For When I Was Lost
For when I was lost
I gazed into you
Like the flame of a single candle
You lit up the darkness
Kept the beauty of light alive
But as I gazed too long
Your glow began to melt
And then the light went
Not in you, but me
Your soul within mine
The touch not of a burn
The glint not of a flame
But the sleek of a mirror
I can see in this d...

Come on Home
You’ll never know, how much
I’m feeling
You’ll never know, how much
I need you
So come on home again
Please
Come on home again

To have loved how we loved
To have loved how we loved
Eyes locked, skin tender
To have loved how we loved
Hands clasped, lips traced
To have loved how we loved
Sea of brown, sea of blue
To have loved how we loved
Bodies ignited, spirits calm
To have loved how we loved
Unsung harmony, fragile peace
To have loved how we loved
Hidden darkness, returning comfort...

Heal my wounds
I pull the black dagger
From my heart
The weight of my armour
Now a fluid mercury
Not a poison to me
A release
I steep to one knee
Chest free
A pour of soft gold down your slender arm
Sheds the silver mercury away
Fills the wound that I
Cast upon myself
Your fingers brush me
As though they are lillies in my garden of Eden
Lustful inhale of...

Soulmates?
Soulmates.
Do souls exist?
If they do
I believe ours belong together.
I love u
I know that know.
Even after 5 years
I still do
I will never stop.
I pray
at night
for this one moment
this one second
with you
being able to tell you
how i feel.
Then
I couldn’t.
Last time I saw you
I nearly told you.
Back then
I was with him.

Ancient Hearts
We are ancient hearts
A beat so strong
We are the petals of love
A touch so gentle
We are the faintest shadows
A dance so deft
We are the flicker of candles
A flame so gentle
We are the trace of embers
A light so dim
We are one
A fate so destined
We are absent
A presence so cold

The Curse of Soulmates
The curse of soulmates sometimes if not always involves a third.
Three people. One two and three.
Two people who were bound to meet, the universes love children, twin flames so on and so forth.
And a Third. The ‘unlucky’ one.
The one who was a steppingstone for the other two souls.
A foreign limb.
This person is more often than not, tossed aside either by accident or on purpose...

Tinker
I am the Tinker
I take everything apart
I learn how it works
I put it back together
I make it better
I am the Tinker
He is the Tinker
He sees something broken
He has just the thing to fix it
He digs through his collection
He finds the missing piece
He is the Tinker
She is the Tinker
She inspects the Tinker
She can see his ticking heart
She watches a screw fall
She gives the...

I can hear the traffic in the distance
And some far away clock
Swoosh goes the early cars out to work
Phone vibrations drown out tick tock tick tock
He is not here with me ..the sofa feels
Spacious and empty
Oh does his hard labour resent me
He would rather be laid here with me
I'd rather he stayed here with me
His face lights up when he sees me

Reader discretion advised. “The Curse and the Cure”
I hurt for you,
Then, now, and my whole life through.
I hurt for him, her and the next,
For last time and this time, I’m a motherfuckin wreck.
No body knows that shit but me,
That this butterfly ain’t as free as she’d like to be.
I’ve lived this way,
It’s why I sway and sway,
I dance, in a trance,
In the dark, feel the expanse.
I've never had a choice,
But I’ve l...

Wayward Souls
He kisses your shoulder,
then your cheek.
His touch makes your knees weak.
How do I know?
Before you, and a dozen more,
it was me.
Now, I’m a faded memory,
as you will be.
Don’t believe me?
I too used to laugh at the absurdity.
He could never leave me.
As he grows older,
his women get younger.
Curiously, they look like me at 23.
How cruel fate ...

Todo el Tiempo
I think about you all the time,
without reason or rhyme.
You are like a tattoo,
on my mind.
Todo el tiempo.
Enternal souls,
intertwined.
Dancing, dodging,
in this cosmos
for a little while.
Creating sparks of love,
to lessen lonely nights,
and light up dark skies.

THE PASSING OF THE STORM
We survived all weather's all seasons each year
We are combined forces so bright we eliminate fear
I keep you near you keep me near
The reunion of souls so overwhelming so precious blinding ..piercing familiar brand new
My soul stopped searching and connected to you
Perfect fit the key turned so effortlessly
Locked tight combination code 11.11
Mixed eras one soul in sync transformatio...

Souls Remember
What is it about you that captivates me,
leaves my heart with a gaping hole.
You stay at bay,
but your muse has much to say.
Your poetic love shines,
creating a portal in time.
We share a cosmic kiss,
before falling into life’s abyss.
Souls remember,
what the mind forgets.

Gravity
We are as different
as the sun and moon,
circling the same universe,
with an omnificent God
you don’t believe in,
for adventures in love,
you among the trees,
me with my muse,
who today, lives in you.

