Them There Eyes

Take me in with your seductive glance.
Your eyes take me to another world.
I lose myself in them and long to dwell
In your dark eyes with mahogany hues.
At times its hard to look at them
For fear of being lost forever.
Eyes that have a softness and wisdom
That is endearing to me.
They also have an intensity that
Sends a wave of temptation through my body.
Engaging and erotic, I have no choice but to fall.
I fall deeper and deeper into you ocular seduction.
I see my future in your eyes, a future of lovemaking
With my mind.
You touch and caress me with your eyes
You kiss and lick me with your eyes.
They make me weak.
No longer a superwoman
Them there eyes are my kryptonite and
I'll forever be weak to your charms



Matters of the Heart

The heart can be so fickle when it comes to love.  For some falling in love can be very easy, while for others it takes some time.  Emotional baggage makes it even harder to give another person access to our heart.  Timing seems to be an issue as well.  What is the exact amount of time appropriate to mourn the loss of the last relationship?  It really depends on the individual.  Although, jumping into a relationship with someone else right after a break up would not be wise.  This just leaves unresolved issues that will eventual resurface in the new one.  Taking time to fall back in love with you is key.  To be happy in any relationship, you have to first be happy with you.  Never expect someone to love you when you don't love yourself.  Surviving heartbreak is the hardest battle between the heart and mind.  Your mind knows it's over, but your heart accepting is takes much longer.  You'll know you've survived when you find yourself ready to love again.

One Sided Conversation

I say, "I adore you."
You say you don't care.

I say that I need you.
You say I'm not there.

I say, "You are the truth."

You say my love is based on a lie.
I say, "let's work through our problems."
You say you don't want to give it try.
I say,  I would do anything for you."
You say, "In that case, leave!

I sit in silence
As tears fall on my sleeve.
Sifting through images
Of our relationship past.
Trying to figure out
How our love couldn't last.
Tears dry with white streams stained on my face.
Taking in the silhouette of man
That can never be replaced.
I slowly turn and reach for the door
I say, "I love you," and like so many times passed,

my love gets ignored.
