One

you're here

inside me

nothing soft about it

a blatant blow

torpedo typhoon

stirring up

dramatic ends

tangled in the web

of which our relationship

stands,

fast and furious

time provides no lines

no bounderies

entwined in weeds

i seek to run free

but you are there

running with-in me

The Now

it is the here

it is the now

it is

what it is

rummaging

through existence,

remembrance

clutching to

what could have beens

might have been

was

is

euphoric matter

compiling continued

what can not be undone?

substance

it is the here

it is the now

Seen

i see you

the insecurities

need for attention

love,

hidden behind your smile

i see you.

believing hoping

you see me too

together, bound

intimately

unspoken unforgotten

captured, each moment

photographic memories

i see you.

please know,

there is no reason to remain hidden

for we are all exposed

open to the inevitable,

free to live life

in this moment

this age,

with you, i see.

i see you.

my love,

i set you free

spread your wings,

fly

together in harmony....

let go...

with me.

as i with you

eternity together

we shall be free

This Moment

Eerie strength resides
Power
Will of mind
Physical glee
Running amongst
the wild creatures
Tamed to no one
Conventionality outspoken
Free of poison
Clean and clear
Rising high
as the midday sun
No past or future

Soaring
Here

in this moment

I am free.

Fallen Pride

she stands tall

on top of the world

a tierra of pride

placed upon her crown

long nights and aching hours

lost oppurtunities of love, friendship

all paid off

she speaks eloquently, diligently

thankful of the acknowledgment of a lifetime

goals beget goals

success insued

she descends her platform,

prideful, graceful

thousands watch in awe

how fortunate she must be

head held high, smiling

one step in front of the other

tripping,

falling,

tumbling

down the stairs

one, two, three, four...

bottomed out

many rush to help her

yet she rises, gleefully

laughing at self

looking at the gasping audience

she takes her bow

The End.

each ending brings forth

new beginnings

but, i ask,

has anything really ended?

lying there,

mind seeking refuge

to say good-bye

so sad, the meaning

why not, why not?

see you later

see you soon

in the teacup of my heart,

how you fulfill me

a teaspoon of forgiveness

a dash of respect

just a pinch of regret,

when new beginnings

relinquish the end.

forever, ever-after

the past stays close to home.

the heart that you long for,

is the place, i call home.

i let you in,

i let you in

the heart,

it does not end.

I Love You

'I love you too,' I reply, 'how often must we say it...?'

'Not enough,' you smile, kissing my tender spot

'....but, how often must we say it,

for it to come true?' 

'I love you.'
