Poem: "Want To Be"

"Want To Be"

The one you wake up next to
every morning
the spring in your step
the song in your heart

The sky, the stars
and every beautiful thing
in the world

The thought that
you can't get out of your mind
the one desire you can't get enough of

The love that you've always wanted

These are just some of the things
I want to be for you
someday.

Poem: "The Light"

"The Light"

The warmth of sunshine on your bare skin
the way you lie against me
the shape of your smile
the scent of your perfume as it lingers in the air
long after you've gone

The emptiness now
makes my bones ache
and the memories of
unbridled need and passion
ended too soon

Your breath
as the light shines
one final time
and eternity embraces you
like a long lost lover

As I watch silently
my heart breaks
into a million
pretty little fragments.
