Planted deep where
No one can upheave
Tiny speck of life
Revealed
So hardy grows up
Hundredfold
Deprived of light
Flourescent white
Glows in the night
Love kindled
Never tended
Knows the only
Way is up
Seeded

Planted deep where
No one can upheave
Tiny speck of life
Revealed
So hardy grows up
Hundredfold
Deprived of light
Flourescent white
Glows in the night
Love kindled
Never tended
Knows the only
Way is up
Some one who
Held trust could
Hold space
Some one who
Cared less could
Be silent
Many words could
Shed light
In the darkness
Seeking acceptance
Darkness is only
Absence
Without these words
My love is silent
Empty, without substance
Without your presence
In my world
There is nothing left
But word filled space
On empty page
A solo act
No accolades
Another day
Of waking thoughts
Wandering lost
No tune with yours
Are you guarded
Do you tread lightly?
Would you rather fly
Than be grounded
Forever seeking freedom
Are there threads
Caught between you
Lovers never left behind
Ripples gather round
Only light cast for miles
To reflect beauty
To passersby
Are you high above?
I burn below slowly
Keep heavy hearth stone
Warm if ever you might
Land beside me

If one can find the doorway
That leads into the zone
Where friendships rise
Past loves hide
No one's on their own
Invite as many people
In your life
As it could hold
Keep the journey secret
Don't tell them where it goes
In a quiet corner there
I'll watch the spectacle
With joy and jubilation
To bring life into my home
A simple tune
Calls out behind
Blossoms above
Fall in mind
Echoes through
Hallways clear
Responds in kind
Inside my ear
If only she
Would come to me
Lights out
Across treelined
Contour lines
Iridescence glow
Whites of eyes
No TV screen
Pins of light come out
Across sky canopy ceiling
Hands slip round sides
Holding gently sigh
Head falls forward
Cradled in nape
My nightly escape
Panorama backlit
By swell of moonrise
Stage is ours alone
Close your eyes
We are home
Shedding whole clouds
Downy white tumbling
Blanket soft on eye
Harsh to climb
Melts upon touch
Like yours to mine
Consumed by night
Entire mountain taken
Landscape far less
Forboding without
Possibility to climb
Where would I be
Trail of prints
You left behind
A run away thought train
I feel like a planet falling into a black hole around you. In a good way. Swallowed up by gravity. It flattens me. I submit to it.
Your smile when you look at me is the most beautiful thing I ever saw.
Only to hear you talk so I can press record in my mind and have something to replay on the gray days of my life.
I give you my best thoughts and that is like an eternal hand holding.

Two sides of one heart
One taking me in
Another letting me go
Rejuvenating
Sending life flowing
All around me
Until day is spent
Finding its way
Her chamber open
Receiving all of me
To be revived
Then sent out
Once again
Syncopating rhythm
Inside of me
A divide between
Echo in my ears
Both loves beat
As long as I live

In my mind
I hold on
More than
I could
In real life
Morning
Noon and night
Filling my cup
For the day ahead
As dew settles in
The flower bed
Thoughts take
A holiday
With you
