In love by morning

On the turning away
Entering into void
Sideless convex slope
Taking you down
Into space

Ejecting lifeless forms
Breathless pressure
Tender organs
Enveloped in atmosphere
Another world

Return to firmness
Cheek against ground
Gasped as one
Breathing their first
Looking around

Chrystal clear light
Shines all about
Reflections eyes
Smiling down
Speaking softly

Taking my arm
Astounded
Leading by hand
Counting my minutes
Since landing
Jewel bug (Choerocoris paganus) nymphs hatching

Paranormal

Whether awake or asleep
A parallel reality
Woven from memory
Laced with dreams

Evades my spaces
Empty rooms
With music
On repeat

Behind closed eyes
Her face reminds me
Promises only keep
When stored safely

Entertaining
All kinds of things
Foreseeable future
Down by the sea

Takes my willing heart
On much needed holiday
While planting seeds
To grow all around me

It’s a little bit funny

Ethical nature
To draw one out
Protect from predators
When they hide
On the inside
Under rocks
Not out open

How easy to mistake
To mimic a threat
For safety
But scare away
Own mate

Funny how I know
When I decide to
Stop chasing
With words
That'll be the day
You turn around
In the heavy silence
Between us
Where only smiles
Are found

By an inch

Tell her that you love her
If not with words
Any other thing
Without a doubt
Most important
Need to know
Life or death
By an inch
Holding one
Away from cliff
Sudden drop away
To vast ocean
Of loneliness
Tell her simply
For vast open sky
Meets horizon
High and deep
Where love consumes
Our solitude
We float away
To worlds unknown
Forever

Only way

A multiverse grows 
Out and beyond
Over and within
Unexplainable

To the naked eye
One only sees a light
A smile a look
A gracious word or two

The only way I know
How to love you
Is in spacious place
Wide open spaces

Long learnings ago
I hoped for one
To explore the cavern
Find the open door

My mind is endlessly
Travelling back forth
But pinpoints perfectly
On one such as yourself
