Endless Beginnings:

Where desire is an endless distance...

'He sleeps...I steal his brush,

Dip it red and wet,

Painting on his chest;

A mosaic of Love

My heart's mirror;

I carry him

Beneath my breast,

His Love

The first and last

Of my awakening heart'...

Writing him...

 

It was the softness of his hand

That held my breath against my will

Nestling in the curve of my arm;

My heart fluttered in his warm smile

As the mocha of his sight drenched me...

Smiles echoed on the canvas

Of tomorrows, suspended in each

Syllable that flowed like manna from heaven;

My fingers abandoned their hesitancy

Outlining his face,

Memorising...

I faltered;

Breathing in the shimmer of what is real;

His smile whispered a promise,

As his voice echoed my own

In an unwritten poem...

 

Poetry...

Lily white, she wakes near the night river,

The red mantra of Summer's rain, opens

The rose to shadow;

Cradled in awakened smiles,

The touch of twilight intoxicates visions of fairy-tales,

Like somber hues of unbuttoned fragments...

 

Heartbeats,

Soaked to the hollow of *******

Tucked in the deep comas of the lotus moon;

Her silver light,

Seamless,

Dreaming silks and milk tender...

 

A whispered name...

Hands steeped in honey,

Moving slowly through deep-red,

Echoes of dream;

Stillness,

Swallowed,

As hours burn pale candles,

Frozen eternal in spangles and lace...

Her wings wrap his pain in song;

Feather light,

A kiss of sweet enchantment,

Beyond the delicate tick-tock

Of destiny's hourglass;

A verse vertigo

Set free by the bleeding of her pen...

 

 

Reflections.....

 

This soft everlasting kiss

Nourishes the weeping within,

Showering each cold-shadow with warmth;

He sings in my skin,

Where we go in midnight's colours

My body, a pebble on his mountains;

Immersed in an endless sky;

Miracles flourish

Embraced in our endless beginnings.........
