Embry

I know better than to look at him
Stare into the jagged blue
Shooting outward from his eyes
Capture his lips in my thoughts
My mental fingers through his hair
Drift
Never saying a word
But I let myself go anyways
Unbearable and crave demanding all at once
Addictive in its own passionate way
I fall I love every time the sun glares
Through the delicate strands of golden hair,
Every time his lips part the slightest bit
To take in breaths of life so deep
Every time he grins
So innocently,…

So much passion it’s almost scary
Part of the allure
Such a beautiful haze
Too romantic a dream
To ever be true

But even though I know better,
Watch me never stop
I’ll resist, just to say I tried
I’ll smile
Just to let you know
That 'I tried' was just a lie

Just one more hit
I promise
I can deal with it
Take me tonight and make me love you
Make me want to hate you
Loathe and despise you
with all the harnessed being in me
Then turn and fall so in love
My very skin is drenched in the word
That enemy word which
With your help
Could prove to be my friend
So in love that my only world is
This room and the very two of us

Smooth the ripples of fear,
Warm the waves of cold.
Press your arms around me
Until light wave morning
Until the tender creases of gray
Caress your every shift
And the moonlight stars on ‘till morning
When they slip and slide into peaceful dream
Under blanket and cover of sunshine
‘Till they wake again
And crystal shining overhead
Suck kisses as these
Are what lovers are made from
True enough in all that is fair
And if fair beauty makes truth
Let it be known that you are
A most honest and honorable man
If I ever knew there to be one
