Lifts

 Your love lifts me up

in the most amazing way,

rids the sky of darkness

replacing all the grey.

Touches the heart

as if it were made of gold,

the precious moments

have a special kind of  hold.

Your love lifts me up

in the most amazing way,

rids the sky of darkness

replacing all the grey.

Feels like a thousand suns

have warmed this soul of mine,

taking me high above the clouds

each and every day.

Your love lifts me up

in the most amazing way,

rids the sky of darkness 

replacing all the grey.

Age is no requirement

for ever sixteen are we, 

that is how I feel with you

in my every dream.

Day

The birds migrating 

stopped to say goodbye, 

in the tree tops high 

they had taken flight. 

Surprised by the view

too many to count 

as their silhouette was 

cast against the blue.

They tweeted and chirped

in a roar like sound 

that befuddled me as I

glanced up from the ground.

The sky darkened 

as they went on their way

in this page of life 

documenting a day.

Mastered

 I mastered the running 

with my feet standing still, 

I conquered every mountain

by starting at the bottom of the

hill. 

The visions are inviting

with a positive view, 

like the passion flower entwines

the love just grew and grew. 

I felt the magic 

that had me reaching above, 

in away that brings two

beings into one. 

Time

 If I say river

you say stream, 

I see a mountain 

you view the dream. 

No two moments

can be explained, 

our worlds are as

different as different

can be. 

Could have been love

or could have been lust, 

the emotions that surfaced

couldn't adjust. 

I said hello

and you said goodbye,

as the ache in my heart

lasted all of this time.

Curtains

The curtains are drawn

and the sun is bright, 

with a lift to the soul 

and a trigger to life. 

The heaviness is 

simply all but gone, 

as I have accepted 

the right and wrong. 

We can't change

the seasons hold,

the mountains height

the rivers pull. 

Time has passed

and it is all but gone, 

leaving behind 

a solemn song. 

Wonder

 It was the fullness of the moon

in the universe within

 that somehow became a reminder

there is no beginning or end. 

Like stories in a passage

of one chapter to another

becomes a moment in time

from sunshine to thunder.

The emotions are heavy

weighing down upon the soul,

only to await the curtains 

to see the truth in view.

The similarities are many 

the differences just a few,

which in comparison 

reveals how we are very 

minute.

We can't change the stars

in the heavens up above

or rewrite the journey

with or without love.

I can shout it from the high

or in silence simply wonder,

if this tiny place in time 

is some unintentional blunder.

 

 

One More

 My heart was racing

the numbers were high, 

the visions before me 

messed with my mine. 

I wanted to stay there 

and refuse to awake, 

I wanted the dream world 

even if fake. 

To be in your presence

to know you were here, 

I would do it again, 

if our souls could share.

It wasn't spectacular 

and it was ordinary at best,

complicated by all the people 

who put us to the test.

I knew in my heart 

you must have cared.

so I traded in my day life

just to have you here.

Could I continue the dream?

Could I find you there?

tucking under the blanket 

and closing my eyes

 in hopes that I'd be in your

arms one more time.

In the Thick Of The Dream

 I repeated your name

I called it out twice and

in the thick of the dream 

it all felt so nice. 

It was quite clear 

and as vivid as vivid can be, 

that something's in life 

are just meant to be. 

I closed my eyes and refused to let go

I need another minute to hold you so,

the occasion was ordinary and a little 

bit strange but to feel your presence

I'd it again.

Essence

 For a short period of time I escaped into a world that was neither here nor there. Free to experience and to feel where I am void of any restraint. Am I who I want to be or am I what circumstance had created? The heaviness that weighs down upon the moment has me slipping back to a time where laughter ruled and the heart assured me of the magic that exist. Like a story where I was indeed the writer and the characters of life appeared briefly. There I am in a chapter that has my soul dancing upon the clouds. The anxiety that had engulfed my spirit for so long was channeled and I felt a sense of peace. Ahhh this must be what the water raft feels like when your head is slipping under. Running , running escaping the barriers . There is a kind of acceptance that comes with self . I am the sunlight that shines down upon you and wakes you in the morn, the wind that whispers your name and the sweetness that brings a pleasant taste to the memories. 

Brighter sunlight and gifts of blue, 

the sky above us a blanket true. 

Dried the tears and warmed the heart

that soul to soul will never part.
