Maybe not as constant now

About the Whys

Contemplating love and the falling in…

Excerpted from   –   About the Whys

Looking into pain filled eyes
I want to run but cannot
When she smiles I’ve just one thought
And the same as when she cries

Oh I’m in trouble…

That’s Real

Contemplating the nature of love…

Excerpted from   –   That’s Real

Despite what you feel
I love you, like you, am more attracted to you than
Ever. Each year, each month, each day that passes has fanned
My passion’s fire until the heat makes me kneel…
