rivers
where tears began
carried from the fall
fearless as a mountain –
longing
for the sea
resurrected moments
wherever fates are stored –
was here I found
the life you left
for me

it’s not the same
this missing
in places last you loved
a heart where only echoes
now remain
as proof of distant summers
a kiss
for waiting on –
I swear sometimes
all I know
is rain

. . .

once upon ~

was once
upon a time
a princess i
waiting still
the stars to drift
beyond
worry not yet
witness
to the slamming
of a door
a long goodbye
a kiss denied to light
save me this
surrender
take my everything
speak if only once
a yesterday
wherein my name
was written
near enough to yours
heart that swore
to stay
until I wept

. . .

embrace of destinies ~

how sweet
the edges blur –
where will has congregated
where some other me
a younger me
worries for the touch
would resurrect
a universe –
recreate a flame
where stars align
tho not yet given name
the warm embrace
of destinies
remains within my dreams
springs where blossoms
weave their way
to mine

. . .

catch afire ~

was paradise
a Tuesday
I fell into your eyes
a fleeting thought –
let me go
back into the light

how far
a distant
coming home –
to find I love you
still
with longing
so familiar
arms to fill

for this –
ten thousand yesterdays
were tempered by desire
words
I thought forgotten –
catch my soul
afire

. . .

another come for me ~

I shall wait
beyond the silent
empty places
I am found –
for the resurrected moment
you return
as daybreak
thru my windows –
a voice within the dark
tis there
this dreamer dreams
we are one
I shall wait
the revelation –
as starlings taking flight
a touch without salvation
to defend
I will linger
as a promise
of some other come for me
a poet without cause
or destiny
I shall wait
the morning after
wherever hope is stored
trusting light
to find the light
in love
we knew
before

. . .

pieces left of home ~

when war is come
and I have prayed
the fathers intervene
to carve a crystal fountain
from the seas
healing hearts
and easing every memory
of loss –
taking back of hurts
we fell between

as tears aligned
with rumor –
sons by sons are grieved
a disillusioned truth
returned as stone
I will sit the night
every night
until the end becomes
a place to start
with pieces left
of home

. . .

rhyme no longer worthy ~

how much of me
is written –
to the rafters
of your heart
a purple painted
flower
faded now
what of words
I worried with –
were washed out
by the flood
letters set to sail
beyond your touch
what of ink
has stained your hands
worn your fingers blue
a rhyme
no longer worthy
but to curse
were there pages
still to ponder –
moments meant to keep
safe within the
memory
of verse

. . .
