Under The Street Light....

I traveled from place to place a friendly smile that you all love to have around. We sit and talk for hours til the burning candles smoked. I'd tell you stories of people that have come to my world and you'd do the same. We touch on past memories of a story we both shared. I tell you how my heart is still standing at the under the street light where we said goodbye to forever. You just slightly turn your head to the side nervously. I tell you it's okay I never liked that part of me jokingly. You tell me your heart still goes back to the street light and cries. You look at me eye tearing up as you tell me your sorry for what happened. My heart jumps back in my chest as I tell you it's okay beautiful. This is the way life works we are but explosions in the sky though we may bring beauty to a world we are bound to destroy some things in our way. I give you a hug a whisper, "my love for you is just as strong as the day we said good. When the smokes settles I hope it's you standing at the end of the isle." she wipes her tears tells me she loves me as she gets up to leave. We both know that our lives are not ready for each other as we walk away waving goodbye....both knowing we will find each other again....

The River Is Flowing With Your Lies

We traveled a path of disbelief an unwanted truths. We said we make it through. Our promises dangled like icecicles slowly melting. Lies are born in minds with weak ties and hearts are broken by devils with devious smiles. On the tables sits a memory that has now faded from our lives.

You said you had the safety on yet this bullet went through me and the gun is still smoking. You said.... You said....

I laid there beside you as you were slowly planning our demise while I was thanking the Lord for the blessing of you. We fought, we screamed and we broke sentimental things. For what it's worth I always loved you, I always believed we could create what they never believed in.

You said that life without me was never living yet there you are within his arms. Sharing gifts with a smile and I am still standing where you said we'd meet. You said... You said...

This river is flowing with your lies and the fish have all died....

One Moment That Is Forever Ours

Outside the rain is pounding against the windows bringing sound to the nights silence. The cold air within the house has me and you snuggled up together lovers lost together. I look into your eyes accepting my fate as the one who will be yours. We share soft hello kisses as you tell me, "Hello babe." I reply, "Hello beautiful." In this moment we have found our paths intertwined with hearts full of love and hope. I take your hand within mine and as our fingers lock with the perfect grasp, I lean closer and taste your lips again. You smile at me as I quickly lick your teeth, you giggle and tell me to stop. I smile and kiss you one more time. I slide behind you and you cuddle up against me as we start to watch the first movie in our movie marathon. We talk, laugh, and take in every bit of this day. As your eyes close I find my self moving your hair out of your face slowly etching every bit of you to memory in this moment. This day will forever be apart of me just as I hope that you will be. Your eyes open to me as you ask, "What you doing baby?" all I can say is, "I am admiring this blessing that is you baby." You smile pull me to you and tell me to sleep with you. We share a good night kiss as our dreams take us away....

I Will Enjoy My Simple Life With A Smile

I put the key in the door unlock it and as I walk in my world again emotions overwhelm me. This house we have built with our family in mind. I hang my coat on our coat holder as I remember when we bought it you were 8 months pregnant with our first child, Kiana. I still remember rubbing your belly and singing songs to her as I patiently waited for her arrival. Now she is 3 years old full of life and the joy she will bring the world is nothing I have ever witnessed. As I walk down the hall I hear music playing from the kitchen an old Michael Buble song. I smile because every day you cooked you loved to have music playing for you as you sang and put love into your cooking. Now this has become a sight I try to always be around for. Seeing your smile as you cook lights up my world. The way you sing like a bird is a true delight to my ears, but what I have come to love the most is how you dance and perform a song like you were live in concert for 10,000 fans. These moments are truly classic to me and I would never want to be any where in the world but right here with you. Your hair tied up with your favorite cooking apron on is the perfect portrait of beauty to this simple man. I simply say, "Hello Beautiful!" as we shared a small delicate kiss. I look over to see our growing daughter drawing in her new color book with the biggest smile on her face. I give you a hug and kiss your cheek as you ask, "What's wrong babe?" I smile and simply reply, "Baby I love you and what we have made, what we have, what our future holds together." I sit back as I watch my world march to the beat of its own drum and here I am happy. A loving home filled with a beautiful wife an amazing daughter and a hope for this simple world to grow with out any complications. Though I know there will be many new factors, for now I will enjoy my simple life with a smile.....

Someday You Will Be Loved

She laid silent on a bed soaked in tears of misery, breathing air as stale as past broken promises and with less hope for a future beyond the world she once knew. Her eyes now a distant stare as she looked at old memories of a relationship captured in pictures of a happiness she once knew. She hears a whisper on the wind soft and sweet someday you will be loved...
He sits at the bar slowly sipping on his jack and coke more jack then coke. Carrying his heavy heart as the world around him is full swing laughter, smiles and friends. With every sip and inhale of his bad habit that he would wish would take him from this life. Slowly taking another hit off his cigarette the flashbacks of is day rattle him like an emotional tidal wave. He went to work as any other day kissing his wife of two years he smiled as he said, "goodbye love of my life." He came home early to surprise the woman, her favorite flowers in hand and a love in his heart as he opened the door. He yelled, "Oh beautiful I'm home..." and turned to find her kissing another man before he ran out the back door. The rest was a blur as he jumped back to his new reality in this bar alone burying his dead heart with jack and coke. He looks down and on the napkin he reads "Someday You Will Be Loved." Though hopeless he felt he still thought one day....
She smiled crowded by friends who told her everything will be okay. She looked of strength though her mind and heart felt pain that she had never had to endure. Her friends fed her hope of more fish in the sea and it only gets better yet she'd lost something that had become so significant in her life the man she loved the life she believed was meant to be. Slowly she began to stop listening to them and hear the music her one true way to escape her current world and these words reached her ears and then touched her heart. The radio sang, "You'll be loved, you'll be loved like you have never have known and the memories of me will seem more like bad dreams just a series of blurs like I never occurred and someday you will be loved and someday you will be loved...." With these words she realized that she has found hope....

