The mind, the soul, the heart
sometimes craves
another part
the reverse imprint
of
a smile, a touch
that shows up
from the inside
sometimes in long drawn out
chain of circles
sometimes in the quickest
feather patterns
just touching in the lightest brush
the slightest echoes of the soul
Sometimes in an unexpected rush
like tidal oceans' flow
it's like a missing puzzle piece
it's like playing
hide and seek
we are searching for a fit
we are searching for that shape
We are hoping
as we run and search
from room to room
to soothe that inner ache
and in my dreams I'm playing tag
from my grasp slips
whoever's "it"
playing endless hide and seek
straining at the bit
and it should be all fun and games
It should hold adventure true
but the only game is pain
and I emerge
quite black and blue
for hours and hours in the maze
hiding my true self
hoping to be found
for the glacier to be melt
with heated words that make no sound
and loving knowing eyes
that penetrate through layers
that look upon me, wise
No need to talk
or even think
no conversation needed
just a true connection
a bond
a communication completed
The truth is all there
right beneath our skin
ready to be bared
it's surface, rice-paper thin
I have been way too long
in this murky room
always playing in the dark
sitting in the dusty, shadow gloom
and now a river's running through
the hallways of my heart
furniture is floating
walls just break apart
So if you find me, now
In this game of hide and seek
know my heart is now open
to the raging cosmic beat
run with me, if you dare
through that sparkling darkened door
My spirit-love is freed
and I couldn't
ask for more
As the roof crashes down
and comets fly above my head
as I run through all the chambers
dodge spinning tables, chairs and beds
I crash through the door and draw
my sword
for I will keep up my fight
for vitality to keep surging
through my soul
as I leap into electric
light
sometimes craves
another part
the reverse imprint
of
a smile, a touch
that shows up
from the inside
sometimes in long drawn out
chain of circles
sometimes in the quickest
feather patterns
just touching in the lightest brush
the slightest echoes of the soul
Sometimes in an unexpected rush
