Roses are red
Violets are blue…
I think that there is more to that
I remember the first time
You and me
Like it was yesterday
Those big green eyes trying to keep my gaze. Soft lips trying to stay away from mine. A perfect time to fall in love. You mean the world to me and now I know how to express that. A simple “I love you” and a kiss on the side. Is it really that simple? Two bodies collide in a fit of passion trying not to hold back. Gentle nibbling on my lip set me to the right mood and gave me reason too live. You give me reason to live. Reason to stand up and scream for freedom and rebellion. A reason to fight the wrong and live for the right. You gave me more than you will ever know. And more than I could ever express. I try in words and motion but nothing will ever seem good enough for you. Not even me. You deserve the world and the stars and all that is deemed romantic but all that I can give you is love and compassion. I hope that is enough. Do you remember the first time? You and me. Like it was yesterday.
Silence fills the room while you read of politics and life overseas.
A land and time far from us that you so deeply care about
All I want to do is watch you grow
Gain wisdoms beyond mine with the power of a question
Keep the hope alive for our future
Caffeine, Sugar and Cream
I wish you could see the real me
The me that no one sees
But I really don’t know who he is
Maybe the dark and evil inside
The love and passion outside
Or the one that is very hidden away
I forget the real reasons for all of this
Fall back into my mind fuck and drift away
Do you take it all for granted knowing I will be there when you wake?
I try not to
Maybe dead and gone and almost forgotten
I see your tired little face
All that you take on eating you alive
Needing to let go of the hang up
And the past of nothing that meant a thing
So let yourself fade away and become whom you really want
