Skates and ballerina's (edit: finally finished!!)

Skate's and Ballerina's



ever wonder
What's out there?
I dont.
Not since I met you.
Your framed glasses
Your blonde brown hair
I'd want to play with strands
twirling them around
like a ballerina dancing
You wouldnt mind.

I'm addicted to your laugh.
it cant be helped
So Gorgeous
So Rare
It's hard knowing
I've found such beauty
This young
without a clue what to do
but to write this sonnet
just for you

We met long before
In a party of nameless ghosts
Only you stood out
Flying around in those skates
It's still a shame
I never caught you then
And though your standing still
I dont know if I'll ever catch you now

But we're speaking
Enough to satisfy
and so much room to dream
The way you snort always makes me smile
Im a sucker for you
Such a sucker
Just for you though

I'll show you the ropes
How to switch lanes in style
With a highway long enough
And more time
to pry feathers from your wings
Just
To ensure you stay
I can learn your favorite
passion
and those lips so enticing
leaving me speechless

Lost
I was a lot better at this before
You were just a beautiful dream
Now its gotten real
I apologize if I fuck up
Or one day lose touch
We all have misguided dreams
If I do that forgive me please
Its all new to me
seeing your smile in 3-D.

But I promise
My intentions are pure
enjoying what I can
Helping with this
talking about
That
proving
I am for real
and for what it's worth
The Jury's still out

How could I even begin
To describe
in a post modern diotribe
for everyone that see's you
I thought you a mirage
But when I came up close
You were just as stunning
This isnt the Sahara
Would have died of thirst gazing
Im a sucker for you
Such a sucker
Just for you though

Now
This is a secret
I might give it away
Staring at your eyes
Wishing I could jump in
Stop the pain
I'd love to promise
that youd never hurt
But I found out long ago
Life is mightier than the shield
And there may be a time
I see you cry
with no way to calm
an angels sorrow
It was never like this in my dreams
I might not know what to say
I might even fuck up
If that happens, forgive me please
This is new to me
I'm not used to seeing
Your beautiful smile
in 3-d

Sketch

Quickly etching on your skin
My brown eyes draw a map
of your rosy cheeks
and the slopes of your face
quickly becoming my favorite place

words carry easy
upon the weight of perfumed air
The past is forgotten
but I am sworn to carry out
a drought my lips have idly wrought
because having you is what they always sought

I give into display
Vain carries the thoughts of may
and spring flowers will learn to bloom
As long as I am promised
to see you soon

Given a riddle
of what unlocks my heart
maybe a spark
be my four leaf clover
im all out of excuses
and ready to dive in
....but could I bring with me
those etchings of your skin?
--------------------------------------------
Reservation crumbles my castle
where I longingly peered out
from my tower of jade
rose colored windows
shatter and bleed
And I am left
with so much to need

Thy kingdom come
I will be scared
Always the martyr
Never been cared
The only diamonds left
to sparkle
are your eyes
glowing with pride
lowering the gates
as I kneel and confide

Iron stone forged from belief
but a shadow of what one man
could once concieve
I submit myself
and come along
before more damage is done
the battle is over
my heart
you have won

no idea what to do with this one

" I guess this is where my colors are defined"
Your eyes now azure and your lips red like wine
Your skin pale like moonlight shining from above
Your smile always reminds me how to fall in love

But Buried in a sea of grief
And Only wanting clarity in what I seek
An acoustic guitar once played our song
With the strings guided by your beauty all along

Now so bitter like old champagne
I still miss running my fingers through your hair
And whether or not I can come back
Dont you forget me, dont you dare

But in case the summer comes too soon
and when all the nights turn to noon
when all you can remember is my name
just know since I met you, Ive never been the same

Give me a ring, and play your favorite song
Jimmy eat world on repeat all day long
But hear you me, Believe in what you want
Just tonight.. your my love's savant

Sleep

You had a dream
I had one too
I know mine was sweeter
Because it was of you

Poem (from december)

You

Pictures of your smile
Lodged in my brain between
Random thoughts and concrete wants
Never upgraded the camera
Soft crimson lips were always better in person
I miss the spring

My steps awkwardly circling
the hardwood floor where i left my dream
dancing around and around in ways foreign
learning steps and routines
leaving my old self in bad shoes and ripped jeans
weaving around an unsung beauty
your lips were always better in person
I miss the summer

Walking the still stale sand
Always close enough to merit a chuckle
but far enough to never hold your hand
never more desired to grasp five fingers
and all the while, a daze to the senses
My nose smell's bitter seawater
But my eyes gaze on those sweet lips
they were always better in person
I miss the fall

