When We Listen

I’ve been thinking of you! Thinking how blue your eyes are How red your lips How tender yet strong your finger tips. The strength of your arms when I’m wrapped inside The taste of your tongue when it meets mine. I’ve been thinking of you~ I’ve been dreaming of touching you Dreaming of having you touch me Getting all excited just thinking how much fun it would be I know where I would linger the most Where my fingers would trace While enjoying that look on your face. I’ve been thinking of you~ I’ve seen where you would touch me  I’ve guided your fingers to those places Feeling you touch me as I ask Feeling how strongly you react Hearing your breathing take a turn Feeling the spinning of the room Having your body so close to mine Moving in rhythm No care for time. I’ve been thinking of you~ Lying next to me Tired and yet still hungry Ready to take another spi

The light that was once so bright Is hiding behind the night. The stars that danced Now stationary The moon Has looked the other way. Water falling from sad eyes. Lips forgetting how to smile. Arms with no one to embrace. A Heart slowing down its pace. Being lost and unfound Unsure of shaky ground. Standing alone,  amongst the trees, Waiting for water to cover me. No warmth between these hills No direction to follow  For one moment may I ask to borrow? Mountains hiding an unknown tomorrow. Waiting to know what I have forgotten Hoping to see past the night Looking for solid ground. Asking anyone Find me.

It wasn't what I thought ~at all There was no writing on the wall It seemed to want to be held It shone so bright I was under its spell The red that glowed Seemed to fill the room All from a flowers bloom? But as I approached To breathe in the sight I noticed a dimmer light Thorns drawn Blood flows Everyone had to know? All but me It wasn't to be This rose was for Another Or, was this how it's to be? Capture me in your beauty Fill my senses with your perfume Ask me to reach for you Then open up a wound? I will go And leave you here If it's another you wait for. But know~  I will heal And we may meet again But your beauty,  for me, Will have faded by then.
