Blush

To tell you how I feel, you would blush

you would run as your feet start to rush

so I let feelings sleep, meet them in dreams

where they can be free like sunbeams

Don't allow the dreams to sway me, they would betray

the emotions within, not to see the light of day

just between me, the stars, moon and sky

silently floating into the air, where only I see them fly

But if I was to let you hear my thoughts, let you see

if I was to open my heart, let the words flow free

they would sing, of how you make me whole

you give me a smile, that lifts my soul

You kiss me with words that flow from your lips

eyes pierce my heart with arrows, and the beat skips

when you put me down, its like I've been killed and no one mourns

if you hurt, I feel every sting like I'm being pulled through thorns

When fear preys on my mind, you are like a ray of brightness

a guide in the dark against the demons of unkindness

when I am alone my thoughts speed, as my pen bleeds

I hear my screams, when I am with you they recede

So in dreams they sing, their song laid bare

these thoughts, feelings that forever live there

every night, in the sleep that takes me away, on a flight

to a world of words, that I can never recite

Thanks for reading,

Peace & Love,

Kyle.

 

Hear your name

Hear your name whispered, sings a song of belonging
beneath the gaze of this old tree, longing
the breeze carried my wish, could it touch your ears
and hold us together for all the years

Hear your name in the pouring of rain, it sings a loving refrain
high above the towns below, dreams unchained
the waters carried my hopes, could it reach your lips
before my heart gives way and rips

Hear your name rolling in with the tides, and my fears subside
here on this empty beach, to the sands I confide
if the ground could speak, it would sing of all my wishes
of the promise I bring to you, all my love and kisses

Hear your name in the call of birds, singing of romantic worlds
here in this house, my home, I write the words
when you hear their song, do they speak my name
and does the song set your heart aflame

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Wish

Wasted years getting here, letting fears produce tears
made a wish, as grey clears, a day with you standing near
could you fulfil my request, I'm stressed I confess
need you here, free me from this lonely house arrest

Internally I whispered my longings wordlessly
as I pray to see, a life with you into eternity
our story ascending, no last page impending
no finale, just our happiness, never-ending

All those missed dances, the stolen glances
if only id stopped seeking answers, just took my chances
stopped fearing the beast, that stood leering
then today we would be smiling, not sneering

In between words spoken, silences speak of a world broken
what I don't say, never gets in the way, the lost emotion
Could I place a wish on that star, would it reach this far?
would it paint over the scars, cure the heart?  

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Lost in a dream

Can you picture the scene, unclean, unseen
A lost boy in a dream
so alone, in a room filled to the brim
with people who love him

Symbolism tearing at his heart, it parts
lets get back to the start
smiles froze, oceans no longer flow, that red rose
his only escape, a flower, his lover sows

Devil in the details, it creeps, sneaks, take a peak
the lost boy can no longer speak
such a fragile, delicate being, the petals fall
ground covered in the remnants, his head hits the wall

Lost in this dirty world, his life unfurled
there in his bubble, the thoughts swirled
the flower left to curl up, rotten, forgotten
a downward spiral, approaching rock bottom

Picture the view, a room for two, the sunset's hue
the light hit the room, the rose regrew
no longer lost, the boy was found, bad thoughts drowned
the night left him spellbound

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Never Noticed

When did the song come to a stop?

did the disk skip a track, did the power drop?

never noticed the silence before

now it is deafening, a soundless roar

Where did the love go?

was it all just for show?

never noticed the way the light shifted

until darkness descended and my world drifted

Where did it all go wrong?

was it something said or done?

never noticed the way the cold tore through the room

no warmth, the sun displaced, replaced by gloom

How did it come to this?

did the love ever really exist?

never noticed the way your hand held mine

now my hand feels empty, heavy, unkind

When did the laughter start to annoy?

all those smiles, the tears of joy

never noticed the look in your eyes

now I see them in my mind, I want to cry

What caused our downfall?

