pictures scattered about
tattered edges worn out..
days of old
depicting moments filled with hope..
memories golden
hearts of steel
sweet dreams
somehow torn apart at the seams..
sweet and heady
made me feel unsteady
It’s okay you know
to rid your mind of all of me..
but keep the photos
it’s all that’s left
One day
time will be fine
it won’t claw at your heart..
I’ll never be gone
the footnote of us lives on..
surrender to new starts
let the clouds part..
black and blue
bruised by you
pounded by intense love..
look how we’ve grown
a parade of shades
coloring me up
in brightest of hues
I never knew..
wearing you is something so true
the link to my golden chain
worth all the rain
every step
every turn
every lesson learned
We are worth it all..
laying it down
we turned it around
closing up walls that bound us
to the halls of moments past..
I took a chance
lost in your dance
spinning round and round..
my feet hit the ground
I found myself open
freely believing in me..
Unreserved in my love for you
set me on a path I could never see..
tearing the skin off my bones
leaving the mess of me behind
I found my home..
step into a world
they say
where you can be what you’re not..
the hype of the dreams
not what it seems..
they sold you
to the lies they told you
words rolling easily off the tongue
fingers outstretched
so it’s begun..
what is the fun
in being who you aren’t
rivalries will own you
it’s all for naught..
the chasm is real
the fall never ends
no one to rescue you
from all of your ills
It’s wearing exhausting
where are the thrills..
step back in time
take back your mind
to a world
where the silver lining is as it’s told
no one can stop you from
living life bold..
my heart is inclined to listen
your words sing a song
embracing my space
syncing with the beat of my core
unique intense beautiful
my ears hear no more..
covering my skin
absorbing you whole
filling me within..
anticipate
imagine
the extent of all to be..
close your eyes
take my hands
feel the encounter of beyond..
the rhythm moving your heart
Unable to measure this love
like the stars from above..
scorched so many times
by flames that called our names
hard to see beyond life’s moments
so called games..
misshapen, mistaken
nothing remains the same..
willing to be interrupted
restless souls cry out in vain
searching hoping believing
in darkness that brings rain..
moody
romantic
silence
Is loud in the room
quiet walls sing of love
dispelling any gloom..
let the fire roar
no longer keeping score
walking through it fearlessly
helpless never more..
freeing
hopeful
a willing human being..
open
molding to new unspoken dreams
goals unfold
as we behold
new heights to be reached..
shed your skin
begin again
it’s quite the place to sit in..
eyes have closed doors
shifting the mind
leaving dashed moments behind
buried on the floor..
memories restored
veil is lifted
untouched gifts galore
pick them up
and want no more..
moments that beg for a bend in the road
causing disruptions
stories of old..
the living fabric of us woven into the core of time
indefinite existence
seen through the glass parade..
words stuck in my throat
the world will never know
conversations that would ripen your heart
begging to be told..
think I’m going home
getting lost for awhile
because I still believe
just a voice inside my head..
can you hear it
the quiet that can’t be stilled..
your silence
enters my soul
screaming out of control..
as pain and joy are tethered together
so is our love
you fill the creases of my everyday pages with hope..
the essence of you wafting gently takes hold of my senses..
life maker
heart changer
giving life to dry bones
you are my hope lost
a love that knows no bounds..
I lust for life and
moments time can’t erase..
feeling free
boundless feet
Soaking up the good
within the earth’s folds..
Sun is shining its’ warmth
inviting all to bask in its’ glow
don’t know the endless possibilities this day holds..
the days may number me
with the moments that unfold
challenges that abound
won’t turn me around..
I see my worth
I know my goals..
