There's a thin line between obsession and love
Often hard to discern
Obsession sits in the bathroom while you ****
Love shoves a magazine under the door

With stolen moments, I could get lost in you,
with the ease of walking into a silent room.
Everything in the world fading away,
when I feel your lips on mine and what it conveys.
A kiss, a smile, your touch on my face
a treasured sight, this secret place,
where we connect and share our art,
tenderly sharing bleeding hearts.

Make your day lovely
Fill it with big happy smiles
And cups of coffee
Smiles and coffee :)

**** my soul
        with poetry
           scream out my gracious name
             slay me with words
               that peel my layers
                and simultaneously
                                   drive me
                                           insane

finger me slowly, hotly
with just the right rhythm and rhyme
    push me past my
                 tender limits
                       into tongues of syntax,
                                                      sublime

a­lliterate my senses
   (in swift stac
                    c-at
                           o)
until my mind is but blank verse
    mess up my stressed
              and unstressed syllables
in unsung language, versed

I will speak to you in vowels
(the only sound
       I will be able to make)
as you stroke
   my iambic pentameter
             in the heat of frothed-up
                                                     ache

we are this heroic couplet, you see
        even if the meaning seems veiled
           no need for simile or metaphor
               as I feel your chest rise
                              in deep inhale

we are a natural paradox
       so many ironies abound
         discordant harmony
is our synaesthesia
     in visible darkness found

and I love this delicious enjambment
as your aura invisibly slips
                               into mine
our lines have no beginning,
                                 no end
    as we undo
          the boundaries
                      of time

en·jamb·ment
inˈjambmənt,enˈjam(b)mənt/שלח
noun

Love
cannot be fully comprehended
by using words alone,

Love's true depth
can only be accurately measured
when it is shown,

True love
can be fully recognised,
and felt by the heart,
without needing
the slightest of touch,

When love is expressed
through caring gestures -
it is within actions that real love
is sown and grown;
I truly believe this
to be such!

to be a word
the poem of the day
or perhaps a leaf
on an elm tree
maybe
the dew on the lawn
in the morning
or the frosty vignette
on a window cold
or a  refreshing drink to some
parched soul
someday a remembered
orange glow on some
long distance horizon
or kept
just my name
in a chain
in a locket
on some
beauties neck

Shall be
Remembered
Taken in with every touch
Into my very last nerve
Every fiber of my being
Make me whole my
Soul find heaven
My life have meaning

That last first kiss
I shall savor taste
I shall be united for once
When I taste her lips
Meant for only
Me to find
From the beginning

Just her
And
Paradise

blooms of daffodils petunias roses red
as autumn days shrink shorter
closing in the cold
like the pantaloons
fell to the floor in June
hot passion wafted to the ten-foot ceilings
fan slowly spinning
blades knifing air cutting sexes
scent making it incense
as we drifted into
fall
fell apart like orange red leaves
blown to the
distants
everywhere
spread
showed displayed
for an instant
glory
and then...

Depression was setting into my soul
Listening to the news on TV can lead me this way
Negativity is guidance for the majority of what they say
My energy began to drift away
Laziness, napping, TV watching increased
My desire for taking walks decreased each day
Purpose for being no longer existed
This morning The Holy Spirit woke me I decided not to turn on the TV
Got up read Matthew 28:18-20
Remembered that I am alive
Jesus healed me, He saved my life
I decorated our house for autumn
Moving life forward
Remembering, like autumn leaves falling bring forth life's seasons
The future as my purpose to share Jesus
The reason
The reason
The Light, The Light, The Light
When I do not let it shine the darkness seeps in, depression overtakes my mind
I have to praise The Lord all the time
