I dreamed
of you
last night.

Not the 29 year
old you
who died

as I held
your hand,
but the

younger you,
the young kid
with the smile

and big
blue eyes,
the adventurous

you, the climber,
the you
in the cowboy hat

and gun,
the blue
eyed you,

the one
mischievous
for fun.

I dreamed
of you
last night.

Not the 29
year old who
died and flat-lined

my heart, but
the younger you,
big eyes of blue,

that one,
that you,
my son.
FOR OLE. 1984-2014.

She steps with silence through the snow
The lilies love her laugh and know
She speaks with kindness
Love
And
Laughter

Knowing deeply
What comes after.

Life, it seems a question
That’s answered only in death
A light that leaves your body
As you grasp for your last breath

What comes next
Nobody can know
You came like a dream
And now I’m alone

The tears that I bleed
Are hidden by lies
My love is spread thin
For those I would die

Her eyes gave me access
To see through her soul
Now I've gone blind
How could she let go

If death holds the answer
And love holds the key
Then somewhere beyond
She’s waiting for me
Traveler Tim
Over 20 years
I still can't let you go

The Devil pursued until his interest failed
He changed his course straight back to hell
Yet I felt to follow through gates and doors
Caught and married his favorite *****...

The beard that hid my bitter face
I took a razor and I did erase
No more hiding from what I can be
How could I embrace such misery...

Darkness plagues the shadows of mind
Light gets broken in the Devil's design
But we are not pawns without a choice
These are my hands and this is my voice...
Just because we change our ways
doesn't mean the darkness fades.

sitting here with her I could not be more amazed...
his eyes paint a picture of his love for me
The looks she's giving have me so dazed
I would gladly give my heart to him
She has me falling for her so madly
I could spend a lifetime hearing his heartbeat
If I asked her...would she marry me gladly...
I would give him my beating heart for eternity...

Together we can do anything we set our, mind, heart and soul on....
Our wondering minds going crazy....Future looks bright...GOTTA WEAR SHADES!

He grabs me into a world that I have never known,
And shines a light into my darkness.
Exposing all my secrets,
The doorway to my soul no longer hidden.

Feelings rushing like a tidal wave,
I fear I will wash away with it.
Grab my hand and save me,
Our magnetic souls will keep us grounded.

Wrap yourself around me,
Like a butterfly’s cocoon.
I will breathe out as you breathe in,
So we can feel like one.

Something is amiss
you begrudgingly beat
blood barely flows
in survival mode

Your rhythm echoes
as habitual hope
lacking in conviction
weary and wary

Do you hibernate
unable to sustain
in a landscape
frigid and barren

A passionate void
fills with apathy
dreams lie dormant
awaiting your awakening

My foolish heart
i asked you
to be still
not to stop
