If I ?
If l surrendered
Completely surrendered
Where would you take me
What would l see
What unuttered desire would you share
What heights could be soared
Which parts of me would you claim

Life Resumes
It comes bewildering, scary
Snatching my breath
Tearing apart fairytale facades
Disrupting hard fought safety
Suddenly knowing and doing are not the same
Laying questions before me
What l want to be and what l am. Poles apart
Their Lables making it all too hard
What am l?
Can l choose?
Good and not me
Bad and doomed
But here it is...demanding and insistent
Too loud to be ignored
Longing snaking through my day
Stupid or brave
I leap out
A small delightful death and...
Now the fall begins
Is this excitement or...

Substance Love
The first time a crystal memory
Supergirl unleashed
Acceptance pulsing through me
I fell
I am yours, so easily
Like you were always there waiting
Devoted, Besotted, Dedicated
I followed wherever you led
Took what you offered
My hunger never sated
I chased you, pursued you to whatever end you demanded
My sacrifices
All that l am, all l have, all l know
I give it's yours now
Never enough
And....
Reality slipping back
Returning to solid ground
Oblivion unreachable
Briefly first but soon
I am back
