Night stained walls
rejects the light peeking in.
A calming vibration,
wrapped in warmth,
seeks and is sought after.
The quiet disturbances of thoughts
keeps sleep bound.
The wide,
and awake,
slithers closer to dawn.

Lay With Me June 14, 2011
I knock on the door
“Come in,” I hear said,
I walk into your house
See you laying in bed.
“Hi,” I whisper
“Hello,” you return,
“Come here,” you request
Oh how I want, oh how I yearn.
Here, I lay in your arms
Allowing your warmth to become my own,
You wink at me, a smile escapes
When I am with you I never feel alone.
As I snuggle my face
Deep into your chest,
Your sweetness smothers
Becomes my breath.
Feeling this moment
As if it were true,
I close my eyes
Find my self in you.
Hold me close
So close, so tight,
Here, laying together
We watch day become night.
I must never fall asleep
Or lose the feel of your touch,
For when I wake in the morning
All that remains will be dust.
For now I’ll stay here
Laying next to you in bed,
If I can’t have you with me
We’ll be together in my head.

Never Alone March 3, 2011
Woke up this morning
Sat down to write,
Never intended
To take part in this fight.
–
My heart full of noise
My mind blank,
Nothing to say
Dreaming awake.
–
Void of inspiration
No love story to tell,
Caught off guard
I slipped and fell.
–
Growing in spurts
One day at a time,
Taking care of myself
“Everything will be fine.”
–
Motivated by loved ones
To do my best,
I’ll stand on solid ground
Let God handle the rest.
–
Realizing my potential
With each temptation I resist,
In a moment of weakness
I found all I had missed.
–
Alone? Not now
Never shall I be,
Given another chance
My love won’t be free.
–
Counting the days
Until I feel alive again,
Focused and driven
In the end, I will win.
