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.
dampened peregrinations
under winter scented showers.
seeking truth
from these endless
traverses:
crossroads of the then,
and the now.
and Fate
rolls on
incessant,
flashing, with epiphanous finality.
my rorschach,
now a gift
to you….
may your revelation
lead you home.
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
flame tipped wisps of morning
wane vainglorious into the coming day.
almost matching
the burning within-
almost.
but here inside,
i continue to rise.
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.
soothing in violent calm,
unquenchable and
relentless,
She sweeps the ash from the corners of your soul.
a storm
approaches.
are you ready?
.
lofted low, beneath
a smiling horizon,
your lover awaits with tantalizing
promise:
a brand
new
day
what has passed
may yet come to pass
for some,
but never for you.
you will miss
the calm whisper of moonshadow
which,
already slips
across this goosebumped skin.
memories
sweeter than summer jasmine’s nightly call
lead me astray,
and errant fireflies
light
the road to abandon.
i should…..
i should return.
return to what I know, but
perhaps home,
is where the wild things grow.
sliding soft &
ascendant
across a smoky void.
the sky is yours.
I lie awake
roused by a tantalizing touch,
stroking
the beast
inside….
and I throw back my neck
and devour
all
of
you.
yes,
I am still yours.
but,
perchance my honeyed words
of lust
and love
have grasped
a wisp
of your
splendiferousness,
and blasphemous vivaciousness.
,
and
for a moment as dear
as a wasp’s hair,
you,
are mine too.
grace-
imagined.
adoration
misplaced
hope-
…….
and now I wonder,
is your serene glow
but
a reflection of my wonder?
have you dreamt of my fire tipped words
dancing across your virgin lips?
blushing,
but for me?
I think so.
