Untitled #9

Pick me up if I shatter
Glue me back to a whole
Hold me gently in your arms
Carefully handle my soul

Where do I sign up, my love?

I know your sister’s subscribed
Your mother and brother too
Your friends and the rest of the family
Your pet cat and kangaroo

How do I sign up for your love?
Your love your love your love
How do I sign up, my love?

I know you treat your members fair
But I’d want more from my share
A little bonus wouldn’t be bad
Come on, girl; make me glad

Where do I sign up for your love?
Your love your love your love
Where do I sign up, my love?

I’m looking for a lifetime subscription
Plus a premium membership
I’m willing to pay whatever it takes
For this priceless partnership

Finding a good deal is always tough
I’m sure your love would be enough
No other offers I need to see
Once you lay the contract for me

I Know

I know I love you because
I think about you even when I’m not trying
To think about you; I’m dying
To be around you; I’m flying
In the clouds with you; I’m sighing
When I’m not with you; I’m lying
To see a smile on you; I’m crying
When the moment is through; my undying
Affections for you are implying
That I love you

Never Vacuum Your Heart

Promise me
You’ll never vacuum your heart
Never discard my love
Never scrap my affections
Never trash my memories
Or ever bin my emotions

If my love litters your heart
Let it remain so
Let it be untidy, unclean
If you ever clean it
I’ll make it messy again

We Float

We float
Through the prisms of space and time
Through the eyes of the mind
Through each other

We float
Without a destination
With imagination
Holding each other

We float
Zig-zag, vroom-vroom
Straight and round and round
Smiling

We float
We float
Nobody to catch us
Nobody to instruct us
Faraway
We float

Forever Flawed

When I see her I know
That I cannot be perfect
She is my flaw
My fatal weakness
She possesses me
I am in her control
With one blink of her eye
I lose myself to her
Is it within me to overcome?
Do I succumb too easily?
I have heard stories of strong men
Weakened by the power of love
What have I to lose?
If perfection demands that I cease to love
Then forever flawed I wish to be

Every Moment With You

Every year with you is an adventure
Every month with you is a phenomenon
Every week with you is a jubilation
Every day with you is a festival
Every hour with you is a revelry
Every minute with you is an ecstasy
Every moment with you is a poetry

Deep Beneath The Ocean Bed

Deep beneath the ocean bed
Where no man has ever tread
Blossom a pair of dainty flowers
In a cave where mermaids tend
And fishes sing for nights on end
For the plants holding love’s powers

It is said that the glowing bloom
Were consigned to lasting gloom
Eons ago in the guise of lovers
Brutally killed and dumped in sea
By their own damned family
They found a home in the ocean’s covers

There they blush for eternity
Away from all monstrosity
Tangled and embracing for suns
And I know this to be true
I’ve watched their dance and sang their due
I myself was a salmon once

Thinking Of You

Early morning when I get up from my bed
Your thoughts are spinning circles in my head
It’s these thoughts that get me through every day
Even at night they refuse to go away

I’m in class and I steal a look at you
It’s become my favourite silly-thing to do
I know you’ve caught me once or maybe twice
And then your smile has made me feel so nice

After school I go home all on my own
Hoping you’d ask me why I am walking alone
A hundred times I’ve run it in my mind
But no good answer I seem to find

At home I hardly ever seem to talk
Mom and Dad plan to send me to a doc
They worry when there is really nothing to
All I am doing is thinking of you

She Loves Me

Her love is bigger than all the jewels adorning the queen
She loves me more than a star loves to gleam
Her love is larger than all the love that I have ever seen
She loves me more than a poet loves to dream
Her love is greater than heaven and hell and everything in between
She loves me as much as I love her it seems
