ini’ve no plea
save one more dream
e’er you slept –
was i the star
that made of all
your wishes true –
that found you
here
remember
i’ve no fear –
my everything
is grounded in your
loving arms
the way my ache
became your lips –
as ageless once
this selfless
kiss
i’ve no words
no means to speak
of days before
or years to be
forgiven now
as we begin
the road to build
of memories
. . .

ina life
resurrected
for a moment like this
to find then of dreams
i survived
to remember my place
a smoldering flame
to recall
how your hand
fit with mine
a silence
made sweet
by the essence of voice
were so many things
left unsaid
flirts with my need
deserved of my touch
like a story
made over
one telling too much
i can dream
to remember
how it was just before
my window fell open
my heart
wanting more –
you were come
without wishing
hesitation forgot
to the way the world
curled
in my fingers

confession, life, love, realization, sometimes, surrender, time, understanding
this is the part
where longing makes sense
a sigh where my dreams
fall away
a name spoken softly
tho shadows can hear
what was saved
for this moment
from another
some day
this is the part
the part where i bend
a place where you lay
in my arms
for a while
trading secrets
for the promise of more
e’en now
there’s a warmth
at the tempt of my smile
i can’t be made
to surrender
. . .

what was left
of the creek
has turned into dust
(was here
i once held up the night)
was right here
beside you
covered with dew
assessing the stars
(wishes in flight)
was heaven this close
(i scarce can recall)
how sweet was your love
on my skin –
venus made nest
in a handful of curls
words seeking silence
again
(and again)
tell me once more
how swiftly the waves
to carry us far
from this place where we lay
how cool were
the oceans –
(created from dust)
to hold what was left
(to the story)
of us
. . .

for a moment
(or a lifetime)
I forgot the way to breathe
the means to speak
I can’t recall
my name
was there before
I heard you
(whisper
me to life)
your fingers on
my pulse
forever (one more
time)
as if it were the only
my name betrayed
your voice
(echoes) of my heart
trapped
beneath your skin
breathed
(a sigh forgotten)
save for this
. . .

how much of you
a part of me –
sands atop
the floor
as blossoms
where the trees have
burned away
how much of verse
is nothing more
than once
you were
and I
was counted back
in syllables
emptied to a page
folded to
a memory
the lineage of truth
someone said
tho I’ll be damned
if I remember why
the road
was less
the day you left
the sun no longer shines
to fill between
the whispers
rusted oak and flesh
how much I have
surrendered
was your breath
becoming mine
. . .

all I really know, in this now, life, love, redemption, surrender, trust, truth
had i more of verse
than consequence
an offer
much refined
more than just
one kiss
another me
was waiting
recognition –
in the shadow
of a smile
a lifetime resurrected
by will
of destinies
had i more to gift
– of everything
these arms could ever hold
fortunes
spent before
you came
for me
