I try, I swear I try,
but you are always there,
touching my thoughts with wonder,
bringing desires to my mind
on endless wishes
cast upon continuous ripples,
rapidly forming with every breath I take
~
Morning brings the sunrise
in multicolored shades of how I feel
Reaching for that lost love,
floating like indigo butterflies
just beyond my grasp, though
I still want, with every ounce,
every movement, every hope
~
I have been told
I long for what I can not have,
that elusive bloom
at the peak of the arbor,
radiant beauty washing down upon me,
fragrant reminders of a time before,
when your petals gathered at my heart
~
And try as I like it is of no use,
my mind holds you, desperately dreaming
in echoed whispers and twilight shadows
which never seem to end
For as long as there are butterflies,
honeysuckle breezes and poetry...
*there will be you

I would never lie to you
Was the last thing that he said
Before he left out all the truth

You will always have my heart
Was the last word that you heard
Before he tore yours all apart

I will always be by your side
Was the last thing that he said
Before he walked out of your life

I will always be right here
Was the last word that you heard
Before he disappeared

I will always love you
*Was the last thing that he said
mist of time
oh love of mine

on that night
neath the moon
you promised me
a love boon

by the fading days
of May
our love
had frayed

mist of time
oh love of mine

the vine of our love
untied
its affection
died

mist of time
oh love of mine
evening draws down
the last vestiges of light
sunken to the west
man hath placed
his ruinous hand
on the Earth's finest attributes
no service to the natural world
hath man imparted

he cuts the trees down
he digs holes in the ground
he pollutes the atmosphere
he spills oil on the pristine coral reefs
and the list of his misdeeds
go on and on...

man shall pay
for the ruin
he hath wrought upon the planet
his unfeeling hand
touches ever corner
of planet

a day of reckoning
isn't far away
all the beauteous assets
shall all be blown away

man has yet to realize
that he needs
to protect the planet
for future generations
that are yet to come

there is only one planet
for humanity to live on
and where will we go
when man's hand
has ruined
this Earth's
magnificent show

a message
a clarion call
a megaphone

man's hand
touches the planet
without a properly
conceived thought
the precious moments
they share online
are so exquisitely divine
tethering together
in cyber space
making a connection
like the linking loops
in a piece of lace
a romantic fusion
of love birds
logging in
to dispense
their devotional words

tangled tendrils
and running
mascara

arctic thoughts
caressing a
hollow heart

she's lost herself,
in the hailstorms
and cold winter
nights

but she will never
forget the winter storm
that he used
to tear apart
her paper heart

He's falling asleep.

She's falling apart.
