Boy Meets Girl
Boy Meets Girl
One glance is the warning to the coming attractions.
One kiss seals the deal, like in a game of poker.
Will each player play his or her cards correctly or
get played?
Falling in love, each moment more important than the next.
First, infatuation, past the getting-to-know-you phase.
I can now read your soul, with one glance before
my eyes temporarily close in a blink.
We then agree to promise each other
that we will stick together,
from now, being young and fresh,
to becoming old and expired.
Loving both the exterior and interior forevermore.

Footprints
Footprints
are like mirrors,
reflecting their owner.
The path of life
has many footprints.
All you need
to do is:
Find yours.

I Hate That I Love YOU
Your bobbily nature gets me so riled up,
H
G
I
I go from H
To L
O
W
in a matter of minutes maybe even seconds, but who’s counting
the amount of times I’ve smiled because of you...the tears
that have dampened my endlessly-wrung pillow that sits on my bed,
my haven when the lights in life seem to dim...
The power just turned itself back on...I
laugh. You made a joke in my favor...
Thanks for the face lift, Bobblehead.
Now you seem to ignore me and your
face resembles a punching bag...
I’ve got my boxing gloves on...yeah, I didn’t think so.
Glad you realized your mistake because I didn’t
really want to hurt you in the first place.
Being that I love you so much...
Yeah, I’m gonna say it...
I Hate that I Love YOU...
I fall into your arms. This time, they open to clasp my heart
inside them.
I’ll forgive you...for now.

A Sonnet 4 U
How do I love thee, let me count the ways.
I love thee from thy top of thy head to the bottom of thy feet.
I live because thee live.
I love thee to the depths of my soul and beyond.
I drown in thy eyes as if I cannot swim.
I love thy freely, and try to become better and better.
I love thy smile, it lights up my life like the sun.
I admire thee in all that thy do, no matter what it may be.
I love thy laugh, it gives my heart wings.
Every time I talk to thee, chills run down my spine.
I know thee cares for me as much as I care for thee.
Thy sympathizes for me when I am sad.
Thy makes me feel as light as a feather, floating on cloud nine.
Looking at thee, I am reminded how lucky I am to have thee by my side.
