Those lifeless wings;
On the metal they lay

My dear beautiful bird
I find dismay

Buried next to the marigolds
where my departed cousin
once grazed

Gone, the life from you
No longer flapping along

On into the netherworld
Where you'll sing
your chirping songs

My little lucky parakeet
sing
Forever long

The life from you
now drained
dead and gone

After celebrating a wonderful Halloween, I came home to find that my parakeet had passed on =/ Just a little dedication

Awakening

Process the transformation
Rooted deep within
your souls conformation

Your heart is the beacon
The soul your core

Light up the world
and burn all those doors

You've kept shut
for far too long

Open the windows
Release your light

You are strong
You are love
You are full of might

Just be

Release your light,
cast it upon everything

With all the strength
you hold inside

~Tenderness~

I want to feel your heartbeat
against my barren skin

Skipping and racing
as your lips brush tenderly
against my lips

A moment frozen in time

Forever held safely
wrapped within the warm embrace,
of your loving arms

The heart song <3

You make my heart sing a wonderful tune
I'm forever entranced in the rhythm
Played so beautifully a violin
Strumming and humming
Lost in the musical notes
My heart is singing your name
Calling to you, hoping you can hear the ring

The kiss before the kiss

I've often thought

Of the way your breath
would feel upon my neck.

A wondrous sensation,
I desire your hands to caress.

Every single crevice of my body

I long to know of,
the way your eyes would slowly raise,
gaze, and lock upon mine

That moment, where time and space cease to exist.

The kiss before the kiss.

A coming together of the beauty between thy heaving breaths.
A small fraction of a second, before our lips have finally met.

~One wish~

I yearn for your touch
The grace of your fingers
Gliding gently across my skin

A moment suspended in time
When your eyes sense my silent whims

An ache of desire fills within my chest
A loving embrace I long never to forget

Where nothing else matters
In a world, where you and I
Will forever exist

heart to heart
eye to eye
hand in hand

A moment with you
I shall gladly cherish

Until the end of time

Unspoken

Just be
So peaceful, so quiet
I only wish
To fill this silence
With a touch and a kiss
You slowly begin to brush my lips
As we drift
into the deep and gentle night
Hold me, just hold me tight
I only wish
The stars would shine as bright
As your eyes do smile
As we drift
into the serenity of night
So show me love, wondrous things
Not seen by daylights beams.
