I Hope You Know

I hope you know that I will never judge you.
I hope you know that I will always care.
I hope you know that you can always trust me.
I hope you know that I will keep you safe.
I hope you know that I want to be better
I hope you know that you have made me strong,
I hope you know that in me you have someone
I hope you know that I won't let you fall.

Thoughts going a million miles a second hit zero in no time,
And the stress in my veins evaporates quickly.
The same thoughts in my head cycle around
And I think for a moment, "This needs to stop, it's too much".
I wonder sometimes if the high is just high
Or if I'm really on the ledge looking down at the tide...
Am I ready to jump? Should I stand for a while?
Come to me now, and define the lines,
Or blur it together and let us survive?
Let me jump into the unknown
And hit the rocks at the speed of sound...
Suspend me in time and space before the end
And show me, your piece of heaven.
Should I jump, or should I stand for a while?
Am I ready for the answer or should I just wait it out?

Impeccable

In a world where no one's good enough, to me you're perfect.
The sly smiling, the gentle touch, the intelligence... so sexy.
I wouldn't change a thing, I wouldn't criticize
Because to me, you're without flaw, you're mine.

Fuck You

Fuck you darling for making me feel meaningless,
You stripped the dignity from my walking away
And although it was so hard to do, I do not regret it.
You didn't want me, really, love
If you had, I would have stayed...
But hey, you have her in your bed
And mine is not too big.
I'll miss you darling and your wonderful words
While I'm hidden behind him...
Scary movies, funny dates.
He does make me feel better.
So Fuck you , love, for breaking me to pieces,
But thank you, for you have made me realize
That "gentlemen" are mean and careless lovers,
And 'boys' are so much kinder than you pricks.
I'm happy now, despite the crying, darling
And I don't regret a thing you and I had
But dearest, don't ruin it for me...
I'm happy where I am with him.

You Break My Heart

You break my heart with sharpened words and all I've done is meaningless,
The barriers that kept you safe mean nothing now to you...
And although I contemplate releasing them and just walking away
I can't help wondering, my dear, if I would be okay.

You break my heart with empty words and all I feel is emptiness,
My hopes crashed hard and I believe that only one was true...
I try too hard to find some answers but nothing comes to mind
And when the night does turn to day I still can't still my thoughts.

You break my heart with thoughtless words and all I want is pointless,
There's nothing that I cannot lose if I were to keep you,
But see, my darling, all is lost and you have torn me down,
I'm all alone, I'm too afraid, and I will not see the dawn.

You broke my spirit with empty promises
You dragged me close with visions of forever,
You let me leave with venomous words
When you should have been my lover.
It's all too late the night has left
And I have left with it...
Don't worry love, I'm still around
But I am just a spirit.

Tonight (2)

Tonight we sleep together, hidden from the world.
Tonight we kiss for hours, without thought of consequence.
Tonight we run from everything, and leave it all behind.
Tonight we come together, and reach the sky above.

Tonight.

Game

Feeling like a child again, my thoughts disheveled
I fantasize and play around within my mind...
The butterflies moved upstream into my blood,
And in my heart the drumming got worse.
Thoughts of you sneak in my head,
And I start blushing and smiling innocently,
Because you, darling, drive me insane however,
I'm good at this game.

Wake Up Smiling

I see visions of you inside my head and I wake up smiling again.
With eyes wide closed and snuggled in the covers,
I feel safe and loved, and I am warm and calm.
But when the sandman comes, I'm always sad and scared
Because the demons come and the nightmares suck,
But lately, they've been kept away by someone. You.
I dream of being hidden in your arms and I wake up smiling again.
Falling asleep and running through the mazes is always nerve-wrecking,
An endless chase to hit the finish line in time to catch you
And often, I am quite successful
I dream of being hidden in your arms and I wake up smiling again.
I smell you inside my dreams and I wake up smiling again.
I feel you wrapped around me and I wake up smiling again.

Tonight

Between parted lips a cry escapes tonight,
Between silky sheets two bodies move in silence...
With velvet skin that touches in most places
The night is young and we have barely made it,
But relax, dear one, keep yourself contained
Since the sky is cloudy and it hasn't rained
We'll stay here tonight, safe in this room
Between soft sheets and just me and you...
There's no moon tonight the lights have dimmed a bit
But in our paradise, we do not need a thing!

Between parted lips, a cry escapes tonight
And darling, nothing ever felt this right.
Because the moon is gone, the rain has come
And now, now it's your turn
So sigh for me.

Chocolate

Caress my lips and bring me to the edge,
In this moment I am yours to take...
You smell entirely too good,
I cannot have enough and do not wish to stop!
Envelop me in ecstasy and make me cry for more..
Allow me to beg like I have before.
Alone, between the sheets, it is but you and I...
Wouldn't trade it for the world for you
Are much better than chocolate.

So many...

A Toast to Us

From darker corners vampires come out to feed themselves,
And in the moonlit nights I spend my time alone...
The darkness calls to me and beckons me to join them
But in your presence, my thirst knows no end.
I smell you from a distance and see the consequence,
I bite my tongue from speaking and calling you to me
But darling, let me show you the power that is mine
In the forest's clearing beneath the starlit sky.
Take this knife of yours and trace along your skin
Allow me to awaken the beast sleeping within...
The lust, the trust, the fear will feed my endless thirst
And at the end, when all is said and done
My dear, lay back and learn the payment that is given
The heights you will caress... the moonlit innocence
Of bloodied consequence.
From darker corners vampires come out to feed
But you and I, my dear, are safe within this dream.

