You make me...

You make me laugh when I want to cry,

Make me live when I want to die,

Make me smile when I want to frown,

You turn my life upside down.

Believe in me when no one else does

You’re my now, my is, my was.

When you call my name I begin to blush,

I'm afraid people notice I need you so much.

When I'm with you time flies by fast.

It's like the present is the past.

I need you more than you can believe,

Love you more than you can conceive.

Think about you every night and day

And hope my life can stay this way

I don't want it to be any other way.

My heart; an Autumn

My heart, an Autumn

endlessly falling-

a strange season by itself 

yet blossoming like no other.

For it falls with the softest breeze

your gentle winter

blows upon me.

Each move you make

chills my skin,

freezes my feet

almost steals a beat

out of me.

Just for me to ripen again 

like half a spring, within 

the few seconds it takes you

to breathe, deeply 'neath 

my senses- then I with seconds 

passing ahead of me,

I fall right again before you

...for you.

And though your presence

makes me shine like a 

summer's sun, but being

your Autumn became 

an addiction-that I

can't let go of

for the sake of its 

new meaning,

radiant colors, for its

novel symbols.

Falling forevermore;

flourishing even-more.
