“With you by my side…”

**this started as a one sentence text message…

You have been on my mind since I woke up. I thought about the embrace we shared Saturday night. It led me to 2 places. The painfully obvious one is that now I miss you. Like crazy. The other being that it is one of my favorite moments. It’s one of the little moments you want to keep forever. To stay bound in the warmth. In the love. Wrap myself up in the soft blanket of comfort that you provide. The bigger, more overt gestures are every bit as meaningful but the little moments, that often aren’t even thought about, they stick with me. And mean more then you’ll ever know. when we saw Lana. In the short line to get “checked” by security outside, you did your patented “big move”. Hugged me from behind. Then as we strolled in together you made it a point to grab my hand and hold it. It was a wonderful evening from beginning to end. But those 2 little things made all the difference. You have this way of making it feel like we’re the only 2 people in world. I get lost in the majesty of your eyes and splendor that is your smile. In that floating space in time; I could die. Nothing is more perfect. The lights are on but your glow illuminates the room. Illuminates my life, my passion. We’ve yet so far to go, but every encounter we have feels like an eternity. Even before we depart I’m longing to once again be a part of your existence. Enveloped in your aura. I’ll live in my dream, just until we meet again, Love.

*halfway thru I put The xx – Open Eyes (demo) on. To create the proper atmosphere to continue writing this. I also put it on the list 😉

Just a glimpse

Another one of the moments that almost was but never came to be… Although eventually had our moment(s)

 

We are in another place surrounded by people. This time it is at the movie theatre. The both of us on our 2nd viewing of The Avengers. It the midst of our awe of the “3-D” viewing of the movie; I began a little dance, as I often do. I believe you said that I was cute. I didn’t quite hear you and asked for you to repeat yourself. [we talk during movies. Everyone hates it. But it’s one of my favorite things ever] Just as you did. It happened. Time literally stood still. I could see the dust suspended in the air. I caught my glimpse of you. THE GLIMPSE to end all glimpses. Even with them heavy 3D glasses. You were IT. The light against your deliciously soft skin, with the darkness swallowing everything around you; I wanted nothing more than to press my lips against yours before enduring a battle of tongues that would last an eternity. In that split second I came up with a million reasons to hold back. The one that truly stopped me was rejection. Idk that we would’ve made it this far if I went in and came out with my lips untouch. And when I saw you? I think you knew. Alas, I saved the meeting for another rendezvous. Immediately I regretted it. I’m a man of expression and risks. What’s another rejection from you gonna do? Tear my soul apart? Been there… I kept it inside though, fearing that what we were building (whatever it was) needed more time. All was not lost however. For you spoke words to me you had not uttered in just about 2 years (give or take a couple months either way). I LOVE YOU. And so ended our night (in the physical presence at least). I wasn’t truly convinced until a few weeks later when the flame was finally officially rekindled. But it was the first affirmation that I was headed in the right direction….

Take it away

You leave me speechless.
The words to describe your beauty are stripped from my tongue
I’m left shaking my head in disbelief.
The glow of your smile. The light in your eyes. The aura of sex you exude.
It’s all mine.
And when I step back to look. I’m left with nothing to say
What is there to say?
For perfection
For love manifested in a physical form right before me
In silence we take hands.
Lock eyes.
Embrace.
Let our mouths meet and do all the “talking”.
Let passion tell our story.
Let love BE our story.
When we come up for air. We’re all alone in a room full of people.
They stare. In anger. Disgust. Jealousy.
Jealous of You. Me. WE.
Us.
I’ve caught my breath. That means its time to lose it again.

In each other

You got me smilin just because
Who cares if the clouds blocking the sun
I care not of the distance between us.
In our hearts we’re always side by side
Supporting and uplifting
Souls intertwined
We couldn’t escape the promise of a lifetime
So we’ve been givin another lifeline
We had to grow apart to grow together
This time. We found forever
Right in front of our faces; it had been where it always was
In each other.

“we could make this work…maybe” – Emeli Sande

I have even more music to feed my heart and soul. And just might be my favorite. This UK import is absolutely mesmerizing. I’ll get discouraged by her realist lyrics. And just as well I’ll be encouraged by her words of hope. Her voice is angelic. I believe in love. I hope her music can help guide me when I need it most. If not? At least I REALLY enjoy the album. Which re-releases stateside in early June. June 5th I believe (don’t quote me).

Chasing

Love I should let you go
You’ve been no good to me
No good for me
Wasting my existence chasing you
When you show no signs of life
For me
Can’t enjoy anything
You’ve ruined everything
What’s worse is we both know where you should be
But I can’t let go
Won’t leave it alone
There’s more than just the surface.
I know you all too well
I’d much rather live in hell
So I guess I do it to myself
Keep you tucked away on the top shelf
Never to have but always to remember
JUST maybe one day we’ll dust it off
Try again? I thought you’d never ask
And you haven’t.
Life everywhere but I’m on this lonely planet
Prisoner of the mind. Chains around my heart
There’s no REstart
Staring at the sky’s blue
Only thought: I got my eyes on you

Is it enough?

Let you go
At least I thought so
Now I’m holding on
There’s something there
Always has been
Probably always will be
Is it enough?
That’s the question that needs to be answered
Of course I say YES
And even if you agree
Will you act?
Will you come back?
I say YES
But I live in a fantasy world where my dreams are a possibility
In reality? I’m prepared to fall short and live in purgatory
For this is my dream and I’m determined to live it
The consequences for failure are more than worth it
My scars have shown. The wounds stay open.
They’ll get no deeper.
There’s nothing left to lose

I don’t wanna be your friend

I don’t wanna be your friend
I look over and see that smile.
I melt.
I look into your eyes.
It takes me back to everything I felt
But it’s not in the past
It’s present
You’re in my presence and I can’t help myself
Standing by your side.
Dying slowly
Painfully
I can’t let go there’s too much history.
Loving you is simply misery
Maybe if it was reciprocated I’d be in the heavens
Instead you’ll find me below
A lost soul.
