Where Dreams Let You In

 Nothing more than a rainbow 

fading high within the clouds, 

where nothing is left to hold 

as there is only emptiness inside.


The early darkness sets 

as the rain pit and patters

and there in the moment

nothing else seems to matter.


It could have been the dreams

the wish fulness of the heart,

that hoped for something more

from the very start. 


But rainbows never last 

and blue skies turn to gray,

as I look up to the heavens

and the void has found its way.




Sorrow To The Sea

 The wind swept down

and carried to the sea,

the love and the heartache

leaving only memories.


The calendar shredded

as the months fade away,

like the rain in a storm 

I pray for the sunny day.


No tears are falling

this chapter left blank,

as I feel a numbness

in the void that remains.

One

 Whispers of love and

stars that shine of above,

I took it to the wind 

to send you all my love.


Song of the heart 

a melody of sweet, 

inspired by the dreams

of you with me. 


My lips quivered

I imagined your touch

and there in the darkness

your image merged with 

mine into one. 





If Only I

 If only I could make you see, 

just how much you mean to me.

I know you'd be here now and

you'd be gazing at my smile.


If only I could make you love

the way that I love you, 

I know you feel the magic 

the way that I feel it too. 


If only I could hold you here

and never ever let you go, 

I'd love you the way you should be loved

like the sun that melts the snow. 


If only I could make you see

just how much you mean to me, 

I know you'd be here now and 

you'd be gazing at my smile.


I

 I wanna make the mountain bow

to make it easier to get to you, 

I wanna make the rivers flow

sailing in one direction to you. 


I wanna make the skies blue 

even when those skies are gray,

I wanna whisper in your ear

" I love you more with each

passing day."


I wanna dream night and day

of holding you here close to me, 

I wanna exchange those kisses

sweet the ones that bring you

to your knees.

Under The Stars

 I was once told "not to let my emotions rule. " I guess that has always been a little difficult as I believe in life, nature and energy and that we are one with our surroundings. Trying to keep my emotions in tack makes me feel a bit numb. Almost like a blank canvas with no yesterdays or tomorrows. Sometimes I find it necessary to file away in my mind each experience , so as not to relive them. What is gained and what is lost?  The sun is setting earlier and feels once more as if I am living in darkness all the time. I looked up at the stars, the sky clear and bright and thought of our existence in a reality that is not fully explained. What is our place in this great universe?  Life so precious that if lost cannot be replaced and at the same time people disregard the importance of it. I thought of the stars how they brought us closer. One set shining down on us no matter the distance between us. But this evening I looked at them quite different for I felt lost without you. We are so minute in the scheme of things.  All of life needing the same nourishment, food water and care. Was is beyond what we know? As the clouds pass by the heavens the stars fade.  


One with the heavens

and one with the earth

nothing between us 

as our hearts concur.


Energy, spirit or 

something in between, 

as our souls came together

like a well thought out dream. 







Heart

 I hold you near, 

I hold you in my heart. 

~


As the rainbow faded into the sky 

the sky blue surfaced.

~

The canvas of life changes with the season

unlike my love for you which never falters.

This is my story....
