Dear God,
I've never been a praying soul
nor a strong believer
When I speak to you, I'm never sure you're there
But how I long to see your face
and know the warmth I see in others
I am a stubborn being
Forgive me that
and love me nonetheless
I wonder at time if I'm lost
or if everyone else was misled
Selfishly I'll say, these are trying times for me
Being so young yet so old
While being sure and utterly confused
If I dont extend my hand to you,
Please grab my shoulder instead
I need something concrete
and I bed you to show it to me
Make me sure
I ask much of you
I apologize
but I ache for the truth
and if you are it,
help me find you
With a turn of your head
All my grey skies turn blue
and the black drips out of my soul
Each small kiss we share purifies me
Absolves the sins in my past
The present lies with me in your arms
and the future stares back in your eyes
My joy knows no expression
but my fear knows no bounds
To trust you with my heart drains all my energy
but takes little effort
You make it so easy to love again
so easy to be vulnerable
My guard dropped before I realized it
and you've consumed me
I feel fragile
Like the wind could shatter me
but confident that it wont
More than anything, I feel blessed
If there is such a thing
Because I know if I break tomarrow
you would pick up my pieces
and help me find my way
My eyes close and my mind wanders
The room�s darkness envelops me
I�m glad to be rid of the light
It makes me examine my faults
Look at each imperfection in detail
And I have many
I want to run and hide in the pit
Shielded from probing eyes
And my own probing thoughts
And when I have the strength to do what must be done
I will live again
The object of my desire walks on sturdy legs
And speaks in velvet tongues
He mesmerizes me
Puts glitter in my eyes
And I follow him blindly
He sparkles when he smiles
And I cannot look away from his dazzle
I loose myself in his aura
Allow myself to crumble under his gentle strength
Infatuated with his entire being
And intoxicated by his mere presence
He moves me
Excites me
Tortures me in his absence
And I love it
I
AM
LUSTFUL
I ache inside and out for forbidden pleasures
What can I do?
I don�t want this burden!
But I see sex in every place
And smell it on everyone
I
CAN�T
CONTROLL IT
Call it want, need or nymphomania
I call it sad
To have no control over your own drive
I
AM
HELLBOUND
Because I love it
Because I crave it
Because I cant get enough
Yet�
I
AM
ONLY
HUMAN
I soak up every day
Enjoy the present to its fullest
Although I�m impatient for tomorrow
I�d like to cherish my every breath
But I�ll admit I may take them for granted
Lucky to be living
To feel the air cool my skin
To see the sunset turn the sky to fire
And to know the heaven in my veins of a girl in love
I've known the simple pleasures
Soft kisses
Sugary strawberries
And warm summer rain
I�ve tried to love each one with the reverence it deserves
But always fail to grasp how special it all really is
This giant fish tank of people
Cold
Dysfunctional
And beautiful
