My own complexity daunts me.
My mind knows what my body does not I have seen I have felt I have known beyond the reaches of this world with whom I am familiar Have you never looked into the eyes of a stranger and known you have met before in some other way or some other form Souls know no limits Minds have no boundaries But bodies do Perhaps that is all that keeps us sane Our body holding us to one place in Time and space

TimeLapse
Dazzle me with rarities Lull me with enchanted song Dreams like trance Aware and overcome Dances rhythmic Soul at ease Daring to traipse on the edge Mystic one Where are you taking me

Mystic
Tearstains unlock doors You reach out in darkness and Ask for me to come inside We sit in the space in your soul for Hours pouring out our hearts Until the light peeks through the Crack under the door Stepping out you dance away Into daybreak without farewell Leaving me in an empty shell My poured out heart is A puddle on the floor that You didn't embrace the way I did I might see you again When it gets dark And you recall Just how miserable Seclusion is Welcome back I've been lonely

Black Balloon
I am chaos A swirling sea of mixed feelings Plagued by storms of intensity Desires laced with Confusion sit in bottles on My shelf screaming 'drink me' I am madness Bright lights and raindrops Blotting out what was left of my common sense

Entropy
Madness Like headlights reflecting off rain On the windshield Blinding me with split seconds of Panic Focus Because I'm on a highway And if I falter I'll lose it all and then I'll have Nothing Velocity Driving me to keep on Staying true the course But I'm risking Everything Brakes No longer keeping me in Check and offering an out I'm afraid I'll never be able to Stop Please Don't change the road ahead If you walk away It'll be my Ruin

One Lane
You are the centerpiece All the crystal fragments of your perfect self Refracting light like a thousand diamonds Dazzling and mesmerizing me into a Blissful trance Strong enough to hold yourself up A beacon in the vastness of the Dance floor of my life yet Fine and elaborate in design You reflect stars into my eyes Even though you aren't a galaxy I'm ensnared in the cosmos Of your radiance Far above me is Where you reside and I Am but an onlooker like the rest Continually startled by your brilliance When all of the guests leave My hall and take but a memories I will remain spinning in Circles alone Unable to see anything but The most marvelous part of it all You My chandelier

Chandelier
The geometry of perfection An equation of stars Constellations spinning Rhythmically to a melancholy Melody written in the language Of the essence of being A brief connection that spans Ages and draws together The centuries since past In reverent bravado Wordlessly etching a memoir Into a stately marble floor Stumbling into grace Like sudden elegance found After a third glass of rose cabernet Untaught steps mastered in Moments engulfed in an Overwhelming sense of pose The dance of dances A most classic and romantic Masterpiece of body Music and mind Scripted by the soul A renaissance of heart

Waltz
She is quite the romantic Classic, charming, a charlotte A modern Jan Austen A  21st century Marie Antoinette Dazzling steps she takes, Lighting a room with presence A most exquisite escape A most darling endeavor Touched by an artist with Ringlets of gold and eyes of oceans An immaculate china doll An irreplaceable countenance When she descends steps Every eye will be fixated as if she were A once lost duchess returned A secret lover revealed I stand amidst the awestruck But a mere menial commoner Talentless Ordinary Empty No jewels to wear about my wrists and neck Just a fragile flower crown for a sandy head I hope she can see me from where she stands High above where I cannot be Smitten with her grace and noble air I cling to the thought that her eyes perhaps landed on me Oh what I would give to befriend Such a marvelous and enchanting being.
