grace, life, love, lyrics, shared surrenders, time, truth, words

gifted words
a solace immortal –
was a stranger’s voice
the heart of one I know
when lives are lived
indifference
spawns a world of second starts
wherever i am born
was in your arms
i died before
some other time
as longing spent
i promised to return
a whisper buried deep
beneath the bone
let me be
forgiven –
i never meant to go
allowing for a moment
not yet claimed –
words become
a memory –
love I’ve yet to squander
a heart that holds
directions home
my promised
evermore

. . .

a cup of all that mattered ~

alignment, another day, grace, light, love, reason, time, words

more than once
forever knew
i’d wait the morning after
with a trace of all that mattered
words already done
graces come
so easily
sometimes without regret
for choices
once at liberty to make
defending what was mine
to keep
failing what was not
the way before
seems different
in the light

. . .

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

. . .

tracing lives ~

heaven here, home, journey, life, love, nature, poet, rest, stars, time, words

all i want
of heaven
is the memory
of spring –
nights somewhere
we lay amid the stars
tracing lives
giving name
wherever flame
was found –
whispering our secrets
every promise
breathed
aloud

all i want
of evermore –
is a place to rest
my pen
fields of ancient flowers
fireflies
a story undecided
words no one has heard
moments we surrendered –
floating
far beyond
the night

. . .

uneven whispers ~

closer now to heaven than the stars, love, nature, promise, time, whispers, words

another day –
a current slower
than the years
have washed away
I used to wade
from here to heaven
seeking signs –
a cause to stay
for a lifetime
I was patient
pulling starlight
from my hair
came a night
you sought to dream
and found me there
a slower breath
uneven whispers
floating soft above
the foam
you were my
one consolation
when there was
nothing more
to know

. . .

wanting still for words ~

grace, grief, love, missing, remains, seasons, time, trust, words

what solace –
words
when grief
has stayed
to steal the warmth
from tender lips
was yesterday a prayer
a goodbye kiss
cold –
a sure reminder
of flame
where passions burned
into the sheets –
ashes now remain
who would blame
this heart to ache
these arms –
they tremble so
wanting still for words
that cannot warm –
that will not hold

. . .

forgiveness, graces we've forgotten, home, life, love, poet, truth, words

i write
and i worry
for pages on end
suffice to decide what words
might erase
i write when there’s nothing
i need to let go
but the jab of my pencil
parchment and coal
i write my forgiveness
before it is asked
and where you are now
unasking
i write and i whittle
nights to defend
so sure my thoughts would arrive
somewhere else
if left for a moment
hung o’er my page
awaiting a memory to come
i write in the places
i thought i would end
and pull up the margins
behind

i write

. . .

rhyme no longer worthy ~

inkstain, poet, poetry, reminders, time, truth, words

how much of me
is written –
to the rafters
of your heart
a purple painted
flower
faded now
what of words
I worried with –
were washed out
by the flood
letters set to sail
beyond your touch
what of ink
has stained your hands
worn your fingers blue
a rhyme
no longer worthy
but to curse
were there pages
still to ponder –
moments meant to keep
safe within the
memory
of verse

. . .

easy, poet, poetry, resurrection, still, time, truth, where I am found, words

let me be
let me write
of worlds not yet
discovered –
light where none exists
but for your eyes
let me see
eternity
is not so much
to barter
time is an illusion
let me wake
within the hush
of presence
moonlight haunting skin
let me fall
let me breathe
of worlds
where I am
found

. . .

unheard ~

courage, home, life, love, poetry, save for this, time, truth, words

give my path
a weight of sand
words
the grace of birds
anchored by a dreamer
ten thousand songs
unheard

carry me
where rivers grieve
moments not yet lost
give my heart
a boundless sea
desperate to cross

. . .
