Tear me down

I can’t imagine not living for something,
I can’t imagine not living for you.
I can’t imagine never giving up something,
I would give it all for a moment with you.

Tear me down and reveal my frailties,
Tear me down and see the truth,
Tear me down and hold me always,
Be my eternal fountain of youth.

Tell me that you will live for something,
Tell me that all of this is true,
Tell me that you could give up something,
To become more than you ever knew.

Tear it down, reveal your beauty,
Tear it down to find your way,
Tear it down, it is now your duty,
To make me smile from day to day.

All I Need

All I need
All I need is you
All I need is you smiling
All I need is you smiling and knowing
All I need is you smiling and knowing that I
All I need is you smiling and knowing that I caused it
All I need is you smiling,
because when you do,
it's beautiful.

Starshine

The moon has ruled too long,
and I haven’t heard your song;
The sky has been too bright
to see your lonesome light.

Come back and sing your song,
I hope it won’t be long,
Till I see you gleaming smile
And talk with you awhile.

You shine much more than most,
Yet you’re the last to boast,
Of what you have inside;
Your beauty can’t be denied.

Come back and sing your song,
I hope it won’t be long,
Till I see you gleaming smile
And talk with you awhile.

I envy your sojourn,
And wish for your return,
Don’t stay away too long;
Return and sing your song.

Come back and sing your song,
I hope it won’t be long,
Till I see you gleaming smile
And talk with you awhile.

Come home and stay for tea,
Don’t stay across the sea,
Come back to those who care
And wish that you were there.

Come back and sing your song,
I hope it won’t be long,
Till I see you gleaming smile
And talk with you awhile.

The Park

I tremble as I sit by your side
Your hand running slowly down my thigh
As I look into your eyes they open wide
And I listen to your delicious sighs.

My arms hold you tight as you rest
Yet I can sense the yearning in your breast
As you rest your head on my chest
I know your thoughts even though they are unexpressed.

Beauty - An Exercise

This is a writing exercise based on Beauty; at some point I may pull these lines apart and find a poem.


Beauty can drive you crazy
Beauty can make you insane
Beauty can change your outlook
Beauty can cause you pain

Beauty is not your equal
Beauty is the fall of man
Beauty is all you wish for
Beauty is where it began

Beauty will give you heartache
Beauty will be your guide
Beauty will waste to nothing
Beauty will be set aside

Beauty has taken you captive
Beauty has stolen your soul
Beauty has changed you forever
Beauty has swallowed you whole

Beauty knows nothing of substance
Beauty knows it will not last
Beauty knows that you desire it
Beauty knows it is surpassed

Beauty was nothing without you
Beauty was not what you thought
Beauty was more than just pleasure
Beauty was not to be caught

Beauty does not understand you
Beauty does as it will please
Beauty does what will placate it
Beauty does nothing but tease

Beauty may ask what you’re thinking
Beauty may seem more than lust
Beauty may not live forever
Beauty may not earn your trust

Beauty shall know temptation
Beauty shall be denied
Beauty shall take the burden
Burden shall know that you lied

Beauty should be everlasting
Beauty should hold no fears
Beauty should lead your heartstrings
Beauty should shed no tears

Beauty cannot be forgiven
Beauty cannot live within
Beauty cannot find redemption
Beauty cannot dwell with sin
