Heart to Heart

Love is thick
Saturated in
Everything we do
Everything we are

Through the pain
Through the joy
Love rises up

Like a fountain of light
Through the darkness
Through the accordion
Of resilient breath

The beauty of our
Soul desires to connect
Heart to heart
With each other
In intimate ways

This is what forever
Looks like with you
Casual finger strokes
Through your hair

A place to rest
No arms to bare

Tracing the lines inside your hands
Feeling your breath against my skin

My lips against your cheek
Our faces pressed together
Hours seem like minutes
Weightless greatness

You don’t care that I’m too deep
I’m turned on by the way you think
Your speaking voice is
A melody to me
It beckons me
To sink

Down into the ground
Below us

Silver outlining
On clouds of carpet
Rolling around
Arciformed through
Shadows cast by fire
In front of the hearth
The golden secrets
That we discern

Our love is like
A sunrise in Tibet
My favorite memory
With my love
Though I haven’t
Met you yet

All Kinds

It takes all kinds
To balance this space
Love your enemies they say
Those that do not relate to you
Add to the beauty
Of what you manifest
What they mistake

Even feeling excluded
Can bring a better power
To the joy and the love
That we can ultimately
Shower

As we bloom

The rose may feel
Unaccepted and
Rejected

Believe me you
Don’t want that energy
Believe me if you had it
You would wish it
Was a dream

The poison to be loved
The pesticide that kills the dove

More like a nightmare
From the one who is jealous

On the outside of the self
Looking in to understand
It is the ones that do not fit
That lend a hand

Offering a spotlight
To your brilliance
Where you shine

The sun will rise on evil
And the good
The difference in between
Will reveal what others could
Love if they only would
Push aside
The monster
That is
The ego

Unlike any other
In the capability
To love it all

The mentality is not the same
A very different mental frame

On the surface
Though this person
Though this thing
May not love you
May not like you
May not understand you
Will never comprehend you

It will show up as your
Beautiful difference to be
Loved by others

And the insecurities
That smother their misjudgment
Will benefit the gifts you give
Nurturing
The rose that lives
Within

Your heart

Serious

A moment of pause inspires a thought

Do you take me seriously
Do you believe
That I mean what I say?

Do you think that
I’m too serious
Do you just not care
Anyway?

My intentions are good
My feelings are strong
Can it be understood
My emotions are a vessel

There is no tragic curse

Is it dangerous to accept
Do you have to be first
Is there an order
In how this plays
Does it mean nothing or
Do you just not care
Anyway?

I am genuine
I am thoughtful
I am sober
I am austere

Would it matter
If I did nothing
Or do you even care?

Serenely composed
Unnecessarily compared

Am I important
Deserving attention
Or do you even care!

An epiphany no matter how absurd

Take note of
My consideration
I always keep my word
I always follow through
You may not take me seriously
Take it to heart
Because I do

I cannot trust you
If you cannot see
The value to come through

In every touch
With every breath
Though perhaps radiant

And silly how ‘bout
A clue

There is intention
And deep thought
In every little thing
I do

Why should I want
To be
Taken seriously
If it’s by someone
Like you

Obvious Tragedy

Bullet holes
Casings everywhere
Broken glass
Cold despair

Crawling out
From underneath
Our wreckage
Accepting no defeat

We rise above
Break the heart open
Even further than
We thought it could expand
No longer choking

Double whammy
Strength in numbers
Titles discarded
We spoon the hunger

For a better state of mind
For a more loving
Way to find
One another

Exonerate
Absolve the pain
Liberated
Break the chains

Without the expectation
To commit
To something we
Were never meant to
Find a fit

Heal the puzzle
Locate the stain
A true design
That we can frame

Serving dinner at a table
That was once
Shaken unstable

Now is bountiful
With nourishment to feed
Tear down the walls
Reveal the obvious tragedy

Dragnet

Pursuing what could be
Divulge the grand mirage
Your music box is programmed
With perfect harmony

The mystery
A riddle even Sherlock
Could not solve
Love me
Love me not
I hear the words
Revolve

As the petals
Propel and fall

As the petals
Propel and fall

Untangle the case
Decipher and decode
I dig deep to find the bottom
Of your cryptic oracle

There’s no need to rush a
Favorable circumstance

When you are ready
I’m your anchor
I’m the bloodhound
Song and dance

Detective to your heart
Lover at first glance

Allow me to
Unravel the untold

Through

Blinding light
Inside me
Can’t resist
Climbing up and out
Resilience
Through my chest
Beating out
Craves the sun
Like seeks like

The cloak that
Drives reality
Into the dark
Interrupts
The spark
Of the divine
With robes like wings
The breath of death
Beholds the light
Swings black
Stars out
Across the night
Shattered
Into tiny diamonds

Reflective sheer
Transparent cries
My eyes reflect the mirror
To the soul that
Resides and
Climbs with
Blinding light
Outside of me
Into you

Romance

The mist is like a gift
Refreshing on the face
Of Sunday morning
Left and right
It sways
The wind displays it’s cordial
Gratitude handled with
Delicate affection

What is romance?
Is it a fascination
A carrot dangling
On a string
Is it enchantment
In the forest
Hid behind
A childlike fling?

Is it a courtship
Of intrigue
That leaves us
Dancing in the street
A love affair
Of fleeting moments
One hundred brush strokes
In your hair

A flirting rendezvous
That sets off fireworks in your eyes
The moss that’s clinging
To the walls
The ivy climbing
To disguise
A secret second
That beholds
A glance a kiss
A dream in blue
Watching clouds
That shift and shape
To take the form
Of what is you

Like the flowers on a tree
The petals falling
Gracefully
Like the shadow that
Is following the
Steps we
Cannot see

Is it the laugh that
Rings the bell
Above the writing
Wishing well
Or the pail that gathers
Water bringing
Hearts up
To prevail?

Tangled in the sheets
Leftover imprints in the bed
The scent the pillow case
Has left
From the curls upon
His head

Is it the anxiousness I feel
Waiting to hold you once again
Or the excitement in my nerves
Before it starts that it
Could end

Dissension

It seems like the fight is over
And no one won
The challenge of light
The mission of love
Common ground
Multiple favors have started

There are no sides
Only one center
We can’t be that close
As a standing person
Next to us and that
Man could be anyone

I am not a blanket
Although I accept all
If you want to be close to me
It can’t be to serve
Your only goal
Go to the next
And the next

It seems like the fight is over
And the only one to win
Is the one who protects
Their own interests
Their own hearts

Because it’s trust
What is special
Is not authentic
To everybody

I am a dream that you had
Entrance and bridge
You crossed
If you cut the rope
Without knowledge
We are less than
When we started
