CuddlingMy head on your chest-Cuddling10 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
listening to your heartbeat
and the soft wisps of your breathing-
I snuggle closer-
your arms hug me tighter
and you kiss my forehead-
this simplicity-
this bliss-
is all I've ever wanted.

The SongbirdIt was just before he turnedThe Songbird9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
nine years old
that his mother bought the boy
a soft yellow songbird.
And that songbird
every night
would sing the sweetest arias
and would melt away
the little boy's fears.
He loved that bird
and its beautiful melodies;
it was not a pet his mother had given him,
but a musician-
a listener-
a friend.
But as time wearied and withered away
(as time has tendency to do),
the boy found it harder and harder
to hear the splendid tunes
until finally
the boy could hear the bird no more.
At fifteen the boy's brain
was being ravaged by
a most monstrous cancer.
The doctors spared him his life,
but

will they bring my true love to me?

I wish
would see me-
the eyes so deep and dark brown-
you have the smile
I wish
would smile at me-
the smile so wide and sweet.
You have the voice
I wish
would speak to me-
the voice so deep and rich-
you have the arms
I wish
would reach for me-
the arms so strong an shapely.
You have it all
and I wish
you'd love me.

I Remember-Do You?I remember nightsI Remember-Do You?10 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
when it was just you and I-
with no one to tell us
we couldn't be together-
When I cried
you held me tight,
when I shivered
you kept me warm,
and when I refused to smile
you sang me
the softest lullaby.
I remember how much
you loved me,
and I remember how much
I loved you-
because I still do.
I remember-Do you?

The Trashed TeddyThere was once a bearThe Trashed Teddy9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
so treasured
by a young girl-
a teddy bear
made of the softest brown plush
and little black buttons
for his eyes.
It was a plain and simple bear
with only one desire-
and that was to be loved,
and be loved by her.
And day after day
he took pride in being in her arms
to be part of her happiness-
to comfort her in sadness-
and to heal her in sickness-
Though he loved her
with every bit of his plush heart-
the bear soon was set aside as she
received new bears-
better bears - as he saw it -
and in agony
he watched her love them,
hold them and kiss them
as she had once done for him.
And so the poor te

warm as summer skies-
so beautiful with that
bright smile-
inviting me to
open up to you.
Blue eyes-
mysterious as the tides-
so mystifying with that
charm-
leading me on
to believe in more.
Blue eyes-
cold as ice-
so cruel with those
hidden lies-
that hurt me more
than you care to realize.

For the Both of UsWhen you're sitting thereFor the Both of Us1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
slicing at your wrists
thinking no one cares,
I'll hold you tight
and take your pain away.
When you're crying there
on my shoulder
thinking all hope is lost,
I'll kiss away the tears
and bandage up your wounds.
When you're dying there
before my worried eyes
thinking you're just trash,
I'll give you my whole heart
and love you for the both of us.
