All the words I wish your fingers could feel
all the times Ive wished
you could know
the silent sorrow
lying stiff in my throat
like cold
and broken teeth
I wish you could hear
the child that cries
in my flesh and makes
my bones ache
I wish you could speak to my fear
I wish you could hold me
in your arms like oceans
and soothe what my muscles remember
all the bruises, all the sour hope
all the screams and scraped knees
the cloudy days so dark
I wondered if my eyes
were even open
The days I felt
like august, and that I, too
would soon turn
to Fall
all the times Ive wished
you could know
the silent sorrow
lying stiff in my throat
like cold
and broken teeth
I wish you could hear
the child that cries
in my flesh and makes
my bones ache
I wish you could speak to my fear
I wish you could hold me
in your arms like oceans
and soothe what my muscles remember
all the bruises, all the sour hope
all the screams and scraped knees
the cloudy days so dark
I wondered if my eyes
were even open
The days I felt
like august, and that I, too
would soon turn
to Fall
and that they could hit you
like atom bombs
warming your heart
from its frigid state
and lighting eternal
the glimmer of hope
you show when you come.
I wish that this couch was our bed
that this was our home
I wish you could call me a pig
for bringing home the bacon
instead of making some dough
i wish you still loved me
but i'm sure you know.

Gais princess gives me pause she makes my hormones roar.
My life gets brighter every time she glides in through my door.
Emotions return to me from somewhere deep within.
I seek out any chance I can to see her sleep again.
I speak her name from time to time,
To keep her image in my mind.
Her grace takes place in outer space.
I feed and need love from her face.
A kiss, such bliss, her lips like lace.
thanks for sharing your poetry red, it's my favorite part of SG. plus your passion really comes off the screen, and no thats not just a line because i want to screw
