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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
