I soldiered through
The gray days of nothing
And the dark nights of despair
Marching through my mistakes and regrets
The pain and loneliness teach me how to appreciate
You
Love
The earth is tilting
Sliding into tainted uncertainty
Tinted with fear and foreboding
Reach for me
I’ll hold us with love and trust
And the belief
Everything will be all right
Together
Tomorrow’s promise
Is just the wind whispering
Possibilities and failures
So tread softly
Stride carefully
But toss aside perfection
To live loudly
And love deeply
Taking an uncertain breath
I made a request and confessed
Showing you cracks in my walls
Fissures in my confidence
A picture of my vulnerable exposure
My heart hammers and my pulse pounds
Will you still see me as a prize
Or is this where we wither and die?
You are no picnic
No walk in the park
You are fine dining
A sip of Pinot Noir
Fastidious and divine
And all mine
Her resolution is to Take
Grab onto the happy moments.
The smiles & freeing laughter
Grasp lust & desire.
Ride the waves of passion
Seize new adventures.
Let her heart race in rapture & exhilaration
My love
I don’t need an address
You’re my home, my heart
I don’t need a memento to our love
You’re my diamond, my soul
I don’t need lingerie
You’re my vision of desire, my passion
I don’t need air
You’re in every breath, my life
You are my favorite story
It’s an epic tale
That has a beginning
But no end
Our ink survives
It never dries
In the shadows or sun
As our love
Is written
On our hearts and souls
Some fathers clip the wings of their daughters.
Not her dad
He taught his girl how to spread her wings and fly
Up past the fog and confusion
Allowing her to touch the stars
And her dreams
Give him your passion, your steam
And everything in between
He wants to hear you scream
Out his name, as he stakes his claim
On your body, but that’s just the start
He’s also after your heart
