The Return of a Love

Ok i haven't done this in a while love...lyrically and mentally. But i'm willing for you to give, everything that's meant for me. Your eyes shoot light that can blind the heart's sight. So i go into this love thing blindly. hoping that you'll lead, but only if you can find me. i need and want, what they read about. it's like your mind acquired what they comprehended in love books when they would leave them out. timeless love. it's a sign above that helps minds see your personality. an Angel's spirituality. Your mind had me hooked, but your aura mercilessly captured me. I guess you could call it the return of us. or you could properly give it the name....the return of a love.

In Love

I walked down the Avenue in pouring rain
Dressed in melancholy whispering your name...
I saw my reflection in the window's pane
It had your face
I pulled harder on the lace wrapped around my heart
Afraid to lose it whole...

I walked down the Avenue in pouring rain
Drinking a cocktail of my tears and your name...
My reflection in the window, diamonds on displays
I see nothing but your face, your face, your face...

Confusion

My heart's crevices filled with your love
My brain tattooed with your name-signals interrupted...
I ask: Does one need food to survive or is it your hands?

Forbidden

Forbidden
But i loved you anyway
dark, smouldering, sweet
your luminous lips
etched forever
in my memory
thoughts of you
screaming desperately
to be seen
and heard
bellowing verses of pain
and despair turned to
passion and hunger
fire
only to be put out by you...

And I

I don't know how to stop this heart from breaking
And there's just so much that I can't do
I don't know how to stop giving if you keep taking
And I don't know how to stop loving you
I don't know how to stop hoping and dreaming
And I can't stop missing you when you're away
I can't stop believing when you're so misleading
And I can't help wanting you to stay
I don't know how to let you go
And I know I'll never leave
I don't want you to ever have to know
What your life would be like without me

Direction

Wishful thinking leads me to believe that maybe it could happen...because you're the top seller in my love's fashion. I honestly can't get enough of what you have to offer to my heart...so i confess, check me in, do whatever...but regardless my mind won't tell me this can't be...never...i believe in something. i just can't put my finger on what it is yet. But if i don't express how i feel now i'm going to regret. You are my disease, i'd do anything, i'd get on one knee, i will even beg please...

I accepted you for you, flaws and all...now i ask for your heart, for a righteous cause. See i got my head above water with the rest of my body unable to swim, so take my hand and lead me, because i have a feeling later in life you might need me. See i need direction (laughs to self* inside joke)...no really, i NEED direction because your heart has weird street names, highways and cold alleyways...

I feel like i should take it there. In this game of love i feel like i should play it fair...so whatever you ask for that's not materialistic i can do because as you know my pockets stay sore... I'll travel planet to planet to find this entity called everything, because in my heart it's you...but see you might not understand that so to make you happy i'll travel the galaxy...

If you only could

If you only could see into my mind...
Read the little book I wrote with my heart...
If you only could...

Every day a page
11 days without you
11 days missing you...

Straits of Reason

I plea my confession
Of no other way I know
I am only a woman
You - my present with a bow...

I want to love you every day but the distance
Between us is like a river of emotions and no will
You are on the other side on the highest hill...
In your silent land holding you by hand there is no thrill...

I look for your eyes - your eyes don't see me
And I understand, yet it is hard on me...
When I give you a kiss and you just freeze
It is a moment to forget and never miss...
And I understand, yet it is hard on me...

Silence beyond all words is a wisdom rare
But I don't care! I don't dare to believe it for
By your silence I'm defeated...
In forbidden land I can't win
That wide river I won't swim...
I rather dream... So I dream, so I dream...

Source: Tanya, November 2008.

I am

I am the silence in which you dream
I am the silence only you can hear
I am the thirst you cannot kill
I am the fog in which you live
I am the light you yearn to see...

I am the love you've forsaken
Under the sorrow's spell to become
a lonely captive in a gloom of a cell...

Garden

You walked away from yourself
Left a room for me to find a Garden
You in it...

Little Earth
Little Water
Clouds to walk on...
Together we lay down
Eyes closed in ecstasy

Soft dew of happiness...

Missing you

Your pillows cradle my head
Your blanket embraces me in the darkness of night
Drifting off to dream
Laying in the grass next to you
The sun warming our faces
Limbs entangled
Seconds turn into hours
Hours into moments
Time stands still
As I lay in your arms.

Your pillows cradle my head
Your blanket embraces me in the lightness of morning
Alone
In my bed.

Smoke and Tears

As i sit here, i can see the tiny world passing by. I don't care as i let time slip by me cig'rette by cig'rette. through the smoke and the tears i don't see you... so i wait and let this world just pass me by.

And so as the world passes, i leave it behind. where my eyes are blind, my mind can see. with my eyes closed, i am rendered free. free to wander the avenues of time, lost in the quiet oasis of rhyme. clouds walk across my canvas, so i anticipate the rain. the drip of empyrean tears dissipate the pain. and so time slips on by, as the death of the sun colors the sky. and i wait, wipe a tear, because soon enough, the smoke will clear.