a collapse, our walls crashed down on us all

never noticed you there

and now its too late, you looked elsewhere

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Empty shelves

Don't have a lot on offer, or much to give

just all of my being, down to my last breath

like a supermarket with bare shelves

nothing in stock apart from myself

Don't have many possessions, no riches to share

just my mind, body, soul and heart laid bare

a market stall, closed to all

an empty table, with just me to call

I can give all I have, every drop of air

because your smile means hope and care

An empty cupboard, a closet left devoid

a blank slate, with just my words to enjoy

Dont have many material goods, but I wont beg steal or borrow

just be all I can, as I grow, in time, today and tomorrow

an empty shop, Abandoned, left to rot

just a a vacant lot, but I will give everything I've got

I dont need a lot, just a smile, three words at a time

in return I give all that I have, all that is mine

you fill my world with more than treasure

your love brings so much pleasure

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Words left unsaid

If I Whisper the words, let them drift to the stars

would they reach your ears, or float away to mars

would they evaporate before they reach the clouds

lost in the atmosphere, would they rain back down

If I speak the words in an empty room

would you somehow know, would you hum the tune

or would they just live there, spectres in the air

ghosts of emotion laid bare

If I shout them loud, or write them down

would you hear the cries or read the lines

or would they just be words with no meaning

left to age without feeling

If I sing the words, a song with a melody

would you listen intently

or just dance to the beat, missing the point

as you shuffle your feet

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Dream lover

A beauty queen, in the dreams where I fall

my eyelids tight, I hear her call

my love, holds herself, like a work of art

her eyes peer through the dark, pierce my heart

Her words inspire, they conjure feelings deep

she speaks a lullaby that helps to sleep

keep the nightmares at bay

with the beautiful things she says

Her perfect way, under the stars, her dress sways

never led astray, always there at the end of day

with her arms held wide, to hold me near

we could fly through the stratosphere

To see her smile, her light shines bright

the prettiest sight in the dark of night

when she laughs, my heart gleams

the lady in my dreams, lover in moonlit streams

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle

You and I

Every night, the same dream

a beautiful scene

you and I, hand in hand

walking the streets of a foreign land

When night descends I hear the calls

as I drift, the vision enthrals

you and I, under a blanket of stars

warm in each others arms

Beneath this canopy of constellations

sleep, a treat, Love's destinations

you and I, a blinding sight in the sky

as we feel the passion electrify

With the moon a guiding light

deep in the dark of night

you and I, a dream away, in a land so free

all I ask, please don't wake me

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Sail Away.

The ship set sail, I missed my place

never boarded, turned away at the gate

it left the coast behind, to travel so far

away from these shores, towards the northern star

The boat took float, into the sun

never to see you again, the end of our run

you waved away my heart

as the waves tore it apart

Sailed away, on a sullen sea

the sunken feeling knocked me to my knees

on a distant trip, to never return

so farewell my love, my heart did churn 

Thank you for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Black and White Rainbows

Under Grey clouds, rainbows of black and white

the words left unsaid, my fright takes flight

I love you, I want you, I need you

float high in the void, the colourless sky, words so true

Under cold steel skylines, down in the greying dirt

the sentences never let out, could cause too much hurt

I admire your ways I am empty without you to enjoy the ride

just travelling this road wishing you were by my side

Under the dark sun, the colours have all run

like my words blurred into a murky hue with no fun

within me words try to fight free

I love you, cant let that be

I want you, no those just wont do

not just a lusty view

I need you, although true the words don't sound right

I ignore the feelings, give my tongue a bite

Let the words simmer, like a stew of misguided feelings

flavours begin to mix, create words I hear when dreaming

you are the heart of the stars, you make the world fine

you are the sky to me, like the sun that shines

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love

Kyle

Star lover

Makes the world spin, keeps me on the ride

the girl who never wants to let go, doesn't hide

the one who wont ever leave, her light gleams

the star lover, who lives in my dreams

Forever turning, whirling, heart like a blanket

wrapped around tight, the best thing on the planet

who always sings along, when the music plays on

the star lover, her beauty shines down upon

She dances with a passion, cuddle from a work of art

held to her, never let her go, no way to part

I could never run, always want her by my side

the star lover, who always has her arms open wide

She sets my heart on overdrive, when she says my name

her tones touch my soul, she never plays any games

always ready to call, when my eyes close I dream of her

drifting through the universe, the star lover

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Electricity

Your face so close, electricity sparks across the room

lost in those eyes, transfixed cant move

don't want to let go, that perfume smell

we light the stars afire, taken in by your beautiful spell

Can taste you on my lips, want to feel your eyes dig into me

as we share the scene, feeling as young as we have been

like teenagers at a show, first time the sparks lit the sky

never want to let go, your hand in mine feels like the best high

The smile in your eyes, lit by the glow of the moon

the closeness unexpected, not unwanted, over too soon

as we held the night so tight

until the sun rose bathing us in light

Sweet the day I saw those eyes, the smile that beams so wide

could just dive in become one and lose myself inside

the perfect lines, the best of times, a feeling so strong

the whole is all, a stunning sunset sang in a song

A flight that could last forever

high above the world floating together

those thoughts of crystal islands, rainbow streams

when we are as one they are not just dreams

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

You are the world

You are the Saharan desert heat

the Himalayan snow, my coral reef

the deepest depths of the largest seas

the highest peaks above the clouds floating free

You are the cities that never rest

live life with such amazing zest

you are the villages, peaceful

when this life can make you feel fearful

You are the waves on the beach

the cooling touch against the sands heat

you are the air I breathe, that lets me be

you are the world to me

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

StarHeart

That night, under a sky alight with a billion fires
we danced, until the sun rose, floating inspired
a life away, looking upon a distant star
you held me and we let go of our scars

