Mar 2012
A love like the rain
A drought from the desert sun
So dry and empty

Thunderclouds rolling by
A moment to linger, they strike
Only ash remains

Vulnerable dust
Swept by shame across the lands
Of uncertainty

The sun setting west
Fear that light I will not touch
A heart still guarded

I long as I lie
Beneath a vast stretch of stars
Echoing my dreams

Here my mind is free
To be taken by the wind
No where; anywhere

Reason resonates
Do you believe peace is real?
No answer is known

Reminiscing fades
Time is cruel, moments too short
Cherish what is now

Though spirit longing
To traverse gates of new life
Nature will reveal

Secrets kept by death
Haunted beauties that lie beyond
imagination

Broadened, brighter lens
To behold a world greener
As grass always seems

Searching for a home
Yet that's from where I depart
Weary head and heart

An empty forest
Where stood a canvas, white, blank
The story begins.
