My Beloved

My beloved
My love for you is ineffable
My one and only love
How can I describe the way

My love for you stretches further than the equator
And I am completely submerged in yours
I'm falling off the edge of my mind
My thoughts
I'm on the brink of loosing it all
This thin line between sane and insanity
You got me
My love for you is hotter than the degree of molten rock
Its so cold that it burns
It vast deeper than the unknown of the universe
I'm so taken
I would travel across this land
To be with you
To touch you with my fingertips
Get lost in those big ol' eyes of yours
Lay on the succulent softness of your lips

My darling
Take my hand and come with me
Journey into the forbidden of unwed lovers
Let me give you a taste of how I feel for you

My love
A full moon isn't quiet as stunning as seeing a smile creep on your
face.
A face that I compare to the Mona Lisa
And the Artwork of Michelangelo
Your beauty surpasses waking up each morning
watching dawn
If you asked me if my love is sincere
I would have to catch my breath
Before I would recite these lines all over again

This love is brimful
This love is pure
The amount of adoration I have for you
Exceeds further than the life I have in store

Sweetheart
My deep and ardent affection grows deeper
Than that of the passion that we share
I can spend the rest of my life
Talking about whimsical things
But this here
Professing my love for you
Seems so much rare

Color Me Blue

Color me blue
I'm in sorrow
I miss you
My other half
With your leaving
I am bruised

I use to dive into your eyes
Swim for hours and never get tired.
Get lost into your soul
And still feel at home.
Pain tugs at my heart
When I think of why we fell apart
Our pride will never allow us to lose;
To bend and take fault
For our actions
And the words that we used

Tell me you love me,
Then take your words back
Show me you care,
But never take it to the next step
I take one step forward,
And you take one back

Like the economy,
We have fallen into recession
And I see no hope of us ascending.
Neither of us willing to let go of our egos
I'll take my heart back
And release yours
To the canopy of stars
Where I sent all my wishes
Of us lasting

I will always love you,
But I realize you will never love me
Like I do you.
Love reciprocated
Love unconditionally
I'm starting to think
that this can only be found in dreams

Test of Strength (A coming of Age Story)

I thought
Age had overcame me
Bludgeoning me with all of its responsibilities
Striking me with much force
A bat of blunt reality

A hit to the head
For this I wasn’t prepared

And expectations of what one must know
Because with age, not treading too far behind there is wisdom
And everyone is
Plucking my brain bare
If it were up to choice they would leave nothing there
Trying to find out all that I know
Challenging me
Pushing
Seeing how far they can go
Oh they didn’t tell you
Its gets harder as you grow

You start with abundance
A childlike innocence
Your whole perspective
Changes when you fall victim
To heartbreak, yes
A heart aches.
Deception and lies
Tricked and fooled
You have just been used
And just like a cut healed leaving a scar
These things shape you
You become immune to
The phony
You see right through
Those who are counterfeit

Now your skin is thick

In life people have tested
I’m sure at one point they have guessed that
I didn’t go through life’s hardening rules
Because I’m so joyful, I put a smile on my face
Never letting the negativity slow down my pace
I tend to shock them, you should see their face
When I flip the roles and pull out that bat of blunt reality
Putting those motherfuckers right back in their place.
