A thousand summers
yearn for the sweetest ache
of whispered love
urged by hasty tongues

Innocent embraces of wild lust
excites straying fingers upon summer delights
while hungry lips seek naked hearts

As broken secrets rise with the morning light
a coaxing sorrow beckons the end
with sleepy language
and lazy heart

Farewell

Barking names
Remember the day
You missed
The dire spirit
While digging up bones
Under the stars

Facing away from the moon
You forgot the lies
And remembered the truths
Of your secret heart

Locked inside
Away from the sun
You hold the keys
On your guarded island

Pulling me back
in the arms of Mr. November
Time moves unfamiliar
But still I am

Longing for the known
thinking of fall cold
every corner there I was
unfamiliar

The melody moves unfamiliar
strange comfort in delight
of nostalgic rediscovery
But unstill I am

Unrelenting release
naive meanderings
Through the fall
into spring
but still I am

Forgetting what is forgotten
Ungripping reality
The light of laughter all but lost
In the darkness of memories
You were for me
but only in my waking sleep
Bittersweet release
of love unworned
In darkness I weep
For newly sprung wings
Awkwardly I leap
From the precipice of my dreams
Caught between the wind
The stars and the sea
You are for me
In living dreams we meet
Generously forgetting
Love unworned
Being in your keep
at once I find peace
