I stumble

I walk around in the bright sunlight

Just looking for a ray to warm me

I know the warmth will be good to me

This time..Right?

Ray warms my heart and knocks off the chlls

And then I stumble

There was crack in life that tripped me up. Again.

How was that not seen when that way I just came

The Ray was right beside me shining brightly

Maybe too brightly for me to see

The armor, Rusted The smile, False

The strength, Assisted by the weight of others past

I trod on through a path watered by the tears of love gone

I stumble

I pull away from the thorns of pain as I walk the path

I stumble

I look up through the trees looking for my ray

And.i.stumble.

The path narrow but a prize to great to give up on

I gather the strength deep inside me to stand and deeply breathe.

One step, two steps. I feel a pull at my back

A voice on my neck beckons me back but I keep my eyes forward

I can not, will not, succumb to the tempting temptor that tempts me

Again.

I can not will not lean back and feel the warmth

A fooling warmth that hides another face cold as ice.

I stumble

Its customary to accept the temporary and not be wary

As we should…We all stumble

We can be fooled by the heat that gets us hot

And we fall into a hole that takes a while to get out of

But we must remember that when we fall

We can get back up

When we stumble reach up and gather more strength from the hills

We fail to understand that a helping hand can help us stand ..tall

Taller than we ever have and believe me when I say

You may see 5 foot 1 of honey deliciousness standing before you

But …. I can find a love inside of me that makes me feel 10 feet tall..

Of honey deliciousness, I mean I can’t lose that just cuz I add 5 ft right

I can find a love in me that will make me taller than any mountaintop

I stumble

I am warmed by rays, pure and bright

I stand and walk again…And if I stumble.. I’ll make sure I get back up

Veiled

Directly below the surface

Bubbling with intentions

I see your feelings

Some hot, many cold

But still visible.

You speak your words laced with double meanings

You use your pen to heal but also to sting

It’s a process I am sure

One you are happy to repeat, over and over

You are veiled but there is someone that hears your heart

The voices in your head yell and scream and cry

They explain and question and wonder why oh why

You veil your pain in bubbly speech

It’s noticed as much as the sometime nervous giggle

Though pushed down the same feelings emerge

Tauntingly, and with caution you test waters.

I can not quench what I know will become bitter

I hope your boiling will subside

Both in want and in anger.

So much ahead, one should not spend time holding

A veil.

That Smile

I recall the first time, that I did spy

That sparkling smile that caught my eye

That glow it brought to my face caught me by surprise

You see, I never had any intent to get caught up

Ensnarled

Tangled

In sunshine

Having been burned several times

My love needed time to heal and grow anew

To cover my heart with protection

From the next potential heartbreak

Yet there you were, arms open, smile broad

Welcoming me into you.

Reluctantly I took a step.. testing the ground

Wondering if a foundation would be strong enough

You voice wrapped around my soul with a deep, rich laugh

You words comforted me when I needed them most

You matched my wit and my sarcasm to a tee

I had to look in the mirror to make sure I was still me.

Where was the wall I normally have..the bricks lay off to the side.

No fronting, no pretense.

Just you and I

Learning you and exposing me

I like this. And you. Pow!

©Lainey Starr 2010

Cook for me

You stand next to the stove
I watch your strong arms hover over them
You hands lingering over the pots.
You move as if a magical spice were going to
Just spring from your fingertips.
Now those fingers are magical, this I know
But the bubbles, they seem to respond to your closeness
The sizzles, they increase when your hands come near
The meat becomes even more tender and juicy
You dip your spoon into the juice and then ..slowly
Begin to bring it to my lips for a taste
Each step closer to me that you get
Makes me shift in my seat with building anticipation
My mouth is already watering
Leaning in, you skillfully give me a taste.
Sensations flood my tongue and my eyes close.
I let the juice slowly recede and I savor every drop.
When my eyes open, I see you smiling at me.
No need to ask how I felt about the morsel
It showed all over my body
Eyes shiny and begging
Mouth puckered for more
Back arched towards you
I wanted, no, I needed, more than a taste
More.. I whisper
Soon ..you answer
Returning to your work place
I sit and admire the view
Your Dark chocolate skin against your crisp white uniform
I can’t wait for the moment that I can add my own ingredients
I just know chocolate and honey cinnamon will taste divine together
Smooth motions stir the dish to perfection.
I impatiently wait to be presented with my portion.
I hungrily devour your offering
Tasting each bit as if for the first time
Over and over and over, I taste
Plate empty.. I look over to you
Seconds please…you smile and
Begin to dip your spoon again
We partake even more, following one simple rule:
Don’t feed me till I’m full
Let me eat until I’m tired.

