Traffic like the roar 11.07.2008

Traffic like the roar

of an automatic ocean,

I close my eyes and dream so far away.

and with a breath

I’m there once more

sun warm on my face.

you call me back to reality

and I Tear my mind away from serenity

all is lost for eternity

you take my hand to lead me away

into the cold darkness which comes

only after that last flickering light which is life

is but out by the icy cold breath of death himself.

I wake, gasping, blinded by sunlight

as I am once more reborn,

given another chance to find the answer.

I journey on 06.18.2008

I fly above with watchful eye

to journey home

at last will i.

From places where

the ocean’s

 coast rush

 to meet the sloping shore,

past ancient bearded mountains

full of lore

I journey on.

o’er deep red stone the waters hewn

their path and paths to come

I journey on o’er rich gold fields

which glint and sway on wind’s heels

I journey home

to emerald valleys where rivers flow

and hidden there,

beneath the leaves,

you’ll find my heart,

though quivering.

although I’ve seen the wonders hidden

behind the shadow of the earth

a place both harsh and intricate,

a place for my rebirth

I long for peaceful quiet

and the hint of music

magic

beckoning me home.

sun rise sun 11.24.2008

sun rise sun

illuminates transparent skin

i watch You breathe

a silent moment You

look at me

eyes saying everything

don't be so afraid

i pull You close

Your lips wet

against my skin

feel You tremble at

my touch

You're safe with me, 

love

You're safe with me. 

sun rise sun

bring your warmth

dry these tears

and breathe once more

i'll be Your light now

close Your eyes

and sleep child sleep

oh sun rise sun
