Agony clutches my center,
At the thought of you without shadow..
I cannot let it pass,
And I will not hold on to it.

Your  rhythm haunts my mind,
It's movement against my  softness.

My body follows your dance,
We are together.
Your salty skin is on my lips,
As I inhale your soul.

Meanings are rampant,
Waiting for their moment to have truth..

I want to share your breath,
And feel your passion  in my mind.
I want to know, savour you and
Pleasure you deeply.

I want you to dwell deep in my inner self,
And into my longings.

My mind is filled with your thoughts,
As I push you away to keep it clear.
The feeling is too intense,
And consumes my misplaced logic.

There is a force that draws me to you,
It is overwhelming.

piui poemes
reality
the simple things i put away, ones i crave  the most
linger in everything i do, all that i see
i contemplate what i know
and i dream of reality
neglect leads to failure, failure to pain
the little lies we tell ourselves
contradictions of our ways
i seek the light of your mind
the flawless beauty, it's trapped inside
your walls--confine me
keep me from reality

Gone Away

you say i never care
you say i never try
and through this life i sat and stared
and always wondered why
the one i love most dearly
the one i hold so high
wouldn't come near me
you never even tried
and now i sit alone
now i am afraid
that the light you used to show
had died and gone away

melissa sproles
careless
i feel the need to disappear
into the blindness of my mind
deep and searching
useless preaching
of what we ought to be
free to fall
careless in thought
shameless pride
i feel so small
melissa sproles
vain
am i beautfiul to you
do i meet your expectations?
am i your source
of mad infatuation?
beauty, you see, it's inside of me
the depths of your mind could never hold me inside
i'm too much to handle,
too much to bear
i'm the one you love
the one who's demanding
i am always there...
