Yes, I am a fox.

Words. Painted on silence.

Foxes flee to the forest when weapons get drawn A rider sitting silently Her hounds are her pawns She'd rather her dogs Who beg and lay in need Than a finicky fox Trying to follow her lead They'll tear the fox to pieces As soon as she gives the whistle As if the fox hasn't run far enough Through twists, thorns, and thistle So Nary a fox should live in these woods And Wary a fox as wary a fox should Find safety passed the forest Back to the comfort of your hollow In silence sitting painfully Hoping hounds cannot follow -mtk

I bought you a rose And it lays on your robe The one you were about to first wear With slippers and tea And soaps selected carefully In hopes this love would fair But winter did arrive And roses no longer thrive Even with the rain they need So now slowly on this cotton bed To be a martyr for love unfed A wilting semblance of my being A rose lies dying for thee

We left at the battlefield Where men died for a belief A stronger correlation a coalition of my grief The soldiers on the front line Never knew what the general saw the alarm and the Sirens Sounding a soon withdrawal So this is where we part Where thousands of men lost their way This was where we parted On what I thought was a perfect day It makes sense to leave it here My heart, in this field Open for soldiers of love To fire my laid down shield -mtk

You know it would be That I would offer to carry you across this creek But I know sure as this water flows free You'll want it equally on your feet The sound and the feel Of flowing can't compete ...even with this heart that beats ...Louder than the drums Of a hundred native songs Warmer than a fire A hundred winters long I can't save my life By ever thinking twice... So I live it wrong. To save my life I can't ever think twice So I say it all So I say it all ...it's my down fall. You know it would be I would shake the world for your tree To climb high inside and live within your leaves You know it would be Because I am about you that crazy Until I find a love that feeds A love that feeds

When we kissed it was warm it was welcome it was right it was a start… But I found it was hard it was blocked it was that your lips wouldn’t part…

Come to find it’s your heart with the fence wrangling horses in your pen is your defense

And in the Sun where everything shines it’s easier to forget the darkness still inside back in those stalls behind thick wooden walls where your heart is as tight as your reigns where it beats alone until you choose time to play

Next we kiss will be warm will be welcome will be right will be a new start For I have found we both may have the keys to the other’s locked heart

I love you, little corner coffee But I can't come here again You harbor coldness and disappointment within I sit next to women I try not to listen Expecting and hoping and wishing Longing for an attachment And they get swept under your rug When her boldness, that coldness Every time blows in And she doesn't hold any empathy It's factual, and actual When her false greetings turn to stern meetings Your baby's not coming any time soon There was a hold up, complications, a full moon Your application has been denied We can't continue because of XY But I've done my side, we tried And they all think You don't know trial Living life all the while Expecting positive news Meeting in a coffee shop Where my love finally grew -mtk

This infinite minute I will live in Between wanting And waiting Carefully collecting Falling feathers For your dream catcher For if you’re here I have mine caught

There's something about you The playful child from within That wraps its warming blankets Around the thickest of my skin And allows me to smile To grasp life once again To find a new soul Who is happy to begin And it's this mystery glow Outpouring from your vibe Like magnets attracting Hearts from inside That rewinds my mind Skatters thoughts like the leaves Reminds me how time Simply makes me believe I'll dance one day beside you Take your hand to the floor Move in time to melodies We've never heard before -mtk

I can see it in your eyes the spirit unbroken as if pages unread unturned unspoken

But I find you open willing to share your secrets sex or salvation selectively keep it

You move me

Making me 

Shaking me

This is the last time You get to complain About this shadow A full-frame mountainous gloom Looming over The clouds are taking tolls And carrying a mischievous plan unnoticed Dive down deep to dig out What neighbors have to borrow, And don't put back -mtk
