The trees were stretched tall reaching for a sky that they could never touch .
Holding onto memories
Footsteps along pathways through deep forests
What lurks within your darkened mind I wonder ?
May I hid within your brokenness
Until the Phoenix in me surrenders to the fire that lies at the base of my being?
May I curl myself around you in the darkness of the night whilst my soul sleeps , my heart yearns and my body unwinds ?
It feels so warm here
I love that you just accept all my flaws and only see the beauty within.
I love the darkness and the night that holds us together
Two lost souls floating in a sea of wonders waiting to be found.

There's a hard wind blowing from the north;
And the wintertime has become so harsh.
Yet, I'll not worry, not for long, because
Long before the summertime comes again
I'll be gone.

For there's silver in my wings so strong.
If I spread them wide they’ll turn to iron;
And I will fly up to the sky and across the sea.
For there's alchemy for this silver in my wings.
Yes, I'll soon be gone.
I hear this in my head as an old Scot's ballad.

are what we hope can be seen afar
of who we truly are"

I will build a castle from the rubble of love
And send out invitations on the wings of doves
Encouraging all to come

Come to share in this banquet so richly prepared
Come enjoy joyful gatherings beyond all compare
In this castle that Love has built

a Mouth remains open--

never having hungered

after space.

a matador is in it--his

figure cannot be seen at

all.

though he is still there.

the bull he dances with

is still there.

they are a floating heap

of red roses--whose petals

disappear into their own

impaling *****.

as a cape would.

Friendship is a bond so dear,
One that fills our hearts with cheer,
Through good times and bad,
We stand together, never sad.
With laughter and joy we share,
And comfort each other when in despair,
A shoulder to cry on, a listening ear,
A friend like you is always near.
In times of need, you're always there,
A true friend, beyond compare,
Forever and always, our bond will last,
For true friendship is never surpassed.
i need to move them into a place
of loose adjustment
of random offerings
and sketchy lines
