What to Say

Here I am writing

         What to say

         What to say

 

Here I am laying trying to put on paper what’s in my heart.

         What to say

         What to say

 

It’s not hard, a lot of people do it

         What to say

         What to say

 

Why can’t I think of a way to tell you what I want

         What to say

         What to say

 

All I can think of is this:

 

What to say

         About you

What to say

         About me

What to say

         About us

What to say

12 O’clock

At 12:00 O’clock I’m writing these words
I’m letting you know what’s on my mind.

I can’t make promises to you
I don’t want to be like the rest.

I can only tell you what I know.

You called me your best friend,
That has never been said to me before.

You told me you love me
That has never been said to me before.

Our friendship means so much

I don’t expect anything from you other then what you are.
I can’t give you anything other then myself.

Many have said these words are too strong, they may be,
but they are what’s on my mind.

When our bodies meet there is no greeter feeling that goes through me.
It is unreal the feelings I have when we touch.

I will be by your side for as long as you want.
I will be there as your friend or as your beloved.

I can’t make any promises so I won’t.

Understand that there is nothing I wouldn’t do for you,
as your friend or as your beloved.

Some have called my words too powerful; they could be,
but they are what’s on my mind.

I will respond to you in anyway we agree.

I would give you all that I have,
But all I have of any concern, is my heart.
Be gentle with it, it compares to only to the finest crystal, or the most delicate China.

Never forget these words; they come from somewhere inside me.
It is the place where all my memories of you are held.

Most important, remember these words come from:
Your best friend
And your beloved.

I will always be to you one-in-the same,
As you are to me.

Daniel

You live behind a wall of truth
I live behind a wall of dreams

We speak together

We share together

You call out to me
I call out to you

We listen together

We laugh together

You reach out for me
I reach out for you

We play a game together

We plan a gathering together

You touch me
I touch you

We bend to our desires together

We burst from our desires together

You live behind a wall of truth.
I live behind a wall of dreams.

Slipping Away

I feel it slip
At times I know it’s trying to leave me

I feel it slip
At times I know it has already gone

I feel it slip
At times I wonder if I will miss it

I feel it slip
At times I wonder what will happen to me

I feel it slip
At times I think I will miss its passing

I feel it slip
At times I think what will I do without it

I feel it slip
At times I want to lock it up

I feel it slip
At times I want it to be safe

I feel it slip
I feel it slip
I feel it slip

No don’t leave, don’t take your love from me.

Reflection

I’m sitting here thinking

Thinking about you

Thinking about the short amount of time we’ve spent together
time that I’ve enjoyed

Thinking about your smile
your beautiful smile

Thinking about your eyes
your stellar eyes

Thinking about your lips
Your gorgeous lips

Thinking about the little things you’ve done
little things that mean so much to me.

Thinking about the moments we’ve shared
moments that have seemed like hours but have only been minutes

Thinking of how I look forward to seeing you
Thinking of how I look forward to talking with you
Thinking of how I look forward to getting to know you

In general, I’m just sitting here thinking about you.

Morning Coffee

The coffee is warm in my hands
It warms my soul

I had to say goodbye to you, but the coffee warms my hands

The morning sun is warm on my face
It warms my soul

I couldn’t save you from your own darkness, but the sun warms my face

The morning wind kisses my cheeks
It cools my desires

I tried to help yet you pushed away everything I offered, but the wind caresses my cheeks

The morning air fills my lungs.
It fills me with life

I tried to love you more than any other.  I wasn’t enough, but the cool air fills my life

The morning mist touches my body
It helps me to feel

I tried to show you goodness and light as often as I could, but the mist makes me feel

I have a warm soul
I have cooled my desires
I have a full life
I have felt in my life

I had to say goodbye to you.

In the Morning

The light comes through my window,
I look over and I see you asleep

Laying so innocent so sweet.

As I remember our night
I think of you and how you felt against my body
Laying so innocent so sweet.

I look down at the beauty that is yours.
I realize that we are now joined.

A bound that can not be broken,
Not by man,
Not by law,
Not even by god

Our bond is LOVE.

As the light comes through my window

I see you now more clearly,
Your lines,
Your shadows,
Your contours,

I see you!

But wait…

What has happened?

The light that comes through my window is fading.

As I look over
You are no longer laying there so innocent so sweet.

You are gone!

Were you my imagination?
Were you real?

Or, was our bond not what I thought it was?

I Failed

I watched you lie there
There was nothing I could do

I watched you slowly melt away
There was nothing I could do

I watched you be looked at and watched
There was nothing I could do

I watched you be tested
There was nothing I could do

I watched the tubes be removed
There was nothing I could do

I watched the family crumble
There was nothing I could do

I watched you slip off to eternal sleep
There was nothing I could do

I watched them take you away from me
There was nothing I could do

I watched the false and phony words from people who treated you poorly
There was nothing I could do

I watched them come and go with a smile and a laugh
There was nothing I could do.

I failed you
I failed you and I’m sorry
I failed you and I’m sorry and I can’t look at them
I failed you and I’m sorry and I can’t look at them and I’m angry
I failed you and I’m sorry and I can’t look at them and I’m angry and I want you back
I failed you and I’m sorry and I can’t look at them and I’m angry and I want you back and I miss you
I failed you and I’m sorry and I can’t look at them and I’m angry and I want you back and I miss you and I miss them

I failed you
I’m sorry

I miss you and want you back – I love you.
 

How do I

How do you say
    I like you

How do you say
    I like your smile

How do you say
    I think you’re nice

How do you say
    I’m sorry

How do you say
    I’m glad to see you

How do you say
    I wish you were here

How do you say
    I made a mistake

How do you say
    I’m sorry

How do you say
    I want you to forgive me

How do you say
    I still love you
 

The Kiss

Your soft mouth engulfs me

A shudder runs through my spine at your touch

You massage my tender flesh

Your dark eyes meet my gaze
Your kiss deepens

A tingle causes me to gasp at your touch

You run a hand over my burning figure

Your ruby lips tease my skin
Your kiss intensifies

A jolt of energy passes between us at your touch

You pull away from my body

Your gentle smile rips away from me
Your kiss vanishes

A content sigh escapes my mouth as you remove your touch

Interpretation

There you sit smiling
   I want to smile too
   But I don’t know why you’re smiling – you can’t hear and I can’t speak.

There you sit talking
    I want to talk too
    But I don’t know how – you can’t hear and I can’t speak.

There you sit laughing
    I want to laugh too
    But I don’t know why you’re laughing – you can’t hear and I can’t speak.

There you sit confused at me
There I sit lost from understanding.

I’m sad

Now, there you sit teaching
    I try to learn
    But it is very slow – you can’t hear and I can’t speak.

Now, there you sit telling
    I try to comprehend
    But I understand very little – you can’t hear and I can’t speak.

Now, there you sit playing
    I try to play too
    But I play very badly - you can’t hear and I can’t speak.

Now, we try to understand
Now, we try to talk

I’m happy

I am no longer lost from understanding.
You are no longer confused with me.

Alas, I still don’t always know how
Alas, it is still very slow – but we learn together.
