I see you everyday,
Have something to say,
But can’t,
I’m noticed as much as a small ant by a plant in the rain forest,
It’s like you’re a state and I’m a tourist
Because I come to see you,
Always.
Today is the same as all days
Because all days always end the same like they’re scripted,
Like all plays.
Your neglect, is cold,
Like ice cream sundaes.
And as cold as my house is on lonely Sundays,
Where I have nothing to do but wait for Mondays,
I kill time by reacting my Saturdays,
In which I react my Fridays,
Where I fantasize about your eyes and how they tantalize
Me with the demise of my altercation,
Not too long ago I’ve spawned my realization
That I’ll forever be confined in my situation,
You see, my life without you is like an animation,
Over and over in continuation,
Each day is the same,
Not even a change in vibration.
And I can’t even have you by my side,
In my imagination.

I love you,
I want you,
I want to be with you every second of the day,
And if I only had a minute with you
There is so much I would say,
I would tell you,
“I love you, so much,”
And we would find our special place where our hands would touch.


Eyes made of diamond.
Face painted with beauty.
The scent of a candy store.
The sound of each step you make,
As quiet as a squirrel but as loud as a dog fight,
And your sweet voice is as silent as midnight,
But at the same time as alerting as a snake bite.

I am the classroom ceiling corner,
I wish I could walk over to you,
But I can only move to my four faces,
I wish I could talk to you,
But I’m just echoes’ rendezvous places,
I wish, I wish, I wish,
Webster would have defined me…
So I could mean something to you,
Just as if you designed me.

Nice writing...reminds me of one time when I was interested in a woman, for the wrong reasons in my situation, and I ask her for her phone number...She informed me that she didn't pass out her phone number...and she didn't ask for mine either...
Of course we all know that a woman does give out her number to someone she is interested in...perhaps not right away, but at her given moment of choice...James
