Trying To Smile

I don't like this feeling.
I don't like feeling.
I don't like waiting.
I am so impatient.
I don't want you to know
That I think of you.
I don't want to know
that you already know I do.
I can hear your words whispered in my ear.
I can picture you, 
 working in the dust bowl days.
I picture the friends you have and the time invested.
I picture that heart of your's how it craves for more.
I don't want you to know that's . 
I want to feel the pulsing heartbeat 
Even when I am living the day trying not to think.
I will feel the crash the waves.
my mind recalls you and
my body has a physical reaction.
I tingle and blush.
 My body will even shudder.
I am frustrated by these feelings.
I don't like the loss of control.
I don't know if you have what it takes
 to give me what I want.
I am looking for someone special.
That could be you.
I am not going to even believe.
That I still need trust and intimacy.
I need you to feel like you have won a prize.
I don't want to pry complements out of you
like you are a oyster.
I know there is a black pearl inside. 
Still....

I let you in and maybe I should not have.
I don't want to complicate things.
That feeling of passion will fade.


With stream of consciousness I look at the desire and the practical. 
In the end, I decide to let it go.
 I am not someone who will always be around.

I told you that I didn't like the feeling.
I cannot stand to share my personal struggle with individuals. 
I do it to feel the connection. 
Damn, the consequence. 
You gave what you could and it's over for good. 
I feel better having left you in the past.
Where you belong, a fragment of a memory.
Just once in awhile you will shine.
Then, I remember the desire.
This time I will not let you in. 
I am tired of trying to smile.

Favorite Color

I have never been able to answer confidently that red or yellow or any color as being the one that resonates as my favorite. Up until this...
