A tsunami arrived
In the night
Broke the protective
Force field
Where seagulls took flight
It had so much power
All it wanted was
More and more
It rode across the beach
And took everything on shore
Shattered the fish bowl
And when the sun rose
The next morning
Nothing was left
Nothing was left
Just the wreckage

You had
To go
Through
It all
So you
Could
Become
Who you are
Today

Her planet had a thousand suns
They shined in the distance every day
And she re-imagined her future in the past
Daydreamed thoughts in her mind
A fortune teller
Years from now she
Would take a great journey
To the edge of civilization
Where there are no lines
And many languages are spoken
And they share openly
Food for nourishment
Collectively all colors of
Skin and all are welcome
Some lost and then found
Her hair has grown long again
She wears a dark purple dress
And her soul feels alive
Like never before
Reborn child-like
One of a thousand shines
In the chasms of her mind
She saw more than herself

We were never
in control
just cunning enough
to fool ourselves
While the planet
spins on
nudging us gently
to move mindfully
in this space
no more
cars or stock
portfolios
or brutality  
just the clear air
of kindness and simplicity
the new way of life.

Think not of 'heaven'

rk
red wine
stained our lips,
with clumsy hands
tracing moonlight
on your skin.
our love got sweeter
with each stolen kiss
and in those moments
i knew,
i would follow you
to any ruin.
- all i could breathe was you.

The gift
Is life
Itself
If we
could only see
maybe we
would all
be freed
The gift
Is life
Itself
If only
we could
see
