Myopic Thoughts

Milky way seen over Cape Schanck

Open minds throb in the open air-

With the vast knowledge of what has begun-

Making the walls breathe

As if these minds were closed.

And The closed minds feel open,

But the light years of space-

 Will always be cornered- 

In what we believe to be infinity.

-Amber of HMWW

A Love Like the Movies

One short film 
That we choose to take part. 
There are breath taking lines 
That come from the heart. 

Two star-crossed lovers 
In the scene of their kiss.
Crave the tender touch
That had been so dearly miss.

Three treasured words
At least once woven in script
It's powerful vow
That keeps the stage lit.

An ongoing flick 
And our hearts are reminded.
And though history made 
The tape is rewinded.

Three treasured words
At least once woven in script
It's powerful vow
That keeps the stage lit.

Two star-crossed lovers 
In the scene of their kiss.
Crave the tender touch
That had been so dearly miss.

One short film 
That we choose to take part. 
There are breath taking lines 
That come from the heart. 

Action.

Love Poem by: Amber 

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!

"Abracadabra" By: Jessie J

The Chaos In Your Chest

There is a war in your chest
The bombs bust, and the guns fire
The barricade mutes the noise
So they only echo as deep thuds.

 And as I hold my hands to your back
With my head on your chest
And my ears kissing your cotton shirt
I can hear it, the war in your chest

I can hear struggle, a constant chaos
And in that thumping I could hear laughter 
A child's laugh, ringing though your ribs
Why would there be laughter in war?

I heard a squeal, a trembling stretch
And the burst and the fizz, of a bomb?
No- I was wrong- Fireworks!
They are fireworks- bursting brightly

And Now that I know, I can see them
Other signs in proof to prove my secret
I see one in my most secret place of safety 
In your eyes, as a fizzling sparkler.

-Amber of HMWW

I Can't Resist You

I can't resist you.

Your charm

Your flawless disguise

That covers the lies you hide.

The lies my yearning heart desire.

I want to know.

I want to know what are you hiding from me.

What is it?

What is it this aura of yours?

Why do I become uneasy?

...

Maybe I'll never know...

My Love

My love is not the red, red rose,
or darling buds of may.
My love is not a sweet, sweet song,
or a tempting summer's day.

My love is not a silly, silly girl,
with whom you toy and play.
My love is not a finite object
that will simply fade away.

My love is like the oceans deep,
passionate and never ending as the sea.
My love is like the river's flowing,
faithful and everlasting my love shall be.

First Kiss

You feel their embrace, holding you away from the world and 

blocking everything away

You're locked into their gaze you try to free you're eyes but all you 

do is stare deeper into theirs

They run their thumb across your cheek and end on your lips

You try to break the silence but only air forms

They wrap your arms around your waist    

You run your fingers into their hair and push closer

Finally after a moment you bite your lip

They slowly lean in close and tantalize you with your first kiss

You close your eyes and pray that you special moment never ends

Fleeting Beauty Sonnet

Her crystal eyes were like baby blue birds
Her golden curls untouched by sharpened shears

Under the willow tree in groups of thirds

Children whisper dreams in curious ears.

Her lean body glowed with peach complexion.

She stared into the eyes of her lover.

She had longed for virtuous affection

Finally true, she saw he would love her.

She was watching her now, her young child.

She then looked to her husband- in his trance.

She watched his hands and craved his touch so mil’d.

She longed to be fit for a final dance.

The old, frail woman looked to her husband.

She craved his stare- he only gave a glance

He saw her grief then asked for her hand

He warned her kindly of life's final chance

Though velvet skin decays and plump lips crust

Your soul's beauty fuels my eternal lust.

I know it has an extra stanza in it for a sonnet, but oh well; I got excited. ;) Happy Valentines Day everyone! 
-Iris

There Is You

In sounds in which words cannot speak

And in feelings in which hands cannot touch

There Is You

In peace in which the dead cannot rest

And in beauty in which the sky cannot grace

There Is You

In times in which the words will speak

And the hands will touch

And the dead will rest

And the sky will grace

There Is You

And You Only

Poem by: Courtney 

I hope everyone has an awesome Valentines day! Eat chocolate and be happy! Remember that true love is also found in Friends and family not just a a significant other. Remember that. ;)

Happy Writing,

-Courtney

We Are One

The warm, gentle touch of you against me whole, dissolves my body deep
inside of yours.
Unchain your heart and freely gleam the light of love.
Open the doors for affair and lust, illuminate your soul.
As we become one together our memories will be treasured forever
Pure tender essence, lost in the night sky of your eyes that sparkle like
twilight stars from a distance, feel the passion stroke your cheek kindly.
The synchronized ecstasy binds your soul tightly closer to mine, flooding
my mind with joyful scrutiny.
In an instant our chemistry sparks.
The static, so exotic, burns through your smooth skin because it can no
longer keep in the flames of elation.
Your caress draws my heart to a pause, overwhelmed... it skips a pulse.
red forever.

