Johnny Storm

Here I lay


Cold

When normally

I am bursting star

Radiating heat

For miles

Take down

In the prime of my life

My jubilant personality

Always smiling

Cocky

Able to burn my way through any wall

But not this time

Today the flame is now

Just slow puffs of smoke

Extinguished

Headed into darkness

Love on Thin Ice

You would think


After so many times

I would’ve learned

Stupid me

You will never change

Shutting me out

Going into your shell

Making me pay for what the other men did to you

They ran over you

But I’m the one you want to stand up to?

All I do is try to love you

How can I?

When you cut me off at every pass?

Recognize

I’m a good man

And I’m about to walk out of your life

I can’t continue

To skate on thin ice

Domestic

The words she spews at me
Are like
Battery acid
In my fresh emotional wounds
Telling me she could be with anyone
While I know that no one is better than her
Treating me like I’m nothing
Me giving everything
And you taking my heart
Chewing it up
Spitting it out
Then tap dancing on it
With 6 inch spiked heels
You’re ice cold baby
But not cool
I can’t stay away from you
I feel like such a fool
Hurt but not hurt enough to leave
Still
I’m prepared to give you my all
I just need a glimmer of hope
Waiting for your call

Sounds of Love

Moaning
Heavy breathing

Groans



Some of the things I hear

When you and I

Are intertwined



All day I’ve been thinking of



My tongue running down your spine



Leaving no area of your body untouched



You give me such a rush



I get off from getting you off

Unselfish lover



I like it when I am

Getting a lay of the land

In the neither region

You grab the sheets

Pull back

Trying to escape

As I grip my strong hands

Around your thighs

Five toes press into my back

The other five are on the wall

Out of my peripheral vision

I notice your pedicure

The color clashes well with your skin tone



Love juices squirt out onto my face

Only makes me dive back into the pool for more



Call me greedy



You got that good stuff

That all the guys want

But I am determined to make you mine

Fiend for you



Or should I say I’m needy……….



I’m not done with you yet

No baby we’re far from through

I have more epic ecstasy in store for you

In part two

Good Ole Days

We used to play outside


Till the street lights came on

Walked home from school together

The old folks taught us

Watched out for you

When your parents were at work

Grandparents helping out your parents

Fathers being more than just a pay check

And only showing up once or twice a year

Mothers would rather stay at home

Than club hop

We had respect for life

Less baby momma’s

And more wives

Less deadbeats

More real men

Less guns

If we had to take it to that level

It was a scrap in the streets

The point is win or lose

You walked away

Fair ones they called them

I wish we could relive those days

But as bad as times are now

We will one day look back on these times

As the good ole days

All Is Fair In Love

All is fair in love

The special someone they go right above

Everything that you’ve ever known

From a person

Matters of the heart

Your breath is stolen

When you lay eyes on this work of art

But on day

Its over

And you once mighty heart

Is broken into pieces

Served to strangers a la carte

Light used to shine bright

But now just flickering

The lovely evenings you used to have

Turn into long nights of bickering

How long can we continue like this?

I know longer want us

Deciding what I will and won’t put up with anymore

Walking away from you

To keep myself

Beautiful Disaster

Thoughts are poetic
The tragic comedy
Death of the clown
You can’t help but
Laugh
Even when you see the finally tear
Come out of his eyes
As the realization
That this is it
Knowing things would have to come to an end
But not like this
Never crossed the plains of his imagination
Laying here
Unable to move
Alone
Badly injured
Wounds not soothed
Think next time
You have too many drinks
And decide to get behind the wheel
You may be saving my life

Madoff

Madoff
 
Think of him
As a thief
That one that makes you
Smile during the day light
And cry in the darkness of night
The passion from loving them
Is only surpassed by the passion you have for fight
Stealing of the heart
Making slash marks
In this beautiful work of art
He destroyed you
The pieces have still not been pieced together
Let me part those clouds
Here comes the sunlight

Pressure

Sometimes I want to cry


But then I remember how prideful I am

How I can never let them see me sweat

Never let them know

How they’ve affected me

No not me

Strong face

YOU CAN’T BREAK ME!!

I’M STILL STANDING!!

But for how long?

Even know

I feel like I am breaking into pieces

I will not lose to it

I won’t let this happen

In the pressure cooker of life

But I refuse to sweat

Today Feels Like The Past

I look in the rearview


It seems like I’ve gotten far

But objects in the mirror are closer than they appear

Strive forward

Swimming up stream

My past keeps coming back to haunt me

Though much change has been made

What can I say?

Just keep going

Never giving up

Even though at times

I want to scream

I’VE HAD ENOUGH!

But no

I must keep going

Can’t go back to the man I was

Though I appreciate the lessons it taught me

I’ve graduated

Letter To My Wife

The other day


I wrote a letter to my wife

Saying

How much I love her

Can't wait to see her

Sit for hours talking about nothing in particular

But I have yet to actually meet her

That's the thing

I'll give this to her once she comes along

My soul mate

My best friend

Campion for life

My wife

My confidant

The one I have the most affinity for

Beauty personified

Bow down to the one and only queen

I love you baby

See you soon

Mr. Nobody

 Diffident with offering you compliments


Spur of the moment

Public displays of affection

Are not for timid ones like me

Unconfident

Unsure

And wary

I won’t feel any rejection being just another face in the crowd

Though the mere thought of having you on my side makes me proud
