Here

It make you feel
Here
Make you fly
Put you one step closer
To heaven...

It make you feel
Nature
Hear things
Whispers
From the blades and blooms;
Make you want to touch
Rub it through your fingers
Over and over
As it kisses you
There
Deep
In places forgotten
In places abused...

It make you feel
There
Then
Tomorrow
Infused with possibility;
Make you smile
As you think
Looking at them
With their mystery...

It make you
Feel
Make you hug yourself
When loneliness draws its shade
Across your soul;
It make you praise
Make you
Pray
Pay a little more attention
To you...

Let's Work

Forget about foreplay
Forget about tease
Now It's all about
Checks and balance see
No time for the romance
No time for a breeze
It's all about passion
Between you and me.

I just want to lay you down
Don't want to hear you cry
I just want to give it strong
All through the night
Forget about candles
And never mind sheets
It's all about the animal
Within you and me.

Turn down those slow songs
Extinguish the lights
Never mind our struggles
Let go of your fight
Forget about tomorrow
Don't think on tonight
Release your inhibitions
Let's do this right.

No time for the foreplay
Throw away the tease
Stop it with the questions
Must I say please?
Give it like I give you
Get into this fantasy
Let's return to our nature
Re-engage with the beast;
Let's put in some overtime
Work a sweat up so nice
Forget about once
And never mind twice
Just do the deed
Work the plow
Plant the seed
Tend the fields
Of total ecstasy...

Tell me
Do you wanna work?

Eternity

Pulled it out of me
Put it into me
Thought of we
For eternity
With kisses on my lips
Upon my love
Stars aligned
Heaven sent a dove;

Flood recedes
Troubles washed away
Shore revealed
Where we can love and lay
Underneath the stars
Wishes of we
For eternity
As touching me
Searching me
Wanting me
Opens me;

Enters me
Desire bleeds
Opening of vein
Makes me call the name
That created me
Connected we
In hopes of possibility
For eternity
Just like this moment come
Perfect as stars
I expand
Staring deep into the sun
Blinded still
With my senses overrun;
Whispering
Pleasing...

I guess I'll have to think about...

Staying.

35,000 To Midnight

On the plane heading to FL... Going to another world, through another world.

"35,000 To Midnight"

It was black
Pure and central
Silent
As if waiting
For the creation of time;
It was beginning
End
Fear and possibility
Primal
Level
Yet
Somehow textured
As I could feel it's sway
Teasing
Enticing me to come
Dive within it's mystery.

It was black
Our beginning
Our finality
Except for the solitary light
Far off
That seemed as still as we were
In those moments
Waiting
For the creation of time
And the sins that followed
That now
Make the world move
A little too fast to enjoy...

In the darkness,
One's never quite sure.

Skin

Told beneath me
Learned beneath me
Shown beneath the
Skin

Crayola
Mocha
Ebony
Label me
Boxing we
With closed eyes
I dare you to see
What lies beneath
The skin

They look to me
And give you privacy
Only Atlas could shoulder the world
And that was a punishment
See
Mythology
Of what it means
What is seen
Upon the sin
Skin

White
Yellow
Fair
Every term
A fallacy
A
Need to be
You
maybe even me
So
I guess
We'll never be free
Crossing lines
Outside our pictures
Complete;
From the moment
Out introduction to coloring begins
It's all about
Skin

Pink
Think
Brown
Down
Black
Always in the back
Last
Amongst the crazy and the cream
Dreams
And variations diffusing
To nightmares
As you've got to fit in
Your skin...

Honor

Honoring your name
The spirit begs me to move;
Why am I so still?

He

Fear subsides
Guilt subsides
Going with the flow
Spirit
I delve into his blue
His black
His unknown
Dance within his stare
As my fingers flow with ease
Through his hair
And my beliefs
That we could be one;
He is mystery
In the common place of my world
He is
Flow
In the stagnant I've become
Pushing and pulling me
As he strokes
Because he thinks I ignore;
He is subside
As I push aside
Those things forbidden
For chances
For my antiquated state
And simple answers
That never come
Despite the experience I gain
Over and under again
In my desire
To be loved...
