whatever plans
tomorrow weaves
as refuge from my fear
surrender
never meant
to entertain
or be my solace
offered now –
where still I taste your name
haunting as the breath
you slipped away
. . .

I hated you
I hated me
places we were one
the way my body
listened –
times I should have run
wrapped in my uncertainty
injured by your words
I hated you
I hated me
as every dream unfurled
pages lost to pages
ink spilt blue
black
how may times
a window there –
while I was looking back
hopeful for another
prepared for one more
fight –
a jealous moon
I hated you
for finding me
each night
. . .

insee me here
a golden shard
of sun
a purple flame
an iris
spent with dew
wears no shame
in the ribbon
where forever
leans soft
into the light –
crickets sigh
as winter pines
bow down
see me
in the evening
when every life
is stilled
a slash of feathers
carving –
a presence
none can fill
see me a savior
a whisper
from the fall –
saved for love
as smoke to cloud
breath
as none
at all
. . .

save a place
between the pages
a spot where I might lie
a pillow for my rest
your heart
pressed against my thunder
heals a bitter storm
save a place
make a place
wherever you are home
remember only this
was all I needed
all I was
a place
a sweet embrace
against your calm
. . .

beyond this restlessness
I feel –
there lies with you
a solace
of solitude perceived
but few can say
how many times
your name was called
but not a sound was heard
as whispers of a songbird
never sang
if ever you should wonder
where on earth
I’ve come to be –
when given wings
which way the winds to blow
where were you
when I was lost –
to lay my body down
and begged your spirit
come –
as one to know
where to light
another night –
scattered thoughts to fade
flush the edges
first for one more time
as made for us
a place apart –
shall call this dreamer home
across a page
and given none to
rhyme
the same as then
you are at last –
my seasons soft returning
red and yellow leaves
as love to will
quiet as a Sunday morn
warm as July nights
if ever life is come
my breath to still
. . .

inI 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
. . .

seems I found
my way –
I been searching
o so long
never knew
it was this easy
as the words
from some sweet song
to listen
as my heart resounds
with echoes
from above –
whispers
please remember me
to the story
of your love

wandering
an ageless road
strung beneath the pines
daybreak floats
beneath a southern sky
a gentle breeze –
the scent of smoke –
a distant welcome home
remembering the way
I was –
the way I came
to know
. . .

I don’t recall the way
so weary –
or the sunset
quite this bright –
curtains drawn
to keep the world at bay
as ever still
tis loved and well –
as I am sure one truth remains
to satisfy this longing
within my heart’s
refrain
what of years
lay stretched behind
dusted now –
forgotten when
will come a dream awakened
o, what will matter then
