theletteridneverwritten

i used to sit up every morning before i went to the shower and write you a note

something that you would find in the morning on your pillow

if you felt for meeh when you woke

they would always tell you

thank you for the night

if it didnt say anything else

you would know the significance of being held

they would tell you that i would carry your scent with meeh

and that the only thing i would look forward to were your arms

the arms that kept meeh so safe from my nightmares

safe from the darkness id hidden myself in

and the days would pass

some quicker than others

but they all ended the same so the middle of it all didnt matter much

but the words i really wanted to say

i branded on my heart

they were too fragile to commit to paper

and now that you are a 7208 miles away

i think differently

i dream of you holding the letter id never written

reading the words that told you of the night i fell in love with you

hearing my heart beat and the wind whisper

that the continents could not keep us apart

and you would have known that i would have opened my life to you

that i would serve you in every way

and not let a day go by where you had to ask what if

that letter held sacred kisses

and a key to my soul

and a promise that you will never know

i was wrong

never to have let you know

and i will never know again the comfort of your arms

but i still sit up each morning and type up a note

reminiscent of those id leave on your pillow all those years ago

with the click of a button they go the distance

not that they mean anything anymore

but perhaps they will make you smile

as you remember the way we were so in love

makelove

maybe it is the pressure of knowing the pain of failure the past has brought
but there is nothing about meeh
that wants to spend one moment without you

im captured by the soft touch of your breath against my cheek
and i whisper "lay meeh down"
without so much as a breath leaving my body
you are how i imagined it would be
and i am at your will

touch meeh with your mind
and kiss meeh with your body
and i promise you this
i am not going anywhere

images of your smile flash through my mind
and my world is lit by the light thereof
steadily enveloped in your words
this is the way should have always been

i can give you a special kind of love

undress meeh with the scent of your cologne
and watch meeh surrender it all
willing to give into your fantasies
and you alone are mine

kidnap meeh with your thoughts
and dont study meeh if i shiver
nervous without cause
i know that i am safe in your space
and if i turn back from your gaze
pull meeh back in

my fears will cause meeh to run
dont let them cause you to allow meeh
inside you know my spirit just wants to make love to you

in your assurance, show meeh what love is
and i will learn just what you teach

peanutsontheplane

and this stranger sat beside meeh with the most captivating smile
it grabbed hold of the corner of my eye but i didnt raise my head
i was otherwise occupied
i smiled and continued texting while i still could
i knew once the plane was ready to take off there would be no more of that
and sure enough there she was

"maam, i am going to need you to turn that off"
i looked up and smiled and did as i was bid

a deep soothing voice says "she sure told you"
we laughed and carried a conversation
at some point my eyes closed
and i dreamed of us dancing the flight away
up and down the aisle with dips and spins
and he held my waist just right
i wanted to melt right there in his arms
and with the last dip

he leaned in

i closed my eyes

"maam, im going to need you to turn off your cellular phone"
i snapped out of it and turned off my phone
i looked beside meeh and there he was
eating peanuts on the plane
i leaned back with a smile
ear buds in

...takeoff...

lunchwithastranger

a million thoughts were jumbled about

waiting to pass

i placed an order at the corner market

and as i waited i took a seat

always the observer

and i saw there a man

with his eyes fixed so on a beautiful young lady.

she occupied his thoughts and feeling
and she did nothing but flash a smile in his direction
but it was certainly enough
perhaps for the both of them

the sun was out but the chill hadnt left the air
and as my tea finally arrived
i noticed him walk her way

im certain he couldnt tell how hard she was trying to keep her wits about her
it was the funniest scene all day
and of all the people to pass meeh by
they were the ones i was drawn to

though they seem to have spoken few words
their smiles grew bigger and brighter
suddenly my tea was making meeh hot

they took a seat not too far from where i was sitting
i found myself torn between them and the pad my intentions were dedicated to
though my soup had finally arrived
there was no need for it

so i watched the new couple become friends
and it was the best lunch with a stranger id ever had
until the next time.

littlefallofrain

they said i would live a hundred years in the safety of your arms

and though the world would take my life

it would be for a cause we both shared

and so you would be there with meeh wrapped up in your arms

and in that very moment

a little fall of rain could hardly hurt meeh

i have loved you from a distance far too great for this life

you were not ready for it

that kind of thing is far beyond your years

but it was there waiting for you nevertheless

because it is all i ever knew how to do

the cold is setting in and feel my last breaths leaving my body
but you will not leave meeh now

now i can live in my dreams

where you are waiting for meeh

so hold meeh close

and keep meeh safe

dont hold in your tears

they will help the flowers to grow
