I am far from perfect
Work in progress if ever one
I believe the work would be worth it
Though it would surely never be done.

Far from desperate for love
Though love is everything I am
Won’t ever settle for less than I should
Though when I do I’ll better the man.

I am full of flaws
Make them obvious as can be
For one of my biggest flaws
Is I am always me.

Don’t like wasting time on small things
Have a distaste for most things fake
For I learned the value of real things
Not long after I learnt to tie my lace.

I am far from perfect
Work in progress if ever one
I believe the work would be worth it
Though it would surely never be done.

Words of beauty words of grace
I feel a duty to yield with haste
Words you impart from the depth of your heart
Words so sharp they prep to start
Urge to start something so wrong
Served from the heart these words are so strong
So strong they shatter what matters in life
They long they natter mad hatters delight
In the night in the darkness most dreams are started
In the light discarded most dreams seem arduous
From free hearts now slaves mad hatters are made
When dreams held grave get caught in the shade.

I often wonder at the stars
As I wonder where you are
Be you near or are you far
I wish you nearer than you are.

Often gaze up through the haze
Of this wondrous starry maze
Ponder how you spend your days
As eyes wander their blended rays.

My eyes flick, among these sparkled dancers
Realise lies might fit more than sharper answers
My sides split, as if hit by lancers
As my eyes dip, from the skies romancers.

I think of what you’re doing
Try to think less of who you’re seeing
Wonder if you’re pursuing
Everything you were dreaming.

Everyone you pursue
I hope for you comes true
I romance the black sky
Though hope the skies blue for you.

Woman you’re special
Incredible and sweet
On another level
Incredibly deep
I feel like a devil
Ineligible and cheap
Yet you lift this devil
To an incredible peak.

Your eyes pierce my soul
As they weed my demons
Forgive my lies, make me whole
Till I feel I’m dreaming.
I rise to another role
And you’re the one that gives me reason
Never ceasing to surprise, my heart is stole
Indebted, to the very one that done the thieving.

The greatest gift you can give is time
I wish I gave you more of mine
What you are is pure divine
What we were is lost in time.

What we had was something great
You gave so much; did I only take?
I wish I gave you as much, so much it can ache
Though we can only hope to learn, from our mistakes.

For I can’t change
What has been done
For now it’s lost,
Though for awhile all was won.

From the old,
Something new will always come
I hope to grasp it with both hands
Something I hope you’ve already done.

Woman what a creature you are
What a beauty you can be
When you let your true features star
When you let your true beauty free.

Woman how divine you are
When you love so soulfully
Your soul becomes my strength
Your heart the spine in me.

Woman how elated I stand
When you stand next to me
You’re what makes this man
You’re what sets the boy free.

Wise words
Once said
Most lies occur
When you lie in bed.
