Enchantment

Mesmerized by thoughts of you
Can't help but dream of what you do
You face, your name, your words
Come to me at all hours of night and day
They will not stay away.

A burning desire to know you
What you think, and who you are
I can't bear it when you're far
And yet, you're never too far away

You haunt me when I close my eyes
You can't imagine the surprise
When I feel it all the same
As I'm wide awake

Face flushed a perfect shade of pink
I can't help but wonder what you think
Your body tells me what I do
Unravelled self-defenses.

An alluring intensity
A megawatt smile
Beguiled, arrested
By your silent promise.

You always have enough to give
That generous heart
Captivates and enchants
So much so that when you're gone
There's just a void
Where warmth and comfort usually live.

Parallel lines

We’re a pair of parallel lines You’re just like me We’re on the same path But we don’t ever meet You talk to all my friends  but me I guess I’m not that nice after all You You’re in the house up on a cloud Me I’m on a mission.

The boy who was (never) good enough

I may be off-base But I think I recognize it This desire to give As a way to provide Yourself with a pleasing identity. A way to be loving A way to be loved Giving up your own needs  For the sake of harmony. Did you have a mother who was always sad? Were you the one to delight her? Did you face the pain of choosing a path That took you away or made you unkindly? Was your brother the asshole And you didn’t mind it Because it meant you could be the one To fix feelings all around you. And when you were older Did you pick girls that reminded You of the woman who was always demanding? And did you feel good  When you provided  All of the joy that wasn’t inside her? But when you messed up Were you the same disappointment? The boy who was (never) good enough But couldn’t stop striving. I hope one day you see That you’re worthy of love Without needing to give Or be perfect. Above all I hope you reme...

The angry woman

I am the angry woman I'm bleeding white-hot rage My fury of tears will drown you You should all feel afraid.  My tongue is poised for lashing My feet are here to crush My lungs are filled with fire I cannot stop the rush. My skin is scalding ashes  Of a burning, ember heart My words beat down like hail My screams are lightning darts. Watch me drink the poison And wait for you to die I am the angry woman But you all think I lie.
