another life forgave ~

grace, home, life, love, mystery, name, trust

steal from me
this willing heart
with nothing but your sigh –
touch i kept
one sunday afternoon
we talked about
forever –
another life forgave
held your hand
and counted back the ways
remember how it is
how it feels
to understand
some paths are come
to show us
what is real –
plagued by time
tangled in a memory
of flame
remember how it was
to lean into
an easy trust –
a breath to find redemption
in a name

. . .

differences i knew ~

answers, blessings, home, life, love, prayers, time, truth

what prayer
was spilled into the night –
a wish upon a star
sufficient
now to bless me
were love –
the way we are
the way life feels
as sure it must
when heaven calls to be
across the waves –
echoes given wing
this heart to heal
my soul to plead
differences i knew
would come to me
one winter
when i had prayed
for you
memories to garner
touch to find me
now
ages to remember love –
arms to reach
around

. . .

memory of words ~

assurance, destiny, life, longing, love, promise, will, words

were there a means
for understanding
some longing
to discern
a place for every hurt
i leave behind –
breath becoming more
than just the memory
of words
a moment you were falling
into my
eternal rhyme

and i remember
what it took to find
you here –
to get you home
tethered to a promise
whispered
soft against the night –
reminders
of the only thing i know
to resurrect
love to get us back
where we
belong

. . .

how it was ~

destiny, life, love, poet, poetry, stars, time, waiting to begin

ignore
my resistance
to find you anew
– as sweet
was your voice
to favor my skin
to remember
where graces
fell through the night
like stars from orion –
this fate to defend
how it was
was it easy
was it ever that way
a morning so fragile
it took me
away
willed my returning
from a place not so far –
to find you here waiting
this moment
to start

how it was
was it easy
was it ever that way

. . .

one telling too much ~

grace, knowing, life, lov, story, surrender, time, truth, voice, writing in the dark

a life
resurrected
for a moment like this
to find then of dreams
i survived
to remember my place
a smoldering flame
to recall
how your hand
fit with mine
a silence
made sweet
by the essence of voice
were so many things
left unsaid
flirts with my need
deserved of my touch
like a story
made over
one telling too much
i can dream
to remember
how it was just before
my window fell open
my heart
wanting more –
you were come
without wishing
hesitation forgot
to the way the world
curled
in my fingers

. . .

for nothing ~

a place we begin, breath, home, life, love, today, words, writing

i want for nothing
much more than this
the way the light
falls all around
as silence sits back
undecided by death
and cold as the day
it surrendered
this heart
i wait
undisturbed
by the fear of goodbye
boards shifting
somewhere outside
i wait with the dishes
i thought not to move
a cigarette
touched out of habit
one night
i want for nothing
but your hand caught with mine
the curve of my name
on your lips
the rush of your breathing
tangled
divine

the way the light falls
all around

. . .

all for this ~

alignment, grace, home, life, love, road, truth, understanding


wherever you
my home is found
nestled in your love –
apart from all
e’en silence
cannot share
where you have been
i have wandered
back into
your grace
into the place
forgotten
now the ways
to understand
wherever bliss
some other life –
ancient stars to plan
where i was before
i only know
was ever all
for this

. . .

the notion of fate ~

fate, heart and soul, let me in, life, love, time, truth, valentines day

eyes the color
of molasses
destiny
come late
with summer dreams
a wish
clearly spoken
when the sun was high –
a slave to the notion
of fate

‘what would you like to do today’

‘only this’

‘only this’

Happy Valentines Day

❤

breath where mine was stolen ~

graces, home, life, love, memory, one more day, sometimes, time, truth

had i time
enough
to make the best –
years beyond these rings
a moment undecided
by the way
the nightbird sings
a road too long
to get me back –
a broken stand
of pines
had i days
to resurrect –
one more morning
to ascribe
breath where mine
was stolen
i remember
had i grace
to give in trade –
an evermore
to save
would my pleasure come
in counting
every kiss where
we align
would i wait
another day
to make you
mine

. . .

where memory hides ~

breath, found again, home, love, memory, redemption, tars, time, trust

in the breath
where memory hides
you are there
on sundays
when the paper comes
as i lean into the light
where first you arrived
warmth on my face –
my need
to embrace
whatever is come
whatever is made
of us
when the reasons
all fall away
my smile can no longer
suffer the ache
to know where you stood
at the edge
of one day
at the fringe
where darkness
covered in light –
awaited my breath
to return
