Look!
a silhouette of the wonderous setting sky!
glowing remnants of such flaming majesty!
Astounding!
Magnificent!
Luminous!
mere reflections of Beauty,
and all i may behold.
memories
of past brilliance, frozen
in detail spectacular,
fill the tomes
stacked in this
cavernous soul,
but
there is no light to see:
the torch
having been extinguished
by me.
so i dream in shadow,
and play in between
what was
and never could be.
walk
with me.
till the end. there are
so many
miracles there.
for here,
where we are
alone,
the magic is
lost,
the moment-
forgotten.
this fire,
but an errant spark
of your fading desire.
night falls
as we seek another day.
till then,
on these words
i pray.
as thunder gently caresses
the edges of my sanity,
the calm of inevitability
crashes down
upon my head.
wild and true,
a crescendo of Love
personified,
slowly calcifies into
me,
and you.
cloud break; time
shift
bring more nether
in which
we lose ourselves.
i step securely upon wisps
of desire
and sink
so low
into your celestial wonder-
to pause again,
gasping,
for milk
and
honey.
and the rain falls
again
gently caressing
these expectant lips.
the tingling, stinging frost that rips my skin
belies the blistering heat
flowing from a soul afire.
bathe me in your grace,
as I writhe idolatrous,
drowned in our pleasure:
devouring your succor;
hungering for more.
underneath, and
between the rapturous birdsong,
and
hovering over every golden burst
of dawn,
lies
Fear,
greedily waiting
to devour your flame.
waiting
to sap your pleasure
waiting
for your fall.
Except,
the beauty of nightingale’s sorrow,
and
the blinding glory of our favorite star
lifts true believers
above the pesky threats of love.
so,
my cumbersome angel,
come,
glide
on winds untold,
and let us,
together, fall
eternal
cold hearts dream
of lost childhoods.
but you & me,
we
founder together
in the crucible of our love.
squealing delirious,
and dancing with glee.
and the wonder of youth rushes forth
on sweet tiny little feet,
greeting us with jubilant smile and wide trusting eyes.
our future is secure:
you,
you, &
me
lost in the distance,
and
wrapped
in memories yet to be,
i feel
our story calling,
happily.
walk with me; soar with me.
let us remember how to be free.
sundered
by circumstance,
distance,
and
time,
two hearts
glide shyly
across the moonshadow…
seeking
union;
&
yearning
to collide
once again,
and rejoin the
flow,
and
rise of Destiny;
&
freedom,
so that the miles are nothing more
but a dream
long
forgotten.
burning
with a desire,
for a future filled with delights;
nourishing the flame
of promise,
kindled
by the
presence
in each passng moment:
each kiss
&
every hello;
every embrace
&
every time we come,
or go.
so let us dance,
together,
under the moon’s light.
let our hearts be one
on this lovers’ night.
sliding
away
without a care,
Destiny calls your name.
will
you follow, or
stay?
do you even
remember
how to play?
dancing
into
infinity…
spinning wonders
stolen
from hot gossamer winds,
pregnant with promise, lust, and adventure.
sinking deeply,
into the beauty
of our love.
now,
here comes the rain
and the thunder,
and all the magic in-between.
let us weave tales of beauty,
and of love, and
Angels shall fall
to hear our song.
