I shall gather
to pages
these remnants of you
reminders now written
in rhyme
I shall paint
every moment
of days worn together –
warm cappucine
silver mine
sweet
my surrender
so often and still
when shadows are come
to do as they will
I will bind my heart
to words
we both know –
whispers carved deep
to my soul
. . .

easy as I, home, letting go, life, love, missing, poetry, that thing I do with a pen, time, touch
sometimes it hurts
to see me cry
but most nights I confess
tears are not for leaving
tho I am sorely pressed
to say goodbye
letting go
but for my heart
I might be gone
down the ways
a piece or more
beyond the reach of home
beyond the pull
of evermore –
the memory of touch
leaves are falling
storm clouds
into dust
. . .

when comes the end
and I’ve no reason
for keeping time
this way –
no choice of words
I might have said
given one more day
no space allowed
no higher road –
than this already run
when comes the dawn
I’m without rhyme
– verses
left undone
what then shall I
when without voice –
tell of love I knew
what words will I
surrender –
when I remember you

from time to time
I reminisce
o’er lines
I never wrote
truths I dared not share
tho no less true
longing spilled to pages
meant for gentle eyes –
an open heart
with space enough
for two
worthless rhyme
you know me now –
with nothing
left to say
poems stacked in boxes
cupboards tight
love betrayed to silence
grieves the dying word –
an empty page
and evermore
to write
. . .

I have not
permission –
this breath to allow
visions
how sweetly
they come to me now
when I had
forgotten
the warmth of your hands
– the touch
of your fingers
to mine
pages and pages
scattered by rhyme –
letters like leaves
falling down
love resurrected
from indigo blood –
thought
seldom spoken
aloud
. . .

let these words
embrace your soul –
as once before
goodbyes
I lived as moments
burning in your eyes
I knew of love
do not deceive
do not deny
tis so
where once I lived
within your heart
still now –
I long to go
. . .

foolish fall
of lust to line –
jealous need to write
perilous the pen
within the sanctity
of night
verses
left to meaning –
dare the heart to feel
words without dimension
for what is not
and what is real
. . .

there’s a place
beyond the dreaming –
a distance
not so far
beyond the pond –
beyond the oldest star
a place
become of verses
scripted unto skin –
whispers with
permission
to begin
as gifted
names to carry –
an almost sacred breath
forever
binds this fragile heart
to death
tis truth
tho somewhat fleeting –
as the measure
of a sigh
– promise
without cause
to wonder why

come
the first warm breeze
of summer
like snow upon my path
pages to the wind
I’ll never know
words i heard from somewhere
once within your arms –
a pounding of your song
against my soul
remember
lest I wish you
to another lullaby –
another dusk reflected
in your eyes
. . .

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
