Catharsis

Oh my heart
It skips a beat or two
When she smiles
And when she looks at me
With those light brown eyes
That make me weak at the knees
Oh her lips
Her glorious lips
Perfect
Soft
Lips
That caressed mine for a second or two
Enough to dream of them for a lifetime
And her soul
Oh her soul
Left me wanting for more

Trascendence

The way your skin
Goosebumps
To the touch of my fingers
Is what heaven must feel like
How your eyes roll back
When you take a deep breath
And let loose
Accepting your fate
And my body
With yours
Trembling
Twisting
Turning
Shivering, Letting go
Flowing
Like river water
Both of us—
The divine comedy of our life
Our magnum opus
Our pièce de résistance
And a coup d'état
Against taboos
And inhibitions

Heavy sleep

This bed feels empty
When you're not in it
As does this body
Because without you it's just
A hollow shell
A cocoon
Waiting for the catalyst of 
My metamorphosis—
The touch of your skin
And the scent of your soul
Give life to my otherwise
Seemingly lifeless shell...
My bed feels like a void in outer space
A black hole
Sucking the light out of
Every
Little
Living thing 
When it's without you
When it misses you
My bed.
This bed. 
Feels dead without you.

Heavy hearts

When I miss you
My body gains a thousand pounds
Gravity multiplies by ten
And I couldn't move a limb if my life depended on it

Everything slows down
My chest feels heavy
My sight goes to the ground
And my heart stops beating steady

I could be with you every second
Of every minute
Of every hour
Of every day, and never get tired.

How could I?
With that smile that outshines the sun
And a voice that soothes lost souls
I found myself in you

You stitched me back together
Piece by piece
Little by little
Word by word

And even when I miss you
And my body feels like a thousand pounds
I can still listen to the sounds of your voice
Soothing me once again

Staircase

I can't wait for our lips
To meet like they just did
With explosiveness and desire
And I can't wait for my hands
To meet your body like they just did
Counting every pore
Mountain
Valley
Cave.
I can't wait for you to do the same
Touch me, and squeeze me
And grab me, and...
Just wait for me in the staircase,
I'm on my way.

Tinta china

Te doy mi corazón
Así, envuelto en papel de regalo
Todo tuyo
Sin preocupaciones.
Es tuyo para que lo cuides
O lo destruyas,
De igual manera te quiero
De igual manera te querré.
Te lo doy sin inhibición
Sin tapujos ni secretos
A ciegas...
Pero siempre te miro
Y siempre te escucho
Y te siento
Te sueño
Y me entrego
En cuerpo y alma
En acciones y en palabras
Me entrego y derramo el amor
Como tinta en papel.

Pillow case

I fall asleep
Hugging the pillows
That smell of you
After you were here

I hope your scent
Never leaves
Like I hope
You won't either.
