"Real Love"
7/15/94 by April Conyers

To never be alone.
To always have a friend in you.
Someone who can kiss you at just the right times.
Someone who can never forget how to make you smile.

Maybe it's nice to be able to share good times-
and sometimes bad.

Knowing when to apologize-
and when to wait.

Satisfying every emotion,
need,
and will-
with one touch.

Never wanting to leave.

"Shadowy Heart"
11/7/97 by April Conyers

I live and die-
in my shadowy heart.
I moan and cry-
in my shadowy heart.
I scream in angst-
in my shadowy heart.
I writhe in pain-
in my shadowy heart.

I live and die-
in my rainbow heart.
I laugh and cry-
in my rainbow heart.
I'd wait a while-
in my rainbow heart.
Things aren't the same-
in my rainbow heart.
There is no shame-
in my rainbow heart.
