If You Knew My Girl

If you knew my girl
you’d never have to
fake a smile.

If you heard her speak
you’d swear she was singing
a hymn.

If you watched
her dance you’d forget
to blink.

Just reading a poem
about her might make
you swoon.

If you knew my girl
you would fall and
never land.

I still can’t land

Warm Chills (Song Lyrics)

[Verse 1]
I get so cold
When you don’t leave on the light, babe
I get so cold
When you do not say good night, babe

You’re only right
Cause you can’t admit you’re wrong, babe
We only fight
Cause of sexual frustration

[Pre-Chorus]
Warm me up, warm me up
Warm me up right now
I’ll warm you up, I’ll warm you up
I’ll warm you up somehow

[Chorus]
Don’t need these cold chills
Every day that you are away
Don’t need these cold chills
But I felt them hard yesterday

I want some warm chills
Heat me, pour me in your rain
I want some warm chills
Lay me down and walk over me, babe
I need those warm chills
Right now and every single day
I need those warms chills
You’re the only one who gives them, babe

[Verse 2]
I get so cold
When you do not show your face, babe
I get so cold
When you tell me that you’re sleeping

I get so cold, I get so cold
When I’m alone, when I’m alone

[Pre-Chorus]
Warm me up, warm me up
Warm me up right now
I’ll warm you up, I’ll warm you up
I’ll warm you up somehow

[Chorus]
Don’t need these cold chills
Every day that you are away
Don’t need these cold chills
But I felt them hard yesterday

I want some warm chills
Heat me, pour me in your rain
I want some warm chills
Lay me down and walk over me, babe
I need those warm chills
Right now and every single day
I need those warms chills
You’re the only one who gives them, babe

[Ad Lib]
You’re the only one who gives them, babe
The only one who gives that way
The only one …
The only one that makes me stay

Imagine

Can you imagine
holding the world
in your hands?

Can you really?

Then imagine it now
the world                  in the palm of your hands
spinning on its axis.

I want you to imagine it.

Close your eyes.

Think on it.

Block out     everything else.

Focus. Focus. Focus.

Don’t read on until
You found it—feel it.

Now that you’re there:
You know how
I feel every time
I hold her.

The Universe Wants An Us

It’s not you or me, really
It’s the stars, the poles
of magnets, the hands
of the gods, the three Sisters of Fate

Well, sometimes it’s only you
And, sometimes it’s only me

But also, the tides of love, the gravitational
pull of celestial spheres, chemistry and chemicals,
hormones and synapses, butterflies and that winged boy with arrows,
pen and paper, tea leaves and tarot cards, and
social influencers, bloggers, rebels, dreamers, lovers

See, really, it’s not up to you or me

Because if the universe wants an us
Who are we to go against the universe?
