Sometimes I miss you like crazy and even in the haze I search for your face. Though you play peek-a-boo with my heart and I said I wouldn’t let myself be dependent on you for my happiness, well the fact is I’m rather bi-polar over you. When you shine my way, what can I say? I grow in your presence, I lift my face to the sky in your presence and when you’ve had your fill and leave me wanting, I’m going down like a MJB song. I guess that’s how it will remain, never truly sane without you. Through the cold and the blazing heat, it’s you that I need, I see. You bring out the best in me, your smile warms the very flesh of me… so while you play your crazy game, my voice though off key will sing the same “ODE TO SUNSHINE”…

Living for your touch like

Without it I would die

Living for your smile like

Without it I would cry

Living for your arms like

Without them I can’t feel

Living for your mind like

Without it I can’t deal

Living for your seed like

Without it I can’t grow

Living for your love like

I never want to know

Living without it…

Looking out into the sea of her fears the rough waters reflected back

each unfulfilled hope and dream and all the faith she lacked

But seeing the other ships sail abroad of various lengths and breadths

she closed her eyes, felt the hand of God took a breath then took… a step.

And she did not sink.

He tuned out the world and turned down the lights

Turned off his phone and exhaled the fight

Tensions released, the job the hood and such

gave over to the night and surrendered to her touch…

Trying to get myself to my “creative” place. Feeling rather off kilter today. Thinking positive thoughts to get back there…
