living in the embrace

just as your arms
draped around my shoulder
time stood still
my hands lay gently against your waist
and
time
stood
still
our bodies blended
as we stood chest to chest
and our hearts spoke to each other like morse code
symbols and signals replaced words
our touch guided our thoughts
your lips pressed against my neck
and
time
stood
still
we closed our eyes
and our minds began to run hand in hand
this was all i ever needed
we
put aside our past
worked through our present
and became our future
we were our own moment in time
our own movement
our own revolution
and it all started
just as your arms
draped around my shoulder
time stood still
my hands lay gently against your waist
and
time
stood
still
our bodies blended
as we stood chest to chest
and our hearts spoke to each other like morse code
symbols and signals replaced words
our touch guided our thoughts
your lips pressed against my neck
and
time
stood
still
we closed our eyes
and our minds began to run hand in hand
this was all i ever needed
we
put aside our past
worked through our present
and became our future
we were our own moment in time
our own movement
our own revolution
and it all started
just as your arms
draped around my shoulder
time stood still
my hands lay gently against your waist
and
time
stood
still
our bodies blended
as we stood chest to chest
and our hearts spoke to each other like morse code
symbols and signals replaced words
our touch guided our thoughts
your lips pressed against my neck
and
time
stood
still
we closed our eyes
and our minds began to run hand in hand
this was all i ever needed
we
put aside our past
worked through our present
and became our future
we were our own moment in time
our own movement
our own revolution
and it all started
just as your arms draped
around my shoulder
time stood still
my hands lay gently against your waist

this was all i ever needed

and became our future
we were our own moment in time
our own movement
our own revolution
and it all started
just as your arms
drapped around my shoulder

slow down

slow grind
slow wind
i look up and see you
your hips
slow move
slow grove
flowing back and forth
to the rhythm of songs playing in your mind
your eyes closed
as my hands
slow glide
slow ride
the waves of your frame
keeping your movement fluid like water
wet
slow groan
slow moans
fill the air
taking me beyond esctasy
leaving we in the grips of lust
until both of us
begin to tense up
and rush
slow flow
slow glow
slow wild
slow smile
slow down

weather man

she blew in
like a warm wind from my past
excited my life
like the threat of a hurricane
i just needed time to get things in order
she
made me remember what it was like to be in love again
and then
she was gone
just as quickly as she came
she left
left me to wonder
left me with questions
left me alone
she blew in
like a warm wind
and wrapped her hands around my heart
she promised me forever
and with her i would have stayed
but
just as quickly as she blew in
she
was
gone
and as i stood under the impending clouds of rain
i prayed for warm winds
to comfort my cold nights
prayed for middle of the day highs
with no lows
prayed for sunshine
but
"aint no sunshine when she's gone
its not warm when she's away
aint no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone to long
anytime she goes away"
so i pray
that one day
she will come
and stay forever
i pray
that she would just
blow this way again

eulogy

no one knew
so when they asked
I could only respond
"he's fine"
they couldn't see that death had filled your heart
I mourned
because I knew
I cried
because I hurt
I let go
because I was done
and on the wings of my last prayer your soul flew away
and I asked HIM to keep it
until your body was able to catch up
Amen

yes

i can still taste you
dripping down the side of my face
like ice cream in the summer heat
i began to lick my lips
and yes
i
can still taste you
every
inch of your being
has filled my soul
and my mind
continues to dance with thought
of your body
sitting against my lips
until your soul starts to
SCREAM
and yes
i
can still taste you
i close my eyes
and pretend
as if we
just got started
my lips glide down your neck
and rest between your breast
my tongue tickles its way past your navel
until
i
find a reason to stop
my fingers play with your heartbeat until
i
u
we
yes
i can
still taste you

pieces of you

this was more than temptation
my every waking moment
was wrapped in desire
i wanted to set your soul on fire
my hands couldnt stop touching you
even if i wanted them to
my eyes stared
as if i had seen heaven
you sent me to a place that i forgot existed
and when we had to walk away
there was so much i wanted to say
so much i wanted to do
somewhere i wanted to be
but i knew that night couldn't have been our forever
so as we began
to go our seperate ways
and you asked if i had something to say
or why i just stared at you in that way
i wanted to scream
STAY
but i knew it wouldnt have happened that way
so i pressed my lips against your lips
drapped my hands around your hips
and when you looked away
i closed my eyes
just so my mind
could keep
pieces of you

hello again

southern miss
i didnt know what i had missed
until she
said
hello again
this time
wasnt like the first time
because
somewhere in my mind
i could still remember
how we
made me feel
together i walked on clouds
and when she left
i began falling
i kept falling
but she
said hello again
and in that instant
my soul began to float
my spirit began to rise
my heart began to flutter
and i
remembered how being in love felt
i remembered ?uiet converstions
and romantic situations
and being wrapped in her southern twang
i remembered the way she would say may name
i
remembered my hands caressing her frame
i remembered losing her - to busy playing games
but she
said hello again
and i went from fallen to lifted
lacking to gifted
scarred to healed
empty to filled
all because
she took the time
just to say
hello again
