picture

colors made of words, phrases, sentences, lines.
With these feeble mediums I paint you.

Your hair gentle waves
each crest created by the pebble thrown into a pond
concentric troughs
slowly fading to an indistinct ripple

Each strand the elegant roan
sun glistening over manicured coat
beauty of the stallion standing tall and proud
captured by each hair flowing in the wind

The sun crests a distant hill
revealing rays of brilliance
the half crested moon
brilliantly white
this is your smile

Here my palette runs dry
my colors all used
maybe someday I will fill the rest
I will see you through all senses
Then and only then
words will be forgotten

Superman

I want to tell you
That I would die for you
Show the world
How I care

Let them all see
Living only just to be
Part of who you are

There is a hero inside
Longing to escape
Free the world
Soar forevermore

Caged inside my heart
longing to be free
hoping to taste the air
unbound by all that hinders me

I am not this man
I wish I could be
please take me as I am
normal nothing grand

Here now I stand
torn between two worlds
normal versus longed for
dreaming for abnormalty
