Forced Entry


I began writing this June 7th, and left it in the scrap heap.
I was listening to Donnie J. Klang's Prince inspired song "Pretty Girls Cry" and remembered this poem and the intent behind it.
As John Mayer said, "I don't trust myself with loving you...".
This is a WARNING!

"Don't be out there making all the pretty girls cry..." - D. Klang

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You're so defensive
Like it's the first time someone's broken into your heart
I must warn you not to care for me, don't fall for me
You don't have to look far to see the trail of hearts left in my wake
It’s not like I try, but I can't deny that I hurt
Others have added me to their list of guys to blame
And I don't blame them one bit
So you better run from me before you even consider letting me inside

All I seem to do is dream of you
I know that I shouldn't be
But you're always sleeping with me
I know that I won't be able to love you half as good
As I do with my eyes closed
It's a mystery the way I love you so much while my eyes are closed

I dream of all the countless ways that I could love you
I know that when I awake my love won't be half as good
As every moment we shared that only I’m aware of
Yet I try to make everyday like the dreams in my head
That my heart wants to make real

I'm always a beautiful disaster
You deserve a better man
When the love is right, there's no need to push or pull
And yet I still leave
So leave now, go on and be free now
Forced entry into your heart
I apologize in advance for the tears I'll make you cry
True love lost has no cure

Everyday Thinking


Took 20 Minutes to write, written back to back with "Flicker".
Actually my mind was working on both poems simultaneously,
so I found myself going back and forth while writing.
A.D.D. can make writing interesting.

"If you're ready to take a chance, I'll pick you up again..." - D. Klang

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyday thinking
I'm not the man you fell in love with
I'm not even trying to be
Anything close to my heart's at a distance staring at me from the shelf
I can't be who I was
Why can't we be open?
Where do I begin? Where do you get off?

I need you to keep me away from my mistakes
When I'm selfish and alone, thinking of myself instead of you
I know what it means to be wrong
When I find your goodness to be staggering and overwhelming
I tried to tell you about my scars and all the ways that I hurt
And that didn't help, oh I know
I played keep away when I only wanted you closer
Well I guess I won because there's no sign of you coming back
There's no sign that we'll be coming back

Here's to a life with some direction and protection from the sun
That burns away our common sense
All our lives not knowing what was killing us
I hope, but don't know if that'll ever stop
But as long as I'm alive I know who I'll be thinking of
It was you; it's you and always will be
You who knew me best
When I was anything but myself
It was you who knew me best
Oh I know that I was wrong before, but I plan to get this one right
I just might be closer than I know
Give me a sign that I haven't got long to go
One by one with every step that I take
Everyday I'll be thinking of you

Flicker


Took 15 Minutes to write.

"As close as close could be, you and me..." - Nasri

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Always on my mind - Close to heart
Don't want to be alone, although I know it's going to be a while
I can't get my fill
Hush my heart; drown out my thoughts with your voice
It certainly doesn't get any better then when I have you near
If you don't hear it in my voice, certainly you'll see it in my eyes

Stand aside when I decide to come after you
Somehow only you know how I got here
Each step took me further than I realized
How did I get caught up in you like this?
I want to seize the night, take you high
Never let go until you come down from your high

Oh wherever she walks flames can't be far behind
That spark in her eyes is just the beginning of something bigger
Like a match before the sun, her heat burns brighter than anything I've ever known
In my eyes you're on fire
Don't want to put you out, let’s add some fuel to this fire
We won't be satisfied until we burn away the night
I can't get what I want from anyone but you
You don't know what it's like to want someone so bad that nothing feels real
It’s unreal how you make me feel
I don't want to feel anything but you

Full of You


"So here we go again..." - Alexz Johnson & Tim Rozon

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Touching me like the morning sunlight on my skin
You feel so warm
I'm not used to this, turn down the heat just a little
I don't want you gone; I just need to be able to see myself without you
I know that there's a million things wrong with what I just said
I shouldn't be able to see without you and yet I dare to look the other way instead
Knowing that I'll always see you even when I close my eyes
Cus I can't see what's in front of us
But I try to reach over the crowd to get a little closer

Do you what know is right before you?
Do you know what your heart is telling you?
Cus only you know what's right for you
I know that my heart beats as long as you walk with me
My mind, my heart and my dreams are always crossing paths with you
So how can this be wrong?
Tell me that we don't belong together like this

In the private moments we share things that they'll never know
But I can tell you this; she's the only way I'll go
Sleep with me - I just need your company
Don't wake me up, let me fall into those eyes
I want to sleep with you on my mind
Stay on me - Like the clothes on my back
I thought I had my head on my shoulders
But you've got my heart and that trumps anything I've got
This heart burns with a hope for your desire
Right here's where I want to be, right where you can see me

I'm so full of you, if only you knew
I've had it up to here with you, but I can't seem to get enough
Knowing that you can take me higher
I may not always know what I want
I may be wrong about us, but I've got you right where I want you
Or at least I'd like to think that my heart's where you'd like to be
So here we go again
