To hold you from behind…
In your bed…
Holding you, as if I’m shielding you
From the night
During a thunderstorm
Outside…
~ Picture A Wednesday Night, In Seattle

I hid from the police
Because I wasn’t sure
How long they would take me
Away from you
If they caught me…
~ Back Then, I Really Did Want To Change For You

And I can’t do anything
About the way I look.
I see photos of the guys you used to kiss
Clean guys…with no tattoos.
I’m a monster by design
That’s how you see me.
It’s all my fault, the way I look
That’s how you see me.
~ A Crying Monster

So… I can’t save…the both of you?
I can’t devote my life to my art
And to you?
Time is too selfish…for the both of you?
My art…
I’m letting you die again
For this human…this woman…
In my hands.
~ You Are…My Final Art

Blue sparkles fall around us
I’m so happy to see you again
Your head bears against my chest
Eyes dim lit, waking up to me

Touching along strands of time
Making love in our forties, will feel the same way
As our twenties.
I’d move your banes behind your ear
With only two fingers
Whispering, for a kiss.

We can only do it the “first time,”
One time.
What’s the rush?
Eighteen more moonlights, a ceremony for happiness
I never lied about loving you.
I’d like to waste no more time, not being able to prove this
Showcasing trailers of our future
Within our locked eyes.
~ Affections Across Time

Not just things like your hips
You’ve got elements that build you.
Distortions in your personality
Things that can be put together.
Everything about you is cannon
Tied into my life’s story.
~ She’s Cannon, In My Story

I so hope you’re real
I hate online conversations.
Those goodnights…
And good mornings…
They’re hard to ignore.
Hearts around a face
And the confidence you give
I’m not giving…I’m not giving
My time away
To another.
~ If You Are Real To Me…

When everything feels like Niagara
I know we’re nearing, the night’s ending.
It’s almost time for us to sleep, I know this
Can we finish within, the next half hour?
I’m not sure of this…
~ Niagara Nights
