ache, life, ove, poet, poetry, time, writing

how sure this fate
awaited –
from nights
i grieved your touch
would morning come
and i not know
to ache
would e’er my thoughts
be settled –
in cursive blocks
of blue
a book resolved
to wishing –
for a love i never knew
would feel this way
as everything
pressed against my page
a story still becoming –
what was dreamed
of yesterday

. . .

once before
i wrote
as if i knew
all the words
a pause between eternities
mine to press
against
and nothing
you could ever say
would make for me
the less
than worlds that formed
poems
in your eyes

. . .

how it was ~

destiny, life, love, poet, poetry, stars, time, waiting to begin

ignore
my resistance
to find you anew
– as sweet
was your voice
to favor my skin
to remember
where graces
fell through the night
like stars from orion –
this fate to defend
how it was
was it easy
was it ever that way
a morning so fragile
it took me
away
willed my returning
from a place not so far –
to find you here waiting
this moment
to start

how it was
was it easy
was it ever that way

. . .

forgotten to the rest ~

so much of me
is held between
the first i was
the last
seasons gone
another leaf to press
spinning once
i thought of you
and how it was you came
to render me
forgotten
to the rest

so much of me
was everything
and you
the one denied
oceans
seas
rivers
someone knew
before was i

you waited
my remembrance
of surrender
just this way
leaving every season
to confess
ages fell between
here am i
as once before –
take of me forever
take of me
the rest

unintended ~

life, love, poet, poetry, remembered, rhyme, truths, unintended, verse

words are offered
unyielding –
scrapped from pages
divine tho they be
moments
split open
and scattered
are gift to the soul
with comfort to seek
verses and
poetry
rhyme sometimes raw
as blood turned
to ink
by the page
by the fall
who will remember
how it was then
we wrote
without thinking
without feeling
at all
what was meant
unintended
as a line spoke aloud
as truth
we were hoping to breathe
who shall give voice
to some other
we were –
poetry left the heart
to receive

. . .

across and back this everafter ~

another me, life, love, memory, nature, poetry, seasons, soul, spirit, time, touch

had i nothing
but one more ache –
another poem come of this
ashes swirl beyond the meadow
leaves returning
a golden bliss

silence fills
an almost whisper
breezes brush the tallest pines
remembered not
to indecision –
other worlds where stars align

bid me go
or let me linger –
will this earthly heart to slow
across and back
this everafter –
is home to every
love i’ve known

. . .

words I wanted back ~

almost always, grace, life, love, poetry, still, trade for more, words


had i wishes
yet to squander
graces
mine to give
smiles without a reason
to concede
kisses left for ransom
give and give some more
half the cost of letting go
was every sigh
between
the place we fell
fate for trade
when nothing more was come
grief to stain my pillow
dig the hole
fill my heart with daggers
words i wanted back
to ease the hunger
building
in my soul

. . .

songs I cannot hear ~

carry me sweetly, knowledge, life, love, nature, poetry, silence, spirit, truth, understanding, what I know

are there songs
the swallow knows –
as breath against my ear
the poetry of doves
who can hear
a string of lines
only pines
are made to understand
notes beneath
the silences I fear

story yet unwritten
leaves
of yesterday –
moments stretched
to fill eternity
a touch
falls unnoticed
as wings upon the sea –
to find I never told you
what I whispered
to the breeze

are there words
I’ve still to ponder –
trapped beneath my skin
truths to breach the night
lest I pretend
there is nothing left
to make a noise
no feelings I can hide
songs I cannot hear
above the tide

. . .

predictions of a chill ~

acceptance, ache, boots, grace, love, permission to breathe, poet, poetry, seasons

she reminded him
of autumn –
the deepest dark of fall
a brittle ache
as broken leaves to swirl
breath to shame the summer
predictions of a chill
fingers wrapped
in mittens
prepared to tame
the world

boots
she never polished
for love of angst and leather
sweaters soft
passions to defend
every word she uttered
was redemption from the cold
restored from
angry winters –
by her need
to feel again

. . .

jaded ~

home, life, love, memory, poetry

this heart
it may be jaded –
these arms
tremble yet
fingers search in darkness
for your own
a moment
recreating –
the warmth that is your touch
a smile to learn –
a breath to bring me
home

these tired lungs
remember –
the crush of rivers cold
the curve
of ancient stones
beneath my skin
a time
absolved from passing –
cherished by the sea
from oceans
nearly empty
we begin
