Closer
Taken off unto thy waters
skimming free from insecurity
learning to breathe
over and over
again
drenched
in new found memories
blue touching stones
stepping right into you
basking
summers glowing light
for more than just a night
and the only rain
is kissing deeply
in two longing lips
pieces
no longer miss~shapen
fit and meld as if one
you walking here
mixing in the middle
pictures
a pristine clarity
eyes blink, time hesitates
and endless heartbeats move ...
skimming free from insecurity

when you're around
what is it
that
when you're around
everything becomes meaningful
and
meaningless
at the same time
when you're around
even the scariest masks you put on
evoke the deepest of joys
for what the eye sees
becomes irrelevant
as the heart becomes the single
source of all the senses
the sight the touch the smell
the taste
and more
and they say
that is a case
of mind over matter
how stupid
can't you see
it is a case
of heart over matter
not the mind
for the mind surrenders ...

Five Little Letters
Lying here listening to
Thunder rolling in
Rain cascading off
The roof
Feeling about as alone
In this world
As a body
Could
Up pops a message
From you
My whole world
Shifts
Oh my love
The power of the written word
My soul on fire
With five little letters … “hello”
Suddenly the day holds
Promise
The night holds
Bliss
A place
Of magic
With the rain and thunder all-round
Wrapped in the passion of your arms
Thunder rolling in
Rain cascading off
The roof
Feeling about as alone
In this world
As a body
Could
Up pops a message
From you
My whole world
Shifts
Oh my love
The power of the written word
My soul on fire
With five little letters … “hello”
Suddenly the day holds
Promise
The night holds
Bliss
A place
Of magic
With the rain and thunder all-round
Wrapped in the passion of your arms

Dawn of Tomorrow
I hear your calling in the wind
And my soul leaps in joy
I feel so warm deep within
When you set the sails and shout “ahoy.”
-
The ocean waves are at peace
And the sun lights up my world
The stars guide my voyage across the sea
Your soul is far more precious than any pearl.
-
Like the seagulls I cry out loud
As I’m freed from all my sorrow
I stand upon my ship, tall and proud
My hope lies with the dawn of tomorrow.
-
After many years we meet at last
Upon the golden sands of a tropical island
Looking into your...

Wings
I am running to you in white
with my long hair flying behind
which riding early summer wind
like angel’s thousand wings
Run until sweat drenched my thighs
and the white gown stuck to my breast lines
Run until my raven hair breaks through
my portrait frame of this life
that you have sketched for me to dive
I promise to abide
You must have known my thoughts
through the radiating perpetual scent
even though I speak in a foreign accent
You are standing in the hallway of light
so lovely bright with a sunny smile

The I Love You Poem
I Love You
I've been saying this for almost a year
In the last twenty-two poems
I'm pretty sure I made that clear
aside from a hundred or so
written about Universe homes
and such
According to a few
perhaps too much
What to write for Numbers
twenty-four and upwards
I wish to God I knew
but it sure as Hell won't stop me
from trying to find a new way
fresh words to say
I Love You
for Ahavati with Love
💜

kissing in the sun lit rain
Starving on this island
Intense longing for our souls entwined
Wishing your body was not only in my mind
A distance from you, I just can no longer bear
Into the sunset that draws you to me, I will stare
Moving all mountain, water and sky in my way
Only the space between us is now in play
And how to remove it
On my passion's way
To your wet kiss...
Intense longing for our souls entwined
Wishing your body was not only in my mind
A distance from you, I just can no longer bear
Into the sunset that draws you to me, I will stare
Moving all mountain, water and sky in my way
Only the space between us is now in play
And how to remove it
On my passion's way
To your wet kiss...

Antagonists & Protagonists
So dropping my guard;
These guns.
Tiresome be the constant
grip, fearful approaches
Be the Demon antagonists
the real protagonists of my
tale to tell
For they hold me still
But I'm impressed by
his unflinching stare,
Hes tuned in out there
somewhere, busy with
assessing subtleties,
working out answers to
loves small changes
He's aware as I prepare
to lower my guns
That for now is all & everything
I could ask for.

The Last Ride
Packing the bags, filling the tank
One last ride, though the map is blank
Miles of road so there’s time to think…
Of conclusion and resolution
To clear pollution and form solutions
To stop depending on delusion, and relying on confusion
We had to drive there to drive back
The journey was longer cause our tires were flat
Game was harder cause the deck was stacked
Eyes out the window gazing at scenery
As I wrestling with all the thoughts that have been killing me
And battling with all the rage that has been filling me

Lessons from the wrong bed
Fuck me, God, the sex was neat.
Me, far from town, and work-trip bound.
Not in the least setting out to cheat
‘Til enough of the top shelf had been downed.
Copious amounts of glorious whiskey
Must have been what was to blame.
Couldn’t possibly be me feeling frisky,
Prancing ‘round, like in some frat house game.
Fucked him fast and hard, like playing a fiddle.
He counted my orgasms, two by four.
Dammit did he my body kindle.
Enflamed, engulfed, screaming for more.
Tearful awakenings ‘round 4:00 in the morning.
Black reminders...
Me, far from town, and work-trip bound.

‘Til enough of the top shelf had been downed.

Fucked him fast and hard, like playing a fiddle.

Sole Survivor
It was a night
I lost my final battle
the night i lowered my defences
shattered my weapons
and fell to my knees
bloodied under the weight
of my own armoury
I was as fallen as a warrior without conviction
betrayed by my fading faith
I had walked a million miles
fought a thousand battles
to stay alive
from wars i knew i wouldn't win
and now this day has finally arrived
this night
I surrender to the enemy
with its smothering power
suffocating my pride
my determination
I'm leaving...
I lost my final battle
the night i lowered my defences
shattered my weapons
and fell to my knees
bloodied under the weight
of my own armoury
I was as fallen as a warrior without conviction
betrayed by my fading faith
I had walked a million miles
fought a thousand battles
to stay alive
from wars i knew i wouldn't win
and now this day has finally arrived
this night
I surrender to the enemy
with its smothering power
suffocating my pride
my determination
I'm leaving...

A ‘Morning’ Dove
A Dove , mourning.
In my morning.
Outside my window,
the sunlight storming.
Through the glass ,
I see her tear.
From the Dogwood blossoms !
she asks . . .
didn’t love used to live here.
In my mourning ,
a tear rolls , falling on the sill ,
the Dove coos on ,
mourning . . . in my morning .
Onward . . . life callously strolls ,
sometimes scorning .
In my morning.
Outside my window,
the sunlight storming.
Through the glass ,
I see her tear.
From the Dogwood blossoms !
she asks . . .
didn’t love used to live here.
In my mourning ,
a tear rolls , falling on the sill ,
the Dove coos on ,
mourning . . . in my morning .
Onward . . . life callously strolls ,
sometimes scorning .