Parts of our life with Mark

Our Song

The notes, soft at first. Low and slow the melody starts off. We are writing our song, note by note. Taking care to place the notes in the right place. My treble to your bass, intertwined on this our music bar called life.
I sing my verse alone, longing for a duet that will lift my voice higher than the most operatic soprano. Looking forward to a chorus with you. Our voices join to form a hypnotic sound so beautiful that angels will sit on the edges of the clouds to hear it. We have both sang the solo of a sad love song. These verses had to be written in order for us to be here, in this place, at this time.
Sing your song to me, no sweeter sound have I heard in my heart.
My heart beats to your rhythm be it fast or slow. I follow you around the chords, trusting in your step. Going where you go. Letting you determined our way.
I turn my F A C E to you and you read me with the expert skill of a musician from the finest orchestra.
Always striking the right notes because Every Good Boy Does Fine when he takes the lead from the one True Conductor. The single clef becomes double. The serenade becomes a duet. Sweet sounding melodies consume my very soul and lift me high into your arms, where I am kept clear of broken strings and wrong notes.
You deftly stroke me and I emit a tune never sung before. Your key unlocked a music box. Notes so complex yet so simple. Bodies moving to a song never before heard. One that can not be reproduced by using any other instrument. Only the combination of you and me creates this song. Sweat glistens on your skin and I carefully watch it roll over your chocolate features. Hoping to taste your essence I lean in for a taste. Salty and sweet ambrosia is what I receive for my efforts. The touch of my lips to your skin brings your eyes to mine, Dance with me, they say.
Hand held out and taken, we stand and begin to move to our song. Eyes locked, our love swirls around and between us, pulling us tightly. Your hand on my back, my hand in yours and draped across your shoulder. Each spot electric to the touch. Our bodies forming a perfect, unending circle. Around and around we spin, fast and slow but once joined, never to be broken. Staring deeply into your eyes all doubt disappears.
In you I see my future. The dark notes I’ve sung in the past no longer haunt my soul. The brightness in your eyes overshadow it all. I chorus with you on repeat, without tiring. Play me again.

Throbbing

Throbbing

Head aching

Temples pulsating

Pain increasing

Eyes rolling back

Anticipation building

Panting breath

On the edge..ready

For the next thing

The open abyss is a welcome sight

Muscles tense

Eyes focused on the unknown goal

Slowly inching forwards

Treading lightly

I go

Slow

Up and down

Throbbing.

©Lainey Starr 2010

Soft and Hard

Soft glances, hard stares

Soft caresses, hard pressure on my back

Soft kisses, hard bites to my shoulder

Rubbing my thigh, sucking my clit

Brushing my hair, then pulling on it

Cupping my ass, then smacking it

Whispering my name, then making me scream

Making me wet then causing a sweat

Soft then hard

Hard then soft

The rise and the fall

And the beauty of it all

©Lainey Starr 2010

Time

I need

I want

I crave

Your time.

To talk to you

Listen to your words,

Oh to look in your eyes

That is such a treat

I promise to be a good girl

Unless you want a bad one

I hunger for and get moist because of

Your time

Fast beating heart

Breaths in and out

Rising chest that catches an eye

Tick

Tock

Round and round

We spin..

©Lainey Starr 2010

Get a Grip

Time moving too quick

Then too slow

The room spinning out of control

Looking around

No anchor to be found

I need to get a grip

Standing tall

My feet slipping

Lifting up my hands

But I never surrender

I look high to the hills

Where the strength comes from

One step towards the light, feet shaky

Closer still the ground hardens

Each step more solid than the last

Hands outstretched

I reach out and fall but…

Thankfully, You have me in your grip.

Stages of Love

As a young girl, my idea of love

As expected, was innocent.

I didn’t know how to feel

Didn’t know how to deal

With this massive thing called…

Love

************************************

It toyed with my emotions

As if I were a yoyo

I couldn’t tell if what I felt

Was that real love that Miss Mary J sings about

Or something as made up as the

Jolly Dude that comes to town once a year

************************************

My twenties were sprinkled with glimpse of Heaven

And Staring matches with Hell…I won..

Not wanting to be beaten I did what I must do

************************************

The next stage was to work…. On me

We women always speak on wanting a King.

But a King…wants a Queen…

So I did what I had to do to make sure

I was as Royal as I could be.

