Silver Lining

A beautiful day it turned out to be
More beautiful
Than you thought of me
Quaint little getaway
From turmoil, anxiety and stress
Hook and sinker put to the test
Amazing what time can do
Getting closer
Spending a few more hours with you
Warm sunlight hitting my face
Watching you
Lovingly invade my space
The rain was just a blessing
Other than the rainbow
Nothing else was missing
Watching the rain clouds roll away
Leaving yet again, our beautiful day
Nothing to brag about
Since not a thing was caught
But sweet treats for the soul,
We eagerly sought
I couldn’t ask for more
Nor will I try to pretend
Because you are that silver lining
I’m looking for in the end.

Who can I run to

There is so much emotion stirred up inside
I started out with a poem, of feelings I can’t hide
Everything, floating, swirling, moving so fast
Letting go of the reigns and forgetting the past

Since nothing feels good enough to truly express
What I’m feeling deep down, alone in my nest
Seems you are different, or so I may think
Too afraid to find out, so afraid to blink

Kisses that literally sends jolts to my heart
More than five hours is enough to bear apart
Your arms around me seems, so sure
It’s getting harder, letting you out the door

Everything passing by so fast
Always doubting, how long this can last
Many will say she’s quite a catch
But deep down, I’m just “me” looking for you
My so called “perfect match”

But then I read everything you said;
And apprehensive thoughts blur my head
Tormented by insomnia I lay here awake
Hoping all this wasn’t just a mistake

Feels like insecurities are getting in the way
But if there’s doubt, don’t hesitate to say
I’d rather hear truth, than have you dancing around
Trampling my yet so small fragile heart into the ground

I’m not that complicated
IF - in time you will see
Even the simplest things
Just truly amazes me

Trying to show the simplicity of it all
It didn’t take me thirteen days to fall
Not sure what to do, or how to portray
Without me telling a story that could last all day

So when you read this, don’t think too hard
‘cause I’m new to all this, so my heart I’ll guard
Though there is so much, you still don’t see
But then again, you did warn
You are all kinds of “wrong for me”

But in the end, you’ll finally say
That quirky girl so tall
Was truly the rarest of them all.

Eyes Wide Shut

That invisible eye,
I never meant to see
Stimulating my mind
Personality that blinds me

A few smiles here
A little sarcasm there
Heart worn on the sleeve
Showing years of wear

Compassionate yet true
a quality so rare
to none else’s I’ll try to compare
ever so tightly promises to hold
even with flaws and all
said he was sold

Pledged to keep me smiling
So I’ll never bear a frown
Pledge to keep me stable
Keeping my feet on the ground
Too many times kindness taken for granted
Wasn’t looking for love,
just something different,
Is all he ever wanted

REBUTTAL POEM
See I tell people I’m alittle confused
Please explain yourself
Crashed and Burned,
sounds like someones being used

Falling Is hard
And all this is new
I feel your warmth
And it scares me
I try to push off abit
Everything happening so fast
Trying hard not to rewind the past

I want to talk to you
But scared of what you might think
Of me in the end

Its hard to really open up
For all the world to see
Because of all the harsh critism
They just might not like me


Its nice to be able to talk
And be listened to
Reminds me of a familiar face
I once new
Nothing to worry about
Just writing what come to my mind

Falling, simply free falling
Everything passing by so fast
I said three weeks
That’s the no pass zone
By then you should know
Everything about me
A lot more, than most really know

WRITTEN TO ME

This really wasnt suppose to
Honestly begin this way
I had this poem in mind
With something more special to say

We ended up meeting together
Finally, a casual day for coffee
I, stupidly smiling at you
You, always laughing at me

It was quite comfortable
Sitting there with you
Talking about whatever
And everything you liked to do

Seemed that we already
Knew so much about one another
Your daughter, your work
No sister, me and one brother

But originally I had written
This poem about that day
Only to re and rewrite it
With so much more to say

I guess Im just not use to
Falling for someone so soon
I know its not been awhile
Cuz I keep singing the same tune

You have so many admirers
The world wants to hold your hand
I really dont know where I fit
What to think, where to stand

The girls, the guys
There so much I dont know
But I think you keep that quiet
Just so I wouldnt turn and go

That last night we shared
Something new around the bend
Me telling you I knew that
You would break "100" in the end

The weather turned out to be
So very nice out by the beach
Do you realize then that
For my hand did you finally reach

But I do have to admit
The brownies werent half bad
You feeding me in bed
Made me smile, just a "tad"

I enjoyed making them for you
As was the smile upon your face
Yet another moment lost
In a memorable, tender embrace

Watching you, hearing you
Finally fall in my arms asleep
I kissed you softly upon your forehead
Dreamed myself for you I could keep

Wishing it were only make believe
One that would give to more sense
"Opposites are suppose to attract..."
Yet, doesnt explain why its so intense

Consider me crashed and burned
For I dont really know what to think
We play unknown roles in life
Attached by some mysterious link

This wasnt my original writting
For Im thinking maybe Im not the one
My feelings are no longer invisible
This poem... is finally done.

by invisible eye

Is there more to this ?

Walking tall with head held high
With an ego so big, it strains the eye
Sweet and Intelligent, sometimes unclear
With a heart so big, seen from the outside in
Wonder what the eye sees in me
Hoping older, wiser
with a few years under the belt
Holding me high
rush of tension our bodies felt
what should I make of this
There is definitely something
Not sure what it is
That keeps me, wondering
If there is more to this …

Only thing missing is you

wishing upon you

Like that of a stolen kiss
My minds’ telling me, “just steal a kiss
Sun kissed hair brushed from your face
As unknowingly you look into space
I secretly gaze and pretend not to stare
But it still hurts the most knowing
You are there
I am here
Missing the touch of your velvet lips
Always coaxing you in to steal that kiss
I closing my eyes, cusping my lips
Feeling the blood rushing through,
Slowly to my finger tip
Sending that jolt to my heart
Miss holding you in my arms

Wishing I could hold you like this
Right here and never part
Holding you close as never before
Jump starting my heart
This close to you,
Hurts when were apart

And with that my heart starts beating again
Walking away
Smiling
As you perfume lingers

Clumsy

Fiery passions building so high
Embracing
Longing to touch the sky
Pulling thorns from my heart
another work in progress from the start
when I think of you, I am far away
imagining tongues flicking
Dancing and entwined
Silent sighs escape me...
Deep gasps become me…
Sitting wishing I could keep you
Promises to stay close
Building something
Only seen by most
The softness of your spirit
Fades my past
I sit and wait for you
In my hands I hold a tattered heart
Embrace me,
Wrap me tightly
Stay awhile and mend me
Love me always
thoughts of you
Always excite my mind
Slowly encasing the core of my heart
I catch myself sinking
Deeper and deeper
Tumbling
Faster and faster
So I’m sending out a message
And hope you’ll see
What shouldn’t have been
Already has me falling each day, clumsily

Combated Heart

Gazing into what seemed like forever
Almost like I’m stuck in a dream
Staring blankly at my computer screen

Waiting for your return
That smile, you bring
Could make any nightingale sing

Batting your lashes
Puckering your lips
A goddess by design
Those seducing Hips

The sweetest name
A passionate heart
Phantom to my desire

Counting the days
Till your voice I can here
Mesmerized by your smile
Forgive me if a stare

Your kind words
Grasping at my fears
Like an echo from the mountains
Slowly they disappear

If fate has its way
Your eyes will meet mine
Lost in forever
We’ll travel past time

Scared and reserved
Leaving everything to chance
If we’re meant to be
We’ll know in our hearts
