where once, I laughed freely
butterflies danced in my
belly
and a spark I thought was extinguished
came roaring to life
we were only meant for a little while
life’s hardest pill to swallow, isn’t it?
I accept that I’ll always miss you
love can be cruel like that

picture this
i came across your picture today
and studied it awhile
you're not a handsome man
by anybody's measure
but you've got something else
elusive
indefinable

makes me want you
with a passion hotter than krakatoa
redder than rubies
a delicious felony of desire
warming me from the inside out
heating my skin
if you touched me
you'd get burned

and even if you did

You do not owe explaining yourself to anybody. Let them judge you. Let them show their true nature.

from my heart,
you captivated me so
I came alive
I’ve never wanted someone more
and then…
I am changed now
into who I am meant to be
and I’ve bid adieu
to the woman I was
before you

and by its light
I love you madly
and by its light
I love you madly
I miss many things in my life that are no longer present, but I know that it continues on, whether you want it to or not.
I miss many things in my life that are no longer present, but I know that it continues on, whether you want it to or not.
Your courage
To step into the light,
Let your shadow fall.
The sunshine is
One hundred thousand
Years in the making,
And it aches to
Touch your skin.

Rather seek the peace of the gentle, rolling wave - the ethereal, ever-changing clouds - the playful breeze - the sound of absence. Cultivate peace within.
Be a peace-filled presence - a beacon to all.

deeper than the one before
to fill the cavernous space in my heart
with a love that explores the very depth of our souls,
a love that isn’t afraid to cry,
to lust,
to forgive
a love that is omnipresent
and gives way to a version of me
that is constantly healing

the noise falls too
and I don’t ask for much,
but all I want
is to melt into you when it does,
with ease
softly,
gently
make the world go away
and keep tomorrow’s din
at bay
