like sweat on a hot summer’s day
my heart begging to melt into the world
in the scorching sun
stealing the words from my mouth
the strength from my legs
the breath from my lungs
unanswered questions
unanswered dreams
life stands still
in the middle
of a hurricane
if pain could ****
I would be with you again

Hearts and minds meld in the land between worlds. Memories dissolve where receptiveness leads the soul on a journey of its own. There are no signs or directions here; no use for what you knew before. Open your hands; there is no clinging to fear in this place, for what you had known no longer exists.
Fill your lungs, close your eyes, and propel yourself into the unthinkable.
You may just learn to fly.

I ran from demons
across my life,
through the forest
of my dreams,
down a path
which had no end,
or at least it never seemed
I walked,
I ran,
I swam,
I rowed,
across a sea
I never owned.
A wall appeared,
forever each way.
No forward,
no back,
I turned to face my prey.
My hands
began to shake.
My breathing
stopped.
Eyes shut tight
and opened once again.
To my knees,
I began to fall
only to face
a broken mirror on the wall

You held me in your arms and my eyes leaked the memories of your soul

One step forward, two steps back
I step left and you step right
One step closer,
in the dark of night
This dance we do
It goes on and on
It never seems right,
And it ever seems wrong
Round and round,
It goes round and round
All of my life,
I have never found
Another
Who I’d ever
Dance with so long
I know you can hear me
When my eyes speak to yours
I know you can feel me
When I can’t give any more
Hold my hand; please make it stop.
One step closer, in the dark of night
So many years we’ve done this dance
From friends to nothing to sweet romance
It tears me up and it spits me out
How I just want to die
Or to scream and shout
But I’ll never give up, till the day I die
I will pray one-day
We won’t live this lie
……….anymore

Just another body
Just another boy
The day still goes on
The sun still rises
The stars still fill the sky
Than why?
Just another body
Just another boy
The world still turns
The leaves still fall
The flowers still grow
Than why?
Just another body
Just another soul
Just another body
How was I to know?
The sun shines not as bright
The stars are now all dimmed
As day falls into night
Leaves still fall
Spring still arrives
Yet, the flowers
have all
lost
their scent

You are the grin across my face
the one I can’t explain
the yearning in my soul
I can’t seem to tame
You are the tear
in the corner of my eye
the ache in my body
the reason I sigh
You are the reason I dance
when the music plays
the reason I could curl up in bed
and stay there for days
You are the reason I reach
for the highest rung
You are the lyrics
after the song has been sung

I am the thought buried deep in your body
the one that makes you smile
I am your curious question when your mind wanders
the itch you cant quite reach
your warm moan with the first sip of coffee
your sigh with a swallow of wine
I am the chuckle as memories dance in your mind
the desire to teach
and the craving to learn
the reason to keep walking forward
and not look back
I am your yes
I am your maybe
I am your not and never will be
.........alone.

Another day, another chance
The broken road, that continues on
Pain, and the joy of when it leaves
Fantasies which hold more truth than reality
Lyrics when the music is missing
The music when the lyrics are missing
Friends who are family
Family who are friends
Refillable glasses
Refillable hearts
Refillable lives
Silence, which speaks
The joy of children, young and old
The dented, scratched, crooked, redefined, unconventional....
....... beauty of Love

Surround me with songs and a love that touches
…my heart
…my soul
…And my body
Let us dance to the rhythm of our hearts beating,
as the memories run down our cheeks
for worlds to come
Love me in silence and screams that only we can hear
A love that makes me drop to my knees and pray again