Did i tell you?

Did i tell you, how you remind me of childhood things, the only difference between you and the godsent, is a pair of wings?
Did i ever mention that you've interrupted my life with a precise incision, if you stayed still, i wouldn't move from my position?
Did i ever say how i compare and compare, and others always lack, the way your breath makes my train of thought go off track?
Did i ever comment on what exactly it is that draws me to you, like a pencil line from point one, to point two?
Did i ever speak of the inner struggle, when you're hurting, to not reach out, even though i know what it's all about?
Did i ever, ever tell you, that i'm living a life, with you not in it, and it's killing me, every single minute?

I, the Weed

Don't look at me, i'm not the man for you. look at me, look at you. you're a princess, i'm a pauper. you deserve that gold, and all i have is copper.

A life with me, is less than what you're worthy of, you can't live on kindness, can't survive on love. i am not a man of glory and fame. all i have, is my pride and my name. pride and no ambition, name and no wealth. listen to your friends, i am bad for your health.

I can make you happy, but can't satisfy. i will tell you truth hurts, because i will never lie. so go find yourself another fish, and wish for a fish that will fulfill your needs. smell the roses, and don't mind the weeds.

Ode to Regret

I never knew that you knew. and now i know that you know too. it's been so long, i've grown and changed. stepped into the puddles that destiny arranged. i've had my share of likes, but it was only affection. i've walked so far, but in the wrong direction. i've had so many chances to show i cared. instead, i stood, waved and stared. i smiled, i laughed, i ate my fill. i drank, i smoked, i'm empty still. haha, why can't i just say, "you know how i feel, do you feel the same way?"

But i can't. i'm scared of your reply. it could be hello, it could be goodbye. why risk something good, for something better, that could possibly be worse. why would i risk turning a small blessing, into a debilitating curse? so here i stand, stuck in indecision. neck deep in self-derision. you never realize when you give away your heart, until a moment when you're far apart, and feel the tug of another soul, free but for unspoken parole. but take it you did, and didn't give me your own. so i sit, i stand, i stand, i sit. alone.

Time passes, and you go, you're gone. i'm headed for night, you set off into dawn. you leave as my regret, i leave as your friend. there's where it started, and here's where it will end. so now i put my faith in celestial decree; that somewhere out there, there's someone who's meant for me. and if ever i find that someone else, she better be just like you; or i'd never forgive myself.

Torn and Tattered

Through blazing fire
stinging rain
and scorching sun
I deliver to you
my heart.

It may be tattered
it may be torn
It may have been broken
one too many times
But for you
all of the love
Has not escaped.

Not a drop.
Not a dime.

Bandaging my heart
duct tape and band-aids
For the one
who truly
Deserves it.

Fate

Nothing could predict
that we would meet on MissedKisses...
but we did!
like two leaves from different trees dancing in the wind...

And that's how it is in this life
all you have to do is show up and wait...
and then you meet the other leaf
and call it fate...

She

As she walks in the room...i patiently wait for her wings to show...because she has an aura that can boggle the mind of the heaviest thinkers...and a presence that can be felt from afar...by the heaviest drinkers.

It's she i said...and it's she i read when i first laid eyes on her...but i couldn't make out anything with my eyes so i attempted to use my heart...and she damn near gave me a mild heart attack.

I stared in her eyes...and i could see the sins of the deceased. All of the sins that this world has committed. So she whispered in my ear "can you handle me?" I really couldn't understand exactly what had happened to me.

So i got out of my chair and proceeded in her direction...a feeling a forever was packed in ten seconds...She said "when you give a story of who you met today don't mention me"...a man finds an angel...The rest is history.

She 2

Her eyes are like shooting stars...and my wish is to be there. There where the sun shines on her and i...She is the exact replica of an angel but she looks better, and she's flier if you get what i mean. And it seems as if my fall is her cue to save me. Instead of trading me for one of these no good men, she chose i, a man that can truly feel her. Approachable not, but i don't attempt at all, i just think as hard as i can so she can read my thoughts.

I have no depression because of her daily lessons to make me a better man. I have to be with her full time, i guess i should think of a better plan...I want to adapt to her soul, my heart folds when i hear her speak of stories that are untold...

Life isn't as hard when her eyes are watching for God, the Lord speaks through her eyes, in reality she's watching us all... Truth overwhelmingly speaks when she thinks, and i hardly make conversation because her beliefs can't be breached...

She watches me, she studies my movements. And when i'm gone for a split second she asks "where have you been?" The Respect i have for her entity is simply plenty, and now we watch the heavens to watch what is soon to be...

I watch out for she and she definitely watches out for me 2... A man encounters the angel again...The story of She 2.
