An Ordinary Night

A moonlight night
When fall’s breeze called
Softly to the shores,
Waves riding and crashing against our feet
I thought,
Can I be dreaming this?
And you smiled at me
As if you read my mind
Answering no
What could I do but smile and hold you
So close to me that you felt
As if you were my skin,
Throbbing and anticipating
Your kiss that followed.
I wish I could say so many things
But I am just ordinary
Unlike the stars I saw that night
When we became one.


Empty Canvas

And so its been a year since
I last heard your heart beat like
you meant those words when you said them
You loved me, you said
what a smile that brings to my face
a movement to my soul
I told you that every bit of love i have left
in me you already have
and that truth resounds through out me
Add color to this empty white canvas
I was before you stepped into the room
I feel I growing tired of aching, wanting,
needing more than your far off promises
Lord give me patience, and give you the desire to fulfill these promises
for, time is passing,
and so Am I.
