you could call it love
tho I might deem it something else –
an urgency shared
with an ancient moon
pressed into memory –
as evidence of fate
a need unresolved
longing so old
I’ve almost forgotten
how it feels
to be remembered
. . .

what of fate
could one life master
or one card played
impress the soul
with ways beyond –
this everafter
moments spared
not long ago
curs’ed vice
of indecision
which to choose
and which to let
become the proof
of resurrection –
restoring more than life
to death

from the still
words are fluttered
into life
key by key
come from silence
into something
more than voice –
much more
than me
poems spread
as bees to honey
moths to flame
I don’t know how
what am I
but a means becoming –
another life
is grace allowed
prophecy
or misplaced longing –
from the start
I can’t recall
where I was
when first I noticed
verses
without voice
at all
. . .

from this road
onto another
how we bend
how we lean
into a path so unfamiliar –
through the wooded
woods again
I can’t pretend
to know the reasons
why and where
the way becomes
a place we stood
some distant season
making plans
of a sweet unknown
giving heart
our soul’s permission
to write in verses
yet unseen
carving time into a promise
– to find again
the place
we dreamed
. . .

what soul
would I surrender
for another life to lose
– breath
when there is nothing left
what kiss
would I
refuse
what sorrows
meant to suffer –
for joy when others fail
a spark beyond
the dark –
beyond the veil
when asked
what would I give
what might I take if only one –
what dream of mine
will linger
will linger
when I’m gone
. . .

I remember
distant summers
by the creek
beyond the fence
I loved
the feel of falling –
the crush of stars
against my skin
some nights
the eastern sky
comes aflame with strange
blue light
yet so clear
as though a river
took to flying
. . .

for every tear
some blessing still
comfort in the dark
memories
too light
for weigh me down
names not soon forgotten
taste the same
upon my tongue
never less than once
I was
before the day you came
the heart of me
resounding
(just as sweet – the same)
contrary yes –
tho made the more
for ways in which I go…
the best of love
becoming part
of all the girl
you know
. . .

I know this path
familiar
unfamiliar
as the river
that scores my hand
the knowing prophesy
of life
and all that love
imagines us
into being
I know these blossoms
they are friends of mine
names I’ve misplaced
times
that left me wanting
empty for a drink
of remember
I know this way
as once I lingered
somewhere else
another me
was here the same
tho not made wise
by the memory
of love
we carried
. . .

in the hush
before a star becomes
a path across the sky
before our wish is fated
to come true
remember how it was
to count them all
to speak their names
one by one
a trillion lights
come for me
and you
as simple then
the way recalled
tho now it all seems strained
to recognize the wealth
beside the gold
to see the truth
when all the rest
is bent to break us down
forgotten
what the heart
was meant to hold
. . .

a thousand years
returning
another to endure
as twilight burned –
I can’t say for sure
whether I was yours
or you became
mine but for a night
a dream displaced
long before
daylight
before the plead
of morning
the rush of words to skin
was it the same
I knew you
as you knew me
then
you were there
when love became
the deepest want of all
– another life
beyond the
night birds call
whispered
into shadow –
the promise of goodbye
a thousand lives
surrendered
to a sigh
. . .
