Things you never think you'll need to explain 101

things you never think you'll need to explain: why cat's don't play Frisbee, and how even if they did, it wouldn't be with a brush.

"I look like a Freak!"

While my mother and I were shopping yesterday, she picked up a few outfits for Elijah. He put a new one on today, walked out of his bedroom and said very excitedly, "I LOOK LIKE A FREAK!"

Bliss

Something so natural
so beautiful so real
Your taste on my mouth
your warmth on my skin

I run black fingernails through
your hair
your teeth lightly graze
the softness of my neck

I realize
this is bliss

So many years gone by
and yet
the fire still remains

New Love

1/9/08

there is nothing like the total
desperation
to know him from the inside out
eyes, ears, lips, face
memorization as if he will disappear or
fade away

the desire to give your heart over
to open up and let him climb inside
to hide nothing, yet every detail is urgent
and sweet

feeling like you can fly
but away from him you will falter
an incomprehensible emotion
of depths so great, you only hope it will last

forever
