OF NO INTEREST TO ME?

WITH SUCH ELEGANCE AND PATIENCE WHEN YOU REITERATE SUBJECTS I HAVE A LACK OF GRASP ON.

THE GRACEFUL FORM OF WORDS YOU USE TO TEACH ME ALL OF WHICH I HAVE YET TO LEARN.

I INQUIRE SO MUCH OF YOUR INTELLIGENCE.

PLEASE GIVE MORE OF IT TO MY ANTICIPATED CURIOSITY.

DIG DEEPER INTO MY BRAIN AND IMPREGNATE IT WITH INTELLECTUAL THOUGHTS THAT WILL FOREVER BE ETCHED INTO MY CEREBRAL CORTEX.

I SUBMIT TO YOU MY EAGERNESS AND WILL TO LEARN.

MAKE LOVE TO MY MIND.

Loving you

My head is filled
with memories
although they’re very few
swimming around
inside of me
are memories of you

The way you
touch and hold me
the way you
hold my hand
I think about you
constantly
I keep the image
with me for
as long as I can

My head is filled
with images
of moments that we share
the words that you have whispered
the way you show you care

I think about you constantly
every single day
I imagine I could
spend my life
loving you this way

Soul Mate

You take me to a higher plane
A level that I never imagined
Where honesty
Integrity
Respect
Friendship
Are at the core
and
present every day

Every conversation
elicits a deeper
more profound
level
of respect
and admiration

You never make me
feel worthless
or
as though
you could do better

Your actions
back up your
words and
I believe
your desire
your want
are genuine

You make me
feel beautiful
and special
with a glance
no words
or
touching
is necessary

Yours eyes
reveal
your soul
and
I see me
in your eyes

The Past

Hold on
don’t let go
the spinning will stop
just wait
it will slow down
so you can see

Okay now
open your eyes
focus
what is there
do you know
what you’re looking at

Breathe
is it real
something tangible
to hold on to
or is it a past
that you can’t let go of

Are you
wishing things were different
that you could go back
and change
the outcome of your actions
so she was still there

Is there
still blame
are you still hurting
do you
wish she would see the light
and come back to you

It’s over
don’t bother
the past
is just that
there is no hope
to resurrect
what might have been

Who I am

Wondering
about tomorrow
who I am
where I might go

Evaluating
what I want
who I am
where I’m going

Contemplating
adventures ahead
who I am
the direction I’m headed

Understanding
what I’ve gone through
who I am
how to get there

Seeing
the road I’m on
who I am
what is around me

Saying
goodbye
the past is the past
I’ve moved on
I’m happy with who I am

Daydream

My eyes flutter
in the early morning light
as it dances through the trees
in my window
and across my bed

For a moment
in my still groggy, slowly waking mind
I believe you are next to me
I feel your arms around me
Your breath on my neck
Your fingers gently caressing my body

The sunlight dances
and wakes me from my groggy haze
I know you aren’t here
You’re not here touching me
Your breath is not on my neck
I close my eyes
Hoping to hold on to my daydream

I hear the door open
I don’t turn
for fear that I will lose the memory
Then I feel
your body
press closely against mine
your fingers
as they trace the outline of my breast
your lips
as they kiss the back of my neck
you
as you enter me
causing me to moan
and pull myself closer to you

The sunlight dances across my bed
As we move in unison
and my daydream
becomes reality
you are here
touching me
caressing me
your breath on my neck

Reality
is so much better
than a daydream

We’ll make it

I think about you
Alone with your thoughts
Alone with your anger
Your frustration
Your disappointment
My heart hurts for you
I want to make things better
My arms ache to wrap around you
I want to love your worries away
My reality knows I can’t
My heart wishes I could
I’m here
I’m yours
I’ll walk beside you
I’ll hold your hand
We’ll make it through
To the other side

We’ll make it
To where rainbows fill the sky
To where the sun warms us
Where the moon romances us
We’ll make it
To where no one else matters
To where nothing can penetrate our joy
Where our love is enough
We’ll make it
Together
Hand in hand
We’ll make it
To where happiness envelops our every breath
Where nothing can tear us apart

I wait

I wait
You said you’d call
I wait
Expecting you to come through
I wait
Hoping this time will be different
I wait
One hour passes; then three
I wait
No more