True Love In The Making

I stare at your imperfections because to me, they are flawless.
Everything in which you hate about yourself is at fault for me falling in  love.
Thereof, it is as if I had emerged among ragged weeds desperate for growth.
I took an oath to provide you with everything I don't have because you are exactly what I need. 
Beneath the dirt, a blossoming seed, feeding off of your rain.
Our meeting was preordained, we were meant to cross paths.
Now we walk hand in hand hoping that forever does last.

Hand In Yours

I hold my hand in yours

In hopes you'll never let it go,

You'll never let me fall, 

For I'll always know,deep within my heart, you are the one.

I'll love you for forever, and more than that, for you deserve it. 

If you lay, I'll lay with you, safe in your arms, stealing your warmth on a cold winter's night. 

Just you and I remembering what we are, and thinking about what we will be.

You and I, me and you, were the greatest team of two, our love is strong, like a heavey stone wall, one that can't be broken, even if someone tried.

And here we are, hand in hand, where I hold my hand in yours

Hoping you'll never let me go…

"My Beautiful Rescue" By: This Providence

The Kiss

The ticking of the second hand
No longer can be heard
Time is almost standing still
Sharpening every word

Every breath inhaled
Brings across a sweetened scent
I sit there with my gaze averted
But we both know that's pretend

My pulse has picked up speed
Heart beating out my chest
My breath has increased quickly
At your beauty, so picturesque

Thankfully I am seated
For I have lost the strength to stand
I watch you walk towards me
And gently graze your nails across my hand

At your whisper of a touch
Every hair stands up on end
My mind now empty, my body numb
Your power over me I can't comprehend

You have caused me to lose control
Of every part of me that I could claim
I struggle to understand
How you're able to keep me detained

I can not move my body
You have frozen me in place
Future thoughts I can't predict
Past memories you managed to erase

Another touch across my flesh
And you send me into a dream
My head is spinning, my vision blurred
How my skin just wants to scream

Your carelessly stand against the wall
A short distance away from me
You keep your eyes locked on mine
And watch me intriguingly

Your hair is gracefully flowing
Across your shoulders and down your back
And your ruby lips curl upwards
Your smile emotions does not lack

Your eyes so deep and hypnotic
They send me into a trance
But when you finally disconnect your gaze
I rush to take my chance

Within moments I am out of my chair
And standing in front of you
So close my breath is on your throat
Now will be our debut

My right hand weaves into your hair
My left pressed against your hips
I look you deep into your eyes
I am less than inches away from your lips

Your ruby lips are slightly parted
As my lips graze against your own
Now it's you whose breaths increased
You let out a subtle moan

I glide my lips towards your neck
With my hands I tighten my grasp
I whisper sweetly into your ear
As I make this memory last

I feel your shiver under my touch
Turns out that talent is mine as well
I feel your heartbeat increase
Feeling are starting to overwhelm

Your grasp surrounds me quickly
I am trapped in your embrace
But I'm not planning on going anywhere
In my arms you are incased

I keep you close and kiss you deeply
And with that simple touch
Our mind and souls join as one
Something we both crave so much

Dark and light intertwined
Night and day but a blur
Within that single, deepened kiss
Our entire worlds have turned

Dark and light together
Woven like DNA
Another kiss from your ruby lips
From my arms don't ever stray

"Casualty Of Love" Acoustic By: Jessie J

Sweet and Slow

 Photo From: The Make Believe Sea

When I see you around
I hope that you know
That you were the first sad song I wrote
Your kiss is woven in my notes
The whisper of your voice becomes my melody
I tried so hard to keep you happy with me
When I think on our shared history
With tears in my eyes
I'll smile so you can see
How little my broken heart has broken me
And while you move on
I'll stop holding on
The fire that burns through my heart was there from the start
Sweet and slow
Now that you're free
I hope you know who you'll be
I'll smile as you go
Because I already know
My love for you will always burn
Sweet and slow
