Reaching For Forgiveness

I'm sorry I hurt you. I'm sorry I lied. I'm sorry it felt like I tried to desert you. I'm sorry how I made you feel inside.

I'm sorry that I made you feel like second best. I'm sorry I put our friendship to the test.

I'm sorry for all that I did and more. I'm sorry that I made you feel ignored.

Could we have a second chance? What do you think? What is your stance?

Do you think we could try again? It hurts me to think I lost a friend.

I think that we had something great. Is this all too little or a bit too late?

I'm reaching out to you for forgiveness. I'm hoping that your heart can do this.

Not Your Toy

I'm not a toy.

I'm not a game.

I need someone that feels the same.

I'm sorry if this seems forward.

I don't want to talk when you feel bored.

I want to know you.

I want something real.

I want to grow with you.

It's just how I feel.

You say you like me.

Then you say sorry, my mistake.

When you do this to me,

It makes my whole heart break.

I don't want someone who says hello now and then.

Were you ever truly a friend?

You initiated, but immediately ghosted.

Couldn't you stay instead, like you promised and boasted?

This is why you won't see it again.

I take it all back, I'm at the end.

I'm at the end of my rope.

You and I are through.

You did this to me?

No.

You did this to you.

The Time Is Now

There's a right time and place for love.

Besides baby, I thought you had enough.

You say baby I'm sorry, I was scared.

I say what, of little old me?

Then I run my fingers through your hair.

You scold me and say I was serious.

I say darling, so was I.

Your love makes me delirious.

You roll your eyes and say, enough with the jokes.

I say darling, I'm not laughing.

Now I need you to hold.

I'm not going to turn your love away.

I'm just going to try to make you stay.

Darling I love you.

And I can't hide it anymore.

Darling I need you.

And I just can't fight it anymore.

Baby I've been hurt and messed around.

But now my feet are firmly on the ground.

I know you said that we were just friends.

But the way you're looking at me now.

I don't think you have any defense.

So try to love me baby.

Just try a little while.

I can't help but love you baby.

Those eyes, those lips, that smile.

Ooooh yeah.

Come to me with all of your heart.

Oooh baby so you think maybe

It's time to let it start?

I Know

I know you're nervous.

I know that you're scared.

But you got to hear this.

I'll always be there.

I know you're anxious.

And you're always stressing.

I know you can't take this.

Because you're always second guessing.

I want to be there for you.

In the rain and shine.

It doesn't matter if.

If you won't be mine.

I'll come to you softly.

Until we build trust.

I won't push you, that's not me.

You can't change my love.

I want to love you.

I just want to be there.

I want to hold you.

Show you love and care.

You're running around in circles.

And around my heart.

I don't want to chase you.

That wouldn't be smart.

Just let me show you.

A better kind of love.

Just let me hold you.

And tell you that you're enough.

I've been in the darkness far too long.

Could you be the one,

To help me carry on?

Let your light so shine.

Unto all the world.

Could you shine your light on me?

And help my wings unfurl?

Hello darkness, my old friend.

I'm hoping this could be.

The start of a brand new day.

I'm begging on my knees.

Help my sadness go away.

I can see the sun.

There's a rainbow up ahead.

This sadness is no fun.

I'd rather be happy instead.

Ghosts And Goblins

Lots of ghosts and goblins creeping on this site.

I don't act like them.

I wouldn't give you a fright.

I would never leave you out of jealousy or spite.

So let me cheer you up, let me talk to you tonight.

I just want to be your friend.

I want to treat you like a human being.

I don't act like them.

I'm not in the habit of being deceiving.

They leave you now and then.

Are you seeing what I am seeing?

I just want to talk to you.

I don't believe in talking and then leaving.

Lots of ghosts around tonight.

It's feeling like a haunted house.

Sometimes it gives me a fright.

I like to be a different kind of friend.

So go ahead and try me.

I hope our friendship will never end.

The Color Of Us

You and me and azure skies

Are slowly turning red tonight.

Red like the color of my heart

That you so slyly made come apart.

We meet at sunset.

I'll see you soon.

So we may embrace

Under a full yellow moon.

Yellow like I'm feeling now

When you tell me

Please come out.

I just want to be with you.

Will you promise not to hurt me too?

I know it might be a big ask.

Lately my heart's been feeling black.

Black like the sky that's full of stars.

Could we make this night yours and ours?

It's not quite black, but turning violet.

Look at how the stars the sky lit.

Violet like the color of royalty.

For a love meant for a queen.

You deserve that kind of passion.

Just stay with me is all I'm asking.

The Space Between Spaces

I tried to find someone in these dark and empty halls.

I call out to you. My voice was echoing off the walls.

There's nothing here for me in these dark and empty spaces.

Nothing but lonely fear, and hauntingly familiar faces.

I tried to find you here, but there was no one there but ghosts.

You went and disappeared, just when I needed you most.

