shaping dreams
whether
hours into
darkness
or midnight
itself,
come walk
with me,
you help
shape
my dreams,
take all
of the
time there
that you
want before
you choose
to leave.

no chance
i have
no chance
to catch
her,
unless she
chooses to
slow down
considerably
or come
to a
complete
stop.

tomorrow never arrives
by the
time
tomorrow
arrives,
it will
become
today
and today
will just
become
another
yesterday.

my sleep is broken
my sleep
is broken,
even though
i still
feel drowsy,
my mind
flashes to
the idea
of morning,
but now
since
my eyes
are open,
i can
appreciate
the beauty
of the
night.

inkwells die
the quill
kept
stabbing
the inkwell
over
and over
until all
of its soul
was gone,
but,
the quill
did leave
the last
words
of the
ink on
the paper
for all
to read.

floats
her voice
easily
floats
over the
ocean,
and as i
lost sight
of her,
our talk
disappeared,
i felt
as empty
like
someone
with no
secrets,
no hopes
or wishes,
watching
everything
sail away.

fall trees -- naked trees
the fall
trees
gather
up cloaks
of brighter
garments,
it's not
pride,
desire or
a way
of being
boastful,
it becomes
a part
of their
life they
cannot
ignore
or change.
naked trees
how do
most trees
survive
the cold
winter
months
while naked?

lit candle
how
i am
certain
if i
were to
let
love's fire
consume
me,
it would
be
as if
i were
like
a lit
candle
losing its
life.

the clouds
the clouds
were busy
shape
shifting,
forgetting
how to fly,
their sense
of direction
was over,
their
languages
disappeared,
they opened
their mouths
and only
rain formed,
taking time
to fall
to
the ground,
even with
no intentions,
they weighted
the earth
with their
lost voices.

coming days
the past
easily
crumbles
behind me,
like
distant
memories,
and if
i can see
a fairly
good
transition
or illusion
of my
coming days,
i am
not sure
whether i
should
be happy,
angry or
mournful.

tears
do not
shed
another
single
commodity
such as
one
of your
tears,
they are
too precious
to give
away over
a love
that hasn't
captured
you yet.

as she sat beautiful
as she
sat
beautiful,
what i
find loveliest,
immeasurable,
a different
kind of
intimacy, how
many times
i recognized
but could
not name,
hope flickers
like
a torch,
low and
pale
through
the darkness,
ever looking
downward
from the
world unknown,
no sound
to my
silent night,
i heard
nothing but
still saw
her everything.
