If you ever think something is off with us
Know that I love you
If you ever think I’m upset with you
I love you
If you ever wonder if I’m okay
I love you
If my smile seems to drag a bit
I love you
If you ever wonder if we’re still friends
I love you
You are a light in my life
One that I will never take for granted
Something to always treasure
I love you forever

Get up off the ground
Don’t make me drag you around
One way or the other
You’re coming with me
Get up off the ground
Love me or hate me
You will never forget me
But I hope that you will love me and say
Thank you for being my grace
Thank you for loving my face
At the end of the tunnel
There is a light
I know it looks really bright
But there is actually darkness on
The other side
Trust me even when your blinded
By this unpredictable life
I will not leave you behind
I am your castle I am your rock
In these sands of time
I am yours and you are mine
Everything will fade away someday
But I will be here anyway
The earth moves things around
Unsettles the ground we pave
Reminding us that we can’t
All be happy at the same time
I am always here for you

While you talk about the woman
Who’s makeup isn’t on quite right
Do you know how hard it was
To show her face today in light?
Pull herself out of her bed
Tuck herself in late at night?
The best that she could do
Is amazing in my eyes
Thank you for showing up
Today my dear
Thank you for sharing
Your sweet smile
Thank you for taking time
To share your light
With us
You’re so inspiring

To say it
This is difficult
My blood is thick with love
Your about as convincing
As a rattlesnake
That has been taught how to purr
I wish you
All the torches
Of the underworld
And beyond
Yet I also wish you love
To see your way through there
Snowflakes in hell
My headless horseman
Thoughtless choices
You’re such a paragon
Of sanctity and
Sarcasm
If you need to prove
Your power
Please do it
Somewhere else
And the words you choose
They loose all their
Momentum
Expensive suit
Authentic boot
Materials don’t matter
It’s what you do
Actions speak louder
Than your words
Interesting
For instance is a word
That one would use
To describe
An awful tie
That somehow
Ended up in a box
On Christmas Day
But still I say
I wish you peace
I wish you joy
I wish you happiness
And more
And most of all
I wish you legions of pure love
Oceans of hearts upon your shore
I wish you love
Like you have never felt before

My grandma Rose
May have died
But she’s really still alive
Still here on earth
Still breathing out
In her own way
Inside my heart
I wish the Universe
Could say
Not at this time
This one’s not mine
But her hands were needed
For gardening the skies
Expressing thoughts
In clouds floating by
Propagating love
It makes no sense
How I could be
Here on earth without you
Experiencing life
When life has always been
About you
Honest intention
Simple truth
Big imagination
It seems impossible
That I could be zoetic
Waking everyday
Without your words prophetic
Without your physical presence
And yet I’m here building
The life I never
Thought that I could build
Which tells me that
Your essence is
Completely
All around me
Your blood is light
I could never do this
Without you…
Yes even roses die
But they return
Nature is unending
As is your spirit
Climbing through
The concrete cracks
Your love is sending
Me the messages I need
In every step
In every day
I know without a doubt
Your heart is always with me

Will you be my love?
We only have one life
With these eyes to see
What we want to see
What do you want to see?
Will you share my heart?
Love what we want to love
Live how we want to live
Be what we want to be
Unforgettably
Prospect of a blue sky
Plunging towards love
No greater downfall hath love
Than to have no love at all
With you
© GÄ
I ponder on the days
When I will no longer
Look at my body
In the mirror
I will see my spirit
Reflecting in a pool of energy
And it will not reflect skin but light
And I will not see a mirror but a star
Echoing frequencies in my mind
That resound in the color
Of love

I am the eagle
That has fallen
In the front lawn
Of some innocent observer
With one working wing
A beautiful display
An ornate wingspan
But do not try and make me
A trophy or a treasure
For your den to display
When a single golden tear
Falls from my eye
A sun cry
It is in this very moment
That I find I’m still alive
And as I try
Test my breadth
Ask myself to fly
Yes even with one wing
You can feel my
Heartbeat
Fluttering
As my beak
Meets your beak
Static shock
Aviary energy
We could be nesting
But instead of resting
I’ll be the eagle
That has fallen
On the front lawn
Of your home
It could be anyone
But it is you
Your maison
Observing me
Giving me life
Rebuilding
With one wing
Willing to sing
My other wing
Willing to fly
When I see you
I realize
Four wings are stronger
Than two

The devil crossed the nine of wands
Chained to negatives alas
In desert country
Even cuffed in brass
Probes against resilience
Kicking up the courage
Was his test of faith
In a dark unholy bath
Seven swords of past betrayal
A king of intellectual power
Pages written for a novel army
Outcomes plague the midnight hour
Popularity contest for six
As the pentacles approached
The magician made a chariot
Fit with horses ten fold forth
Expand the feathers
Silence speaks a thousand words
A magic wand can say much more
The battle between angels
Happening on a hellbent floor
Fire and smoke
Can blind the best intentions
Without a rope the tug of war
Has no tension to resolve
A wicked trance an oozing sore
The serpent slides along the sand
The hierophant calls judgement too
There are good and bad folks out there
How will the shield protect the truth?
In love and death
Some will use the blade for light
Some will use the quill for dark
Watch the clock of these behaviors
When the magic hour stops
It’s a jungle out there!
All illusions will dissolve
Fall away unveil the star
Bright of hope above the slope
Machette through the Amazon
Pluck the forest of deceit
Absolve the personalities
Seeking the roots
That always supplicate
Pure love

I said I was done
In my dreams to you
It took everything
In me to get it out
I yelled
But I barely had any
Voice left to express
A chord less shout
Still I heard myself say
Let whatever
Makes you dark and dull
Be gone
Even if people criticize you
And say that you are wrong
Right
I was right about you
Perhaps you were wrong about me
We cannot love
What we resent
How many pieces
Can I fall apart into
Enough to love you with my dear
How many teachings
Can I open my mind to
Enough to grow with you my dear
Why do we have to
Pull away to be seen?
What does the word
Comparison mean
To you?
There is something
About the way
That you look
At me
With such beauty
And intensity
It makes me want to
say my words differently
To you-
Why does it seem
That all the upset
Is just useless
Bootless is the journey
Walked in barren dreams
It’s fruitless to be
Futile when we can be
Complete
