In the midst of the afternoon , sky is darkening trees look still
I breathe in some fresh air, ghostly on the property,
Close your eyes and breathe, feel tranquility
Surrounded by wildlife , dark days soon the sun will shine
Loved ones who are gone ,praying for peace
Days go by still no answers
Will I ever see you again, ?I ask myself
Somethings go without saying to live in this world
with so many unanswered questions
Sincere thoughts run through my mind
How much I love you, my eyes start to mist up
without answer to this puzzle that's been going on
over a decade
I know I have to be strong
I'm still living in this cloudy day
Cloudy day,

Every step you take,
you are
                moving
                                 toward
your future, whether you realize it
or not.
Emerge like the rail road
that was once underground.
Each choice leads to a new narrative.

Turn the lights down
and remember me....
Aren't we still the same--?
in shadows
of incoherent innocence and beauty?
In the soft and limpid
florals of the spring?
Am I not the same--?
still warm, somehow?

My love--

Can we not, still make it here?
In ancient fires?
Turn me toward you, in your mind--
Wanting--
Erase the blight
with lips still seeking mine
Hair has drifted off--
the years
to catch the moonlight on a shoulder
as nothing else    will

ever

With something mined
from hearts and minds  

Touch me!
Make me forget!

I am not angry with the day
though I gaze the skies with such disdain
I cannot outrun the light
so in the interim I wait idly by
or hide in shadows

so strong and constant
is the Sun
reminder of my weakness burns
I greet the darkness in it's absence
it holds no truth
no strength
only the means to cower

I will ride the ***** of night
until I fall into my dreams
where thoughts are kind and colors play
it is here I escape
the wrath of day
revised oldie - still not satisfied
