We Are

When the pain gets too much
Remember...We breathe together

When life gets too hard
Remember... We stay together

When the trouble is too scary
Remember... We are unafraid together

When we need to be apart
Remember... We are better together

When it all fades away
Remember... We light each other's way

When the world falls down around us
Remember... When we fall, together we rise.
 

Mud Doesn't Become you...

Never meant to be

For fiction fails us now

There are no fairy tale princes

No midnight rides

No pumpkin carriages

All there is

The here and now

Crashing notes of reality

Burdens of normality

Pain and regret

Tempered by the fact

That at least

I’m not dragging you

Down with me

For as much as you

Would raise me higher than I’ve ever been

I come from the gutters

People tend to get trapped here

I wouldn’t want you caught

Mud doesn’t become you

B. A. E.

Broken, bleeding, and bruised

I raise a battered hand

To have it brushed aside

Would you have me beg?

Is this betrayal?

Bittersweet and blue

My feelings were not to be borrowed

But you could not be bothered

Barging forward

Without a backward glance

We should break it off

Before Anyone Else

TILL

I feel your hand touch mine

It slides up my hips

Your tongue burns my skin with fire

As it slowly climbs up my thigh

You pin me up against the wall

My hands are high above my head

You remove your tie

Gently, firmly bind them, bind me

A great pressure begins to mount

There is no time, no space, just us

You raise me so I could touch the universe

As I catch my breath, you slowly start the dance again

We change places and promaenade again, and again.

Till we are exhausted,

Till morning comes,

Till we

Till
