If only

Lay with me but a moment 

Smile and take my hand, 

Let’s Forget our worries 

And accept what we don’t understand 

Enjoy the goosebumps on our bodies

From being oh so close 

Let’s memorize this moment in time 

And forget the lives we chose 

For just this moment it’s you and me

And nothing exists in this world

It could have been oh so different 

Had only I been yours 

Resonate

It’s been some time since you’ve been gone 

I have yet to shed a tear

Instead I’m filled with anger 

And it’s worsened through the year 

I remember you in your death bed

It encompasses me in fear

How did you ever end up that way 

Too young, yet no longer here 

You surrounded yourself in anger

Bitterness and lies

Your memories were tainted 

Forgiveness never tried

You never were a mother 

And you left me lacking tools

I stumble through, like half a person

As I learn new sets of rules

For the things you taught just don’t add up

I’m left wandering, so numb

Why did you ever have me 

What is yet to come? 

Will I finally shed that lonely tear

I have searched for all this time 

It does not seem so likely 

I’ve looked but cannot find

I wish I could thank you for my life

For years of memories and joy

Instead I thank the Lord above

For sparing me more of you 

Lover

I do not want to miss you

So come here and grab my hand

Smother me with your magical kisses

For a moment, let’s not be friends 

Gather me inside your arms

Throw me down upon the floor

Tear my clothes off, one by one

Make sure you shut the door

Hold my hands above my head

Let our fingers intertwine

Open your eyes and look at me

For this moment you are mine 

A magnetic pull that never dies

Just moves with the changing tide 

Finally coming to its fruition 

For this moment, you are mine 

And all those things we talked about 

All the goosebumps we once shared 

Come together, magically 

As you take me, then and there 

Lay with me a moment more 

Hold me oh so tight 

Get up but do not look back again

As you walk out into the night. 

incognito 

Meet me in a hotel room

The name of which won’t matter 

We only need a bed at most 

And perhaps, a shower 

Grab me as I walk into the room

Kiss me in anticipation

Hurry,  there’s only a few hours  left 

To work out our frustrations 

Throw me down upon the sheets 

Ravage with every caress

Kiss every last inch of me 

Pull my hair, nip at my breast 

Do things to me we spoke about 

And add a few things more 

Take me to heaven, hell and back

As I have never been before 

Then leave me with no promises

We go back now, to just friends 

With a memory to scorch our brains 

Of the night that never ends 

Surrender

She stumbled to the kitchen floor

The bottle in her hand 

She was trying to forget him 

She could no longer understand 

He consumed her waking hours

Even drifted in her dreams

The man she could not ever have 

Her love for him, a tease

She couldn’t cry another tear

So she didn’t even try

She just lay there on that kitchen floor

And hoped that she would die

For then and only then

Would the memory of him depart

It was worth the life she threw away 

To quiet the pain of her heart

The months, they passed

The seasons changed 

She continued on that way

Never knowing that he loved her too

But couldn’t find the words to say

She aged a lifetime in a year

There was no “going back”

Life for her was over

The bottle won its attack

muse me

The ink in my pen has dried now 

Like the tears once on my face 

I look toward each day so nonchalant 

I feel so out of place 

Each day is new and different 

Yet to me they are the same 

Life has lost its spark, it’s luster

Since I last spoke your name

I tried to do what I had to do

Loving another or trying so hard

But at night when I would close my eyes 

My heart defiantly stood

Because as night falls you always come to me

You hold me oh so tight

We dance until the morning 

We kiss all through the night

I laugh as I never laughed before 

I smile, I have no fear

Life is oh so colorful

At night when you are here 

So yes each day lacks sunshine 

Please nighttime, oh please come

So I can close my eyes and find you 

Two empty souls now one