I know that you are probably hiding.

I tried to find you.

I'm right there beside you.

But you just stopped trying.

You used to come to me with smiles and surprises.

Now look what you've done to me.

I guess this is what a lonely night is.

I'm standing here in the darkness.

I'm standing with a light.

I'm wondering where your heart is.

I've lost the will to fight.

An Unforgettable Night

My heart's been in a knot, for three lonely days.

But now I've finally got the words to say.

I'll finally say, what's been on my mind.

I'm just stringing words together, don't take it as a sign.

Come in now baby. Step inside to me.

I was thinking maybe, you might be ready.

Ready for fun, the night has just begun.

I want to see your heart and clothes come undone.

I know that you've been teasing me.

Don't you think it's time, that you were pleasing me.

I'm a patient man, but baby I have limits.

Don't you understand, That it's time to begin it?

Come on my baby, there's no need to be shy.

I can help you get ready, for an unforgettable night.

We could take it slow, and just see where it goes.

We could take it faster. With love, joy, and laughter.

We could do anything that you like best.

But by the end of the night baby, I want to see you out of that dress.

Buttons popping real cool and slow.

Honey, I'm not stopping, when you're putting on that show.

You slip that dress down on to the floor.

It makes a cute little sound, and it's got me wanting more.

Soon you are standing in just your underwear.

Let me come in for landing.

After all, fair is fair.

Kissing touching, and undressing a little more.

Tongues and fingers touching.

Taking their time to explore.

I'm loving every minute of discovery.

But the best thing about it,

Is it's between you and me.

My tongue and fingers are touching and flicking.

All of the right places.

Soon we both feel hot and sticky.

I come closer and you pull me in.

You never say no sir.

Your body just pulls me in.

A Little Chat

Hello, could you come here for a minute?

I'd like to talk with you.

You've been ignoring my affection.

I'm gonna turn that direction.

I'm gonna take it, and spin it into something new.

You've been thinking I'm fine.

But you know that's a lie.

I want to hold you.

I know that's bold to.

It's bold to say.

But I just can't help it anymore.

I've been feeling alone.

Like a man without a home.

I'm waiting for you to knock on my door.

I just want to love you.

But you're ignoring my pleas.

Aren't I enough to?

Enough to help you feel at ease?

Hello there baby.

Come inside and shut the door.

I just need to see you.

Hello there darling.

I can't take it anymore.

What it take to please you?

Don't Choose Me

If you choose me, you choose misery.

That's the way it seems to be.

Everyone seems so scared of me.

They choose not a hair nor head of me.

If you choose this, you choose emptiness.

Why'd it have to come down to this?

I'll just sit here and be blue I guess.

But sorry for the drama, I digress.

If you choose us, you won't get enough.

What, are you delirious?

You just can't be serious.

I'm not the one I'm appearing as.

I'm not the person I appear to be.

I'm not enough to satisfy your needs.

I'll never be enough for what you need.

If you want to stay hungry,

Then on my love, just come and feed.

I'll never be the one to be your person.

Don't try it baby. Your mood might worsen.

I'll never be the one, to satisfy your cravings.

Just wait a little longer.

And I might be a life and love worth saving.

Will you hold on a little longer?

Can you wait, for me to be stronger?

My heart's come undone, and it's bleeding all over.

If you think I'm the one, can we please just start over again?

I get scared now and then.

Will you be my friend?

Would you hold me again?

Do you have some love to lend?

I Don't Want To Know

I heard you crying the other day.

I came to you in a heartbeat.

There was no time, and no other way.

When it comes to you, nothing else competes.

You know I couldn't hurt you, even if I tried.

You know I could never desert you.

The very thought of it made me cry.

I know that you might not exactly feel the same.

But I'll still be there for you. Everyday and always.

I'd give you everything, more than enough.

Baby, I don't even kid.

Baby, if this isn't what they call love.

Then I don't want to know what love is.

Another perfect sunrise,

Another beautiful day.

And with it came the thoughts of you

And to my surprise,

I know you felt the same.

You didn't say a word, I just knew.

I could never hurt you.

I only have love in my heart.

And I knew that you knew.

Our love was about to start.

I'd give you everything, more than enough.

Baby, I don't even kid.

Baby, if this isn't what they call love.

Then I don't want to know what love is.

Fleeting moments of connection.

I didn't say that it was perfection.

I have a good feeling deep inside my heart.

Oh baby, baby. Could you just please help our loving start?

I'd give you everything, more than enough.

Baby, I don't even kid.

Baby, if this isn't what they call love.

Then I don't want to know what love is.

Cocoon

You've been wondering where I've been.

I've been hiding in my cocoon.

I need to hide now and then.

From my sadness and blues.

I built up my cocoon from tiny silken threads.

I'm not coming out anytime soon.

With all these sad thoughts in my head.

It's been sad and lonely lately.

It's taken away my health.

