I hate love
It never leaves you alone
Clawing, whispering at you
And it, in its full glowing form never stays long
But its ghost never leaves.

A song creeps onto my speakers
And I’m there
Brushing your hair off your face
Grossly in love
Holding you so close.

And I can’t exorcise it
I’ve purged you
Deleted your existence from my life
But I can’t delete that love
And its lingering too long.

And I’m exhausted, haunted
By something long dead
That I’ve buried
I’ve found out
Love’s flame is eternal, isn’t it.

I've missed you bad for so long now
I've shed a many tear
Still looking for that special day
You'll calmly re-appear!
I never had a single doubt
When you became my wife
We'd be together for all time
Not be apart for life!
I'm ripped apart and broken now
I'm crumbling from the pain
My life without you by my side
Can't ever be the same!
I still have dreams you're with me here
You never walked away
But then I wake up by myself
To face another day!
I'm lost without you in my life
It's harder than it seems
What's harder than to live alone -
To live with shattered dreams!
I look for you near everyday
To walk back in the door
I still hold tight, so badly want
The love we had before!
I never knew what lonely was,
Now its my biggest fear
To live my life all by myself
So lost and lonely dear!

i.
running through
time and space,
I happen upon you
dancing with someone else--

you sway,
she leans
and I sulk for
losing my chance--

eventually I'll have the nerve
to ask you to dance,
to grace the world
with your radiance
and I'll bask in blissful
happiness as you look at me
and only me amidst the Others--

This time last year,
I thought I was the ****.
Turns out I was not the ****.
This year, I am the ****.
I am the ****

This world she is pubescent,
she is insecure,
she is wild a beautiful
she is wonderful
and she knows it.
yet many of mankind choose to be a zit
on their mothers face,
and so few a twinkle in her eye.
Be kind everyone.

Haunt me and seek me
Striving your whole life for me
Make it your life's goal

I will restrict you
You will be looked at with shame
Unexpected fear

Do not wait too long
A disappearance with hope
Shines like a shadow

Your cycle is solved
Patience now, avoid this mess
Misery no more

From, Love

Tomorrow will be like today’s shadows
since there is no time-
You can come with the chapters of tears-
I will outline the story with my eyes.
The fight was in our touch
the lone-ness, filled in our hearts
and yet, we became mapped out like
           the linen ocean
Across the stars.

I wish you could understand Spanish
Because then you could see that I, my tongue,
moves like a beach wood guitar.
                   (Presently)
the Sand that comes to these lips,
is left to those unafraid to loose the shore.

The salted winds of my skin,
trusted with the rusted jewelry of timelessness-
  ironically gives me the freedom to dance
like my mother, the foamed Wave.
The Mother of Death kissed you.

You've always been so loud.
Yelling, and throwing my insecurities out for all the neighbors to see. Embarrassing me. Your voice is so annoying it's depressing me. With thoughts of my lows and rarely thoughts of my highs.

I've become good at tuning you out. But on lonely days where your words seem so right I can't help but to get drunk off that cup of misery. But I'm tired of hanging with you - you simply make me so blue.

And it's hard to get away from your words, let alone break away from you.

So why don't I try something new. Your bags are packed and the über man's waiting- to take you - somewhere where lonely hearts go to do exactly what it is you like to do.

I realize that no matter how big our hands is, Or how wide we stretch our finger
Our hands will always be too small
To hold everyone we love
So if someone you loves leave your hands, say thank you for the valuable lesson they had taught you and continue to hold on to those that still stay with you no matter what happen.
