A whisper of questions, far twinkling light
Seems like heaven's a'near with folly delight
In rage, I'm running, wading through vacuums
Confused emotions, all shadowy glooms
No stopping now, I pant with sweat
Desperate for answers, not painful regret
Step three, step four, the move finds no sleep
All chains and bondages, this life seem to keep
Find meaning, find purpose, no reasonable doubt
As mist, yes mystical, this life will head south
Like winter surprise, the dew and the frost
Bites eagerly at a soul so wastefully lost
Why darkness, not light? This seems but a game
Haunted by lies, unpurposeful shame
Delight, sweet caress, how precious such needs
Lost in this world of selfish and greeds
Alas, a green exit, blinding light, my eyes seeing
That tunnel, yes peaceful, of rest in peace being.

My tears replay on lonely days
With thoughts of you in shades of blue
Swept off your feet in princely dreams
I dance alone and sing this tune
The winds blow cold despite your smile
I feel your warmth, it lasts awhile
'Til cloudy days, approaching grays
Turn sunshine rays into darkened moons

I cry in pain like shards of rain
They drench my mind in twisted knots
The rule of love disrupts all hope
As poison ivy reclaim my thoughts
Your response is cold as truth unfolds
My heart erupts, yours closes shut
Into a world where lovers drown,
Now 'you and I' are truly gone.

In a hidden corner, I quietly stand
My head bowed down, my eyes stare low
I hear stomping of feet, disorderly screams
Like ones that pierce in unfortunate dreams
My breath grows heavy
My heart, it complains
In isolation, I feel so estranged
"What if I'm found?", I tense with great fear
"Then all would be over." Like death coming near
(silence)


Then quicker than lightning
my chest gets a hit
and with sinister laughter
he announces,
"YOU'RE IT!"

We hurt because we have a heart
Moulded from tears God shed
When He said, "I love you"
And as we go about our own ways
Oblivious to the Golden Rule
Our hearts weep a
stale stream of abandoned love
Suddenly, 
the world is empty,
our vulnerability revealed
As angels whisper,
"Cry."

Beyond this art, the depths of heart
will yearn for deep and sense complete
the answers to questions from ages asked,
for why or reason the mouth does breath.
A life to live 
from morn to night
to seek to find the source of light, as
swords confer on bended knees
the valiant courage to cross the seas...
To find, to find, with stars a'watch
angelic tears from clouds a'drop,
as visions clear, horizons queue
blue heavens greet, 
Eternal beau...

And while moons reflect the truths of suns
and waves complete their yearly runs,
new babies awake in late July
to grow and laugh as reindeers fly...
Grow old, they may, 
and whisper ask
remove, corroded, those withered masks,
what's left are songs so vivid strong
of love that longs forgiven wrongs.
In turn, all men all stop to pause
creating moments to engage a thought,
but despite it all, the soul is lost
as answers reveal, return all nought.

Just pray and learn, yes live and laugh
And know that God forgives the past, and
Ask, believe,
by grace receive, 
Of life, of life, of life at last.

Hours past midnight, the tranquility is prince
I can almost hear a rasp whisper, the moon to the sun,
"Breakfast is nigh, dear friend. . ."
Gazing beyond the circular window, on this bed
as if relaxed on a glistening stretch of sand,
Stars in my eyes,
I recall her Beauty, her Strength
her Love, her All.
At Rise, my joie de vivre at rest
Will wake to the medley of sun-bathed robins,
and with a familiar tenderness upon my face
An eternal vow,
Propose in mellifluous whisper -
"Let's have breakfast together, sweetheart."
Sealed by a kiss.

I smile as my hand takes hers.

I lay enamoured,
the prince prevailing
'Til death do us part.

Shhhhhhh
It's still a secret
hidden in codes of winks and smiles
it bites sweetly
deep deep inside
hush
shhh
shhhhhh
no one knows
I'll plant her a rose
no one knows
we're in love
Shhhhhhh.
