Your gaze is blank,
Your laugh, intoxicating,
Your smile; addictive,
Your embrace; heavenly,
Your mind, different,
Unlike any other,
So childlike and free,
So filled with wonder,
So filled with dreams,
So much love in you,
In your heart and
In your eyes, darling,
I will love you forever,
Because YOU, my dear,
Are my Special friend.

Dance like a mad thing
If anybody calls you a fool
They are jealous
Dance in your padded cell
Dance as though all is well
If anybody calls you insane
They are jealous
Dance like you're siezing
Dance like you're freezing
If anybody calls you a freak
They are jealous
Dance and laugh until you cry
Dance until you reach the sky
If anybody calls you strange
They are jealous

Because I Heard Her VoiceOh, I was so lostBecause I Heard Her Voice3 years ago in Concrete Poetry More Like This
For so many years
And oh what it cost
To feel these fears
Then I heard her voice
I had no choice
I listened long
To her sweet song
Like raindrops fallen
Her voice was callin'
Callin' me to hold her
Hold her in my arms
To fall asleep
To the voice
Is the only choice
To have sweet dreams
To know the things
You love are real
To know it is alright to feel
When I heard her voice
My bardish heart nearly burst
All it took was a note
All it took was a verse
I was hers
I could never say no
Wherever she is
Wherever she goes
I will be with her
Because I heard her voice.

SHe giggled a bit before moving closer
I told her that she was my whole world
I told her that she was my everything
She smiled and said she knew how I felt
That I had told her many times before
In poetry and song, in any matter of art
She was happy that I felt it
I had locked my heart before
As she knelt down to sit beside me
I closed my eyes and her soft lips touched my own
My body felt so much lighter
It felt as though it were in the sky
Like the graceful morning dove
I could see the moon which I so adore
I could almost hold it in my hand
I jumped over stars to catch her as she laughed and ran

DadYou'd give me bunny kisses,Dad3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Butterfly kisses, too,
You'd hug me
And spin me high,
You'd give me nicknames
Like "Solita" and call me
"My daughter",
You'd buy a snack just
For us two on the drive
Back from the supermarket
And it made me feel so special,
You'd buy us clay, terracotta was it?
So that we could pretend we
Were amazing and famous,
I know you did special
Things for everyone else, too,
But when it was just me,
Just you,
I was the most special,
I was your "noodle",
And everything was just
As I wanted it.

What is a Kiss?What is a kiss?What is a Kiss?3 years ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Is a kiss a thing, a place, a feeling?
Is it as wonderful as people often say?
Does it mean that you love someone?
Is it part of your heartbeat?
Do yo ukiss when you first meet?
I am really not so sure
You see--I have never recieved a kiss.
I often wonder what is a kiss?
I often wonder is it bliss?
Must a kiss from Prince Charming?
Or is it so alarming
If a kiss comes from a peasant
I find them much more pleasant.
What is a kiss?
Is a kiss a song?
Is it a melody locked inside one's heart?
Do you know you want a kiss from the start?
Can you feel a kiss when you're apart?
Does it stay inside of you
Even after

Listen CloselyThere is no such thing as magic,Listen Closely3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
There is no such thing as dreams,
So listen child and listen close,
Here today but no one knows,
That after everything they learned,
They never ever remembered,
The fairies in their backyard,
The goblins on the mountain,
The ogres by the river,
The mermaids in the fountain.
So listen child and listen close,
Here today but no one knows,
Let it take you away,
You know better,
That there's no such thing as no such thing.

a thousand times,
it'd still sound pretty
every time.
I could compare you
to a summer night;
you'd be star-watching
and the lights.
I could call you
made of porcelain-
breakable beneath
your skin.
I could call your name
a thousand times,
I would still love you
every time.

never ending skies
ghost stories around the camp fire
carols by the Christmas tree
Long live
happy family reunions
good friends to get you through the day
and good books to get you through the night

nice surprises
and happily ever after
Long live

watching movies on a rainy day
and living your dreams

Nothing was making sense in my head
Yet when i looked outisde the sky was still blue
The grass was still green

Yet then i started coming up with conclusions

On my bed
Thinking alone
What was i missing?
You.

At The CafeIt's hereAt The Cafe3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
at the small table I consistently claim as mine
that I do my best thinking
I inhale the caffeinated aroma
of fresh brewed coffee
and I relax.
I think about the things that
have been bothering me
but haven't had time to work out.
I find the answers in the brown chaise
and the cracked ceiling
and my favorite chocolate biscotti.
I sip my mocha and breathe
because it's here at this cramped cafe
that I feel most at home.
