strange duet
sweeter still
sing with me
play with me
let my tune wrap your heart..
hear my voice as I call your name
the in between holds the beauty
we seek to gain..
feel the angel wings holding us tightly, gently - with tender care
intimacy overpowering the fear
and we dare to sing loudly
like never before..
invisible wounds
Scars that dig in deep
I carry them within
a battle that never ends..
hopeful yet struggling
Hold me tight
I won’t give in to the fright..
immersed in the beauty
that keeps
giving
reaching out
calling me
Drawing me
To a new light
an atmosphere so bright
I’m no longer buried alive..
there was no start
I see no end
wrapped in time
yours and mine..
do I go
trusting the unknown
do I stay
showing you the way..
frayed edges
parched souls
ruling us no more..
thoughts and hearts attentive
like never before
setting us free to roam
into the heart of our home..
no other way
you are my known..
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..
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..
Love
it’s equal to the pain
most treasured hurt
so much to gain..
who could know
how much I’d change
the moment you said hello..
As I fade away
the picture is clear -
naked and afraid
I’m coming home..
Its’ warmth and
love stained walls
welcome me in
Tasting the sweetness
more alive than I’ve ever been
standing tall I begin..
