second

always night shedding light
on our situation, complicated
real or fake, love or mistake
shedding tears for me? ever?
doubtful fears yeah i'm clever

poems deep hatred steep
from what I see, disappointing
return my care? excessive?
too much love possessive

Creativity

Lurking in our brain
Something to explain
Chemical signs
Earthly designs
Art common symbol
Artists resemble
Thought unchanging
Time rearranging
Love an emotion
Becomes devotion
Imagination
Truth or Fiction?

Italy

Just here alone 
Thinking of home
Crying and sad 
Living is bad

Compartmentalize
Understand and strive  
Pushing harder 
To go farther

Remaining here
For just this year
Growing stronger
Mindful wander

Leaving

Finally have your heart
This could be our start
Love you till I die
Just two: you and I

Distance pulls apart
Trading you for art
Will you love me still
Saying no will kill

Best wishes and a kiss
Making you forever missed

Wide awake

Wide awake in the night
Want you here to hold me tight
Thoughts of future on my mind
Dreamlike prospects make me blind
The truth is fiction as is fate
A life to love and create

Only friends

When we started talking last year
We decided to make things clear
There would be no feelings involved
Only friends forever we both resolved

Summer became heaven then a hell
She asked, I chose to tell
Tears of sadness from both sides
All because you told me lies

A realization hit me that day
I have chosen not to say
It would change way to much
Can you feel when we touch?

I may be different than before
But still the person you adore
Love has grown in my heart
I die inside when we part

You say this is only friends
I really disagree but that offends
You are scared of the truth
I am not even a sleuth

It is time to love again
Do not choose to show distain
I am only asking you why
You Paul Steadman won't even try

Tonight

Great big eyes
With much surprise
From a far
In my car

One small kiss
My foreign bliss
Here and gone
Time moves along

See you soon
Under another moon
In your sight
A great tonight