The music, the sounds of night fuelled the show
the tunes gave us a chance to grow
a life away, inspired by those twinkling sights
to let go of the past and go forward hitting the heights

Those feelings, emotion told in the look of the eyes
never left the room, never skipped a beat, no goodbyes
a life away, where the stars are ours
to walk hand in hand, to always share hearts

Watched as you left, heavy pain in my chest
the moments shared, ours to forever dream of at best
a life away, pulled the stars from the sky
held them deep in my heart, yours if the darkness makes you cry

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.

Three words

Written on a page, in a book
hidden away from view, you can never look
a short line says how I feel
three little words, not to be made real

If I speak them out loud
you could run into the crowd
id never see you again, cant let this friendship end
so I keep them near, written here, to never send

If those words touch your ears, my fears become real
you could turn on your heel
and here I would end, alone once again
wishing to just get washed up in the rain

Wish I could paint them in the sky,  would be the happiest guy
to say with pride the three words that I hide
but as the day turns to night the stars would fall down
ripping the words right down to the ground

So I let them sit on that page
under lock and key, in a darkened hidden cage
away from the light so no one can read
the words I write to you in my dreams

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love

Kyle.

Positive negatives

Started a list, tried to find your negative side

could only find the positives you hide

Every harsh word you shared sound sweet through your lips

they helped to find myself, be better equipped

When your anger grows and the red mist shades

just want to hold you close until it fades

when your lows hit, you hear the thoughts swarm

want to help you weather the storm

Every dark cloud, every rain soaked mile

just remind me of your loving smile

If you cut me with your ways

id bleed flowers for you everyday

I see your sea of self doubts

want to evaporate them out

let you see the smile underneath

the beauty that you breathe

The list I wrote, full on one side

the other just a line

under negatives, only one note appears

you are not here standing near

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love

Kyle.

Heart of gold

A lost soul searching for that heart of gold
always reaching, trying to find the right mould
living through your life in a daze
just to reach the one who stays

The floating embers of a bonfire of love
those moments brief when you felt enough
when you are living on the edge
so close to falling from that ledge

The streams of tears from waterfalls of emotion
flow past in slow motion
burn like acid in the face of a man in fashion
a life of long forgotten passions

A shell shocked fighter in the wars of the heart
when the battle ended, love did depart
to find its place amongst the graves
of old warriors, lost in the conflicts early days

This old face has seen them all, been them all
taken the highs and felt the falls
enjoyed the nights, despised the days
when that heart of gold walked away

Thanks for reading.

Peace and love.

Kyle.

You bring the sunshine

You bring the sunshine after a storm

heat the blood to feel warm

make the best of days
you bring the brightest rays, please stay

You make it rain, when the day is dry

bring on storms, excite the sky
when you are away, the heart withers and dies
the days feel so grey, with you not by my side

You give the world meaning, someting to believe in
to make each day worth breathing
you bring the light, when darkness is the only sight 

make everything feel just right

You bring music with the beat of the heart

make the songs hit from the start

give a reason to advance
you make the world shine when you dance

Thanks for reading.

Peace and Love.

Kyle.

Riverside

The dancing sun kisses the river
tickles the surface, as the waters glimmer
weather beaten pathway, beside a waterway rippling merrily
the path towards destiny's meeting

Day so beautiful, grey took a trip away
the rays touch the surface, teasingly enticing our thoughts astray
shimmering they bring on a glistening rainbow of colour
a look like no other, a dancing pool of love

In reflection my face older wiser, but still a smile emblazoned
as the spray from the rivers sway stirs senses
cools against the rising heat
that riverside seat where our lips meet

The river flows on to the sea, we don't need a beach just a quiet retreat
the land and waters meet as our toes dip into the depths so sweet
the look in your eyes, deeper than the waters beneath
dive in, forever swimming in the currents of love, hearts unleashed

Thanks for reading.

Peace and Love.

Kyle
