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.

To that Country Twang

 I didn't go looking and I didn't expect to find

that you would be here time after time. 

I didn't go looking and I didn't expect to find

a love, like the love between you and I.


I didn't know or understand at the time

that love does exist like a blissful rhyme .

I didn't know or understand at the time 

but I know now what there is between 

you and I. 


I didn't go wishing or wanting anything

but a deep and dark void was left behind in me, 

till that day long ago when you first said hello

you took my hand and held on to me.


I didn't believe a love like this could exist

it's more than any one person could wish, 

from that first day I hadn't been the same

for my days of sunshine dried up the rain.

Tonight

I don't need to make promises 

for my heart belongs to you, 

nothing can change the way

you make my sky so blue.


The words are definitely indelible 

they are  permanent indeed, 

a script of forever love 

beyond all eternity. 


I lost it for a moment 

I thought you didn't care

but no matter the distance

our love can be shared. 




Hold My Hand

 Holding hands 

strolling by the seashore 

kisses sweet that is 

what dreams are for. 


Moon lit path

nothing else matters,

love is here 

that's all we're after.


Stop and stare

gazing into your eyes,

goosebumps follow

under starlit skies.


Magic in the air 

thinking of the love we share,

brings together two souls

in a everlasting hold. 


 Holding hands 

strolling by the seashore 

kisses sweet that is 

what dreams are for.

From Afar

 I took to daydreaming

to bring you close to me, 

as I envisioned your love

as we frolicked by the sea. 


Passion and desire 

and happy as can be,

on the blanket in the sand

just you and me. 


The image a blessing

that soothed this soul of mine

as  I held you close to my heart

bypassing this troubled mind. 


We have come together

though distance dares to part.

as I feel your kisses upon me

and your embrace from afar.