************************************

Now, don’t get me wrong,

I don’t wanna be right for evvvverybody

Community Punany is NOT a badge in Girl Scouts

And it shouldn’t be what a Queen aspires to.

************************************

My goal was to be the apple of One man’s eye

The sugar to his koolaid

The grand slam to his world series

The touch down to his superbowl

The madden to his PS3

That around the rim, one second to go in

SWISH!!!

************************************

Perfection is not what I strive for

No matter what the horoscope says a Virgo should do

************************************

But, here I are

Miss Lainey Starr

Twinkling like a constellation

Here I stand

Until I walk in sand

Hand in hand

With

Love…

Between My Fingers

From between my fingers I watched You
I saw Your strength and wanted to feel
The power, the glow, the breathlessness
From between my fingers I saw how others responded
I saw the respect You were given
How they quietly parted like the red sea
How words were carefully put so as not to offend
The HIGHS and the lows according to Your gaze
I saw this, between my fingers.
I saw how like a moth to a flame You drew me in
Turning away was useless
My inner eye was focused on
And tuned into
That which I watched from between my fingers
The sound of Your voice
The strength of Your commands
I willingly gave until the wall
The long finger that pointed away from You
Extended out above my head.
To my left the darkness of my previous knowledge
To my right the bright spotted magnet of You
As if I were on a moving sidewalk I moved to the left
Making no progress for at the small of my back
I feel Your hand
Not pulling, not pushing…just there.
When I turn to look into Your eyes I don’t see you
If I call out my own voice echoes against me
Skin still hot..i know You are not gone
So why do I feel as if I am slipping away
Between Your fingers.

Top to Bottom

Attraction is a funny thing.
I’ve met it a few times
Always unexpected yet always welcome
It drops in and everything goes..
From the bottom to the top
-----------------------------------------------------
I had a schedule that I took the time to make
And in come Attraction and everything goes
From the bottom to the top From the top to the bottom
Don’t worry about the movie, rather have you by my side
Not concerned about lonely nights, you will hold me tight
Dark nights turn into unknown adventures in passion
Passion that moves from the bottom to the top
Then from the top to the bottom…
-------------------------------------------------------
Strong wills bring many chills
Or was that the ice on my skin?
Held down but truly set free
Being placed where I need to be
Going from the top to the bottom
------------------------------------------------------
I’ve never come across one so strong
One that others should take a lesson from
You are like me, yet you are a prototype
Of the puzzle piece meant to fit with me
Other pieces have just never.quite.fit.
It’s all gone from the top to the bottom
From the bottom to the top
-----------------------------------------------------
My heart beats faster when you are around
My hands are sweaty
My mind races
And I feel…flipped
From the top to the bottom
I thought, at first, I should fight this
I should hold on to what I have had for so long
And then, little by little..i changed.
From the top to the bottom
----------------------------------------------------
Attraction so strong but I want it to go on
Switching feels good if you have a good teacher
Show me, teach me, learn me, feel me
And then it starts all over…
From bottom to the top
From the top to the bottom.

Give and Take

the heart is tender
the heart is fragile
my heart is broken
yet my heart is strong
my love rebounds
better than any in the nba
good or bad
i come back
for more
and more..
feeding my hunger
and quenching my thirst
------------------------
i look for more
to satisfy
and satiate
to fill and to empty
what i have in me
that i give you
in.it's.entirety.
---------------------------
if you ask i will give
if you demand..i will give
if you beg..i will give.. twice
know what i like...learn me
teach me...show me
mutuality is top goal.

The Climb

hands outstretched
reaching for the light
out of the darkness
i must climb the mountain
until, at last, i stand...
with the wind in my hair
victorious..again...

©Lainey Starr 2010

Hungry

Mouth Wide
I'm open
Ready to receive
What you give... Freely
What I take.... Greedily
Hungry for it all.
Nothing rejected
I'll use it all
As my gift to the world
I will remember to recycle
Giving it back to you
Feeding you spoonfuls
Until you begin to bite
Hungry?
Feed on me
See it in my eyes?
I.Am.Hungry.

