Van Gogh

You’re my favorite kind of rain:

The sort that creeps in furtively, wafting a scintillating breeze over a sun-kissed earth; and you settle without a sound. You slowly blanket me, letting your embrace calm my restless thoughts; but you allow a few sultry rays remain to keep the edge off of your chilling onset.

You’re my favorite kind of rain:

The type that commences gently, languishing over every detail of your setting- washing it clean, bathing it with the tenderness of a new parent. Your kiss is soft but determined, deep but swift. You renew me with a vigor all your own. I remain in breathless anticipation of your next graceful entrance.

You’re my favorite kind of rain:

You only bless my presence every so often. Your purest beauty remains in the quintessentially mystical. I crave you for your artistic expression and effortless affections. You are regal, yet unsophisticated- your ways feral yet placating. You demand my love for your care is unmistakably unconditional.

You are my sunny rain.

Lyrics Fall like Raindrops

Lyrics fall like raindrops upon my famished being.
They culminate, one by one, in a nourishing stream-
Quelling the apathy, healing with empathy,
Inculcating messages as in a dream,
Lyrics fall like raindrops and aid me with seeing

    The sentiments behind the words, the words behind the notions,
The depth and breadth and girth of all the subtle evocations.
As they make sense my senseless voice, elucidate emotion,
Lyrics fall like raindrops with pow'rful locomotion.

When 'twixt mind and tongue lies communicative disparity
And my heart's expression 's bound by shackles of asperity,
Soak me in your sweet deluge of sentimental clarity.
Let lyrics fall like raindrops of smooth serenity.

Sometimes

Sometimes it only rains on my street
Sometimes it only rains onto me
Sometimes I have to shuffle my feet
Just to get through the heat that swelters right up to me.

Some days don’t wanna leave a trace-
To escape and find some better way
Some days just wanna kiss your face
Consume your lovely grace although your miles away.

(Chorus)
Oh what am I to do-
So alone and so in love with you?
Oooo who am I to choose to take my mind off you
To make my skies turn blue…?

Sometimes I think your standin’ there
Like a ghost that’s loomin’ in the air
Smell your skin and feel your smilin’ stare
I think that you still care, I think you’re everywhere

(Bridge)
Then it goes a-tricklin’ down again
Same old salty, bitter taste and then-
Here you come on into town again
I see your chucklin’ grin, that same old toothy din…

Oooo, here it comes anew
You just touched me and it felt so true
Oooo, what am I to do, to get away from you
To quit this same ol’ tune?

Lover's Aquatic Tryst

To consummate our love in daylight
Would prove a mis’rable finish.
Let’s consecrate instead in darkness
And fuse our destinies always.

A delicate portal must be plunged-
Breath-taking scene to follow-
To verify we’ll be together
Despite intolerant rivals.

We’ll bathe in depths profoundly midnight;
And stripped of respiration,
Will reach and clench each other’s bodies-
Enacting mounting commitment.

Do not despair my sweet, dear lover;
For I’ll encourage your passion.
And not a care will come to tarnish
The chaste emotions between us.

I Want You Whole

Not in part, I want the whole:
The broken places, no empty spaces,
Dark displacements, I want control;
But not in part- I want the whole.

I want your tears, your bitter tears,
Your bile and blood, entire flood
Soiled in mud, I want your fears.
I want your tears, your bitter tears.

Collide- with me, you are complete.
I am not broken- my precious token.
No lies are spoken, with love replete
Collide with me; you are complete.

Not in part, I want the whole:
No passive critique, don’t want you meek
Patience won’t peak; but you already know:
Don’t want you in part- I want you whole.

Bring on the Rain

You made it a hot, humid day
Your silky beams streaming fevered sighs
They're melting into gray
My crystal rays shoot chills as I rise.

A static shock!
Clouds wrap 'round us trapping heat.
Winds howl their playful mock
Of my resolve trickling 'way at your feet.

Chorus 1
So bring on the rain
To melt the ice and cool the blaze-
So lonely it's insane
Without your love to ease this craze.

The mist is floating down
Stray drops crash abrupt caress
Dampen the eager ground
Pulses race in sheer unrest...

Melding into your space.
Yes you steam into me.
And your kiss leaves a trace
Of what is gonna be

Chorus 2
Please bring on the rain.
We need celestial relief.
Hear our refrain
We need to dissipate this grief.

Then down comes the flood,
Raging coursing of blood,
The thunder roars as the water pours
And the lightning smites all my lingering fights...

We're drenched in our love (Repeat)
