Goodbye Isn't Final
No goodbye
Is truly final
For destiny
Hands out favors

Cop who
Passes out
His menacing

In a somewhere somehow reality. Please
Find our home
So our wandering hearts can roost
In the nest of
Together

Loop
Sometimes I think
I already forgot your name
then I hear the rustle of leaves
and that wind so jealous
pulling your hair
and reminding me of your voice
everything in the stones spells your name
everything in the fire supposes your eyes
water boils and air evaporates
just to make me remember
that I can't forget you
I turn to the side and try to ignore the light
ineffective attempt to lull my sleep
to dissolve me into an eternal dream
lullabies that I never sang
that I never heard from you
I want...

to catch a dream
Dally a moment in my sleepy dreams
Drink a draft of fantasies
Lay down here beside me, bare,
Mental load discarded on the floor
Hand warm resting on my waist
Breath warm, wafting ‘round my visions
Magically igniting from this ne’er ending need
hallucinations of your touch and taste
Gliding, pressing closer to me
Your voice soft in my ear
“______, I am here”
Spare me this—a fantasy made real
In my dreams as I sleep tonight
because I miss you still
Drink a draft of fantasies
Lay down here beside me, bare,
Mental load discarded on the floor
Hand warm resting on my waist
Breath warm, wafting ‘round my visions
Magically igniting from this ne’er ending need
hallucinations of your touch and taste
Gliding, pressing closer to me
Your voice soft in my ear
“______, I am here”
Spare me this—a fantasy made real
In my dreams as I sleep tonight
because I miss you still

Bumped Into
It’s been years
How you doing? How you been?
Do you still catch up with the guys from way back when?
Are you married? Kids?
Got yourself a girl?
Have you finally met the one that you get to call your world?
I’m fine, thanks for asking
No no really I’m just great
But is it normal to wish I could plan my final day?
Would you show up? Cry?
Would you even care?
That I spend my whole life wishing you were there?
I’m sorry, I’ll stop
I know you haven’t got all day
Yet I keep wishing I’ll finally hear you say:
“I love...

Good-night
Sleep well tonight, my Love
Remember how often I’m thinking of
Your life, your heart, your amazing soul
I dream of knowing e’er more the whole
Of who you are, where & why
Freely sharing each low & each high
Showing & feeling our shared desire
My Love, tonight, dream of my fire
Burning, e’er burning for more of you
So good-night, sleep well this whole night through

Together…Beyond Words
I’ve been so restless for you
With sensations that sop up all my words
Leaving me speechless
While legions within
Long for expression:
Feelings, desires, longings, cravings
Clamber to be known
reaching for you
I can only hope
The strength of emotion
Spans the chasm of space & time
Of silence & absence
Fills all that is lacking
with Enough
I can only hope that somehow you
Sense & Know
I Love You
Let’s not be lonely apart
But rather together…
In secret moments beyond...

Forever Worn
Love when it slips through, your fingers. you are left with a discarded cardigan. Its seen better days. It has been worn draped from shoulder's who never felt the weight of the world as it was shared and cared for with a label of delicacy and fibres that withstood the test of durability. A double-knit pearl one knit two with a tight stitch which was entwined. You never realised that years down the line it was exchangeable.
Now your favourite is demoted in an infrastructural remodel. It doesn't seem to meet the new guidelines it’s not considered to be a classic staple piece it...

Just once, and then we can forget.
Do you remember me?
Have you noticed I've gone?
Is my room cold and empty?
Have you checked?
I know I'm not what you dreamed of.
But I break my skin each day,
hoping you'll ask me to stay.
I try to say its mutual,
but when I'm sick and alone,
your number is the only one in my phone.
I'm not what you wanted,
but I hope one day you'll be okay with that.
Be okay with me.
'Cause I've tried to change for you.
I've tasted silence,
with its quiet flavor of obedience.
I am tired now.

Another Trail
If I could
I’d surprise you with a journey
To trails of moss & fern
To evergreen woods
Places of my youth
Following babbling brooks to find
where trilliums hide
We’d mend our hearts beside
Blooms of bleeding hearts
Pucker our lips on lucky sourgrass
As we’d pluck & nibble their yellow buds
It wouldn’t matter
On which side the moss grows
Or what we discover over the hill
As we reach for hands long loved
Long missed
We’d stay awhile
In the cooling mist
Of those fairy woods
Our own fairytale ...

Watching the Ivy Grow
I know the nature of your mind
Obsessive planning, minutes gained and hours trashed
My name gets lost in traffic
But nevermind the flowers, chocolates, or intricately scripted card
There’s an old, old house I recall
We used to pass it by
Perfect cobble walls, and cedar planks saturated with the scent of abandonment
It is a familiar smell we both know
I want to see a smile slip because I’m funny
I crave afternoons and evenings of an embrace that speaks skin to skin “you are safe now”
.. Even breathing next to you would be enough for me
So...

Again…
The intensity washes as waves
Bends me as gusts of wind
Propels me…
This time it’s (again)
Images of you I vainly crave
To see once more your face
To read the subtle stories of the years that passed
(as rings beneath the bark of a tree).
I thirst to drink the secrets of your eyes
To have you deign a glance towards me
I miss the motions of your lips
Wielding magic languages their own
In this darkness still
I seek your light
Yet only blackest echoes
Reverberate this night
Again
