I'M HERE FOR YOU

The swirling winds can't silence your whisper
Raging storms can't kill your cry
I hear you calling out for me to answer
Love, I don't need to know why

I'm here for you always and forever
Until the need goes away
But I can't ever see that happening
Because my love for you will never fade

I'm here for you leading lady
Don't doubt my words or deeds
Your requests are my pleasure
To respond is a blessing to me

And like time never stops moving
I will never stop in love
I will give my best in action
And then try to give a little more

So let me say as I wrap up these thoughts
I will never leave you alone
My time with you is so precious
I can't stand the moments when you're gone

Goodnight...

Sleep is prison, devoid of vision
Like my photograph is stolen
A missing Kodak of you
Recovered when i awake to see
You have not changed

As lovely as I remember
when the night deceived me
into doing without you

But dawn is a flashlight, you are the spotlight
Good morning is now appropriate
with you in plain view
Picture perfect...

DROWNING IN LOVE

Splash!

Ankle high

The water is fine

Sampling your love

I think I like this kind

Knee high

I’m trying to see how deep is your love

And how much is for me

And is there enough

Taste high

Let love run through my hands

Refresh my thoughts

Respond to my commands

Waist high

I’m surrounded by love on all sides

I think I’ll swim out to see

 See if I survive

Breast high

I have found, a bosom of pleasure

But are you willing to offer

All of your hidden treasures

Neck high

I feel a strong wave coming on

Too late to turn back

In love I think I’m gone

Lips high, how are you

I would love to stay

I love your words

What and how you say

Eye high, I see you

And I know this is real

I am now drowning in your love

So lets seal the deal

By diving head first

Into a lovers paradise

The thought is so exhilarating

I want to stay here for life and

Ride this wave…

REMINISCE

I want to reminisce

But I need more memories

Don’t get me wrong

I’m talking about the kind with you and me

So lets do some new things

We’ve never done before

I got some ideas waiting

And yes they include yours

Lets see what happens

When we meet up on the moon

We’ll get there climbing stars

And once we do, lets not leave too soon

Lets count all the lovers

Passing by in the sky

And pray for the lonely ones

Who want love to stop by

Once we leave there

Lets dive into love

An ocean full of happiness

Made just for us

Next we’ll swim to a shore

Near a city of paradise

Lay on the beach of passion

With some wine chilled just right

But lets keep making memories

No need to even count

Lets enjoy reminiscing

That’s what this is all about

But no we’re not done

So lets make room for some more

Like a romantic dinner

Of fine dining on the floor

And we’ll let the music play

While I read the perfect words

To an audience of you

Saying things you’ve never heard

And beyond lies a bed of 1000 roses

Next to a chocolate bubble bath

With curtains made of steam

And mirrored messages on the glass

I’ll reach up for the light switch

To turn out the night

We’re now passengers boarding a Love plane

Ready to take a champagne fantasy flight

And while this plane is flying

I’ll take you on a trip

Of mental elevation

To a planet called pure bliss

So let the memories keep building

One, by one, by one

Because if a day comes we can’t make memories

To look back will be some kind of fun

But in the meantime lets make some more…

Like a picnic in the park

In the middle of the night

Serenaded by the sounds of nature

With the moon as our candlelight

To be continued…

SANCTUARY

Sanctuary where are you?
I need to lay my burdens down
And my head in your lap

I need relief from even myself at times
And you are the only remedy
Made for me

Free from judgment
And the only thing you’ve been convicted of is pleasure

A sanctuary I can’t find
I don’t own one
And life owns me because of your absence
I can visualize you
See your peace of mind
In this piece of mine
But I am broken without you

But at least I can function
With duct tape on my aura
But I hope by tomorrow
We become one

Sanctuary
I heard your nickname was utopia
Free from myopia
But I’m not at times
I heard you are cool water
Gentle breezes
Subtle sunshine
Whipped cream on dreams
A glass of Crown
A heavenly bed
Convertible car
Shining star

The perfect mate
A perfect date
A home cooked meal
A pen that feels
Words that soothe
Music that grooves
Love uninhibited
Love unlimited

Walks on the beach
Juicy as a Georgia peach
But alas, out of my reach
But I need your cascading waterfall of affection

