Portrait of a beautiful man

Every female eye notices the shadows across your skin
Noting the muscles, the chest hair, the eyes
And your words, so debonair

After four whole years, you opened up to me
Your face changed that day
Your emotions flew through the air
Eyes barely open and mouth rambling
She left you and now you're broken
Vulnerability in the light for me to see
Insecurities getting the best of you
Now your bed is an invitation to all

Beautiful man, don't lose hope
Love is love because it will hurt
It hurts, it mends, and it learns
Love can't be love without an opposite emotion

Beautiful man, don't fall away
Fight the pain and you'll regain
Love you've never known before

Beautiful man, you will begin to feel
The reds, yellows, blues, and all the intricate hues
Don't sell your body to hopelessness
Love does not grow there

Beautiful man, beautiful man, beautiful man
You were made in love!
Love is the cure
If your cup is empty, fill it up
Love given is love received

Beautiful man, you are love
Love so fervently, till love is all you see
Don't allow darkness to seep through
And when your beautiful lady comes to you

Your love will be true
Your love will be new
Your love will be due

Love on, beautiful man

We Wouldn't Be the Couple We Are If...

I've lost all control
Mind, hands, and soul
My hearts racing "like a bullet from a gun"
Neuron lights flying through my brain
Like exit lights on the floor of a plane
I'm screaming and running through a crowd of people
One day they'll fill the hill containing our steeple
I never knew the definition of peace
Till I met you
Please don't let me combust
I don't want to leave but I must
Will you watch me go?
Maybe time will feel slow
I'm going to watch you 
Through the darkness of my eyelids
Till I see your beautiful face again
And the world will not feel so mundane

With Ecstatic Ways

Bodies aching to jump
Our shadows rich with colors unimaginable
Keeping hope, our lost fingers connect together in wholeness
Hands locked and loaded, my dear
Every part of you is a part of me
Separation of our hearts creates a beat unknown
Losing the most admired equinox
Though we each share the weight of gravity's pull
Reds, yellows, and greens flash by
We share the stops, the slows, and the go's
The force of love is on our side
So run with me baby to the edge of the universe
The soles of our shoes will leave traces of proof
Memories scattered all over the world
We can stand on top of the moon
And throw our worry, fear, and sadness into the dark
Watch it get sucked away through a black hole
And float on, float on, we will
Together as one
