Thoughts of her provoke me,
choke me, cloak me,
my soul can barely breathe.

Visions of her torment me,
tempt me, they empty me,
Oh how my body bleeds.

Utterances entrance me,
romance me, take chance with me,
their intent only to deceive.

Animosity surrounds me,
confounds me, abounds in me,
inflicting wounds you can't conceive.

Tasting life evades me,
shades me, downgrades me,
will it ever be mine to retrieve?

The beauty of your breath swirls, spins, entwines
Disclosing desire without words
Inhaling soul and breathing fire
Melting inhibition and resistance, futile
Sighs permeate, infiltrate, saturate
Whispered permission evokes surrender
Drawn to the depths, tempest released
Gasping for sustenance, intimacy, connection…

Harmonic chants recede
Beckoned home, awaiting the inevitable
When memory stirs the beauty
Etched by breath

It Wasn’t Supposed to Be Like This

It wasn’t supposed to be like this,
held captive in a life long lost.
Struggling to summon her voice, her face,
warm remembrance given way to frost.

She left me on a winter’s day,
though she’d left me long before.
To weak to let her find her way,
begging she stay a minute more.

Mired in guilt and dark despair,
heart slaving to overcome.
Days and nights grew into one,
not living, nothing but numb.

No, it wasn’t supposed to be like this,
a heart left caged and unattended.
A grievous wrong was done that day,
leaving another forever suspended.

Between Worlds~
I often find myself undone
By things beyond my control
Like slipping on ice
On a autumn day
Feeling the icy wind
Brush my cheeks
And wondering
If I can pick myself up
When suddenly your
hand appears
warm to my cold fingers
Your breath on my neck
as you laugh
at my awkwardness
and hugging me closer
whisper
“You’re most beautiful
when you need me..”

Mind Dance

Beautiful words as constant as breath
Seep into my thoughts, permeate my mind
Intoxicated, I float, weave…crave. Need.
A soul to surrender with self-inflicted restraints
Drawn to the altar; haven or sacrifice?
Silence awakens me from this dream, balance flees
Ancient instincts conflict with this life’s lessons learned
Bound to the wisdom that has been my path
Words are only words, even the most beautiful
Until spoken again…

As a gallant heart begins the descent
A mysterious song begins to stir…
“Deeper” she whispers… it is where I am
There is such beauty here, only she knows.
But as the path darkens, bravery wanes
Stifling the air, now thinned with fear.
Destruction lived here,
Scattered remnants of a broken life evident…
And faced with their own debris of battles won and lost
Visions of beauty transform into instincts of salvation…
…withdraw is protection for only one.

Resolution in her veins, intention in her soul
She finds a hiding place, deeper than the one before.
And welcomes the distance that stills the noise
So she can still hear
Her beauty unsung
