Missed Connection

February 23rd, 2019

I met you on your birthday

a chance connection

for me it was like every other day

except that I saw your face

and it made me smile, giggle like a child

i nearly floated away

it felt like there was light in my life

a light i saw mirrored in your face when we met again

not the second time

but maybe the third or fourth

it was so clear that you wanted to see me, too

i made a point of being where you were

so i could be in your presence, gaze upon your face, exchange words

i tried so hard to build that bridge

to make that connection

maybe there was no feat of engineering

that could have brought us closer together

maybe the timing was all wrong

or there was no foundation to build on

i could have been mistaken

finding significance where there was none

it might have been your birthday

but it was just another day, wasn’t it?

et tu

January 31st, 2016

and then there’s you

and you and you and you

lurking in every corner of my mind

slipping in and out of my dreams

miles away — yet somehow

always by my side

there you are

again

why can’t i shake

the thought of  you?

am i, is this, could it be

haunted?

it couldn’t be

but perhaps

am i blessed

with the thought of you?

and you and you and you

every waking hour

and sleep-filled night

it’s you

and you and you and you

I just can’t get enough of you

if I could have no one and nothing else

I would choose you

and you and you and you

You Will See

January 31st, 2013

I will mark and I will claim you
Maul and maim you
Take and tame you
I will have and I will hold you
Understand and know you
Love and control you
I will collar and I will lead you
Bite and bleed you
Cherish and need you
You will push and you will pull me
Arouse and fill me
Fulfill and complete me
And I will keep you
And you will keep me
we will feel and we will be
Entangled, star crossed, invincible
You and me

Desire

July 7th, 2003

you leave me breathless

promise not to give it back

and when you hold me i can tell

all

the

things

you

never

say

i like to think it means something

and the look in your eyes is not lost on me
this is more than just some vanity fair

and the attraction falls far

skin

the

beneath

i could lay like this without ever wanting more
your skin, your sin, your moonlit eyes
i’m smiling now; as much at your mercy as you are at mine

i
feel
safe
in
your
hands

my pretty doll

[[fill me up]]

these secrets grace my lips
blood red and sweet
the way that n a t u r e made them

i know that’s how you like them

i was falling, and you caught me

you put the stars in my eyes…

pulled

down

the

moon

can we be one?

the way i see in my dreams?
