Pedestals
Pedestals are dangerous placesUnknown memories
Feeling things that haven't happened yet
Tingling, racing through my nerves,
Like a dance,
That feeling, without restraint,
A lambada,
Forbidden, wild,
Rushing through my veins like a drug
Changing my body chemistry
I will never be the same again
You imprint yourself into my muscle memory
I remember you
The same way I remember
How to walk,
How to laugh,
How to cry,
You are a part of me now
Never again to be forgotten
As these memories rise to the surface
No longer unknown,
Merely...
Forgotten for now,
Just lost to time
Until they can be made again
For the first time

He stands before me in second place
Almost beyond compare
Except for the uncompromising beauty
Of the one whose love I bear
Who knows whose time is coming
When or how or where
Soon the question will be answered
The solution to problems laid bare
Unfortunately the world isn't simply
Drawn in lines straight and square
Sometimes second comes first
Often the world isn't fair
Untitled #7819
Shared shoulder spaces with secret kisses between us
Counting the commonalities under the covers
Waiting while the rain wets the windows
Touching with teasing fingertips
Light as feathers
Soft as down
Deep down in the dark of the night
Forever feeling free to be with each other
Released from the wretched rift
Together eternally

Truths
You've seen the naked truth of me
Haunting my days and nights
When the rain keeps me awake
Your arms encircle my waist
Our souls bears burdens together
When you leave to meet the dawn
My heart gently breaks
The world seems big and scary
I can only withstand the pain
Knowing you will be with be soon
The time slows to a standstill
As I await your presence
To reveal me once again

Who's that pupper? She is so sweet!
She wags her tail and chews her feet
She sleeps so soundly, snoring loud
She is the best, standing out of the crowd,
Her barks are sharp, warning of danger,
Even though she is trained, no one can tame her
I wonder what she dreams of nightly,
For when she wakes her eyes shine so brightly!
She is my fur baby, I love her so,
I will hug her close and never let go!
Trying to keep intentions clear
We march forth into the fray
Suppressing our peace and our fear
We sit alone at the end of the day
We march forward into the fray
Never begining to doubt
Are we alone at the end of the day?
Time to make a whisper a shout
My love, don't ever doubt
We shoulder into the fight
Making our whisper into a shout
Standing alone in plain sight
The mere thought of you calms me,
Fills my body and soul with peace,This is your kingdom
Conquer your territory
Learn its peaks, its valleys, its plains,
Bow and worship its Temple
Offer a sacrifice
Allow the floods to return
As you learn the ways of your kingdom
You ride it in a steady pace
Until you sight home
Then the true race begins
Heart pounding
A stitch in your side can't even stop you
Bearing down to push
Harder and faster
Quicker and more rapidly
As wild as the sea
Until you arrive
Where your kingdom is awaiting