It's Da Morning

In the morning I am awakened
By that that has already risen
A kiss on the cheek
A nudge in my back
Instantly bringing back to my mind
The high of the late night
The touch of your hands
The lines drawn in the sand
And us crossing every one
The outside world disappearing
Only leaving..
me and you
You and me
Me over you
you over me
Bodies twisting and turning
Memory erasing
What is my name again?
Touch that place in me
That makes me flood
And grab the sheets and the air and my hair
And your head putting it where I need it to be
Alarm goes off..
What was I supposed to do?
Blackberry going off..
What was on the schedule?
Doesn’t matter..
Only thing that is getting done is you
It’s da morning…I think…

©Lainey Starr 2010

Flip Me

It wasn’t supposed to go down like that
I am used to being on top
As strong as I know I am
I found your strength… drawing me in
Instead of Mistress I found myself
Moaning Daddy over and over
My body confused
My senses so high
My spot so wet and in tune.. to you
Your words leading me
Your voice carrying me
To a place unknown yet I was unafraid
I was safe with you
Your hands led me there
Your voice told me, firmly, where I should be
Your instructions had me begging for more
I am not used to this
I am used to being on top
Looking up to you I felt I was..
Exactly where I belonged..
Flip me again Daddy… please…

©Lainey Starr 2010

I was wondering

I was wondering what made me look twice in your direction

I was wondering how I was so caught on your every word

Why did I get shy around you

It was hard to even give a smile

But inside.. oh inside I was talking a mile a minute

I was sharing with you all of who I am

I was laughing and crying and loving and trying

To get you to see.. me

I was wondering if you would give me a chance

A chance to learn about the man you are

A chance to see behind your eyes

To let me trace your lips with my tongue

To allow me to listen to you sleep

I was wondering if I had enough courage

If I took the first step

If I held out my hand..would you take it

If I held out my heart..would you break it

I was wondering if I kiss you can I have another

And another, and another

If I asked for a hug.. can I have one…thousand

Can we watch tv and just listen to music

Can we just be…

I’ve been wondering a lot…

I’ve been wanting to ask

The strength to take that first step has escaped me

I’ve missed an opportunity once

I’ve missed that touch of your hand on my skin

I’ve missed that look in your eyes

I didn’t get to hold it enough

So I wonder… can I

Talk to you

Kiss you

Hold you

Touch you

Know you

I was just wondering….

©Lainey Starr 2010

0 ain't all bad

How many men can make me feel like you? 0

How many can make me boil like you do? 0

How many can take me and mold my heart like you? 0

Who can love me like you do? No one

Is there one that gives me as much as you do? No

How much more can he love me than you? He can’t

Can anyone make me see what a real man can do, besides you? No

Who holds my hands with better care? No one

Who caresses my soul better? No one

How many can make me love with such force? 0

So you see… 0 ain’t all that bad after all….

©Lainey Starr 2010

The Test

So you ask a question

I answer

No stutter, no hesitation

No smile, no laugh

Just the straight out, honest truth.

You run and hide

Afraid to speak your mind WITH me

Determined that you have the only and right side

Unfair it is

Cowardly as well

It’s actually quite puzzling

Immature

Time waste

But if it helps you rest at night

If having the ‘last word’ comforts you

Then I guess it’s a win/win situation

You tried to test me with hurt feelings

And I guess.. we both failed.

©Lainey Starr 2010

Clean

My skin reeks of you

Of your words

Of your lies

Of your unfinished sentences

My hair smells of partial stories

And the promise of sweet smells

My sweat pours out

Filled with aggravation

Tainted with hope unfulfilled

I am out of breath

From asking the same question o’er again

My mouth dry from asking why

Why did you do it

Why couldn’t you say it

Why did you not see…me

I want to be rid of this smell

I want no part of this filth

The dirty thoughts that used to entice

Only leave a sour taste in my mouth now

I want to be finished..

I want to be through

So I do what I have to do

I find..my strength.. as I always will

I will wash me

I will strip me of you

I will rid my soul of the hope of us

I will rinse off the start of you

I will close that door

I will be clean.

And I will start again.

©Lainey Starr 2010

Different

Different.
It’s what I thought you were.
It’s what I hoped you would be.
Not like the others that played the game
Not like the ones that all acted the same.
I wanted you to be the one to stand above them.
To tower above all the okey dokes and be looked up to.
I believed your words,
How sweet you made yourself sound.
I guess I can admit my wrong
I shouldn’t have placed you on higher ground
But I wanted.. so badly
For the situation to be more than the same.
That you wouldn’t be like others, that you wouldn’t play the game.
I prayed for some guidance, an answer I thought I heard.
When the time came for talking, from you I heard not..one..word.
No questions answered.
No statements said.
Makes me really wonder, If that good man was all in my head.
I’ll move on from this point.
Yeah I’ll cry and I’ll sigh.
I’ll examine myself then move forward and look to the sky.
I had hoped you were different.
I so wanted you to be.
In the end… you were just.. the sad, sad, same.

