love is an ocean

filled with regret

that i'm not through

swimming in yet

in it's waves i've struggled

most of my life

tossing and turning

pulled out by the tide
I had a series of dreams last night
All involving you
Holding hands on the beach the other in flight
Out beyond the blue

Dancing away until the break of dawn
Both light on our feet
Me turning to you giving my all
You giving everything to me

Alone on an island gazing at stars
You and I side by side
My love for you flowing wherever we are
In dreams or in real life

I often wonder on this side of the dream
If perhaps they do come true
I had a series of dreams last night
All involving you

Blue ridges rolling
To picturesque blue skies and
Islands laced in sand

Smiling ever so sweetly
A quick wink of the eye
She opens her palms slightly
And lets the dust fly

Mind you this is not pixie dust
Nor dried mud from a troll
But the finest of fairydust
That could ever be thrown

It seeps through the crevices
To the pages within
Playfully and knowingly
Lands on a poem with a grin

If your one of the fortunate few
Then you know what I mean
Because what has landed on you
Is the love of her dream

Your heart it does soar
As her dust lifts you up
Sparkling among the words
The magic of fairydust
It's been a month of Sundays
Since it is that I set face
Anywhere near this band of angels
In this most Holy Sacred Place

Guilt may overwhelm me
Shame may do me in
This day set forth may break me
Great sinner that I am

No one is less deserving
For I am the least of these
As I am covered in God's glory
Awashed with an inner peace

The days that I've been vacant
Are all apart in the grand scheme of things
Bringing me to my knees in my need of saving
And back to the Eternal King

As my brothers and sisters in Christ surround me
Pouring out love, not ones to judge
Tears of joy like flowing fountains
As another Prodigal son returns
If your one of those that for some reason or another have left the Church and keep thinking I need to get back...today's the day.
Jackie boy, why are you bleeding

From inside the soul to the out

Take another drink of life my friend

Cause I think you just whacked yourself