The thing that I've learned lately.

Is that I'm better by myself.

Just leave me alone.

Let me feel what I need to feel.

This cocoon has become my home.

I'm the only one that can help me heal.

When I'm ready to face the world.

I'll spread my butterfly wings.

When they are ready to be unfurled.

Maybe my heart will no longer sting.

The most painful thing about it.

I'm finding out who my friends are.

I never had a doubt about it.

All I was left with was me, and the moon and stars.

Une orbite Dans La Cuisine [An Orbit In The Kitchen]

​

A Collab with u/StrangeLittleOrbit

You are like a strange enigma and an orbit wrapped in one.

I love it when you talk with me.

You make my life more fun.

You can be hard to figure out with your sly and subtle ways.

But I love it when you talk to me.

You make me smile for days.

Your words are so hypnotic.

They make me come undone.

Your spicy poems are so erotic.

You are second to none.

__________________________

You call my words hypnotic,

but yours have pulled me in.

You write with something raw and honest,

and somehow touch the places words rarely win.

Perhaps that’s why our verses linger,

like flavors I can’t quite name.

You’re a chef with more than fire -

you season hearts, then leave them aflame.

___________________________

Please come into my kitchen.

I've cooked something up for you.

The flavors pop. You won't be able to stop,

What my cooking does to you.

Wishing Tonight

Wishing on a star tonight.

Are you looking to the skies?

Hoping that our hearts align.

What are you seeing with your eyes?

Are you wishing under the same star as me?

Are you wishing that love wouldn't feel so far like me?

Are you wishing just to feel someone's arms?

Are you wishing for someone, to keep you safe from harm?

Let me be the star you're wishing on tonight.

I want you to look at me, I want to help your heart feel light.

I want to be the one, to help your heart take flight.

So let's wish until we see the sun. It just feels so right.

Wishing on a dream tonight,

And looking at the moon.

Will I be in your dreams tonight?

I hope I meet you soon.

Wishing I could just take flight.

Just like a gold balloon.

Mars And Venus

I don't hate you baby.

I just don't understand you.

I can't read your mind,

or your subtle signs.

You better know,

That I don't plan to.

I'm a simple man, and I don't understand subtlety.

If we walk hand in hand, and you help me understand,

That would be enough for me.

Men are from Mars.

Women are from Venus.

Why's it have to be so hard,

For them to say what they are thinking?

They can be so coy and adorable.

With all their sly and subtle ways.

They can be so cold, when they think they are unlovable.

They can leave you feeling confused for days.

I want to love you baby.

But you say we're just friends.

The next day you say you're in love with me.

I'm not a complex man, so help me understand.

Is it so hard, to say just what you mean?

I don't understand you.

And I don't plan to.

I don't have the time for games.

Is it so hard to just speak plain?

Men are from Mars.

Women are from Venus.

Why's it have to be so hard,

For them to say what they are thinking?

They can be so coy and adorable.

With all their sly and subtle ways.

They can be so cold, when they think they are unlovable.

They can leave you feeling confused for days.

A Glimmer Of You

I was driving home alone.

The rain was coming down in sheets.

I felt a loneliness like I've never known.

I whispered to the darkness please.

Did you hear my whisper?

I hope it carried out to you.

I thought I saw a glimmer.

I thought I saw a glimmer of you.

I went into my home so bare.

It felt so dark and empty.

I was hoping to find you there.

But instead it was just me.

I know you don't quite feel the same.

I know you don't feel the way I feel.

But that doesn't stop the pain.

It doesn't make my love less real.

I went and laid in my bed.

My thoughts, they turned to you.

I pulled the covers over my head.

And whispered for a love so true.

I know you don't know where your heart is.

I know it's beating far from me.

This separation is what makes it hardest.

You know it makes it hard to breathe.

Did you hear my whisper?

I hope it carried out to you.

I thought I saw a glimmer.

I thought I saw a glimmer of you.

Forever Waiting

Waiting for you all night long, but you never came.

Waiting on a familiar song, that never played.

Waiting on a caring friend to comfort me.

But as the day came to its end, I knew some things would never be.

Waiting on a bus, that never arrived.

Waiting on a chance for us, but it never survived.

Waiting on a chance for love, I was not surprised.

When that chance never seemed to come, what could I do but cry?

Sometimes chances come and go.

Sometimes with life, and its happenstances, you just never know.

But don't cry for me, a new day will come along.

I'll just turn on my radio, and wait for my favorite song.

Life can be cruel and sad.

Isn't it funny that way?

But please don't feel too bad.

Tomorrow's a brand new day.

Even though time doesn't wait for anyone, maybe it will wait for me.

I'll just keep holding on.

Maybe tomorrow will be.

Maybe tomorrow will shine down for me.

I'm not going to wait around.

I'll just have to wait and see.

Maybe that old familiar song will play again.

Maybe I'll meet someone that I can call a friend.
