POETRY: YOU ARE IN MY VEINS

I am penniless with not much to offer
But only these kind words for a divine soul.
So an attempt shall be made when about her I speak,
For an eternity of comparisons we may seek,
And still, shall we not find words that would hold.

What words are worthy of a spirit with a brilliant heart of gold?

What words can be used to express her gracious laughter,
Which lingers in her company's heart far long after?
Whose glowing hair the angels use as a beacon,
and as time grows, this torch shall never weaken.

What words are worthy of a spirit with a brilliant heart of gold,

To express the mere presence of her, lends to our essence console?
Michelangelo has captured this Earthly Angel from where he paints,
For he caught her reflection on the ceiling
and had mistaken her for one of the saints.

What words are worthy of a spirit with a brilliant heart of gold?

Only these kind words I can offer the blessed one,
an eternity we shall spend, and still comparisons shall never be don

Listen to your heart, they say
But is that really true, I ask myself
Can one deny the flesh long enough
To make sense of what the heart is saying?
I want to believe my heart
The quiet murmur of love
The distant thunder of two heartbeats
Melted into one, the tender kisses on flush cheeks
Yes! That is the feeling of love
For me to have and to cherish
Yet! I wanted more; maybe the feeling of my skin
Flushed red hot like lava
Building and bubbling in my veins
The strain of my heart echoing for release
I want to feel my soul melting
Like jellybeans in the heat of summer
For once I wish not to listen to my heart
Instead I will go with the fire
Emanating from within my folds
Hunger for the touch, melting with the heat of desire
For now I will banish all thoughts
And react in the moment
I want my passion to burn beneath
The skins of the world
Scorching it with the heat of
Forget-me-not

Holding to a word, a sentence, a phrase.
Each day lusting you, joins the numberless days.

Slow is the pulse to my heart's drug.
A moment without you will be pulling the plug.

Face of beauty, eyes of stars.
Body as curved, as vines to bars.

Rose to the vision, smooth with her walk.
I know if i had a chance, I'd have to do more than talk.

Often I wondered, how much time was put to perfection.
But then I remember, why I'm drawn past her complexion.

Her mind keeps me connected at every text.
Having her thoughts, is like knowing what's next.

If only my word-work, was as good as her expectations.
And if only my appearance was as good as her aspirations.

Love wouldn't be enough to describe it.
It feels so good, your doctor has to prescribe it.

Feelings are mutual if you love me, too.
Save me you words 'cause this might speak for you.

Couples, hand in hand,
Looking, eye to eye.
Giggle, as they walk,
Happy, passing bye.

Smiling, ear to ear,
Hear it, what they say.
Loving from the dawn,
Throughout all the day.

But, you, you never look at me that way.
I never, ever hear you say
Those words to me.
But, you, I never, ever see you cry.
When I have to say goodbye,
It's just 'goodbye' to me.

Longing, for your touch,
Hoping, for your love.
Dreaming, I am
The man you're 'dreaming' of.

Can't you see it in my eyes
And hear in what I say?
These feelings won't just die
Or, softly fade away.

But, you, you never look at me the same.
To you, it's all a game,
With me, you play.
But, you, what more do I have to do?
All I want is to be with you...
Forever and a day.

do you know you’re in my veins?
if i were cut once more,
i would bleed the all the colors in you.
i’ve dissected my soul
to find your answers-
killed myself
to give your life a little meaning.
do you know you’re in my soul?
in everything i do,
every breath i take,
every choice i make,
you’re hidden around the corner.
you’re in my head, 
you’re in my blood.

It's been so many years now, yet it seems just days ago.
That day we met eachother, then we said "I love you so."
It's amazing just how quickly, time has passed us by.
My life feels oh so perfect, for I have you by my side.

You have given me a love, I have never had before.
A cherishable romance, without an open door.
You've promised me your soul, and the world that we're a part.
Your forgiveness and your faithfulness is the kindness of your heart.

Today we are a couple, down the aisle we have wed.
Each night it makes me happy, having you beside me in our bed.
I wake up to a smile, and the love you have to share.

Each morning you say you love me and you'll always love me so.
At night you say you need me and you'll never let me go.
As much and true as that may be, I know one thing's for sure.
My heart beats fast as my love for you is much stronger than before.
