The Night Trains

The Night Trains

Meet me
At
Midnight
And
Hop the
Pay stalls
All night
Rides
For free

Discussing
Life
Or
Future
Desires
All
The while
Drinking
Wine
In
Paper cups

The stars
Map
The night
Of the
Train's
Every
Direction

Holding
Hands
Sharing
A seat
Looking
Out
Windows
At the
Cold
Morning
With the
Sun
Rising

And with the
Last stop
It's time
To head
Home
Home to
Warm sheets
And
Warmer bodies

Sleeping
Safe and
Sound
Dreaming of
You and
Riding
The
Night trains

Waking Up

Waking Up

And
I'm laying
In
Bed
Next to you
Early
In the
Morning

Catching
The final
Moments
Before
You
Awake

Your
Eyes opening
Meeting mine
For the
First time
Today

Good morning
Cutie

The Directly Adjusted Path

The Directly Adjusted Path

Or as if
There's a
Specific
Path
I'm supposed
To walk
Or follow
It's not
With you

An adjustment
Or routine
Change
That could
Change
Forever
Me
Or just
You

But hold
On
Or slowly
Let it
Slip through
The cracks
Of your
Finger tips

Because
Whatever
You planned
It's
Likely
Not plausible
At least

Not now

Map To Her Heart

Map To Her Heart

And
Deep inside
Hidden
There's
A map
Of a
Particular
Path

Unlike
Other paths
Taking
The road
Not traveled
By many
If any
At all

Treacherous
Dangerous
Or at least
Rough the
Travels
That lay
Ahead

But
If followed
Correctly:
Each step
Each turn
Each mile
With
Each
Feeling

You'll
Safely
Arrive
At the
Final
Destination

Her Heart

No Love At Weddings

No Love At Weddings

The closest
You’ll
She’ll
Let you
Get to her

Is at a wedding
One seat
Over

No hands to
Hold
No vows
To exchange
No rings
To wear

What you’re
Witnessing
What’s happening
Should happen

You
And
Her

But sitting
Here
Next to her

Is the closest
You’ll
Ever get

Stupid Little Things

Stupid Little Things

And I
Remember
All the
Stupid little
Things

Like the
Day
I first
Kissed
You
Or surprised
You
With roses

When we
First
Met
I played it
Cool
Even though
I thought
You were pretty

And our
First date
A total
Disaster
It was

But what
I remember
Most
Most importantly
Was
The first time
I confessed
Admitted
I liked
Loved
You

And I guess
After
All
These
Stupid
Little
Things
Aren't so
Stupid

But they
Are the
Little
Big
Things
That changed
My life

Modern Love

Modern Love

While
The looks
Look good
Out with
Friends
Saturday night
Casually
V-neck, jeans
While the
Lady
Styles
Cocktail dress

A drink
Hers
Sophisticated
But clean
While beer(s)
Strictly
Accompany my hand

No jazz
But Jukebox
Songs
Soundtrack
The evening

Other times
Dinner
N' movie
Previews
The favorite part

Modern
Life
Or love
That carries
Us through
Days

Or just
Into bed
To not sleep
Hours
Nights
Up talking
Until the
Morning sun
Rises

Early morning
Coffee and
Tea

By
My side
Arm
Around shoulder
Hand in
Hand

Modern
The life
Or just
Modern Love

Secret Notes

Secret Notes

A note
To give
You
In between
Things
And
Hands
A secret
Secret

Inscribed
Detailed
And
Decorated
Inside
Delicately
Crafted

Thoughtful
Cunning
Sexy
Or just
Simple

In
The end
Circle
"Yes" or "No"
Because
I like
You

Answer
And
Return
To sender
Carefully
Secretly
And

As I
Hope
I hope
That
You Circled
"Yes"

Tessellate

Tessellate

And like
Two pieces
Form
Corners
Sides
A Puzzle
Fit perfectly
Together

On weekends
Weekdays
Nights
And mornings
Fit snug

Triangles
Most likely
But not
Octagons

And on
Any perfect
Time
When timing
Is nice

Two hands
Form
Holding
Each other

True Life

True Life

Well
I admit
Or at least
Confess
To say
I have this
Crush
On you

Cute and
Pretty
Soft
And sweet
Since the
First day
We would
Meet

And you
I like
Mostly
Yes
Yes
I do
I like you

So I
Admit
Confess
To say
I like you
Today
