PorchWe can sit on the porch and dream about being president,
Drink our cold drinks from warm glasses.

I can grow a beard, you can grow your pubic hair, we can grow old together,
You can wash my old car in your jean shorts and your wife beater.
We can laugh about how we'll be rock stars, with leather pants and never showering again,
Our name on some cover art.

ZZ TopDo you have a short film inside you waiting to be made,
Make it.
Do you have a dream to find a girl from a ZZ Top video,
Find her.
Don't you think life would be a little bit better if you wore a cowboy hat everyday?
Wear one.
I wonder what would happen if you watched Joe Dirt 50 times in one day.
Try it.
Do you ever wonder what would happen if your car broke down on the side of the road.
Pull the spark plugs.
Wouldn't life be better if your hair was longer.
Grow it.

Fresh EyesI love the dark and I love the dirty things about you,
I love the way your long hair drapes down your back.
The look in your eyes that says you lust after me,
The curl to your lips when you talk about my torn jeans.
I love the way you leave your underwear on my bedroom floor,
And your smell on my pillows and my fingers.
The way your lipstick is smeared down the back of my neck,
And your perfect fingerprint is indebted into my shoulder.
Whether it's waterfights, games of Snap! Or just kissing, we always have fun,
Even when we just sit there and stare at each other, trying to see into each other's past.
I always wonder if you're too h

Tilt-o-whirlMy car is dirty,
Your mind is dirtier.
This gas station might be the last for a while,
We best fill up the back seat with chips and cheap wine.
I can paint my face in clown colours if it will make you love me more,
If you shave yourself smooth for me.
We can survive the coming dust storm,
We can survive the next fight we have.
I'll finally wash my hair,
If you promise to wear heals so high that you get a nose bleed.
We'll burn this Santa outfit to the ground, until only a small red dot survives,
And we'll bruise in exactly the same places.
We'll live in slow motion, tripping over our Doc Martin laces and our attitudes,
We'll blin

19th Century

i have some fairly fatal flaws,
i try my best to give all of myself but still hold back.
i just want to kiss but rarely make the first move.
i want to be loved, wholly and souly for all that i am, including my insecurities.
i want to talk slower, and have what i say make sense in my head,

i want candles, i want hands on me, and notes.
i want to understand what makes me so i can impart that knowledge to you,
i want you to get inside so you can impart some knowledge back to me.

i want to feel comfortable somewhere, anywhere.
i want my fears to go away,
i want to open myself up to everything you have to offer, and i want you to offer it.
i want to be able to sleep through the night, sometimes in your bed, sometimes in your head.

i want to have the answers to my questions, and be able to give you the 19th century romance you want.

Identify with, "i want to talk slower, and have what i say make sense in my head". Your poetry makes me miss love.

I love that you decided to let your 1.26a thoughts be shared with us all, because they are rather magnificent.

Why can't everyone be so open about what they want? Be able to put it into simple terms like that? It would make things so much easier in life rather than having to guess from conflicting words and actions.

Gosh how I wish I were this honest when it matters most!!

~rachelmia Oct 27, 2010

and what are the pictures but visuals of the words/thoughts?

i think i like the whole package as it is.

`scottjamesprebble Oct 27, 2010

That's very true. You're very wise young lady.

~somethingstrung Oct 26, 2010

Thanks for sharing mate, I think you've put to words what people hide, even if we don't all want exactly the same things the world would be a much easier place to understand each other if people maintained this level of raw honesty. Deep down everyone wants to be loved and we feel alone when we have no one, but when we're surrounded by people we often insist on shutting people out and being alone, and only let others love their mask. The only way to truly feel loved is to let people see what is truth; what is capable of being loved.

`scottjamesprebble Oct 26, 2010

It's a lot easier said than done I guess.

~rachelmia Oct 26, 2010

still undecided, whether its your words or pictures i like most.
