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

Across the sky watch it burn
Like the horizon, the last breath
Moving on from holding out
Like a shot beyond the past
From the gun your life is holding
Letting go of everything that has
Held you back from understanding
The power that resounds
Deep in the banquet of your heart
Sifting through the darker parts
Breathe it out
Cast the darkness of your past
Into a beautiful oblivion
You are standing on the ground
Of an incredible awakening
A constellation of stars in the shape
Of the sound of your love
Use your tongue now
And speak it
Out loud

If someone doesn’t love you
The way that you love them
You still have power to love them
Even if they’re not your friend
Concentrate on true love deeply
Close your eyes and breathe love in
Make a request to soften heartbeats
Then blow love out into the wind

It’s been four days
And seventeen hours
And thirty-two minutes
And fifty three seconds
Since I saw you last
Since I checked the hourglass
Where was my mind then?
What did we feel?
Beside you I lay
Nothing left to conceal
A halo between us
This luminous crown
The space interim cannot see us
We have nothing left to be found
Merciful

Gold in my mouth
Heart of red
On my tongue
A grizzly love
Voracious truth
I could dig a hole
To China just
To find you
All the veils
Of my ignorant inner life
Burned in the light of
My awakening
To you
All mistakes they
Melt away in the fire
Of our kiln
Radiating
Why does the sun
Look like the moon
In your eyes
Why does your kiss
Fear the plank
Of a thousand
Sweet goodbyes
You have a heart of gold
Pre Latin code
Debut to the first mark
Of a sanctuary mold
Unexplained
Requited kindness
In a spark
Richly shining
A love pond
Ruminating basin to
An offering of joy
Your illuminated selfless
Wonders conjugate
Destroy
Forms of pain into a
Heedless soft relief
With no suspicion
For contention
Nor deceit
Lying prostrate reverently
I bow to kiss your golden
Heart and at your feet
I see your beauty
Flowering

Drip drop
Plip plop
All the feelings
Tick tock
Raining down on me
One thing can
Change the game
Don’t get hung up
On perfect linings
Don’t let trying
To be the master
Of life stop you
Tick tock
Goes the
Clock
Time passes
What did you
Achieve today
Pressure to
Be the best
Above the rest
What is this
I make a promise
To myself
To be good
Yes that’s enough
Just be good
Ahhhh
Now doesn’t that
Feel better
Dodge the bullets
Of shame
Focus on
Protecting others
Pull out your umbrella
Invite their mothers
Under cover
Let the drops
Of perfect rain
Fall above your head
Penetrate the shield
The only perfect
Thing remains
Plip plop
Tick tock
In the drops of rain
Perfection is for
Nature
It’s not a
Human thing

I feel you crackling in my heart
Like a fire we could start
I hear you moving through my mind
Like a passion we could find
I sense you brushing past my nose
With a scent that overflows
Into a river of devotion that aligns
With every universal cosmic love design

Why does it make me sad to think
You cannot like me in that way
What am I hoping for
What am I wishing for
If it’s not for us to say
When you look at me
You must think that I’m a fool
To even entertain the thought
That we could have more
Than we do
I have to ask myself again
How it would actually be
If you could give me
What I’m wanting you to give
To think about you taking me
Seriously
Maybe it’s all fantasy
Something worked up in my mind
Sensations wanting
To mean more to you
More than you could ever find
It in yourself to be with me
Physically inside
Calling to your ocean
Captivated by your tide
For this
Or even just one kiss
What is it that you look for
If you search for anything
What catches your eye
Who’s in your line of sight
What does this person even
Look like?
Do you know?
Do you care if they like music
Do you care if they can dance
Does it matter how they salivate
Do you leave it all to chance?
Is it a boy
Is it a girl
That makes your whole world
Turn around
Is it the scent
Is it the smile
That runs
Imagination wild
Would you say yes to either way
Is there anything that I could say
Is there a word perhaps a look
What’s on the pages in your book?
How do I get into a chapter
How do I get onto your route
Is their a right or left direction
That could make you turn me out?
To tell the truth I think I see my love
That no it is not me
It’s just a wish
It’s just a hope
So then this is a fantasy
I should let go of
Just a day dream
Just insatiable desire
Pour some water on this moment
Douse this delusional spitfire
But still I know a part of you
I feel passion
Not just in sexuality
Intimate
And not just anyone
Has this effect on me
There’s more to know about you
All your feelings
Some of your past
But your history means less
Than the future we could have
I’ll settle for a spring romance
I watch you laugh
I see you tease
Observe your lips
With all of these
I think about what we could be
I think for you this is not what
You’re looking for
I think for you there is no deeper
Thought for more
With me
Of course I’ll always wonder if
You could want me in that way
I’m happy this if not a kiss
Is friendship too
Even if there’s still a part of me
That’s left with craving
You

The morning is the same
As the night
The feeling is
Always too much
Strive for
Perfection
The only way
I know how to be
This touch
Could we find a place
To grow together
Did I offend
Myself or you
Or both of us
Being who I am
Can do that
Unexpectedly
Human
Tomorrow is bright
Today is dark
But every day
Is hopeful
And one day so are we
We are growing up
With each other
Like the devils
Tongue
Forked in two
Feeling a glimmer of hope
In the midst of darkness
Like a possibility rising
Different from the star
That brought us here
The abnormal firing
of electrical impulses
Heart to heart
Affection is
The key
What else can we be
Is this the meaning
In our speech
Please say it
Say it to me
Turn the music up
Turn the lights off
Touch my face
Feel the tears
In my embrace
Left to the living we
Cry the most
Love the deepest
Left with everything
Hungering for
More