Awoken now are those dreams
Never to be comprimised or traded in
Sick of getting less than I asked
Never more than I bargained for
Given a second chance at the future
Nothing will take that away
But between the random thoughts and concrete wants
Wedged inside an infinite space
Those soft crimson lips
That I always wanted to kiss
They were always better in person
And i'll miss the spring, And i'll miss the fall
But if one day day we meet again, i'd tell you
I missed you most of all

Fantasy

I love you
That’s all that matters now
You know
I wont be able to hide
The way my eyes lock onto yours
Still
What if
We had a moment to ourselves
And time was just a fairy tale

The radio
Would be playing "our song"
Once we picked one out
And a movie
Forged from romance
Not the Hollywood type
Keeps our room dimly lit
We’ll have to get around to making it

Your still moist skin
From lips refusing to stop
Time is just a fairy tale
Try to remember
We might forget
The world might once again invade
Reality is overrated
And I think I hear our song

whisper forever in your ear

its all just a whisper
flowing gently in the air
passing by innocent earlobes
a foreign dialect of toungues and rambles
not understanding three simple words

swimming around the tree's
like little kids with their huge hopes
tickling each green leaf or white stemmed rose
and leaving behind sketchings of your hands
that I would love to hold

passing by gray victorian houses
skipping beyond the picket fences
and onto my field of dreams
where Julie Andrews had her song
and I have my own kiss
that ive wanted all along

gently knocking at your window
but careful not to wake a sleeping cinderella
its far past twelve and your still in full gown
though one slipper less and without a silver crown
there is no prince at your door,
and there is no wrath
like a heart left to mourn

skiddishly encircling your white sheets
and memorizing those entrapping lips
three simple words begin a queue
for the easiest way to say
well, just three simple words

And you may never know what was just said
because its all a whisper
flowing gently in the air
passing by innocent earlobes
without pause to share
but give me a night
when im in my field of dreams
and telling you those three words
is so much easier than it seems
and maybe then id recall
the words that came from you
uttered in such a whisper
"I love you too"

Limbo

A bed full of satin sheets
keep you warm like a queen
as you toss and turn so gently
your pillow provides no cover
from the thoughts that so rudely invade

wishings of this and wantings of that
never at peace with decisions
when the jury has been dismissed for so long
you squirm nervously on the stand
reverse the roles darling

time takes its leave
as you stare at the white ceiling
hours and minutes lose meaning
eternal beauty cannot be distracted
with hunting down the culprit
of these sleepless nights

crates of guilt
weigh such a lively figure down
when all she has wanted
is just a desire away
its hard to name a dream
when she feels
they've all been taken away

And for every tear
that has been shed for another
wanting to grant bliss
making herself smile
was never important
god's show their dismay
creating such an angellic grin
but not gazing upon it as often
or as easily as they should

and as you toss and turn
on this new years day
and me wishing i could hold you
until those thoughts left the fray
or grant a wish
of just a few good nights sleep
pass the thoughts onto me
and ill bury them deep

and when your eyelids close
a smile etches itself so wide
and worries are cast out to sea
as I watch them float from my window
wanting to one day walk the sand
talk to you from dusk till dawn
maybe share a hand in hand
given a night to remember
and knowing in what we confide
those thoughts that were once so plagued
will no longer fault your stride

broken mirrors

"Hearts in the mirror may more broken than they appear"




I label you my heartbreaker
innocent and tantric
you shouldnt be concerned
nor will you ever know
but I think I just came to accept
its all a lot more than I realized

visions and dreams
remembering all that is fake
and ignoring the real
with all thats at stake
I guess thats unhealthy
still, the touch of your lips
that was just such bliss
got quite addicting

self infliction
through coming back to earth
my wings have fallen
and while yours still stay by your side
I cant fault an angel
for just wanting someone to confide

The way we all are
always looking to lay the blame
this time its all on me
for driving myself insane
desiring that kiss
holding of a hand
just lying on the beach
being one with the sand
living out our fantasies
give or take a few
especially the ones
when im always with you

So place the concrete
and fortify the heart
lets nip this in the bud
before our rose can bloom
seal off the part of me
that knows your perfect
because i know i'll see you soon
and I dont want to bend
real men wont buckle
I just wish you saw my hand
before it got a reshuffle

months from now I'll probably change
and those lips wont plague my mind
your hips wont sway my decisions
and staring at you wont make me stumble
I'll be a lot more put together
but feeling so torn apart

Yet I'll ignore it all
and laying on the freshly cut grass
being one with the ground
living out our fantasies
without ever making a sound
and maybe i'll share a couple
give or take a few
especially the ones
when I was always with you

banana's and rasberries

I'm not the image
And cosmo wont do a spread
I dont think I'll make you drool
and I wont be the spokesman for bread

