I watch,
listen,
and learn more,
as the forest
comes alive, and
the
vibrancy
emanating off
the floor,
speaks to me
in a language
never heard before…
light
dancing
with darkness,
as shadows
glow, and speak
of transcendence
leaves fall,
while I sprawl,
and continue
to listen
to two hearts,
intertwined now,
just like two vines,
dancing forevermore

complicated
memories,
like scenes
in an
uncommon mystery
dejection gives way,
reflection
comes,
and inside
we feel
that glow again, nay
fire,
burning bright,
without naught,
is alright
making sense
becomes
simpler,
holding the promise
of yesteryear
a kiss,
and a wish,
given to you, silently
whilst you slept,
nestled
so lovingly,
without notice
or a commingled
promise kept
two hearts
beat as one,
as light
enters the room,
shattering
the fragments
of loss felt
and, then
there’s
what’s left…
you
and me,
forever true,
as we finally say,
I love you
beauty unseen
in despair,
felt like a lead weight
across my chest,
and inside my heart, blessed
forevermore
is known, yet
time stood still
for a moment, grown
and,
unbeknownst to me
lasting an eternity…
felt
deep inside,
trees look at me, and
shake their limbs, they see
the magic
living inside of
every moment,
even those that feel
so solemn and swollen
with feelings
bound together,
configured
like a mass of pressure
growing
stronger over time,
unable to realize
the thread’s end
lives inside
awaiting a kindness,
often seen in my dreams,
I recollect all those
lost feelings, and
begin to pull the thread
closer to me
and,
as the thread comes forth,
the pressure subsides,
as the tears wash away
the pain of yesterday
so gray, and
at the same time
lighted rays fill my heart
with gratitude,
may I stay?
is a question
needed not,
leave off the clamour,
for its inside this space
where we’ll find the answer
heart bared,
and transfigured,
manipulated,
just like a trigger
pulled on
again, and again
I often
asked myself
then
where
did this
story begin…
in a
deserted
landscape, devoid
of senses, and
flushed
with ambiguity
we reflect
upon
those moments,
with a zeal
and flourish
and,
understand
today, they
kept us away
from the connection
we felt,
deep inside
actions
eluding us,
unable to take
ahold of
the unity dealt,
however, aligned
in
the presence,
and
knowing,
always arising, yet
unable to abide
in our heart’s center,
so bold and kind
and, years later…
the knowing
did not subside,
rather, it
grew deeper, and
shined forth,
just like
a star-
spangled night
the river runs
north and south,
feeling the drift
of the current begin,
letting go
of the trembling within
for now…
discovering
more on the banks,
eddies sharply tasked
with creating stability,
loose leaves raining down,
cascading,
for deliriums sake
a break…
not far away,
stowed, and a little
out of control
wanting to resign,
as the love
of my life
passes by
walking
along the shore,
greeting the love,
missed by a kiss,
forevermore, remiss
the light…
cascades
through the trees,
dancing, and
entrancing,
so majestically
touching
the being withdrawn
from within, so…
let us begin…
