Saved

It couldn't have happened better, the pieces came together perfectly.

and my road seems even clearer than before. Sometimes it takes major events to clarify your vision. To be able to see past all the bull shit and concentrate on what is important. But lies always will run their course and the truth revealed.

This time is definitely a closing of a chapter in my life. My college days, San Diego, and my bad ass apartment, love, a douche bag and truth to make any pain go away. I'd hate to put an end to it but if you don't change, change will one day find you. Even then I think this change just happened when it was suppose to, New job, new place, new (well sorta) life. I'm looking forward to being around my family again. :) I've missed them but in that time I've spent alone I also realized new things.

I was saved when I didn't even know it. :)

One Day at a Time

I remember what you wore the first time we met

I remember how you smelled on the first day we spent

I remember how you smiled for no reason at all and how it knocked down the bricks that had built up my walls

You were everything I never knew I wanted

See, I finally got it and I stopped looking for it

Love, we explored it together for the first and last time

Nowadays I can’t even call my heart mine

It’s yours. You seeped into each of my pores

You invaded my essence, soft sweet caresses

Looked past my bullshit to see my intentions

No fronts, no lines, no lies, no time

Just us, eternity

Nowhere else to go to

I fell in love with you and then I had to get to know you

Those beginning stages of stories and places

Of people and lessons beyond first impressions

Our first kiss was natural

I didn’t think about it, it happened before I realized the place was crowded

And still I didn’t doubt it, it felt so right

One moment can change your whole life

I went home we talked on the phone till we both fell asleep

Just knowing you were there is what allowed me the peace

See, when you’re not around its hard for me to get through

I know that you're safe because I’m there to protect you

You saved me from me

I know that's hard for you to see

But you did, you allowed me to live

So I mapped out your body from the curve of your hips

To the nape of your neck and the shape of your breasts

And we had sex...I mean we made love...I mean we had sex, made love, and sometimes we straight fucked

And either way afterwards I would stay there

Inside of you panting as we laid there

You moved in, it was where your time was spent,

So we saved some money and went half on the rent

Then you met mom, now you two are like Siamese

Secretly I think she likes you a little more than me

But that's cool, I like you more than me too

If I died I would ask God to let me live inside of you

See I’m a private guy

Most people need a private eye to get the picture

And that's why I picked her

But why she picked me

Will forever be a mystery

That's our connection

I call you perfection

We don’t have as much to say as we used to

But I can read her mind

It’s just something I’m used to

Try six years

After the butterflies have cocooned

And the cows have jumped over the moon

Try that.

Are you still as in love?

Not in the same way

But I can feel it growing deeper each and every day

That's why I pray for her before I think to pray for me

Her happiness in this, it means everything to me

She’s everything to me

My favorite sound is hearing her keys unlocking the door

Her feet on the floor or the crank of the planks

Cause I can’t fall asleep till I’ve seen her face

And I’m sure she’s safe

It’s trust and its faith

And its lust and commitment

Because a marriage license ain’t shit if you don’t stick with it

You might as well rip it up

You might as well wait a while

Shit, I’m sure I’m sure and I’m still gonna wait a while

I wait until you're asleep

Then I whisper in your ear

I tell you everything you never knew you’d wanna hear

Your beautiful, the best person that I’ve ever known

There's no way I could do justice in one poem

There's no way I could do justice in one life

I’ll have to come back so I can worship you twice

I’ll have to come back so I can be your wife

So I can have your child to recreate your smile

I wanna clone you cause you're that selfless

But I’m too selfish to feel that helpless

I need you

Loves so hard to describe

You're the first girl I’ve let inside

And although others have tried

They couldn’t survive the Gemini’s five sides

The laughs and the cries and the falls and the rise

I wanna grow old together in a villa up in Italy

Literally

A balcony vineyard view

I wanna see our kids’ kids have kids

And I wanna spoil them as much as I do you

Cause you're my best friend

I swear to God you're the pinnacle

Before we met I was half an individual

Now I’m on the path of divine design

How do you love love?

One day at a time
