Everything I can't seem to say...

Where should I start?

I miss you, or I miss who you used to be, or I miss what could have been.
How's life? Are you having fun? Tell me about everything you've seen, everything you've done, everywhere you've been.
Do you get homesick? Do you miss your friends? Your family? Me?
Why don't we talk? Who should make the first move? Why are we so stubborn?
I miss the conversations we used to have. The ones where I looked into your eyes and watched your mouth move. The ones where I told you everything.
Your forgetful, controlling, awful. But I could look past all of that if you told me I was important to you.
Let's play the Blame Game, Nevermind we'll both lose.
Let's be children, I'll kick, you scream, throw tantrums on the floor.
Let's be lovers, kiss & tell, hold each other till we don't exist.
Pick a moment, ask the question, I'll say I love you, or I hate you.
My heart aches, or I feel nothing. Everyday you cross my mind, or I forget about you completely.
Would you like me to make it easy? You know I'd do anything for you.
Even now, even with the hatred and the bitterness, I'd still do anything for you...

One More Night (One Night Stand Series: Part II)

Disclaimer: This is not my poem, it's a part of a series from a collaboration with my fav cousin! Working on part three now!

How was it wrong? because now you feel right.
The nectar of your tongue, on that flower of a night.
My Expectations, Stipulations, Reservations, our Altercations
I surrendered to the dark side of my mind.
My Heart like Jericho, and you One Joshua
Marched with power and overtook my standards
NO pause, NO stop, and the compromise came... As did I.
And in that small moment
The lies in your eyes became truth,
And the touch of your skin, stopped me from seeing through you
This has to be wrong, but you feel so right,
let me stay just one more night.
