all I really know, dreams, life, love, moments, seasons, soul memory, spirit, time, what we keep
forsaken now
the breach of days –
the breath of years gone by
these hands
where eager dreams
were laid –
with ne’er a wonder
why
how is it
I’ve forgotten
how I knew –
for love we came
tis all I’ve kept
of living –
but for chance
to feel the same
. . .

in this moment
I remember
everything I came to know
the way the rivers
gather to the sea –
the measure of a rainbow
bending soft against
the sand –
a miracle
still happening
to me
I remember
every kiss –
every touch was ever mine
the echo of my name
within the dark
a rush of swallows sailing –
blind within their faith
breathing out the song
that is
my heart
I remember how it was
that first bloom within the snow
searching for a reason –
for a season
not to go
living scattered sweetly
across ten thousand years
I remember
every lifetime –
I would wait
to find you here
. . .

dare I wake
the memory –
was just a dream away
so real
my body trembles
in its wake
lest I break apart
with want for more
than air
when stumbled
on the day –
and you’re not
there
dare the sun
another rise –
the stars
a deeper sky
dare the moon
be jealous
of the night
. . .

how many nights
far too many
beyond my need for sleep
drifting in and out
of slumber –
miles to go
with none to keep
songs are playing
I can hear them –
near enough to wake the soul
verses sweet
in recollection
move my weary heart
to fold
ill regard
for lifetimes bartered –
on this crazy dream
of mine
how many sunsets
unremembered
will I find
will I find
. . .

there’s an field
beyond our seeking –
a place where we belong
the life we dreamed
no less
for living
another one
there’s a want
beyond the waking –
of winter wheat
and purple sword
where longing flows
the sweetest honey –
yet not
with words
there’s a silence
to all that matters
lest we grieve
for signs we missed
a truth we cannot speak of –
a promise
or a kiss
there’s a moment
I’ve heard tell –
blinding sunlight
of time displaced –
where love begins again
as always
from a memory
retraced
. . .

you could call it love
tho I might deem it something else –
an urgency shared
with an ancient moon
pressed into memory –
as evidence of fate
a need unresolved
longing so old
I’ve almost forgotten
how it feels
to be remembered
. . .

for every tear
some blessing still
comfort in the dark
memories
too light
for weigh me down
names not soon forgotten
taste the same
upon my tongue
never less than once
I was
before the day you came
the heart of me
resounding
(just as sweet – the same)
contrary yes –
tho made the more
for ways in which I go…
the best of love
becoming part
of all the girl
you know
. . .

a thousand years
returning
another to endure
as twilight burned –
I can’t say for sure
whether I was yours
or you became
mine but for a night
a dream displaced
long before
daylight
before the plead
of morning
the rush of words to skin
was it the same
I knew you
as you knew me
then
you were there
when love became
the deepest want of all
– another life
beyond the
night birds call
whispered
into shadow –
the promise of goodbye
a thousand lives
surrendered
to a sigh
. . .

when first you knew
to touch me here
I was helpless
to resist
did you realize
when you closed my eyes
as barter
for a kiss
did you name the stars
for nights like this
or wonder
for lives between
renewed to find
the way we came –
to be
what love would be
. . .

home, life, lifetimes remembered, light, love, memory, nature, returning, soul work, spirit, story, writing in the dark
make me a home
at the heart of your longing
near to the place
muscle meets bone
share me a haven
of ten thousand windows
light pouring rivers of crimson and gold
make this an always
born of all others –
lifetimes of nothing but loving you so
make me your memory
a light to the shadow
as dawn through the cedars –
all that you know
