Blossoming..

Blossoming...




Love me 
just the way i am..
sunshine and tears 
quite the mess 
but not less than you hoped
or more than you dare..


I’ll quiet your fears 
irrational tears 
giving way to the atmosphere..
taking pieces that remain 
ghost or not 
we remain the same..


accepting our alien parts 
of the hearts
abundant, flourishing 
in ways to foretell..
we’ll learn love anew 
gradually growing 
the most beautiful bloom..

Indelible

the ink has dried
pages worn
edges weathered
so forlorn..
Wrapped your love around me like a chain
couldn’t withstand the hurricane..
Words indelible
quieting my heart..
unspoken things
between the lines
staining my soul..
with each moment they fade
making me whole..
closing the book
we are no more
between the beats of my heart
forever more..

Rooted..

solid strong our house won’t fall… bones are good changing with time like petrified wood… banged around chips hit the ground… melodic pain it’s worth the gain… we scatter but won’t shatter into pieces we don’t know… we built us well… time will tell

    Scorched

    searing 
    burning
    lighting my core 

    you cut
    twisting, turning 
    leaving no spot..
    the screaming in my soul it can’t be whole..
    I want to soar 
    touch the sky
    feel the sun 
    till I’m high..
    in my eyes you’d see the
    sunshine till it made you cry..
    if your wanderlust settled 
    you’d stay awhile..
    A tale we could tell 
    you’d know me well..

    the rain came..

    you chose to stay 
    chasing the sun until my heart you won
    clearing the melancholy 
    sharing the joy..
    the unknown looming 
    my eyes watching 
    pondering the beauty you bring to my heart..
    In the losses 
    the dark spaces 
    you continued to give..
    the rain came 
    each drop washing away the old..
    you didn’t run
    turning us around 
    we’ve begun…

    Perfected chaos

    The silent moments when the unknown roars

    unbearable is the pain

    certain nothings gained..

    silently walk with me

    enter the night

    let’s quiet the storm

    embrace the space between us that keeps me warm..

    It’s hard to find the sun

    in all that’s begun

    Chaos and perfection

    gnaw at my charred soul

    slow it down and face it

    let it make me whole..

    There is always beauty in the ugly truth

    ‘wherever you go

    there you are’

    More than the sum of all you see..

    The soundlessness has banished the critics that harness my soul..

    scars will bleed

    the disease of me will no longer be..

    the fears are silenced into the atmosphere..

    Reverie

    lost in ones delight

    Turn down the noise

    Turn down the light

    Take me back to the good ole days..

    Where ways made sense

    A daydream wasn’t a trance

    Your vision had reason-not just a hallucination..

    an impractical idea

    A fanciful thought

    Was what one sought..

    take me to the past

    where the good things last

    paint me a picture of long ago

    days of yore once more..

    Take flight..

    wings like stone

    jagged to the bone

    Cuts so deep

    how long will you steep..

    Something’s amiss within your soul

    What will it take to make you whole..

    Pieces of my heart stir with your words

    slicing and dicing until they’re not heard..

    An image that has left a permanent mark on my heart..

    You press me hard

    You press me soft

    It comes out the same

    Calling your name..

    Slowly unfold me

    Discover you don’t know me

    Clip those wings

    Set them free

    feel the melody they choose to sing..

    It will always be me

    It will always be you..

    Let’s wing our way through it

    Glide your way home how it should be..

    Take flight with me..

    shame storm quieted..

    Love me till the lights go out

    Love me till my shouts aren’t doubt

    let the love go quiet as I rise above

    in the darkest hour you shine bright

    your shadow overpowering me

    Pure delight..

    I can walk upright – shamed no more

    cobwebs have withered into dust

    my sight has been cleansed

    I will do what I must

    I’m not something wrong..

    I belong

    diseased by love

    the more i know

    the further i go

    sinking into that rabbit hole…

    It owns me

    dethrones me

    setting apart my heart

    Bleeding me through depleting what i knew..

    Part of me dies as i come alive..

    beautiful disease

    do what you please

    cure me from the rot that eats my heart..

    messy, chaotic, tangled and swept

    adversely affected is all that I’ve kept..

    Strange steps take us back

    The cinder beneath guiding our feet

    our minds go quiet

    While our hearts riot..

    in awe

    amazed, uncertain

    unsure

    of all that our mind had never heard..

    i hope this illness

    can heal us

    from all we’ve come to be

    You’ve chiseled me down

    I’ll wear this madness of you

    like a crown..