And I just want to spend some time with you Sanctuary
On a regular basis
And I won’t tell anyone…and I heard you never do

Sanctuary can you call me
Find me
Touch me
I need you in more ways than one
But I just need one
Sanctuary in my life
A place to dwell
Not to yell
But to whisper loudly
Sanctuary…
You’ll be my haven on earth

U Turn

I’m looking at my future

In the rear view mirror

I can’t turn around

And it’s fading away

I want to start over

But you won’t let me

Lets turn this love around

Starting today

FALLEN ANGEL

She whispers I love you with every breath

Spares nothing, gives until nothings left

She’s my fallen angel, sent here on loan

She has a new address; my heart is her home

I will keep her occupied until her time comes

I will commit to her because she is the one

She has committed to me well beyond measure

My fallen angel is my lover, my heart’s treasure

And I could never explain how she arrived

It’s as if I awoke, and she was by my side

From that very first time our eyes locked in a kiss

I felt: heaven must be like this

Or closer than right now

And I am telling you what you should desire

A woman who loves you, ignites your fire

Makes you want to stay awake, never go to sleep

But when you do, she’s the only dream you seek

A fallen angel, a love beyond words

More than I hoped for, better than I deserve

But I will enjoy her, until she is called home

A gift-wrapped lover, the best I’ve ever known

I used to close my eyes and dream every night

For someone like her to come into my life

But when she appeared it was much more than that

More than I imagined, an indisputable fact

But alas her time has come

And she has gone from me

And I am not even angry

For I do believe 

My fallen angel is waiting for me to come

My heart is packed, but my work isn’t done

But as soon as I’m finished, there will be no delay

I can’t wait to see you angel…I’m on my way

I WANT LOVE

 I want love

Deeper than the ocean’s floor

The kind that won’t let you breathe

Until you hear from her

Until you hear from him

Until you hear, we’re still in love today

I traded in oxygen for your breath

Breathing on me

And I learned the alphabet of love

Y O U

Is all is need to know

I want love

The end of the movie kind

Where all the problems are gone

And the only thing left is love

And the kiss, while they roll the credits

Fade to black

Go to bed

Let’s make love ‘til we’re dead

Tired

I want love

The obvious kind

Where you read my mind

And our heats beat in sentences

And we speak fluently with our eyes

And our body’s language is easy to interpret

I want love

Love that makes people in love

Realize they’re not really in love

But maybe lust or a latter version of love

 1.0

We’re version 5.0

With automatic updates

Virus free; and hater protection software

And it’s too big to fit on a flash drive

I want love

The kind that wakes you up

With love on your mind

And your picture taped to my heart

And there is no wrong side of the bed

If you’re in it

I want love

That stands the test of time

The kind leaves you blind

The one that blows your mind

Yes that’s hard to find

Always looking ahead never behind

Woven into a beautiful design

A tapestry of you-n-me

More powerful than we could believe

Oh say can you see

I want love

And that means…

I want you

A FLOWER

She’s a flower yet to be defined

Revealed only to find, she’s one of a kind
Fragrance takes away the blues, grays and things
The power of her scent takes me away

But I can’t share the address
From the soil of love she was planted
Happiness rained down on her
Fertilizing her future growth
And mine too

I never saw her sprout petals of promise
Or stems of strength
Too busy looking for her
Anywhere but the Secret Garden she resided in
Then HE stepped in and said look
It didn’t take but a second and not a second look
I was hooked and now
I’m in love with her too

A gift in the form of a promise
A promise in the form of you
You in the form of love
And love in the form of loving…US

