Wrapped in Dreams

A beautiful poem.

smilingtomyself

Wrapped in sheets, she bids goodnight,

Holding to her pillow tight.

Body curled, prepared to sleep,

Easing into slumber deep.

Soft hand curled beneath her chin,

Bedding trapped between her shins.

Gently curving naked spine,

Parted lips the hue of wine.

Muscles languid, bed their mold,

Hair spread like a halo gold.

Shadowed light from moonlit beams,

Watch over romantic dreams.

And when her dreams begin to rise,

She stirs with heavy-lidded eyes.

She pulls the sheets across her skin,

And drifts away to dream again.

Something Can Come Of Nothing

A day wasted on others is not wasted on one’s self.

How To Save A Life

There are many ways to save a life.

You could become a doctor.

A lawyer

Or maybe a chauffeur 

I’m learning to love.

How can you accept me if I don’t?

For the words I wrote 

Nothing but contradictions

One day in love with love

The next day not believing it existed

Who was I to doubt?

I have no clue.

Know Your Worth

You can give away your body 

Your heart

Your mind

Give it away for free

Pieces chipped away with time

Until you feed the earth

And reach beyond

Believe in something you can’t find

Faith

How could I?

Because I choose 

No chains to be found

No one will hold me down

The Cave (Portrait #8)

I Need Your Love

Conversation between man and son at a restaurant:

Son: Why do they call it secret sauce?

Dad: Because you don’t know what’s in it

Son: But if I put it on there it’s not a secret

Dad: It is if you don’t know it’s in there

Son: But I put it on, so I do know it’s there

Dad: Then it’s not a secret

Son: (after a pause) Why do you always get the same thing as me?

Dad: It tastes good

Son: But you’re copying me

Dad: Maybe you’re copying me.  I’m older

Son: No you’re not

Dad: I’m not? I’m your Dad

Son: My birthday is before yours

Dad: I guess you’re right then

At this point….I had to chuckle.  This meant they knew I was listening.  But it was worth it. 🙂

This Above All: To Thine Own Self Be True

Polonius:
This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell, my blessing season this in thee!

Demarova: A Brief History

I am a huge fan of online role play. Back in the day, I used to come up with intros and watch giddly how the stories played out. This is an old one of mine that I’m revamping. If anyone would like to join in, don’t hesitate to ask.
