were it mine
to offer
a future undefined
light
to ease the edges
of your night
had I wings
the ancient kind
to spread across the skies
might I hold you
captive then –
bound by this
desire
were it now
a life resumed –
come to steal my sleep
took the place
of memory –
burned within a dream
were we more
than once declared
a sigh beneath the timbers
arms still ache
with missing
my heart
was yours –
remember
. . .

back into loving arms, carry me home, circle of life, desire, divine truth, love, nature, seasons, spirit
I’ve been warned
there is a dreamer
rests beneath my collar bone
spends the night
curled beneath me –
a fiery furnace made of stone
sometimes words can resurrect us
from all we loved
all we know –
of the joys recalled in living
hand to heart
soul to soul
in the leaves
I hear the ocean
silent strumming on the shore
as I walk the beach at sunrise
I feel the trees like ne’er before
one remains
and one remembers
where is home
and what I keep
of the blessings that surround me
broken seashells
velvet leaves
. . .

another time
some other page
whereon the future falls
a fret to overwrite
the past undone
a silent seal
from all the rest
desire come to be
a life denied the living
carries me
. . .

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
. . .

within the silent
answers come
to prayers
I’ve near forgot
whispered
like a song
into these folds
became of need
but one desire
for love
as I am known
traces left
to grieve a heart
of stone
words are loosened
promises
– from all
they might have been
when proffered
by a moment
on my knees
