whatever words
you hold of mine
suffering to bear
confessions of a saint
– deepest praise

recompense
for shadows –
dancing on the wall
whispers of surrender
falling now

verse to bind
rhyme to waste –
the place
where love begins
witness to a sigh –
breath becoming
skin

whatever words
you keep of mine –
whatever fate is come
stretched to span
eternity –
saved for us
the one

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

. . .

from the start ~

grace, home, life, love, memory, poetry, sometimes, truth

how many words
were wasted
in the rush
to get them down
rhyme i thought would save me
never did

years disturbing pages
awaiting verse
to come
poetry –
i knew you from the start

the way you traded
syllables
passions understood
as story memorized –
please tell me
now

where each pause is fitted
a place to hold
it all
the way to feel
everything –
words before the fall

how was i to recognize
your beat
within my own
rhyme i chose
ten thousand lines
ago

Author’s Note: I may be the poet, but you – you are the poem ❤

not so far ~

an hour away, grace, heaven here, life, love, nature, time


another day
hours –
and somewhere
not so far –
water rushes
wild above the stones
wings are dipped
mercy me
into a swirling tide
your hand to hold
eternity –
and I am
nearly gone

. . .

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

. . .

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

. . .

all for this ~

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

. . .

far from this beginning ~

grace, home, life, love, patience, time, truth, understanding, waiting

had i waited
this
a moment more
than twilight turning red
had i listened
as night birds
drew their sighs
had i known
that heaven makes a place
near enough to breathe
to understand
the depths
where love can be
had i traded
every sorrow
when my grief was newly formed
had i bled of tears
a canyon of restraint
had i known before
you would come
to save of me the best
so far from
this beginning
would i wait

. . .

that i love ~

had i the words
more i could say
that would break to your heart
the ways that i love
the ways
i would travel
ten thousand years more
to lay by your side
in the dirt

. . .

shades of remember ~

divine truth, grace, in another life, love, memory, returning home

twilight falls soft
in shades of remember
charcoal and pitch
as the day
i was born
drifted a ways
with nothing to tether
silences sweet
as a breath
wrapped around
was destiny left
in the arms of a stranger
a night you lay claim
some other to prove
blind to the danger
grievance
in falling ~
unaware of the journey
stars burning
through
gathering moondust
pools on the pasture
shimmering drops
of promise divine
cured of the heartbreak
heaven returning
to save what was waited ~
this moment
to find

. . .
