Cedarwood Skin
I inhale deeply,
Sleepily
But my mind won’t ease
I don’t want to leave
The incense of insomnia
I breathe
In again
Marking every second
Against your cedarwood skin
Sleepily
But my mind won’t ease
I don’t want to leave
The incense of insomnia
I breathe
In again
Marking every second
Against your cedarwood skin

Delusional
I know in the deepest trench of my brain
This isn't real.
I know I shouldn't let this delusion run my mind
We are just
In seperate states
States of emotion
States of vaunerability
States of mental back and fourth
You clasp my heart
I hold yours
Keeping it in a lock box bubblewrapped double strapped
Soft to the touch
But hits me in the chest like freight train at full speed .
I don't want to live in reality
Diluted to delusions
This is where I want to stay .
This isn't real.
I know I shouldn't let this delusion run my mind
We are just
In seperate states
States of emotion
States of vaunerability
States of mental back and fourth
You clasp my heart
I hold yours
Keeping it in a lock box bubblewrapped double strapped
Soft to the touch
But hits me in the chest like freight train at full speed .
I don't want to live in reality
Diluted to delusions
This is where I want to stay .

Where I Lie
As I look up at the night sky, I see exactly where I lie.
Right there in the darkness, far away from all the lights.
Where the void is vast, and not a twinkle in sight.
I shiver outside in the cold, wondering the how and the why.
Refusing to think, that this was all just a lie.
I guess I am where I am, solely alone on this night.
Not a conversation to be had, but the one within my mind.
Slightly afraid, to figure out what it is that I'll find.
But I remain optimistic, that there is still a you and I.
Right there in the darkness, far away from all the lights.
Where the void is vast, and not a twinkle in sight.
I shiver outside in the cold, wondering the how and the why.

Baiting The Wind
She came as a cool autumn breeze, blowing about wildly and free.
Her presence touched every inch of me, from my head down to my feet.
She whispered in my ear, faint sounds that I could barely make out.
Other than the words I love you, that, I felt without a doubt.
She easily moved everything around me, from the tallest trees to the smallest blades of grass.
But it all stopped suddenly, so I sit here pondering and I ask,
"Where did my wind go? Why did it have to go by so fast?
I've contemplated plans of capture to perfection, baiting a kite for the next...

Ma & Papa Bears Embrace
In a world of love's embrace,
you stand,
Bound by hearts, hand in hand.
Mama bear, papa bear,
Your roles defined,
A union forged,
forever entwined.
From this moment,
you're journey takes flight,
A sacred vow,
bathed in pure delight.
Through life's trials,
you'll face them together,
Side by side,
in fair or stormy weather.
Now and forever,
your love will bloom,
Nurturing your souls,
dispelling all gloom.
In matrimony's embrace,
you both will find your way,
A love that...
you stand,
Bound by hearts, hand in hand.
Mama bear, papa bear,
Your roles defined,
A union forged,
forever entwined.

Waiting
You are
An itch that can never be scratched
A hunger that can never be sated
A thirst that can never be quenched
A craving to which there is no fix
Every moment of silence is excruciating
As if my heart has been torn from my chest
Carved with cruel intentions
An empty hole in its place
Hollow
Barren
The full weight of emptiness bearing down on me
Pinned in place and shackled to desire
A prisoner of love and a captive to passion
Yearning, longing, wanting, waiting ...
An itch that can never be scratched
A hunger that can never be sated
A thirst that can never be quenched
A craving to which there is no fix
Every moment of silence is excruciating
As if my heart has been torn from my chest
Carved with cruel intentions
An empty hole in its place
Hollow
Barren
The full weight of emptiness bearing down on me
Pinned in place and shackled to desire

The Brief Case: part 1
The sun shines
As the days
Go by
No word.
I stare at his brief case again
Unspoken memories
Played within
My mind
Memories I thought were long gone
The trip to the mountain
The dried petals
The pictures of how we fell
All I can think in this moment
“Come home my love”
As the days
Go by
No word.
I stare at his brief case again
Unspoken memories
Played within
My mind
Memories I thought were long gone
The trip to the mountain
The dried petals
The pictures of how we fell
All I can think in this moment
“Come home my love”

The Captain
Waves continued to make the ship sway
I remembered her face
Her smile that shines like stars
Hair that matched the sun
My voyage had just begun
“I’ll see you someday “
Or at least that’s what I said
Without actually knowing
If that day will come
Will I make it home
Or will I die alone
Out at sea
Without ever meeting my baby?
Another day,
Another wave
I’m going to make it
My love, I hope you can wait
Until the day
I can finally stay
I remembered her face
Her smile that shines like stars
Hair that matched the sun
My voyage had just begun
“I’ll see you someday “
Or at least that’s what I said
Without actually knowing
If that day will come
Will I make it home
Or will I die alone
Out at sea
Without ever meeting my baby?
Another day,
Another wave
I’m going to make it
My love, I hope you can wait
Until the day
I can finally stay

A Captain’s Wife
’l’ll be back someday”
At least that’s what he says
It’s been weeks
Since he left me
To follow his dream of being at sea
This light house gets cold
It’s wood floors creak and the stairs are old
I read to myself of stories I’ve been told
Thousands of times
I wonder what it’s like
Living out at sea
The days continue to go by,
I hardly remember our goodbye
The touch of his lips
The salty air
Freezing me out without a care
As I held him for one last embrace
I stared at his old brief case
The waves...

Thousands of times

Eclipse
A spark of electricity
Between us
Overwhelming the senses
Intertwined in a passionate embrace.
This is the dream.
This is the desire.
We see Fate's intention
Detrimental to us
Beneficial to all
We are the precipice of survival
You, the sun
I, the moon
Separated forevermore
But just once
Once in a thousand years
The yearning for connection ceases
A joining of such primal lust
And longing
Sated but for a moment
As our lonely souls sing sweet pain.
Yet the bitterness is back
No.
This...

Something in My Eye
I once again cannot deny
there is something in my eye
just a single tear
one shed for every lost year
With these promises made
kept cool in the shade
of a deliberate indifference
with its ambivalent insistence
For that is how it must look
to those outside this nook
outside the sleepy glen
where I wield my pen
Since I need nothing more
than the bold life of a troubadour
penning these lines of old
yet unwilling to be undersold
Following where my heart leads
while all the while my quill...

Traces in the Night
I keep rereading everything you write
all of these mere traces in the night
whispers I still cannot hear
a vast distance kept ever near
Wondering who you really are
are you close or forever far
from all that I might hold
on winter nights bone cold
Could you ever love the real me
not this one you think you see
the one who cries in her ink
every time she tries to blink
The girl so easily swayed
finding herself always played
by a poet with a good rhyme
left used and discarded each time ...