©Lainey Starr 2010

Say it

Say the words
The ones you keep hidden.
Scared? You?
I can hardly believe that.
The man whose mouth is always ready with words.
They flow from you just like my river from me.
Wisdom and Wit, sometimes even some bullshit.
But it’s all god anyway
Your words make me sway
They make me stay…enthralled in you.
Hanging on every word,
Others speak but are never heard.
I’m caught up in the magic of you.
Oh, how do you do, what you do
When you do, what you do?
I want the secrets you keep
It doesn’t matter how deep
Let it go, tell me all the details,
I wanna be your sounding board with all that it entails.
You start speaking slow
Then the words start to flow
I watch your lips move
Oh so sexy, oh so smooth.
I get lost when your bottom lip you lick
How I need to know what makes you tick.
The smooth chocolate of your voice,
It makes me weak, I have no choice.
I’m weak to your will, do with me what you may.
I shift in my seat, unable to keep my body from that sway.
Left, Right, Front and to the Back.
I’m starting to see where my world has slack.
More of you is what I need.
If I have too much it can turn to greed.
I’m not sure if I even care,
Your voice is the sweetest thing wafting through the air.
Gimme more, my eyes scream to you,
You know exactly how to do
You hold back, Then let it go
Repeat
Bring me to the edge and pull me back
If I didn’t enjoy it so much, I’d call you a tease.
Say it. Once, Twice, Three times.
Whisper in my ear and speak it to my neck.
I just need. I desire, I yearn for you
Say it.

Your Wave

The wave of your love
takes me high
andkeeps me wet.
My heart beats strong,
waiting for the next one.
Wash over me,
soak me to the core.
The sounds entice me
to move with the flow.
Take me up,
Pull me under
Keep me
-begging for more.
I'll ride this wave
-just like a pro.
I don't even care
how far we go.
Just wash out
-and come back to me.
I need
-to ride
-your wave

Sick

That feeling I get deep in the pit of my stomach
The churning and the turning
I am queasy with the thought,
of you.. with her.. and not me

**************************

I didn't write the story this way
The verses don't flow like I want,
I am to be.. the one to do
any and every thing for you.

****************************

Instead..... I am sick
writhing with the pain
of a hurt heart.
Wondering if there can be
any relief,
any cure,
any rehab
....from you

*****************************

Pain's so intense, worse than I'd ever felt.
And then... something happened.
A new therapy.. a different medicine
I've got a new prescription and ...damn
It's really...
Truly....
done my body some good

End of Love

So Its over between you and he
He’s moved on and now he is free
But, Is the only thing that matters
-the union of the ring?
When its over do you despair
Twirling round and round with no end
-except, the unforgiveable?
Do not fret the unknown
If you are brought to it, you can go through it
The innocents should not bear the brunt
Of the mistakes made by those who should know better
The blessings given yet taken too soon
In three days hence they shall not rise again
But they are in the hands of the Father
Peace be their bed now
The end of love should only be
-a new beginning
A change yes but never a door to desperation
Revenge is not best served warm or cold
Let He who reigns be the judge.

©Lainey Starr 2010

Take me

Take me
Take all of me
the top and the bottom
the front and the back
and don't forget the deep, deep inside
-----------------------------------------
You touched a spot and set off a spark
I'm smoldering now
Help me build the fire
Feel the heat of our burning desire
our bodily juices can put out the flame
-for a moment
------------------------------------------
Relax and Replenish
Repeat and Release
a rollercoaster of HIGHS and lows
-loops and sharp turns
Ride me and take me over the top
------------------------------------------
Take me and mold me to you
shape me to fit around you
take you in and squeeze you tight
Take me, as I give to you
My all, My Love, My Soul
------------------------------------------
Open me to your ways
Show me how to feel you, fill yo, empty and refill you
Take me with your to the Highest Highs
and know I'll be there for the lowest lows.
--------------------------------------------
I'm willing and able
to give me to you
Take what I give
and treat it well
I'm strong yet fragile
Hard, yet soft
Take me....all

Close

I’m watching you grow
Every day a new amazement appears
Trying not to hold on too tight
Or let go too much
I’ve always loved how you, and I, and close go together


Laughing together
Learning together
You learn from me and some days… I learn from you too.


