Kissed your lips and whispered to your soul,

hearing weeping of the wind in melancholy moans.

Tortured by your absence, I taste fear of frosty lips,

numbness overcoming as I kiss your chilled memory,

inhaling and exhaling intimacy of what we had.

A final caressing breeze on nape of my neck, rests

between my sighs, stillness sleeps in deep slumber.

Remnants of flickering shadows expose lingering heart,

romance and passion carved lovingly into marble slab,

face of stone crumbling into blackness of tilled soil.

I close my eyes and kiss you a perfumed goodbye

walking with glassy stare on path of forlorn roses,

sunshine washed away by salted tears of closure

as I yearn for one more kiss until I share your realm.

We may speak

But no words are involved

We may feel a bond

But do nothing at all

The cold breeze

Dry smoke

Big trees

All of us are broke

But pieces become parts

Together we are a whole

Nothing can tear us apart

Vibrant souls

Never ending love

Is always bestowed

In our safe place

Society can't see our face

We feel a connection

We are united

But nothing's exchanged

And we sit divided

It's that feeling in the air

That makes you know

They do care

Before I met you, 

I was ready to settle down with my ex and buy a house.

I was prepared to live in the city I was born in for the rest of my life.

Life got in the way,

As it does.

Fortunately,

I met you. 

You made the world my playground,

dusted the dirt off my knees when I fell,

and got me back on my feet with a soft smile and a bad joke.

Now here we are,

Unsure of what we're doing,

When only a month ago we were inseparable.

Distance has a funny way of separating heart and mind. 

You say you want me,

and only me,

and in the same breath,

you don't want me at all.

I'd climb mountains for you,

stand at the tallest peaks,

and free fall into darkness,

If I knew you'd be waiting at the bottom for me.

I've always been scared of heights,

but with you by my side,

I have no fear.

As summer comes to an end

Autumn draws nearer and nearer

I wake up today with breath in my body

My heart beats it's beat in my chest,

And I lift my head towards the open blue sky

I cry out to God praising His name

Thanking Him for allowing me live another day

But I bow my head low

Knowing that I've screwed up and I'm filled with many flaws

He looked down and said to me 'My child, your sins have been forgiven

Take this hand of mine and I shall lift you above this abyss

Of despair and hopelessness.

I'll never forsake you or leave your side.

So have hope and don't fall into despair.'

As the days go by

From summer to fall

Fall to winter

Where the days grow colder and longer

And the earth is covered in white

I'll wake up each day

With breath in my body

And a beating heart

I've screwed up too many times to count

But I am not a failure or a mistake

I am a child of God and He calls me His own.

Neck extended

Body suspended

My ears rung as I hung

As I swung among

Branches and brush

Candidly hushed

By the hiss

Of the wind blowing in pure bliss

I exist

I persist

No longer

Not going to give up on love

Love won't give up on me

All the tears I've cried

Just wash away the misery

I've been stung by the honey bee

I have a taste for my souls honey

It is my sustainability substance

I'm no quitter

Keep moving forward

Heart and soul

When you fall in love with a writer,

You become the very words of her work.

When you fall in love with a writer,

She paints your world with the magic of her ink.

When you fall in love with a writer,

She holds you dear to her heart,

So her pen won't bleed pain.

When you fall in love with a writer,

She'll drown you slowly,

In the waters of her own depth.

You just have to fall in love with a writer,

To know what love can bring you.
