Past echoes

I’m falling for the echoes of my past

the haunting of a time

when love was love and simple lines

were enough to see me through.

Now wisdoms here, my desires unclear

I’m biting through and through

Tell me

I need the stars to burn so bright

to lure the sun, the moon, the skye

I need them to sing me a lullaby

that starts with love and ends with why?

The glare

Silver glare softly slices and paves
Your knife and the thorn deepens the ways
Burrow deep, burrow down
Hibernation is key
To hide from the summer, the mind

and your breaking sea.

 

 

The fire within

The fire’s roar that burned within
ignited from delicacy, innocence
before billowing unobtainable heat.
Forever searching, desiring, seeking.

The desire

Could I let myself fall in your arms, so easily, so gently, so dangerously close?

What if I did, what if I reached too far, what if I touched that fire.

Could I ever go back?

I am in reverse.

The dance

This dance that we play

the swings and slides of despair

I can not move forward

nor hide from your stare.

Your Ether

I am losing myself to your ether

Watching it glide so softly through

Every word, every depth, every secret

Draws me into your shadowy blue.
