breath

She was always irritated
When I would cry the day after
Can we go any further
Can I climb into any deeper insight
Forming a bond oriented
Around a collaboration with
Myself a healing potential
That disallows any
Outside interference
Granted by unpredictable
Stars and wind resources
To be used to control conscious
Rhythms with a sound and
A heartbeat that beats deep in
The diolkos like an ambitious road
Partially paved with stone
Thumping from below I can
Hear myself finally again
Breathing in the beauty
Of my own breath

Mesmerized

Mesmerized I emulate
The motion of wild horses
I am reminded of the wind
Catching the best of my
Beginnings along the fold
Of terra and the line of
Sublime earth and grass
We pass through the
Flickering memories
Telling the story of what
Places we have yet to
Recall and to behold
Until tomorrow comes
We look back on the ones
We could be alone at last
We could share a bed
Mesmerized I emulate that
Pattern with your breath

One Breath

We cannot carry
Darkness and bitterness
In our hearts and be
Completely happy
Backing down
Resting our misunderstandings
On the ground
We bury the shame and guilt
Open the parkways to
Great roads of silk
I promise you no expectations
I promise you many elations
Between the both of us
All our baggage
Can be left at the roadside
Contoured warmth
Of being with you
Even as the sky
Could be our afghan
And the grass
Our hammocked bed
Promises held in seasons
Yet to be uncovered
Another reason
To love more deeply
And succinctly
As true lovers
Sunrise sunset
Sunrise sunset
Capable beauty
Enveloped and yoked
As one shared breath
