Take Me As I Am
A tremor will rattle
the earth on the day
I meet you.
The depths of the auras that surround us
intercircling each other
will tell the moon to appear
with the sun.
I pray that when I embrace you,
you become something that won't slip through
my fingers. You don't fade away
like a mismatched radio signal.
Tell me you will keep your feet glued by
my side, you won't compare me and trade me in
like a fad for a newer trend.
I will keep wishing for the day,
I can look you in the eyes
and know I finally found what
I always confused for you
before that day.
Now, I let you go like a captured
butterfly but you flutter back to me,
only to tell me that you are ready
to just love me, no exceptions
or trade- ins.
Just a whole complete love
you might only experience from above.

The Rose
The rose
Blossoms from a small seed.
Becomes something everyone
Loves.
Then wilts away into something
Everyone hates.
Then
The rose
Dies leaving behind
A memory.

Tonka
With every word
he speaks...
my heart drips
blood
never stopping to
release
the air inside
me.
The stars glisten
in our eyes
as they twinkle
in the sky.
It feels so good
to know
we are meant
to be.

Toy Recall
Your blue eyes wash
over my soul,
stopping my heart,
mid-rhythm.
I try to forget you
but I cannot seem
to shake the thought
that you care.
I wonder why you
let her control you
like her own personal puppet,
instead of a boyfriend.
Be free, Pinocchio.
Don't you know
you're a real boy?
You have a beating heart
and free will.
Make the choice;
communicate with me.
There is only so much
you can say
with your eyes.
