Love 9(p fMore
By gyendor!^(. WafisaC
I found your you Som
in SrigHtfree [igfit,
cCean and Bound between
tfiz fractured sounds and seems
of my caugfit up dreams
and my Cost, midnigHt suns.
Then on tke run, I now stayed,
and tfien and tfiere I now prayed,
Because, I new, you were tfie one.
9{pt [ool^ngfor Cove,
yet you seized my me, too.
And your souC smiCed tfirougfi,...
and your souCsmiCed ‘True.
Afi, But tfmt was awhife,
quite awfiiie ago, tfien:
when we paired Ci!^ the dove
and my Cove was your friend.
One moonkss nigfit
you caCCed on my me
and Cove's emptied ecfw
screamed fits sad repCy-
sfw-ttering night's ConeCy sl(y;
as pain-seared wfiys
drained down tear-stained eyes
tfuit fw.d onCy seen ‘Trutfi in my ties.
I wasn’t tfiere to ficCdor to care,
so scared,...
you went away and cried.
I foCfowedyour tears
on tHe wings of Cost Cove,
confused ficpe, and new-Bom sfiame
to a fear-fi[[ed room
wfiere your you sat entomBed,
face [it By a single, coCdfCame;
roclQng an aloneCy,
weary-eyedgCoom
in a Bent-[eggedBCue cHair
of tfie same.
And rigfit tfiere, we BotFi. sfiared
a counterfeit care
as you carekssCy, stairfessfy
recited my name.
Studied, fii-jacf^d, and Bricl^a-Brac^dpieces
of my unspof^n dreams
suddenly sifted and screamed to my core
and [if ted my swo[[en eyes
from my unredeemed to!(en [ies
spread to[d and co[d and caugfit
upon your Brougfit andBrof(en sou[
tfuit sCowCy opens and quictify starts
to swa[[ow and eat my CittCe Cow fieart wfto[e
as my souCtries to Hide, to Bette, tfien deny
tfiat [ove’s died and tfiat [ove is no more.
And yet do I run in to you
and yet do you see me tfirougfi
to arm that wi[[ not [eave your door;
seeiQng [ove I won’t find
for tftougfi 1 see, am I Sfind,
to tfie fact tfmt our [ove is no mere.

Believe In Me
by Mo
We have together through thick and thin
Only now we have been chosen to be
much higher than friends
We are now lovers, which carries a very
special bond
The act of betrayal now could do do
much harm
My heart is yours, and all of its dimen"
sions
you have one'tracked my mind, so you
have all of my attention
So believe in me, because you are my
future
My only wish is that the feeling will
always be mutual
In you, true love is what I really found
I can hear everything your heart says,
without you uttering a sound
When the sky starts to blacken, and the
clouds starts to appear
Just remember a couple of bad days don't
account for a number of great years
For every storm, there's a rainbow waiting
at the end
So believe in me, because there is no
heart that Mo can't mend.
SOMEONE ELSE
Ly D’ Marcus Beatty
His love stays restrained, ckaracteristically quiet
tecause ke must keep it locked inside
as ke fears its release would crusk kis pride
Because kis love is patketically unre.quited
He watckes tkem togetker despite tke keartacke
as tkey laugk and smile at one anotker
telling kim and tke world of tkeir union as lovers
Witk eack playful kiss, kis spirit kreaks
Pain is now a familiar friend
as kappiness is so fleeting and rare
ke curses a life tkat never seems fair
And contentment found only witk life’s end
Tkougk otker girls smile and wave to kim often
apatketic, ke takes only tke sligktest notice
as ke longs for only ker suklime kiss
A coveted prize ke knows ke’ll never win
So kis pain ke skall keep to kimself
kis feelings will remain kis own
and in tkis world ke'll stay alone
His love is in love witk someone else
