Imagining You

I can feel your touch,
the sweet embraces,
and the beating of your heart.

you're not reaLly there
it's simply a ghOstly imprint
haunting me while we're liVing
apart, alone, singly, separeatEly

You're back home.
schOol has me here
jUst waiting to see you again.

Fun with Picnik. I get bored.

i less than 3 u

when you grab my hand,
you've got a hold on my heart.
I want to share my world with you,
every little part.

the butterflies in my stomach
never go away
and when you come to visit me
I always want you to stay

I'd give my heart away to you,
over and over, every time,
because you really are "the best
thing that's ever been mine"

titleless

My guiding light,
a loving friend,
a patient lover,
quietly waiting
for me to come home





Nothing's impossible when I'm with you
as we explore the world
and life together
seeking adventure and danger
in a cautious world

You.

You have so many little quirks.
They define you,
make you who you are.
It's these little things
that drive me crazy,
make me love you.

Your steadfast love of the Brown
Your retainer,
impeding your desire to eat freely,
Your obsession with T Swift.
Your incredible imagination.
How you're always cold.

The things that you do.
The way you make me laugh,
all the time.
The way you move my hair
out of my face,
just to have to fall back.
The way you wrap your
arms around me.
My heart skips a beat every time.

I love when your fingers
are between mine...
the way you can just smile
and melt my heart.
To put it simply,
I love you.

Dedicated to a Friend.

From car rides full of laughter,
a friendship grew.
Strong and trusting,
allowing for many truths.
Unwittingly allowing for...

No, no confessions here.
Not today..
This ones' for you, about you.

You're witty, and charming,
a great friend to have.
Time passed, and memories made,
conversations had..
many amazing and deep,
many light and comical,
some quite sad but necessary.

So much to say, but how to keep it short.
A haiku for you!

You are amazing,
just as you are, yes, just you,
my dearest friend, Chris.

Frustrating Love; Loving Frustrations

Loving you is very frustrating for me... mostly because I love you but you frustrate me..

The Sun Against the Lake

Cotton candy skies
lovely shimmering water
the Pink meets the Blue

Wanted: Stability

all i want is some stability
in family, in friends,
some consistency of wellness
tired of always being let down,
lost,
and pushed to the side

it amazes me how much theatre mirrors life, scenes changing, sometimes mistakes happen, people always entering and exiting...

Releasing Emotion

Writing flourishes
quick fingers against the keys
sweet release, deep breath

Volcanic Frustrations

Frustrations mounting
like erupting volcanoes.
you're only a friend

Haiku Poem.

tired of trying
impossible to love you
you make it that way

want to feel your touch
want to make you understand
want to make you mine

hope, pain, desire
floating in my heart and soul
you are standing there

you do not see me
standing here, waiting, hoping,
aching for your love.

Trains

I can hear the train
whistling
in the near distance
(as it dashes by)
signaling only to the moon.

It passes fast,
as does life.
Gliding smoothly on its tracks
passing much
stopping some.

Elegant and strong,
but so easily derailed
so easily disturbed
by disaster,
by death.

Wonderland

As music softly plays,
I nod off.
Through the rabbit hole I go,
unwilling to stay awake.

Tea parties and unbirthday cake,
singing flowers and smoking catepillars,
an evil queen who wears a heart
but has none.
"Off with her head!"
This dream has become a nightmare.

Cymbal CRASH!
Back in the world of men,
groggy eyes
longing to drift back off.
I check the time.
Oh dear! I'm Late!

An Attempt at Haiku

Round and full of light
a zealous eye in the sky
the moon stares me down


Waltzing gracefully
prince charming for a partner
'Twas merely a dream


We have a large box
full of such things as rainbows.
Imagination


Bitter winds blow past
Hair covers my face and eyes
Thoughts do not need sight


Daytime river walk
Bare feet in the clear water
Look! There goes a fish!


Comfort in a hug
Assurance in the silence
Contentment with you


Contours below me
Circular shapes above me
God's beautiful art


It's an addiction
once you start there's no stopping
Haikus take over


Magnificent orbs
burning throughout the day but
staining the night sky

A flower in rain
lovers grow by suffering
blooming together
