Polar distances would stand
at the circumference of our destinies
Plouging through the rage of memories
and through the fabric of time

but alas!
what difference does it make
when our hearts have transcended physicality
passing the shimmers of mortality in flashes
to rest in silent hands?

And slowly washers bear me up
through the dust and into the flanks of heaven
basking in the presence of the ether
and peeling off my skin

now we are nothing
soaked in the colour of our depths
the same but the same
and so pleasurably so––

Yesterday
in the cotton folds of the black eye
a startled sentience exploded with atomicity
building up in power and decimating the dust lanes beside
as we lay in the comforts of our littlest cores

and spraying its jets across the galaxies
touching the oldest star lights beyond
crimson and aqueous in all amber echoes
crushing down our systems of eternal purity
pulling together and dissipating

for millenia distances meet by vibrations
conflicts of heart and the love of joy
rearing their ugly colours in brevity
but shattering consciousness for moments––––––––

You give me your arm
and we take to the streets

A plethora of bombardments
stimulations and senses
dissatisfaction ringing in our ears
but only faintly––––

and the rush of the waves
bursting down their lanes
crashing into the cacophonies of beyond
but all oblivious

wonders of our bodies
demons of the mind
enticing and exciting all the feathers of the future
ruffled and untangled
purity in its core
smells and sights flashing
immaterial and immortal
from time immemorial

Implicit splendour in the colour of the day
and moonlight reflecting just gently

corals and shadows flitting abound
dyeing the darkest shades of blue

and clouds of cotton spraying through the light
sweeping the horizons of eternity

love in the eyes of the sun in sight
our tossed whispers lining the days––––––

I awoke in a dream
and
       pushing away the covers
arose

The lights dazzled me
a bright shimmer of aurora
speckles of play

Footsteps light on the carpet
parquet leaping aside
slipping down the steps

and the outside
      grasping eternity
dimmed and paled

Morbid voices and
forgotten faces
but I cannot see––––––––

and murmurs to my peace
soft touches and
distant kisses

I awoke in my dreams
and
      pulling my lovers close
went back to sleep.

Moonlight, daylight
Time in all my days
Light the fire of the hearth
Crease the wrinkles in my space

Moonlight, daylight
Hope in the sparkle of dreamland
Take me to the seams of time
How far my sight will span

Moonlight, daylight
Pull in the shores of memory
Mirror me in the ocean
Take all the weight I will carry

Moonlight, daylight
Grasp of night in sound
Eclipse my soul of division
To what chains we are bound

Moonlight, daylight
Spear the winds of spice
In my heart of yesterday
Time can wane the price

Moonlight, daylight
Speak in all ways of life
Choke on wishes of longing
We watch the sunset
in daylight.