A flower yet to be defined
But until then
This flower is mine

RED LIPS STICK

Her red lips stick in my mind

I can’t escape the thoughts called what if

I can’t run from the fantasy of touch

And I have to embrace the fact I have followed through

To see what the end was like in my move-me

 Her red lips stick in my mind

Stuck on telling temptations of consent

To let them explore my thoughts and my body

And my lips too

A taste awaits the touching of 4 of a kind; two pair

No room to spare conversation

Let lips talk

Tongues mediate and hold on…

I’m translating a range of motion

Range of feelings

A rising confirmation that heat is on high alert

And I’m signed up for the what’s next class

That starts right now

And the only requirement is to study lips

And take test with lips

Do research with lips

Go deep with lips

Until I get my L I Phd

Sealed with a kiss and red seal of satisfaction

I wasn’t trying to write this

 Or even say it out loud

But when I saw her red lips

My ever present bully, lust,

Moved me out of the way and said

Imagine. Now. Do it

As I fell prey to the only weakness

That dominates me; ME

But I am blaming it on her red lips

That stuck in my mind

Stuck on my mind

Because I want to get stuck with hers

Even if it’s only for a moment

Just to put lips and taste together

And see if it equals the satisfaction advertised

When her lips caught my eyes

WHAT IF

I told you stars are overshadowed by you?
Excitement is a fan of yours
Victory roots for you
And I do too

What if I told you?
I made reservations for you
In my heart with 24 hour access
That gets accessed 24 times a day

And what if
You found out
You’re not the center of my universe
You are my universe
And I’m in orbit
Like planet solo
I have rings like Saturn
Called possibilities
Of you and I distant from the world
But closer than a milky way
In the hand of a kid

With sweet love, like berries ripened
From the vine of ready or not
Under the summers sun
Cooled by the evening moon
To taste just right
In our own little world
Spinning on ask this; Tell that
Share drives; Love’s alive
In the eye of lovers
Without a cloud of doubt

What if…if what you just heard
Struck a nerve
And the if turned to you and said
I need to leave…
Goodbye what if?
Go be someone else’s possibility
While I introduce her to definitely

I GOT LOVE FOR YOU

You’ve had my heart from the day we met

And the confirmation I’ll never forget

My heart skipped a beat

And then sped up quick

Then you looked at me

And I became love sick

And I didn’t need a doctor

Because you had the cure

And after you kissed me

I knew for sure

You had my heart

Here’s the lock and key

And you can lock me down

And have your way with me

And you can access my love

From everywhere

Remote control my heart

Let me know when its time to share

I got love for you

Like no one else

I got feelings for you

And I don’t need any help

Expressing how I feel

Meaning what I say

Giving you love

Every Valentines Day

I got love, so much love

And this is the truth

Before Michelle loved Barack

I was already loving you

And no matter what tomorrow brings

I will love you through it all

Our love has only one season

Just combine winter spring summer and fall

I got love for you

Like Romeo and Juliet

Like lovers in the hood with no regrets

Like orange juice and champagne

Its one of a kind

I got love for you

For the rest of my life

I got love for you

 Had it before I was born

Now I know what was stirring in me

Was a love for you, being formed

I got love for you

And you don’t need to doubt

I’d be more worried about freedom

Cause this love has been turned out

My heart is big enough to share

Strong enough to care

Weak enough to hurt

And home of the best love on earth

‘cause I got love for you!

C2009 Wayne Box Miller

I CAN SEE

 I see beauty in the ugliest of places

See fulfillment in the emptiest of spaces

See opportunity to love in darkened thoughts

But I can’t see why love has to be bought

I can see the sunshine in rainy skies

See love’s potential in doubters’ eyes

I can see fullness in empty tanks

But I can’t see shallow in love, I just can’t

So love for real and let the fear subside

Yeah there is pain, but let it ride

And once you’re beyond the initial hurt

You’ll enjoy the love, understand how much its worth

I can see clarity where drama once lived

And I can see hope where no one would give

I can see peace where violence use to be

And I see real love between you and me

So fasten your seatbelt, airbags to breathe

Give me all your love; I’ll give you all of me

And if I hurt or you experience pain

Can we figure it out? Make it a positive gain?

Can we put our scorecards down?

Penalize the flags

Get rid of the referees

Focus on what we have

Close the venue

Keep the spectators out

Leave no room for boos

Make second guessing lose its clout

Yes, I can see a sunrise where dark clouds sat

I can see a sure thing that’s no longer a bet

I can see shade with no leaves on the trees

Because I see real love between you and me 

And I’m not distracted by empty nesters

Those “no return on love” investors

Telling us how to live with Titanic results

Full of buried dreams & hearts full of rust

Now It’s only you and I floating high on clouds

Up, up and away silently talking loud

Professing love and deep commitment

At last; at home, with passion and contentment

And I can see the world we use to call home

I can see us finally alone

And I can see that you are all I need

Because I see the real love between you and me
