Bedtime Story

You knew just how much

I would miss you here

How hard it would be

To feel this empty space

You couldn’t hold me

Not anymore, even from afar

Our last night bridged by screens

Closing the distance of longing eyes

Alone after you left me cold

I no longer feel you close

All through the night

Never letting go, pulling me tight

You always turned me to you

Never taking my back but heart

So you left this shirt

An offering off your back

You knew it good on you

So you gave tangible memory

Tucked in my closet, worn to bed

You knew our love, never dead

Exceeded Affections

For what else can I do

But proclaim what I know

A simple light in this rain

Falling from my eyes

 

My shoulders are heavy

I can’t use my cheeks

To pull up a smile

Not even to hide anymore

 

Yet in your voice I find

A comfort where I rest

A small smile returns

I am not alone

 

In this solace, delivered

I confess my love

For yours unconditional

Where time has no limit

 

You stay by my side

Even when I resist

Waiting for my confession

Your mutual affection exceeds

 

Now I share my discovery

Rooted in softest desire

Where I join your profession

Simply stated once, it’s complete

Reliving A Moment (Alone)

Yesterday, I looked happy again

I caught a moment

Looking right at the lens

Hoping your eyes may see

Sun glistened on my hair

A bright glow on my face

My honey lips upturned with joy

Pushing my apple cheeks skyward

Those rays inside burst forth

Straight through clouds of gray

That hovered in the wake of despair

But that beating warmth never dims

Love burns endlessly

Even if a soft flame consealed

Oil need not replenish the flame

What two souls do not extinguish

Home Sweet Home

I wake from a dream,

A place where you’re with me,

With an empty seat now beside

I must wait to see

If our waking hours

Open our eyes to

Our story forever realizing

All our life will be

Though it may come

At a greater upfront fee

The choices honors the miraculous

 

I confessed missing you

As big as the sky

When you first asked nervously

Riding that discovered high

Now we coast the clouds

In vessels we don’t fly

Can you feel it too

That ache too thorough to deny

The hesitancy a sting that relieves

In love we can still purify

When you come back home

The Living Dream

You wake up at night
Knowing in the stillness
You can’t let me go
So you pull me tight

You wrap me up
Laying in constant warmth
Together in your arms
Safe before the buildup

I awaken too
When you kiss me softly
Letting the memory linger
A touch kept after you do

I rise with the sun
Welcomed back to our dream
This life we share together
In a home we live as one

You open your eyes to me
You smile at the sight
And I’m ready for the day
Knowing I’ll come back to see

We live a dream
Better than the sleeping

2xUs

I dedicate this year’s themed Valentine poem to all my friends at Home Depot.

 

You’ve got the tape measure

To size us up

With the figures sure

Our heart fits in our chest

 

So we draw the marks

In all the spots

As a nail parks

Our structure holds together

 

You hold the drill

The power’s in your hands

To keep our hearts alive still

Our beat’s as sound as level

 

We get all the parts laid

And dwell inside

where our love is made

Our house builds around us

 

It’s 2xUs forever long

Hands joined in strong embrace

In a power hold

Our heart is our home

Quiet Night

I’ve got the promise of a city new

Made my move in bolder light

All that’s left is you

To keep us in one sight

 

I know you as one of few

so tell me this is right

when I don’t hear you

again for another night

 

I don’t know what to do

Not all times are bright

It’s all because of you

It feels I’m losing a fight

 

My heart runs askew

When I’m in your mind, out of sight

All it wants is you

To shine forth all your might

 

Because together, always new

We dance in the light

Where the guide is you

Always in my sight

Here to There

My boyfriend may not be
Near
But his shirt is
Here

I shrug over shoulders
Covered
A part of him still
Hovered

I may curl up
Alone
But don’t hear wrong
Tone

For when I plan
Away
He goes too
Say

Join my family
Me
Too for holiday soon
See

New faces for me not
Him
A step into us and them
Prim

The proper way to say
Ring
A note with all the chorus
Sing

We too harmonize above
Discord
We find in our armor
Sword

But no battle
Sets
For firm ground
Wets

Seeds to grow
Toward
Blossomed fruit
Adored