I'm a living dream
a blessing and a curse
enough vision to gaze
but so many wounds to nurse

I dont think I'd give a damn
if the world saw me square
if joan rivers hated my outfit
because god, I hate her hair

I'm ballsy to a fault
And I'd strive to make you blush
make love on the balcony
and kiss you hush hush

with so much to stress about
and so many reasons to care
how about I show you the truth
your beautiful no matter what you wear

and whether its a KISS shirt
or pajama's with rimmed glasses
Gazing upon you is my dream
I keep hidden from the masses

And next time you tear up
or show an ounce of pain
I'll hold you throughout the night
or walk with you in the rain

I must say
that you scare me so much
never have I more wanted a kiss
never have I beckoned a touch

couple more weeks
miles away and off to school
a thousand other thoughts
and im not the type to make you drool

but give me some time
I'll figure this all out
could you show me your smile though
because thats what life's all about

with everything else so earthly
my heart labels you divine
and my hands hold yours closely
while my lips plead yours to touch mine

wondering what this feeling is
giving me wonder and giving me fright
I think I just figured it out
goodnight my love , goodnight

"Broken"

When they played that damn song all the time on the radio

Let me be who I really am
Though I can not undo the wrong
I want to treat you right
And within the storm,
Bring out the calm.

Wear down your defense
Shut off the alarms
Show you a place you can be safe
nestled within my arms

For all those times you felt upset
Or felt utterly betrayed
Maybe a little pissed off
Or even shockingly dismayed

For all the shit that has gone down
Or when you believe we're all the same
Let me be the one to hold you high
And little by little steal your pain

For your not yet broken
And that is not our song
Because only in the loveliest of sonnets
Does your name belong

"But one kiss"


But one kiss to be so divine
But one kiss that is not yet mine
But one kiss I wish I knew
But one kiss to steal from you

But one kiss to savor so sweet
But one kiss my heart would greet
But one kiss my lips desire
But one kiss to ignite our fire

But one kiss, not gentle, nor rough
But one kiss, would never be enough
But one kiss, I would never forget
But one kiss, for the beautiful girl
Only my thoughts have met

Erotic ish poem, spoken word(first attempt, 8 months ago)

youve been warned. I think I could have polished this up quite a bit, but im ok with it as is.




My concerns are rendered moot
From The
Warm
Breathing
Touch
Of your voice

With it I am powerless
Happily complying
A boyish grin
Nods with a smile
Wanting a never ending story
An oh so perfect ending
And only you will know
what I'm talking about

Memories of our kisses
Melding with caressing
Your soft back.. shoulders
Tickle my neck
Make my ear quiver with
A lick
All it takes
Comply with my wishes
Indulge me


Moan for me
Pant
I demand it and
Your voice echo
Sinful pleasure
Trickling sweat
drip...drip .. drip
Slide down your smooth skin
They feed my hunger
Wont you!
Cant you?
Will you
Kissing to your naval
Wet and informally desheveled
Your hair sways with wild abandon

Torture me
With licks
sway my grins
Suck
Pant
Wont you!
Cant you?
Will you
We dance around the subject
Ballerina's in your bed


Tip toeing
Tantalizing
Grip my shoulders
Bite my chest
Your teeth marvel me
I need more
Vivid innocence thrown to the wind
Thighs taunt me

Eyes roll back
I hear you giggle
More
Angels turn their eyes
Trickles of you dance
A sonnet around my skin
Bounce together
My hands grip tightly
Legs lock around each others
Sink in
Tight
Pretend to squirm
You wont last long
Kiss me
Tongue's swaying
Mute flicks of affection
I want more
Wont you!
Can't you
Will you
Eyes close
Resistance is suppose to be easy
But you make me so hard
So close
Faster we dance
Delivering me an encore
Bounce
Hastily cover
Every inch
Your body
My prison
Don't let me out




Suspend time
An oak room whispers
Material so envious
Of such angelic lips
Never to enjoy the trappings of a kiss
Shout
Joyously
Invigoratingly
Let them hear
In a
Breathing
Breathtaking
Breath
You are mine



To be mistaken
An imposing challenge
Leaves me willing
And able

Such fine lips
Such fine hips
I cup your face
Endlessly chasing
Big brown eyes
To survey conquered territory
To see them
staring back into mine
Come with me
We'll suspend time
Tick tock
Tick tock
Do you hear it?
Soon
The world is our playground
I'll have you back by sunrise
A face
A chase
Hands
Your waist
I've lost my mind
And have never felt so coherant

I kiss your hips
Hands slide down
Tonight
Kneel
Breathe me in
Rapture dons a face
Our eyes slide inward
Come
Lets conquer the earth

I'll have you back by sunrise
