Calligraphy of Love

/

...in your embrace

Arms wrapped about my hips

Your name falls incoherently

From my parted lips

All other existence dissolved

As irrelevant and moot

As I wait in a frenzied state

For you to fervidly take root

Basked in the moon's glow

Breaching the window panes

Our bodies match in rhythm

As it waxes and wanes

There could be no more exquisite

Echo in time

Than love's calligraphy flowing

Around my every curve...

Plot Twist

/

…one he tried to save when our souls started to fade,

Fade so far into the unknown

Some times I wonder,

If I should have gone into the dark?

Sometimes I think of the things I would have seen and the darkness,

Oh how that silken touch still lingers on my soul,

But how should I speak of the things I dream?

When I am at the side of a man so powerful he gave his heart to hold the bond that ties our souls together,

But that taste of pure fire was all I needed to cut through years…

Smoke vanishes into the ceiling

/

…men children wives and the hand full of crazies,

None of whom are crazy enough to be wake at 4:30 am

Soon you will be standing over a drill, pummeling concrete, sitting on a plank of wood, eating an early lunch at 10:30

You will make small talk with the other men, men, who wiping sweat from their brow inform you of the 250 dollars they won on the Cowboys last night, or how their wife’s grandmother past away leaving only a collection of ceramic kittens,

The luck, it seems, favors chance over all else, weirdly distributed, handed…

Over, And Over Again

/

…broken my heart
A gazillion times
With every breath I take
It starts all over...
Every day...
The moment that I wake

You are my soul...
You're in my heart...
Wherever you may be
But every morning
Again and again
It breaks that you're not here
With me

Over and over
How can I live
When it breaks repeatedly
Tell me, again
And again...and again
It's because you're in love
With …

Higgs-Boson Caress

…because I feel your energy and see your vibration, of so many colors.

There we are playing the game of 'tug of war,' who is able to pull the other over the fine line that divides us. Will that be you or me?!

The love that I feel and the desire that is with me also changes my colors, do you look at me in awe understanding how close we really are? Like the particles of those colors we are dancing with so many others we are blinded by the beauty we see.

Moving at the speed of light into…

The Luna Moth

/

…flies through the night,

They beat soothing rhythms as she weaves left and right.

They are shaped from the tears of a maiden in love,

And drenched with compassion from angels above.

Her voice like the wind sings of sadness and sorrow,

As she hunts for some pain she could steal or could borrow.

The hum of her tongue as she licks the cool air,

Tells where to find those in peril or despair.

The silvery eyes embossed on her wings,

Shows where to look for regrets that life brings.

She seeks out regret to replace with hope,

So those…

Cry Of The Banshee

/

…howled fiercely

On the cold winter night

The frenzied rain pitted

Windows, shut tight

Thunder and lightening

Crashed and streaked

Closed eyes tried to hide

From the banshee-speak

Moonlight was captured

Trees swayed to escape

Leaves and debris

Littered the landscape

The mighty darkness roared

Across the desolate beach

Yet was no clever match

To the …

The Juncture

/

…the dreams of happiness

To ever go astray

And with the days that ended

As you laid down in the bed

Thoughts of beautiful days to come

Filled your weary head

Sometimes those days

Came bounding in

Mostly, they did not

But when they did you relished them

The others you forgot

Now looking back on all those years

It’s hard to pinpoint when

Unhappiness and vexation

Burrow beneath your skin

And now you stand at the precipice

That's crazy to have to say

Where now it’s time that you decide

What you should do today

At any rate it's…

~Silence

/

…in my head are acting up again and I can't take it anymore,

Can I have some silence?

It's all I want for my mind is a mess with hollow thoughts,

Thoughts of death,

And of life,

Thoughts of sights unseen by the modern eye,

Can I have some silence?

My head hurts from all the noise,

Noise of the forgotten screaming out their names for some one to hear,

The fallen ones scream etched into the hollow walls of our minds,

Walls we built too high and now we cry because no one can climb over,

Can I have…

The Promise

/

…to your house

And knocked on your door

My breathing was heavy

My gaze on the floor

♥I was feeling uneasy

Didn’t know what to expect

But you pulled me in closely

And tenderly kissed my neck

♥Tingles and shivers

Ran down my spine

The taste of your lips

So sweetly divine

♥You took my coat

And set it aside

Excitement now surges

As our bodies collide

♥You whispered softly

Into my ear

All those sweet nothings

I long to hear

♥It was pure passion

Completely laid bare

Electrified energy

Crackled the air

♥We shared happy laughter

I basked in…
