Sudden stillness sweeps thru Sudden stillness sweeps throughSudden stillness sweeps thru by ~CheekyValiance
only a lark chirps in the bush
thorny brambles stand tall
where the pines cracked and lie still
the white flower hangs her head
something in me breathes a sweet wind
which feeds the tiny bulbs and seeds
encourages the mutual needs, the sapling trees
huddle in the sun where once was shade
happiness puts down roots in gloom
the spring sprung forth winter's wet abyss
new life steps forth to fill the room
on the eve of the new moon
I write you of my love, sweet dove
which amply fills the swamps and streams
climbs the mountain where rivers dream
to slide down the sweet sides of fire
burn the banks w


a man can grasp aira man can grasp air by ~CheekyValiance
You make me feel the best
and the worst in short succession.
When I am with you
I am fed by your laughter
warmed by your smile
revived in your company.
Know it or not you speak
love with every action.
When you are away
you are less interested
you are untalkative
the messages you send
have multiple
recipients.
am I unworthy
of a personal message?
or am I in your inner circle?
I don't know how to take it.
The dark feeling comes on so quickly
your love for me
if you have love for me
speaks supremely quietly
I can hear something..
Are you saying Love?
I keep telling myself Death.
I know it sounds sick
and that I have


You are oceans I don't care what you give meYou are oceans by ~CheekyValiance
or what you don't.
I just love you
with no qualifiers.
I don't love you for your body.
I don't love you for your womanhood.
I don't love you because you treat me nice.
I love you because you're you.
There's everything about
you that I love.
You are raw, you are vivid.
You haunt my dreams.
My heart is ravaged
with hunger for your love.
I feel so weak and forceful
as if I might suddenly die
from this encompassing depth.
You are the oceans
I am the sand.
You are more incredible with each encounter.
You seem to grow in brilliance.
I don't love you because you love me.
I don't know that you lov


the largest part of a man You say you're notthe largest part of a man by ~CheekyValiance
seeing anyone else
I trust you
but who knows what
that means to you.
You shop the spectrum
of males
and I can
not acquire a single
real lover.
Must I court endless
women in search of
the smallest requitement
You're a boy she said
you don't feel
the same about love.
so
fucking
inconsequential.
a
talking
walking
fucking accessory
I am a paper towel to her.
(is there any value to my life?)
what does everyone
have to hold
over me?
Everyone walking
around
smiling knowingly
What gives me away?
I look just like them.
but I am not a human.
Why so
