My Little Secret

My Little Secret

-14 May 2010-

She is my little secret
with hair as fine as silk.
I love to run my fingers through it
as I leave soft kisses upon her neck.
I trace little circles round and round
upon the smooth softness of her belly.
She trembles at my touch.

I enjoy seeing her eyes light up
against the sunlight of the day.
I enjoy hearing her laughter
at something silly I just said.

I encourage her to confront her problems
I encourage her to ease her fears
I only hope that someday she'll see
Just how much these last few weeks have ment to me

I offer hugs and friendship
I offer peace and love
I honor my vow of silence
to never tell anyone.

Even though I do love another,
I do not think love can be split two ways.
I can not sacrifice my soul
to have them both by my side.

So she will stay my little secret
with fair skin and hair as fine as silk
I only hope someday
she'll be able to read this

je t'aime ma petite

Illness

Illness

-3 May 2010-

the sparks of illness course through my body
the thick coating of mucus lines my lungs
as I detox from the harmful nicotine
I was once so addicted too
my nose can hardly breathe
and wheezes in complaint
my breathing is hard
my body is rejecting me
but I press on
poetry
rhyme
reason
logic
all good reasons to
allow my body the chance
to regain its health once more
