Straight Jacket

Blissful hatred
anger beyond reach
vileness unrivaled

blackened soul
charred unrecognizable
disembodied emotion

bitterness with kindness
meaningless words
almost stoic

violent love
broken spirit
bloodied hands

vacant smile
staring to nothingness
deprived of normal thought

At a Loss for Passion

What is the difference
why can it not be
there is a connection

a fire raging
rapid hearts but from a word
enticing exuberant admiration

the touch has not felt
kiss not given
lack of affection

loss of words
unknown destination
drifting within possibility

want slowly begets need
regret breeds fear
love is love

Protection of a Shadow

Cover of shadows
silently I follow
watching over you

uncanny love
overcome by shyness
with no voice of my own

safety ensured
I can rest easy
as your protector

you see me daily
but never notice
for I stand beside you always

walking alone
within a cover of black
seeing you home safe

Stirring Emotion

Scared and nervous
the butterflies inside
happy but nervous all at once

Your Passion
the light in your eyes
this is how I feel

at a loss for words
only this a I can write
the way you make me feel

out of sight
your on my mind
looking at you, silence

how can I tell you
what you make me feel
shyness overrides

your smile
lights up my darkness
your eyes steal my heart

the touch of your skin
electricity in my veins
but my silence prevents

Unspoken Admiration

Feelings stir
begin anew
something thought lost

But as often as I see
I feel this every time I look in her blues
hear her voice

but I cannot find the words
why oh why
I wish I could just say

these feeling give me unrest
need for release
wanting and knowing

the passion I sense
hidden within
yearning for redemption

would a kiss
the slightest touch
could that be enough

awaken the spirit
join the worlds
become one and thy self
