I am here, my love, forever

See me in the light of the sun

Imagine warmth in the cold morning air

Remember, you’re my only one

My spirit will always comfort you

Whenever the world lets you down

And life is filled with much despair

Always, my soul shall surround

You’ll feel my arms encompass you

Though my body you cannot touch

Feeling my presence ever near

Knowing I love you so very much

Step Lightly

Step lightly, be careful not to break the shell

I wouldn’t want to crush your feelings

All is not well that doesn’t end well

Emotions are often sent reeling

Speak softly, never rough nor crude

Quiet, calming, the words must be

Or, surely, I’ll be considered rude

And you’ll go running for sympathy

Wait, before you spew more slander

Exactly what is it that we don’t agree?

Stop wasting time on pure propaganda

Perhaps the problem isn’t really me…..

Far Behind

babbling brook
Listen closely, as the water speaks

Its aura of magic, a sweet mystique

For communing with nature, simple, carefree

In a babbling brook that’s beside the old tree

On a small bridge of twigs, set upon stone

This beautiful sight that sets the right tone

Soothing the body, relaxing the mind

Leaving my yesterday’s far, far behind

flame-1041851_960_720
My eyes are closed
And still I see you, blazing
The flame of desirous sin

I feel exposed
As the heat of your touch, grazing
Makes my body sing its impassioned hymn

You tease me
Until I surrender to you
And we are one with the night

You please me
With everything that you do
And I find I can no longer fight

Darkness Plays

Mountains made of clouds

Against azure colored skies

Night creeps in with silence

On the whisper of a sigh

Emerald earth shades to black

As the heavens hold the day

Sunlight fades away with time

As darkness comes to play
