Connection

Hesitation
Timidly I creep closer
Boldly I step
Yet fearfully I tremble
Daintily you look
Seductively you giggle
I try to still
The thunder in my chest
Awkwardly I reach out
Hoping for a connection
Gingerly your hand touches mine
Soft skin without blemish
Taking hold
Pulling me close
Running your finger
Along my arm
Lost completely
In your eyes
Mysterious yet unveiling
Whispering in my ear
Words that echo through my mind
Safe in my arms
Unsure of yourself
Lost in a moment
Found in each other

Who Are You

Chasing questions
With missing answers
Who are you
Where did you come from
I can't quite remember
Just how we met
Yet we seemed to have gotten along
Maybe you snuck in
Or maybe I blinked
Without even realizing
You somehow got close
Tell me a secret
A password to your heart
I promise to keep it
Like a key in a box
Hidden for the perfect time
When you place your heart with mine

City Lights

City lights
Blocking out
The blackest sky
A star ridden blanket
Hidden by
City lights
Walking the streets
Looking up
Seeing nothing
Because of
City lights
Singing softly
To God above
City lights
Obscure my view
Of God's great creation
Vast and endless
Masked behind
City lights
Loaded prayers
Heavy questions
Directed towards
City lights
God in Heaven
Hear my cries
As I stand
Under these
City lights
