Though your lips never caressed the nape of my neck...
          Your hands never touched the curve of my waist...
    Your arms never gave me warmth...
And, though your words were never spent on me...

It was your eyes that failed to see, everything you had in me

-CF

Why do my eyes lie to me?
Why is hope the only thing I see? 
Do my eyes see things not there?
Images, moments we never shared

Why do I see something more in you?
Why isn’t there a clearer view?
Why do I see something more than you can see?
Is that the reason you find fault in me?

Maybe my eyes didn’t lie
Perhaps the reason why my heart still cries?
Nevertheless, I know your eyes have failed to see
Everything that you had in me

Living in silence
I can hear the deafening truth
I genuinely lost my way
Looking to find something in your eyes
My heart animated unreality
My desire…
Nothing but greed
Always answering your call…
My fidelity to you
Leaving you in the past
It’s so very hard
Believing I love you…
Is even harder
Convincing myself it was wrong
Is a bridge too far
The truth flows through my veins
And, the truth is all I have

My heart beat tells me my truth…
I live a melody that sings of you

Laugh every now and then? Vaffanculo…

I will never be sorry
For the love in my heart
For saying what I need to throw into the universe
For doing what I must do
For living what I feel
And, though you look at me with disdain
With the same eyes that once swallowed me whole
No, I will never be sorry

Only think of me
And say…
“She was not small”

I decided
Long ago
To stop asking
Do I deserve you in my life?

I decided
Long ago
To stop asking
Out loud in the night
Will you ever hold my hand?

I decided
Long ago
I’m just going to love you
Because… I simply love who I love

Now I ask the night
To hold you safe
To bring you joy
And, that you sometimes remember I smiled for you

I ask the heavens
To leave love in my heart
Instead of begging
To take it all away

I ask that love never leaves me
So, my heart keeps on beating
When I miss something I never had
Or when I remember, how easily I was erased

I decided
Long ago
That this is how I will love you

C/F

Can you hear me?

Moving past 
Stepping forward
Sto andando oltre
Until I can't remember the color blue
Until I can close my eyes, and not see you

Nei tuoi occhi azzurri
Ho trovato tutto quello che avevo perso in me
Mi sveglierò con te, ogni giorno della mia vita

I want to be all of me with you
Not less
I want to be seen
Through your eyes
To see you
As you
Bathe in the truth of you
Stand with you
Hold you
Drown in the smell of you
Lose myself in your neck
In your arms
Because you… are you

I want to build boundaries
Together
Know I never have to let you go
Believe…
Fucking really believe
That I will exist in you
The way you exist in me

You are not mine
Yet… You are
And,
I will love you
For all my life

Ink spills on the page

Pen and paper, words flow free

Shallow is his heart

Turn West, feel the wind
Your hand on your heart, I’m there
And, you are in mine

Verses of poetry.

Coldplay, lyrics from “Fix You”

She’s but one woman
A tempest within, rains fall
Love feeds a new Spring

When your heart feels as big as the sky, you sing. No?

” I could light the night up with my soul on fire, I could make the sun shine from pure desire…”

Cyndi Lauper sings words straight from my heart in her song “True Colors.” I have always seen things differently than most, and I wish you could see the world through my eyes…

“If this world makes you crazy
And you’ve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I’ll be there

And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you…”

Do you know what it means to love someone? It means you bring that person into “being.”

Love is what I want for me.

Love is what I give to you.

Tonight I am a million miles away, thinking of dreams that may never be…
