LIKE

Like a cool breeze
In summer 
Like an earthquake 
That no one
Saw coming 
Like a faucet 
That won't 
Stop running 
Like a child
At Christmas 
In need of a toy
Like love's
First kiss
Between a girl
And a boy
...I NEED YOU IN MY LIFE 

PRECIOUS ONE

My precious
Precious one 
Look at all the things
We have not become 
Used to love you
Maybe too much
But now i can't stand
 To even touch.
We promised forever 
Before family 
Before God
Had no idea 
That togetherness 
Would be this hard.
Now whenever 
We kiss 
I feel nothing 
But the need
To reminisce.
My precious
Precious one 
I guess it's over 
All said and done.

FORBIDDEN FRUIT

wasted all those years
cried all those tears
and for what.
a fool of my own making
yours ripe just for
the taking.
i should have
walked on by
but i could not
see that you
were not the one
for me.
even the angels
laughed from above
when i look back
it was never about love.
i just could not see that
YOU WERE NEVER EVER
THE ONE!
