come to me
one more time
with scarlet suns and meadows blue
places fair
I move between
as every path returns to you
with questions why
tho who can say –
what remains
of what shall be
familiar song I sang for you
as empty arms
remembered me
shall I return
(you know I will)
as sure the orchids fade to gray
along the wood
where once we loved –
longing bears the rest
away
. . .

from the silken green
of sleeping –
a night where stars are freed
swimming where your eyes
were met with mine
trading lace and story
for another
other time
witness to my pleading
come to me –
let my heart be broken
I won’t grieve
for lives between
tis only this –
reminding me of home
leave your box
of letters
just outside my door
teach me how to fly
let me fall
stay the night
stay til morning –
breathe my name aloud
as trade for one more kiss
a flannel dream
keep within your promise
heaven e’er you wake
beyond this night
of waiting –
come to me
. . .

all I really know, becoming, life, love, memory, season, time, truth, what we keep
was not for me
yet all for me
the first
my last amen
names
so long forsaken
rise again
as psalms
before a jubilee
as rites to ashes fall
surrendered now
as pardon
unto grace
in moments
left for living –
of blessings yet to reap
as winters fall
to memory
of everything
I keep
. . .

who will grieve
my going
who will make the bed –
or worry for a season
to things I should
have said
who will speak
my name aloud –
o’er rivers deep and cold
in places not yet written
to my soul
with promise cleft
by secrets sworn
beneath a jealous moon –
when first I died
ten thousand deaths
for you
who will weep
who will pray –
for moments almost come
for sunlight
where the night has been
for stars who mourn
alone
. . .

what power
love
o’er everything ~
intention of the soul
remembers now
eternity ~
a place beyond
our own
truth denied
the breaking down
grace
of giving more
where love was offered
we remain ~
though different
than before
when from the shadows
we emerged
whole
into the light
were destiny a season
come ~
made sweeter
by the night
. . .

leave me to home
as destined you found me
bound by a breath
to another man’s dream
to stars not betrayed ~
a journey unfolding
as warmth
without reason ~
evening of light
where shadows
lay stilled by the promise
of someday
by the fluttering sense
that forever
was come
. . .

how far
til I’ve wandered
another one day
to wade in the snow
moments true
weary from missing
make me the way
was it here
that I waited
your once passing through
as easy as breathing
was mystery mine
roads leading back
to remember
this time
. . .
