glad

not only am I here,
but I thought I would never be…
making the news real
possible as the future may be
who would change it for you
is a question that anyone can ponder
but few make an effort
and I have not made a long term anything
and love is defined differently
for each person of any type of and any experience but
when you want someone to care you want them to
love you how you wish to be
not how they want to be loving you and that is not even the worst problem
the biggest thing is the need
the need to have someone be there is
what causes people to make any sort of
long vine to begin growing
and wishing you were something or somewhere
you are not is like having a dream
and not ever remembering it
again
but even if we have
been through the same things in life
it is the positive dream that changes people
forever
not the doubt that would make you
not take that leap,
so where are you
on that road?

done

well,
if you don’t see this as
going anywhere, I have some news for you. I said
at the two year mark that a choice should be
made, but what I didn’t say was only after
three years do you get to have all of me.
It seemed like a little of an extreme reaction, but
I know now more than ever before that it is a good
way to be, because I was so close to putting a
down payment to live, and you
were about as able to see that as I could
see that you had someone else to chillax with
more than me. but the full arc of spoiled
is being shown that you are not as
important as someone or something else
and then finding out the hard way that you were
right; morals were never as important to you
unless they are stomped on, or as big of a
deal to me unless they are walked all
over by you, but if I had you near and you did care
enough to not be quite as mean or high
of a standard of desire then I guess I should
have seen you coming across as the owned
piece of ass you were. Don’t tell
me to keep on caring if
you got nothing better to do than
be another person’s
old reliable…

then if you move over
I would really like to
sit right there with your legs on my lap
while the sound blows in
the window and rain curls the notes
of a song the sky makes
completion of an idea that
springs forth from the appearance
of a look on your face
that shows me you don’t just want
me here you also want me close
and like all the good things
it starts with an inspiration in a thought
swirling and takes shape when a plan unfolds
we could be here this comfy
years in the future
if I am
really telling you now
correctly sharing my words
cracking open my communication is a difficult pistachio
when I see you I hope for understanding
my face reflected in your eyes says
please
lets
stay
close
always…

should’ve could’ve

make a move.
show me.
you didn’t really want any closeness or you
would’ve tried to discuss a problem or even
talk about a solution
or at the very least put some
effort but I could’ve shown you more and tried
harder if I thought you wanted it to last instead
of my money and my time when it was
convenient, you weren’t exactly the
kind to let that go, in the future I know we
would have been better but for that to
happen you needed to get over yourself a bit
more often; just like I know I should’ve
done so much more to improve my need
to be supported in my endeavors or to have
help at putting forth a few places, you could’ve
been at least giving me a little assistance
when it came to many commercial applications
of my work, but what mattered to you was
having your ideal amount of food in the fridge (none)
and your perfect amount of attention (lots)
and your right amount of conversation (none) and your
good amount of money spent on you (lots)
but now you get less of
any of me, because you were a
player’s player who said
goodbye
to a devoted soul
who was unappreciated…

how could you
let yourself just fall
to pieces like this?
you did not even try to
keep it exciting there at the end
you just let
those tires squeal
at the brick wall
’cause it seemed so good
at the time,
and now you get challenged
about all the mucking around
and it is far too late
unless you change the past
or drop everything
and run for it
which is probably a pretty good idea
or at least an improvement

far

to work that hard
that fast
is pretty impressive
so is being that deceptive about being that lazy
it is a silly scene
like a movie where a villain plots something
and tells how it is all a part of the master plan
but it could still be
a good day out there
a good day to get out
so many times I have felt the same way
it is lost like the
toy of a dog
would you get a bit of time
exploring this moment
is the only desire
far far from any light or watchful eye

hm

making a desk
putting my works out
the paintings of course for inspiration
the pen and paper because now
is the time I make you
see my way and make
a coming together of perfect energies happen
and I cannot think
of anyone but you
and I cannot leave
your side without waiting to
immediately return
and I have never been
wishing for
something to work out more
and I know
the bbq ribs are sticky on your fingers
the wine, as always, was sweet
and your hands taking off my sport coat
was sweeter
but I saw the moon
and I saw you staring at me
from the corner of my eye
and you confessed to this want
for warm loving kisses
no matter how dirty
our lips were
we drank a few cookie ice creams
and sang a little tune
and then I wished we were at home having the only
moment of peace today be4 passing out
and you said
lets do this same thing tomorrow
well…
yes

mean

thanks for being there
when I seemingly couldn’t go on
and I needed the person I cared about
most to show up and make me feel
better and draw out the thing that is bothering
me most when I am not sure
I want to talk about it
no, I do, but I may not show it
and if there is one thing I know it is when I
am this tired and frustrated I will say the
wrong thing again,
where were you when I needed you and
was it that you didn’t care that much or were
you not gonna come by in the first place
no matter what I said and you must’ve cared
a whole lot about me in the first place
to have it advance to that level where you
are not going to show up because why?
I cannot imagine that you would be that
selfish and that mean and that lazy so it must
mean that I didn’t mean that much to
you in the first place so I am back to the
place where I hoped I would be
pursued instead of pursuing, or at least
able to talk to you about anything and
everything.
but that is not you…

hunt

reflective in the surface of
the water is this breaking open
of the new thoughts
in the sky while
all observable movements in light and grey
land go out a’dancing with
the clouds and rain among the horizon curves
down comes sound growing out
the capturing of a restless drought
ending like the words we whisper
now a feisty lamb but
born of an almost sleeping lion
working its way into your vision
imitating a growing sound
the rumble of growling
of an animal
angrily awakened

then

then,
the night starts,
a gorgeous gem
on the fireplace
and the music shines in
and blankets just
as the snow has been doing
for many hours
a beautiful shining
light off the water is what
that seemed like
when accompanied by your
voice, and then
I realize you want me
to hold you
and it all becomes
a glorious flame and
enraged fire
that surrounds us
envelops us
devours us
as we step into it willingly