Claim

Y outh presents us with many opportunities
O utside the normal circumstances we experience,
U ntil we realize we have a person to make it all worthwhile.

A nd as we realize this, a chance we must take to
R ender us victorious in this entire game
E nough to make a difference in this lustful flame.

M any hours spent talking to each other
 I  nevitable attraction developing once more...
N evermind the darkness, the fighting and the fear
E veryone knows I already made my claim.

Clearing the cobwebs off of an infected mind,
Using soap and water to wash the spots of time,
Trying to unleash a power most discreet
Upon innocent hearts and fight defeat.

Misunderstood

I never understood the nature of temptation
You either want the lust or want the affection,
The balance of the both is very hard to see
I either fancy you and you don't fancy me...
Or you fancy me and I don't look at you,
Or if we both do, we cannot make it true.
A paradox of nature, a problem most complete,
Based on insecurities of those in need...
Begging for a solution, or begging for the truth...
A screw it, I just want you.

Making Sense

Through the shadows of a meaningless existence
I have found salvation in your gold embrace,
And in the final moments it was all erased
In a short moment of doubt and innocence.
With a reluctant heart I make myself step forward
In the moonlit spot that I will use tonight
To spill the contents of my clouded mind,
To open the very doors of salvation,
To bury myself in all these complications.

Confessions, not those stained with sin,
Should stay hidden within the fabric of creation
Far from lover's eyes, and far from lover's truths
For volatile emotions could spark a lover's fight
And then, the end of time could open up the box
Pandora has left out to call again the darkness and the pain,
The fear, the constant battle to say what's on the mind,
To purge the sins of past, to open up the heart
Of lovers' unrequited love.

Crush

C arefully aligned moments
R eady for a jump start,
U nusual circumstances
S atisfying hearts... Please,
H urry up.

Something About you

There's something about being pinned against the wall,
With your teeth on my neck and your breath on my shirt.

There's something about being kissed forcefully
With your cold sculpted body pressed into me.

There's something about being told to hold you closer
While your lips trace the line of my neck.

There's something about the smell of your skin
While you're close to me, still wet.

There's something about the taste of your tongue
With your hands in mine on the wall...

There's something about the innocent kiss
While you're making your original promise.

Foggy

A snake in movements, fox in laughter
And liquid as bath water,
Confusing like the densest fog
And yet, I'm yours to slaughter.

There's something infuriating about the way you look at me.
There is amusement in your eyes and intangible emotions!
The crooked smile that draws me in while venomous words are spilling,
And somehow I can't help myself from being nearer.
I pride myself on eloquence, on my vocabulary
But somehow when you are around, the words just fail me.
The silky thoughts inside my head get knotted into cobwebs,
And all the social skills I learned just leave me.
I'd sit besides you on a beach in stormy weather,
Just waiting for the sunrise and for something better.
I'd hold my tongue and pause my thoughts and wouldn't blink an eye,
For in a moment, it'd be over, it would be a lie.

Poker Night

Don't call me. I'm not answering
It's just me and my demons tonight and it's all right.
We're having a drink and unwinding a bit,
We're fighting within the original sin
And it's fine, I don't mind it tonight.
Don't message me, tonight I'm not on
And it's fine, we're having fun.
Maybe one too many drinks to offer incentive,
To keep us attentive,
To raise the bid to the next level
Baby, tonight I'm a devil.
Don't stop by, the door will be chained,
Salt will be spilled to keep us contained
I'm aware of the screams of despair,
But my dear, players beware
The entering price is one to suffice,
The soul of the player bound in lies.
Don't panic my dear if I'm gone for a while,
The atmosphere is still volatile
And although hostile, Hot and be as it may,
No one but me can keep them at bay.

The demons have left and I'm still in bed,
No aspirin for my aching head...
It's been one hell of a night and it is all right...
They'll be back tonight to finish the fight,
To win back the souls I won out of spite.

Asleep

There's a bond that solidifies the line in the sand,
And I can feel you, distantly, in the night.
A piece of my soul locked into yours
And when I close my eyes, we are safe.
Butterfly wings hold us asleep,
And with butterfly kisses we reunite once more
Because when the sun sets it's all easy again,
And I, once again, am content.

Fix

No rhyming, no crying, no shouting, no fighting
The end of an era is close to its grave,
The innocence spilling in half broken glasses,
The innocent fall to their knees.
We need to discuss this, we need to unwind
So finally open this bottle of wine
And bring it to me, right to my lips
Like a kiss, fixing all that is broken within.

Between broken hearts and shattered dreams
How do teach this to teens? How do we speak
Of a love so deep, knowing we're as confused as they are?
No fighting my dear, it's over and out
The night has progressed as far as it can.
Surrender yourself, surrender your dreams
Trust your gut, it is like it seems...
And trust me, darling, fix what's broken within.

No crying, the well has dried up,
The river is flowing, the bridge overhead has collapsed.
It can get better and it can get worse, but as it well seems
These broken dreams will hold you afloat.
Finish the bottle, throw it away,
Break all the glasses that led you astray
And remember, my dear, it's too late
You fixed nothing and I faded away.

Dust

Your words, like blades, slit through my skin
And expose the decay of the sinning within me.
The acid spews forth from that smart mouth of yours
And in the dead of night, I am naked.
Battle cries, sighs of exhaustion, and lies...
All pouring out on the concrete,
And when the night turns to day
All the decay will get lost from sight
As the dust settles.
