You remind me of
A younger self
Uninhibited
Open the door
At your touch
The bolt falters
Windows to my soul
Lit magnificent colours
Upon grand entrance
Into my world
Take me back
To a time when time
Was unmeasured
Lost in sublime
Hours of hopeful truth
Seamless rewriting
Darning old memories
Luminous awakenings
Love heals all wounds
Stake our claim
In deeper waters
So we may tie
Wavering souls
To solid ground
Beneath the sea
Evade tidal waves
Collapse into me
Stories we tell in our heads
Become placeholders
For our future selves
Unless we hold space
For our word and breath
To live on in others
Pressed against freckled
Trunk and limbs
Spreading out holding
Horizon caving in
Concrete walls collide
With rays of fading
Warmth of hopefulness
Create our own breath
Out and in
Between two bodies
Stem the rising fate
A smile
A glimpse
A kiss
You win
Hidden beyond shores
Evading passing glances
Midden of past lives
Buried under feet
Occasionally arise
A token, memento
Broken dreams
Surfacing
Shards of memories
Words crescendo
New season flush
Cover soft green
Tender one tread lightly
Through new landscape
Sights and wonders
Exhilarating new scents
Expanding our senses
Golden hour
While sun still shines
Entwine tendril fingers
New season sublime
Face framed by darkness
I peer inside
Bursting open
Safe from the wilds
Weather with you
All through the night
Laying bare
Come to light
As city lights kiss the sea
So you sink into me
Strength unmeasured
As she holds space
A weighty moment
As I hang on
Her every word
Hear me cry
The sky is free
Rapidly shifting
Illumination
Without the need
For New Year’s Eve
Or TnT
Just watch closely
You will see
Few steady hands
Can claim it
Laying pigment
To blank canvas
Just look up
Its beauty fleeting
Kiss of tears
Fall upon me
Chased by sunny smiles
Her face slips away
Into darkness again
Tender lover
Come back to me
Count the stars of heaven