The Last Tear...

She woke up tears in her eyes and the sun shining through the curtains. Her heart felt heavy and soul felt as if it was laying on its death bed. As far as she knew this would be her last time for love...for life.... Her mind swept through her memories. How his touch could give her energy she has never felt, how his kiss would bring her to her knees and how just one look from him would bring joy to hear soul. As her mind continued to take her to all those fond memories she came to the reason she is alone in her bed. How he lied of his indiscretions, how he would spend hours within some other woman's arms, how he would kiss her after leaving the other woman. Her Heart instantly went from pain and agony as she gripped the bed sheets to anger and within the anger she found strength. She sat up wiped her tears, caught her breathe and thought to her self this is the last tear I will shed for that man. Her eyes focused as she looked to the curtain smiling, she is over being his weeping willow. Today this is and will be about her life, her tears will be shed for joy and he will no longer hold her heart a prisoner. She exhaled as her mind raced with the new things she will accomplish as she broke the chains that held her hostage to this bed. No more sad movies in black and white, no more past regrets and no more sadness. Her heart will stand on top of the world and smile, her soul will become the survivor that he will miss and her mind will freely explore this brand new world she is apart of! She stood up and walked towards the window personifying her will to overcome the pain she felt. She opened her curtains, let the sun in and with this simple event it was the beginning of her new start in life. She has found the will, the strength to live on and become better then she has been....this is her life....Her arms stretched out holding the curtains looking out beyond her room....she simply smiles and says, "Hello World I'm coming..."

Good Morning Kisses

She woke up to me playing my guitar filling the air with thoughts of love and and past glorious times. She came up behind me wrapped her arms around me and kissed me one of those soft tender good morning kisses. The type of kiss you savior every time you get one. She listened to me play as she hopped over the chair and sat next to me. I sing to her good morning an she tells me of how she woke up and heard me playing and how she smiled to herself. It always surprises me how life gives me the perfect moments to hold on to. So I led her into the kitchen slowly playing her fave song. "Oye mami, ben aqui! come eat a lil breakfast with me. I've cooked for you and may our mornings be spent like this for many more to come!" She smiled and giggled bout how goofy my songs were. She said, "Papi I'd spend these mornings like this only if you make up a new song every morning!" I simply smile lean in and taste those beautiful soft lips again! How I have come to love her good morning kisses. We sit down and eat. I take in every moment that we share and store it into my memory like all the pictures of us up on the walls captured moments of happiness scattered in our new home. As we taste our last bite of food I lean over move her hair out of the way smile and give her one more soft good morning kiss nice and slow. My lips smile a bit within our kiss and I look into her eyes. I decide with out a second guess I will make up a new song every morning and we will spend every morning just like this.....

It begins...

I stood outside the airport looking out into a world that I have never known. The air carried a crisp cool breeze my hands a bit sweaty as I stand there nervous. She drives up into the arrivals her eyes searching and breathe a bit shallow as she looks for him. This is the first time she has been so excited and so wreckless at the same time! She sees me and her heart jumps in her chest like a fluttery hummingbird. She breathes slow tries to catch her breathe before she pulls up to him. He know she is coming he jus talked to her. He is smiling jus ready to meet her for the first time. She stands outside her car he catches her eyes and she says the first, "Hello there, Travis!?" I smile a bit lost in her beauty and replies, "Well today is a good day!" and with those words she knows. She pops the hood and while he loads his luggage in the back she looks through the back mirror talking to herself, "stay calm, wow my heart is jittery, calm he is gorgeous!" As I approach the passenger side and I think, "Whoa that is some kind of amazing!" I opens the door looks to her as she looks back, "Hey beautiful." His eyes seem to look into her soul like no one has ever even tried. Her heart quivers a bit. She simple replies, "Hey you, lets get this show on the road." She turns the music down jus a tad and looks over to see him looking out through the windows in complete fascination of this world around him but he turns to look at her and his first words are, "How are you?" She blinks thinking for a minute she felt as if no one had ever asked her about herself and meant it. He looks to her she feels him touching her soul. She can only come up with, "I'm Good!" Though her soul wanted to leap for joy and scream to the world, "Oh yay Its my birthdaaaaaay!" while dancing all her best dance moves! She smiles thinking of this. He tells her his glad to hear it and speaks of how happy he is. His heart racing wanting to hold her hand possible share a soft passionate kiss. I see her reaching to adjust the radio station and I reach out and take hold of her hand look at her and says, "This is fine babe." She feels her heart feeling all types of joy cause he didn't let go of her hand. She repeats in her head, "his hand feels so nice" Our hands speak volumes of how young love can grow from such a simple touch. How the words of a heart can't truly express how amazing it feels as we hold hands. In that moment their hearts are in sync like the perfect chords playing their first song together. He watches her drive taking in every bit of her and adding her to his memory. How her hair drapes along her face. How her eyes are look of such beauty, innocent yet her soul mature. Her lips look of soft joy. The touch of her skins engulfs me with a pure smile something I have never felt. Its so amazing how she can bring adjectives to life for him. I have never known someone who could bring so many words to life. Here in this car on this drive the beginning of his journey in his wild life and its here I find the perfect place for my soul....Here with her...I smile ready for the journey....and so it begins...
