Dreamer in a cruel world

She was a dreamer, a believer, filled with hope from head to toe, he lived in the real world, a cruel world, his hope spent long ago,

Always so close, but never within reach, the hope inside her written words, the sadness in his speech,

See he had been knocked down before, more times than he could count, this world had dealt him many blows, that he would rather not account

Now she was on a different path, her road so soft and free, sheltered from the ugly truth of this world’s misery,

But yet they felt drawn together, ironic as it seems, for he sheltered her from harm, as she sewed his heart back together at the seams

Your love, an experience

Your mind a treasure trove, your body a burning stove, your soul a peaceful land, love more bountiful than desert sand

I can’t help but stare into your eyes as they lead me on a new adventure, what an angelic presence, no conjecture, heart to heart, high blood pressure, let our spirits moan with the tone of a heavenly falsetto

Take my hand and fling me to new lands unknown, let us float through the stratosphere, swim the caverns of the deepest seas, dance throughout the galaxies and set our imaginations free, babe become as one with me

Letter to my lover

The first time we met, I had no idea you would change the way I see the world, I had no idea life could feel this way, I would gladly take your hand into the sunrise to seize each day

You opened my eyes to colours and the way that they feel, the passion of a fiery crimson sunset, sweet serenity of amber fields and rolling green hills, the soothing azure of an ocean riddled with ripples

You helped me hear words unspoken, realise dreams untold, to sit surrounded by darkness and watch the beauty unfold, be cleansed by the purity of a blinding light, to find what matters most, to stand and fight

You showed me the world through your charming eyes, so full of hope, your touch in anxious moments has helped me cope, your calming voice in the silence of deafening depression, your acts of kindness when faced with raw aggression

You understand me and I pray I understand you too, soulmates on an astral plane, a real love so true, everyday a new connection, our true love brand new

The true love of my life, my beautiful wife!

Sweet Valentine

I stand before you, sweet Valentine, a gaping hole in my chest, naked and vulnerable, the blood falls from my breast

Eyes wide, filled with fear, my heart in my hands, every second a century, I fall to my knees as you stand

Please accept my heart’s tribute, blood soaked offering, you smile, my heart stops, I don’t know what to think

You brush my hair back and raise me up from my knees, you reach in your chest and offer your heart to me

The most carnal exchange, our love story begun, your heart beats within me, two lovers become one
