Love is all there is
It’s glorious
And painful
It’s beautiful

Love is all there is
It beats in your chest
Have you thought about the rest?
It’s everything

Love is all there is
If you open your eyes
Feel the world come alive
See spring bursting through

Love is all there is
Can’t you feel it?
The vibrations of world
Look up at the clouds

Love is all there is
Watch the sun crack through
Enhance your view
See the trees and flowers breathe

Love

It’s all we need

The candle burns low
As lust drips
Dark shadows cast
And flicker
Your ardent hands entice
With
Tempting touch
As moorish lips discover

I look in to your eyes and the rest of the world slips away,
like melting butter under flames
Im not here nor there
I am ethereal, consumed by the universe
The shore retired revealing golden bed
The sun was set to rest
The moon full, withdrew, declined to speak
There were no need for words or a language to seek
The vibrancy from your earth brown eyes set me alive
The fire from your parted mouth sends meteor showers raining down
I touch the wetness of a tear
my body and my mind
The third time I cried
Forever hypnotised
I submitted to your eyes

Dreams, dreaming  
Being, seeing, believing
Existing in this parallel place
Nobody else can ever step
In to this transformative space
Like walking up a stairway of the mind
And falling through the door to what’s behind
Closing tight eyes and shutting down minds
Subconsciousness catches a ride
The safety-net cloud breaks your fall
Illusions are real, you feel it all
You touch skin
You breathe in
Sunrise rouses dreams with pleasant memories
Vivid flashbacks disguised as false remedies
Abruptly ending melodies
Are dreams friends or enemies?

Covers pulled above my head
Cocooned safe and warm, like death?
The world looks like such a mess
Quickening pace of my breath

Questions, questions, no reply
Society with its ‘freedom’ lies
Intoxicated brainwashed ways
Oppression, how the richest stay

On top of all the disposable folk
What an absolute ******* joke
With confidence we call ourselves ‘woke’
Funny how those same shoulders *****

Have you ever observed your pain?
Looked at yourself from outside yourself, experiencing the turmoil of time
What is life, if not an ounce of suffering is spent on love?
I will stay stuck, unable to turn the page on the month
Until filled with the hope of you, once again

Vacant fears, dented hearts
Barefooted footsteps leave their mark
Faded prints each step with
Pain and love and how it’s meant
I taste the tears of years and years
And remember you before
Again we meet, along the path, presented with a way
Unaware that nature’s order is at play
No rights of wrong can be decided, for I remember being guided, by “when you know you know.”
And I know my heart drops to the floor, among the universe it does soar
The contrast of highs, of lows, love just flows and flows

Lifted from impassioned sea
Where destiny awaits
Silver curls
And deathly rips
Gilled fins and fingertips
Turquoise-greens
Scales that shimmer
Hooked and speared
Dark gets dimmer
The Mermaids tale
Will coexist
With other legends
Who became extinct

Be peace. Be truth. Be open to receive, and acknowledge the universe moving inside of you. Pain, happiness, sadness, joy, it all has purpose and language. Listen. Feel. Feel the energy you are experiencing. Be separated from the emotion. Look on from the outside. Recognise its teachings. Be present, aware of its impermanence. Here you will start to know truth. X

I wonder, achingly
Do you think of me
I send you messages
Via telepathy
I know you receive
Other days I don’t believe
Every poem, every breath
Every beat in my chest
Is yours

Inspired by these words I read
My heart was beating fast
There are all these reasons not to
But the ones that seem to last
Are the ones that fill my head
With romantic tales and ****** ***

With eyes like stars
of never ending galaxies
If this is everlasting
Then infinity is welcome
If these are the last eyes I see
Mortality can take me

Painted Christmas cheer masking fear
Jokes and smiles hide miles and miles of sorrows
Don’t look in to each other’s eyes too long
You’ll catch some truth
The illusion will melt like icicles
The show must go on

Tsunamis flood my flesh
Internal heat simmers
External skin shivers
Physical reactions happen
The power of imagination
But more compelling
Are your lips
Your hands on my hips
Connecting with my mind
Your eyes fixed on mine

The street lamp sways in still wind
It’s midday, though I’m on my morning tea
Precisely I pick the raisins out of the biscuits
Sharing the uncontaminated bits with Ted
Grapes are poisonous to dogs, so raisins would be too
Together we finish off the packet
Ted curls up under the radiator
Out of the window, snow is delicately falling  
Rooftops are bright white
The street lamp is still

You started your life as a fluffy white feather
So perfect, so flawless, so pure

The price of life saw you change with the times
And that fluffiness is no more

You fell from the sky and caught my eye
Our stories have changed, amour

There’s a girl
That would
drive
3  hours
For one
Silent kiss
From your lips
And
Back again

You’ll never know a love like mine
It shines like rubies under sunshine
It glows like the buttercup dancing with a lilac butterfly
And those green-lemon leaves against this flawless blue sky
It gives meaning to the shooting star
That I wished upon for your peaceful heart
It finds strength when you’ve run out
Love, that’s what it’s all about

Feels like just yesterday I forgot to put the bin out
And here-
a week passed
Feels like just yesterday, the first time you met my lips
And here-
a year passed

She's never been more surly broken, the certainty of the words you've spoken, and the lack, the pieces that she can't put back.
Her heart will never beat the same, cracks grew like veins, dying whispering your name.

Words, I crave their salt and sweet satisfaction on my tongue
Tears well in my eyes because of time
Knowledge tastes like childhood vegetables
Loneliness ridicules ridiculous self pity
Anxiety simmers steadily, till my chest bubbles and my skin burns cold
A halfhearted teardrop clings to the corner unafraid of falling

I put my thumbs in my ears
To block out the noise
I hear my breath like waves
Like the ocean in a shell
I’m breathing
And everything has breath
Has life

I surrender to the moon
I roll toward the shore
And drift out again
Listen closely
Seagulls
Frothing sea foam
The fearlessness of children

Bold and brave
“Hi, will you play with me”
The moment, is all there is
They play
They part
Detached from thought
Freedom

Will they remember?
Does it matter?
Darkness will fall
But in response, light
The hummingbird hawk moth sings
Between two worlds
A delicate thread  

Hold me here, or there
I’ve tasted it
I’m no longer afraid
I choke on my words
I’m petrified... of life
What is this choice?
This waiting list?

I’m sick
I’m sick with the harshness
Of filtered lives
I’m sick with love, or it’s disguise
I’m sick with reason
Illusion works in ways
Truth remains
