I want to steal a glance
at her subtle perfection
but this room is too full
ff distractions
I can't seem to catch her eye
No, that's an excuse.
Because she wills me to look
How can I deny her?
Something is squeezing
the life out of me
I can feel my energy draining
I suppress a shiver
and shake her brothers hand
off my shoulder
Just a warning, he said.
She's right there
Across the room
I can hear her laugh
Floating is way to my ears
"Look at me"
What if I misunderstood her?
She may not have intended for me to notice her
but how could I not?
There's a man at her side
I can't look at her directly
her dress dances around her knees
my heart lurched
I can't bring myself to look at her face
It hurts;
the way my ribs are crushing my lungs
I'm not cold anymore
her brothers glare is directed at another
I suck in oxygen
Step out of the puddle of fear
(that's seems to have accumulated at my feet)
Grabbing a glass of liquid courage
And head toward the door
The deciding factor
Will she notice I'm gone?
I tense.
What if she never knew I was there?
I downed the courage
the burning sensation heats my soul
yet the nagging feeling remains
Look at her.
I turn;
her eyes meet mine.

Literature
Tragedies are never as beautiful
you were the shipwreck
that was discovered a bit too late to be saved
but still soon enough to
take you out of the cold waters,
to look past the rust and cracks
and savor what was and could have been.
tragedy had knocked on your doors
and taken him away
because he just wanted closure,
for his brother, his family andhimself
you would think time, pain and loss would have hardened him.
he was more good than you remembered.
"Choking down sea water was easier
than to breathe in fresh air",was your reply
when he asked why you were so bitter
even when your breath did not contain the taste of liquor
and your acerbic smile was almost welcoming.

Burn
Forbidden desires burn deep within,
An aching, longing, pushing me to sin.
It rages through my veins, consuming me,
You're all I can think about, even
When I'm with another.
Locked up in your box,
Hidden from the world.
I need to find the key,
I need to get inside you,
Know you, Love you.
You are afraid to trust,
I know. I have been hurt too.
But you can't live behind the wall
My darling, push yourself,
You need to feel the hurt
To feel my love.
I bang on your door,
Begging you to let me in,
To let me heal your broken heart,
To restore your faith in humanity.
I won't hurt you,
Just let me in.

I Loved A Girl
I loved a girl – she smelled like August melancholy,
sweeter still,
she carried the scent of festival emotions,
tempered by the midnight flames
and fireflies' glow.
I loved a girl – her hair, the gentle hue of embers,
reflected dancing candlelight,
while in her eyes, as brown as mahogany,
I discovered tiny galaxies,
but most importantly – I saw my smile.
I loved a girl – I sensed her heartbeat,
playing to the rhythm of my breath.
Her every word,
imprinted tender cherry blossoms,
onto my soul.
I loved a girl – her lips tasted like morning air
cool against my heavy forehead,
her skin, softer than satin threads,
