I guess
I'll go back to poetry
now that
the real thing is ending

It's hard to lose touch
when you finally found it
hard to imagine
being content
staring at computer eyes
and typing can never
replace her flesh and blood hand

yet the reality is we must part after meeting
so brief the moment
so unsweet the parting
I may write a poem full of tears
I may tear this **** keyboard apart

trying to make it all real once more
her feel her heart her love for me.
A moonlit walk, on empty beach
she appears, within his reach,
his arms reach out, a cradled kiss
his tender touch, their hearts of bliss.

A midnight touch, a shadowed dance
they leave footprints, in the sand,
her joyful heart, their midnight fate
a kiss of grace, the love they create.

Hearts of fire, their love unbound
two souls in the night, forever found,
joyful love, loving sighs
for love resides, within their eyes.

just visiting
   every once in the while
                this exotic place
where dreams take shape
again

along treelines
   very near the coastal plains
                a time once where ships
had sails and lives were
placed

by visionaires
   painting psalms as true stories
               and dreams as real life
morals with plans to make
more

in the future
    as sticks and sands and
             and waders in the blue surf
lapping at ankles call the
shore

home as the sailor seeks
      his love when the sails have folded
              the salt washed in fresh waters
again a sip of barley
seek

amore'

Sleep­, that sets weariness aside,
Eyes that dream so free each night,
Of life to be a pure delight,
Yet wanders off to the darker sides.

I kept drowning further deep
To catch-up with your pace
But as I get closer and sway,
I seem to not touch your face

Your love is taking me
A place I have never been
To a heavenly garden 
Where grows no pain

Darkness has fallen 
Nobody is insight 
My eyes are wide shut 
But I see your guiding light


A light that makes me
Blush in delight!
The garden grape green,
The flowers smelling serene,
The glowworms glitters,
In this landscape yellow, reds and greens.

From your gardens of fruits
I want to have a tasty feast 
For you’re the pleasure I seek
Take me home before I’m awake


Not for me, 
Not for you,
Not for us,
But for the 'love' that entangles us,
Entangles hearts and soul.
Take me home,
For the heaven's sake.
Take me home, please
Before I'm awake.

I am sleeping in my dreams 
But wide awake in yours
I feel completely addled 
And lost my ways of truths

If insomnia has a different side
I would remain sleeping 
I need not wake up soon
From this pleasant view dreaming.


For it makes me cry,
It makes me smile
Like a happy child
With hopes so high,
Those hopes,
I know, shall never die!

River
Ice pelting
Rainbows melting
In a field
Of iridescent splendor
An oak, surrendered
Kneeling on it's knees
Took the liquid
Of hallucination
Escalating this vibration,
So now you can hear
The song of hummingbirds
They lift me high off the ground
I close my eyes and hear the sound
Of symphonies,
Playing intricate melodies
I smoked the hookah
Percieved the caterpillar
Of perception
I dug deep
Into the trenches
Of life's hardest lessons
And came upon a land
Of imprenatrable solace
My peace is solid,
Like a rock,
Once sadness was synonymous with my name,
But now I've gotten my mind and heart untangled
The depression that once strangled me is now unable,
I'm higher than this physical ground,
Feeling beyond this world,
I live deep within the peace of God,
In the center of love.
