Nothing Less Than Romance

Do I really need a reason why I feel the way that I feel

Maybe so, maybe not, but it still feels real

I told you that you deserve nothing but the best, and that won't ever change

So just tell me what I have to do to prove to you that I can be more than just a name

It might seem as if my feelings for you arose out of the blue

But just know that every single word written on this page is only for you

You're such an easy person to talk to, I can't believe I told you half of the things that I have and haven't done

I just can't let another beautiful woman like yourself pass me by and wish there was something more that I could've done

I only have one simple request at this point in time

Just weigh the possibility of there being a you and I

We haven't had many conversations, but the few that we had opened my eyes wider

Why should you settle for a dull lit light when you can have something much brighter

I feel like it's now or never, so I'll do what I can and take my chance

But just remember, if I myself were a poem my title would have to be...

Nothing Less Than Romance

The Man With Six Faces

Passion is what his heart tells him to feel

Yet his Rage sends him flying over the hill

Courageous he is, all the way down to his soul

Then his Anger takes over and courage becomes old

He's on the verge of destruction if he isn't released from his Manic state

Then along comes Love to rescue this tortured being from all that he hates

Poetic Reign

I have seen the pieces of shattered mirror beneath my feet

Along with a crushed heart as hard as concrete

I laugh at that mirror and the man that stood before it

Engulfed with so much hate, he could do everything but ignore it

Yet he tossed a stone through this mirror to get a better view

And watched himself grow into the poet that he never knew

That man is I, and I am that man

The man who has the power to bring a beach to the sand

My poems will never cease to exist, as they have become a stain

And I will not cease either until every soul on this Earth has felt my poetic reign

Live and Let Die

Live and let die, so easy to say

Harder to let go, much easier to stay

With so much hurt, can you feel my pain

Live and let die, feel my poetic reign

It has ripped me apart and is still tearing me down

For days I could wear nothing but a frown

Live and let die, is it all really worth it

Never again, from now on it's completely worthless

Such sorrow, but with few regrets

More anger and fewer debts

There I could stand, wish, and cry

But this time I live and let the pain die



The Longest Poem Ever Written

...lost in your beauty

The Blind Man

This man has no eyes yet he can see the high seas

And joyfully glance at the doves in the trees

He has no vision yet can see in your heart

Nothing evades him not even the dark

How can he see these many wonderful things

And still know the difference between circles and rings

He's just a blind man how can this be

Close your eyes and dream soon you will see

Romantic Jazz

Subtle jazz gently plays as I gaze into your eyes

Every night I see you in my dreams leaves me with no surprise

I have yet to see a woman that can match your beauty inside and out

You give me this overwhelming joyful feeling that just makes me want to shout

I know your face and see your name on every book and stand

I would let you be the star only if I could be your number one fan

Would you let me be the one to take you places throughout your dreams

I could be the one to open your heart if you would just give me the keys

As the sun sets low the stars shine bright and the moon begins to glow

Trust in my love and watch the epic seed of romance grow