Happy tears fill my eyes
Joy grows inside
Smiles for no reason but you
Laughs while I am alone and remember


Close we stay and close we will be
Even when you move away from the tree


So close you grow up
And I know trials will come, but one thing
I do know for sure, is that close will be what holds us

Off My Back

Get off my back

Just leave me alone

Do you seriously,

Actually,

Literally,

Think..at the top of my list

Is your bone-er?

-----

I’m not your geisha,

Not at your beck,

Not even your call

You can get mad,

Suck your teeth,

Turn your back,

It matters..not..at..all.

---

This is the thing,

The one thing

You fail to understand

Come here

Lean in close

(whispering) You are NOT my man

You aren’t my lover

Just barely my friend

I’m not really concerned

If you NEVER cum again

---

So this may seem harsh

When you read it,

You may scoff

But as much as you want me on my back

Imma need you to just..get..off.

©Lainey Starr 2010

You + Me =

Under your care and feeling your strength

Letting you lead and listening to your words

Supporting your goals and giving you love

Letting your borrow my strength when needed

I know there are times

I will willingly, cheerfully, give you what you need

Love, lust, desire and respect

Fulfillment, enlightenment, a shoulder and my breast

Absorbing your power and beaming with pride

Feeling blessed and honored to be right by your side

I’ll want to feel what you feel or not when you deem

I’ll want to be the one to know if things are not as they seem

Do you know that together what a force we can be

No one can pass us, beat us, separate us if we ..fo-cus

They say there is a thin line between love and hate

But what of the line between good and between great…love

You alone are a force to be reckoned with

I feel that,

I sense that, I want that, gotta have that.

Should I claim that…as mine.

You are you and I am me but us as a we

Yeah.. think on that for a minute

You…

Me…

Us….

We….

I like that equation.

Thru his eyes...

When he opens his eyes, the world appears

Almost as if a cloak has been removed from the world

From the small to the tall

The light to the dark

All things are seen in a new view

New to you and you and you

Have you walked this street before? Of course you have;

But the cracks in the sidewalk that spell out the future u did not see

Have you looked up at the sky and counted the stars?

They have never been as bright as they are once he sees thru his eyes

Those with no voice speak from the frame that he fixes

View from the top, bottom and ‘round a corner

Colors that have never met mix and mingle as a couple in love

A fixture from across the world is right in your hands

All because he has seen it thru his eyes

The pupils of creativity bring you to his minds eye

Through the lightning fast speed of his shutter he has allowed entry

Entry into a world that grows and changes and expounds upon life

MELodramatic; bringing the drama of a gushing of senses to the forefront

Rushing through your mind until it becomes a part of you.

What he has seen thru his eyes has now taken on an even different form.

Thru his eyes has passed thru my eye and now… I see… it’s all clear now

Still here but forgotten

Don't you remember?
Can't you see his face?
he was not the first
or the last... but he is.
You have erased him
No space in your heart
He wanted you in his
but rejection is all he got
He will move on
stronger for it all
But a piece of you is out there
You know... but choose to ignore.

Talk to me

So you heard what I said.. or so you think

So you don’t like what I said.. or so you think

I know that this is a new year but I have been a new me

For much longer than this year is old.

I stand tall and face the sun

Whether is warms or burns, I face it head on

I want you know to know if you have an issue

Talk to me

If you think I’ve wronged you,

Talk to me

Don’t ask my…well you know who

Talk to me

It will become crystal clear when you just

Talk to me

I’ve said before that it’s time for a new leaf

I won’t ever go back to an old bush

I want to grow like the tallest tree

In goodness and truth

I’ll give you what you give me.. all u need to do is

Talk to me

Feel me out… no need

Ill tell you if you

Talk to me

Wonder where my head is.. again, no need if you just

Talk to me

Take your time.. the words may not come easy

But you will feel much better… after you….

Talk to me

Come back

It’s been too long since I’ve held

Your heart in my hands and didn’t want to let go

It’s been too long since I’ve heard your laugh

And known I was the cause of it.

It makes me smile that I make you smile

Do you remember.. that time. When we..

There are so many sentences that start off

But then they ended.

Was it with a period or a comma

Has our story had a conclusion

Or a To Be Continued

So many sunrises and sunsets that have not been seen

So many stars that have not been gazed upon

I lay in the bed.. thinking of you

Of our time and when it will come again

When will it come again

Am I a fool for never wanting it to end

As a girl I was taught to believe..

In the happily ever after

And I want mine

I want you as mine

I want us

Come back to us
