remember me yours ~

would that i grieve
the weight of your voice
the warmth of the sun
in your smile
a breeze of breath
recalled to a sigh
moments
where promise we left
wherever tomorrow
remembers me yours
as rain from the roof
falling down
as sunlight spilt
even now by the barn
and carved
through the pines
a careless goodbye
was never intended
the way
turning home
forgotten how sweet
to arrive

. . .

sacred divine
moments made over
left with a note
by the gate
tell me again
how long you are leaving
how near
to returning
this missing of late
like promise
made real
as everything
somewhere
out past the creek
rolling in green
remember me now
a vow of surrender
aligned me with stars
with wishes unseen
caught in my hair
do you remember
me now
some sacred divine
with permission
to stay
a lifetime to prove
as a matter of fate
write me a letter
tell me a story
how long are you leaving
how much more
shall i wait

beyond the pull
of northern lights
a roll of sacred tongue
reminds me now
how far from birth
another birth is come
to take me in
to lift me up
when i’d forgotten how
it felt to love
it felt to fly –
this destiny allowed
with arms to save
from all that was –
tis you
where i belong
tho nights were lost
to slumber –
was for this
i waited on

i hear the rain
before i know
day is nearly come
somewhere
beyond the shadows –
another sun

i hear your breath
above the strain
of raindrops
on the roof
warmth to fill this moment –

where you are me
and i am you

i know this song
ten thousand birds –
words you taught me well
a melody of memories
mysteries
for sale

i feel the rain
i need your touch
a gathering of wings
fulfill my need
for heaven –
for light
the morning brings

surely one ~

for another day
let us be –
lest some other
breath become
of memories refined
a place beyond the sun
where morning wakes
the night
remits
with destinies to grieve
as one
most surely one
our faults to ease
for another touch
every word
suffers my surrender
no way for getting back
for getting home
come this sweet permission
to take
please take of mine
to spare our love –
the only truth
i know

. . .

when i’ve forgotten
where we were
before we knew of us –
wherever hurts
are given time to heal
when i’ve let of each
eternity
scatter to the floor
the ache within my breast –
your voice above
the still

when i’ve forgotten
times before
your breath condensed
with mine
the way your fingers
fell against
my soul
an echo of a promise
bouncing softly
off my skin
the way you speak my name
to bring me home

. . .

when you have gone ~

when my love
has failed to honor
everything you are to me
when my heart
is blind
my voice
a distant gale
when my touch
no longer lingers
would to satisfy
your want
will i see the signs
will i know
when you have gone

when my love
has failed to notice –
all that you are
still
when longing fades
my arms
grow weak
beneath the strain of us
tell me
o please tell me
help me find my way
hold for me some other –
a place
our love remains

. . .

whispers of remember ~

Tags

chisel me
forever
set your name with mine
beneath an evening
spread
of ancient pines
beneath a sky
of almost black –
wings against the dark
whispers of remember
– fathers
taking flight

carve me
into maple –
my soul to golden oak
swear me not a page
where i might stay
counter to a memory
how would i compare
as one so sweet –
to steal my heart
away

. . .
