~ Para Ahora (For Now) ~

Si usted decide mañana
Que yo no soy valor la espera
Que los labios no son tan dulces
Para para mantenerle mina.

Y si usted decide dejarme
Vagar la noche de desierto
Buscar para los pedazos
Del sueño que fue su Amor.

Entonces yo le mendigo termina mi vida
Para su pérdida sería mi deshaciendo
Habiendo esperado mil vidas
Para estar con usted, mi amor

Y permitió que el corte sea rápido
Para volver mi alma a la oscuridad
Al frío y el lugar solitario
Eso fue mi vida antes.

Pero hoy, usted me desea todavía
Y usted posee cada parte de mí
Yo le negaré nada
Si usted me mantiene para un tiempo.

~

If you decide tomorrow
That I am not worth the wait
That my lips are not so sweet
So as to keep you mine

And if you decide to leave me
Wandering the desert night
Searching for the pieces
Of the dream that was your love.

Then I beg you end my life
For your loss would be my undoing
Having waited one thousand lives
To be with you my love.

And let the cut be swift
To return my soul to the darkness
To the cold and lonely place
That was my life before.

But today, you desire me still
And you own each part of me.
I will deny you nothing
If you keep me for a time.

~ Unspoken ~

My love, I have no guard from thee
To deny you all which you desire
If I can make it so, for you
Then so I will
For just we two.

My love, I have no thought but thee
To please you in every way I may
If I can show you loves intent
Then so I will
My heaven sent.

My love, I have no life but thee
To pulse within and in your skin
If I can conjure pleasure thus
Then so I will
For both of us.

~ Amado ~

Dare I dream?
The thing, I sing
I swing between
Still life and dream
Now cold, depart!
My loving heart
Belongs to He.
I rested long
In woebegone
Iconoclastic
Spastic throes
The march of woes
Yet Love, it sows
A seed of hope
At end of rope
Comes light
To night
Once more.

~ Mismo ~

Dream of oceans parting
On swift wings, travel to my lips
Hold me safe against your chest
And let the world pass by.

For this world has done enough
To harden a lovers resolve
To make romance a fearful place
Where everything lies unspoken…

Speak not then, the words
You would have me hear
The contents of your heart
Are not unknown to me.

Courage my love, and faith
Destiny offers no regret; I fear
Only the slow passage of time
And the deep cold blue between.


*Dedicated to Adam*

~ Words ~

I am words.
Breathed in sultry sighs
And promises that I
Can please you
If given the chance.

I am words
Unspoken on page
I find it strange
That you don’t know
Me better by now.

I am words
That dance and dive
And I’m alive
With words I haven’t
Conjured yet.

I am words
That break the wall
They rise and fall
Like yesterdays hope
And forbidden optimism.

~ Et Tu Brute? ~

Stupid girl
Sits silent
Violent
Wiping tears
That none may see
The sobbing she
A travesty
That all my wounds
Inflict this way
Betrayal from those
I love the most
Am I a host
To misery?
Infidelity?
Why can’t you see!
I’m one small girl
Who thinks that she
By shere goodwill
Effects some change
You think it strange
I lead and dream
Of a better way
For us to play
So there’s no pain
Just growth and gain
With faith renewed
My heart is skewed
Each time it’s broke
And then you choke
The hope from me.
I want to be
So far from thee
At daggers length
I’ve not the strength
To understand...
How swift your hand
How red my blood.