River that flows in you
On a flowing river,
Crossing by the Mosis,
Trying to carry out a dozen of pain.
Felling again in your thoughts,
Smelling of the roses,
Standing by your side in your arms.
Would you like,
To me my life,
Crossing the might just for you.
Would you hold and be my soul,
Crossing the river that flows in you.
She said would you hold me,
God has just called me...

Maybe Next Time
Maybe next time,
I will get it right,
put up more of a fight,
won’t settle,
take control of my life.
Maybe next time,
I will find fortune and fame,
learn how to play the game.
Maybe next time,
I will see it through,
know the right thing to do.
Maybe next time,
you will love me,
as much as I love you.

Lost Letter
Last conversation
Stuck on replay
Wrote a letter
Scribbled on a few pages
Just to fall into the crevices
Of my heart
Words missing to a story untold
About two strangers afraid
To see what might unfold

Lucid Dreams
I want to sleep, so I can dream.
Dreaming makes the pain go away,
weakens my prison walls,
so you can rescue me.
I feel your warm breath on my face,
your loving embrace...
Hand-in-hand we run through the lush,
exotic island.
Our laughter echoes among the trees
as we look towards the horizon and
see eternity...
Dawn beckons me.

Muses, Sins & Soul Ties
Is it a sin for your muse
to inspire mine,
provide momentary escapes
from loneliness, pain,
the daily grind,
give words to fantasies
of the mind,
connect soul ties.
It’s hard to believe
a God of love
would consider musing
a crime.
If it is, that’s not a religion
to which I subscribe.

Kindred Spirits
How can it be that you
are on the same
spiritual path as me...
God exists as
infinite energy.
We keep coming back
as various entities
until we learn
life lessons
from history.
Love is eternal
as it should be.
Writing is our way of
understanding everything.
We cross oceans of time
to find our flame.
Kindred spirits we are,
lost and lonely...

Shadow Dancing
My shadow dances with yours
in the abyss of silence,
head down, darkness all around,
waltzing towards sparks of light
from our melded soul.

Ghost
You disappeared without a trace.
For years I didn’t see your face.
I believed the lies,
that you died.
Maybe you did,
on the inside.
Your essence never went away.
Behind me, beside me, within me
night and day.
You haunt me.
That’s the way I want it to be.
Love is a mystery.

Destiny Bound
You think you can
break my heart
without breaking
your own?
We are one.
Your tears
are my tears.
My tears stream
down your face.
Interwined energy,
we try to escape,
but it keeps pulling us back
to this silent space.
You turn away,
nothing to say,
rue the day.
I laugh through the tears,
because I know we will be
bound again for years,
lifetimes...

My Pied Piper
I drink of you often
in my day dreams
about night things.
When I'm lost and alone,
you soothe my soul
with your sweet melody
that dances on the wind
and carries me
to a faraway place
where love never ends.

Love Letter to My Muse
All day long
I think of you.
I can’t wait to get home
to be with you,
to feel your ink drip
between my fingers.
You are my love,
my passion,
my muse.
I know you will
never leave me.
We are bound
by a legacy of words,
that braids our soul.
Our poetry echoes
through time and space,
leaves a soft place
for broken hearts to land.

Love Lessons
He loves her but,
she loves him,
but he loves the mirror
like his lost love loves selfies.
Adoration, pointing every direction,
like weather vanes in a hurricane.
Each unware their
love affair
is bound to end.
Love lessons often repeat
until we understand that
real love begins within,
then overflows to others,
making the circle of love
complete.

Not my soulmate
You’re not my soulmate
You’re not going to save me
But just take my hand.
You’re not my soulmate
Show me your imperfections
And I’ll show you mine.
You’re not my soulmate
My soul longs to grow with yours
Different, side by side.
You’re not my soulmate
But carry me into bed
Set me down softly.
You’re not my soulmate
But gaze deep into my eyes
Swim into the light.

For Hunter
I wish I could hide away from the rest of the world in your arms
bury my face in your chest only coming back up to kiss your kneck
Sometimes I miss the way you wouldn't call be by my name, but
instead called me beautiful
You swore to me late at night that I was your soulmate
but being soulmates wouldn't be enough to save you from your one true love

Soul Mates & Muses
You found your
soul mate?
I’m genuinely
happy for you!
Mermaids
and unicorns
are more common
than soulmates.
Please, do the lost
and lonely among us
a favor of great
significance,
Make her
your muse
so we can
feel love too.

The hypothesis
I panicked today.
The reality of my mortality hit me.
I believe in reincarnation, this manifestation isn’t the end.
But the finality of my current reality,
stirs a new uneasiness in my soul.
I Panicked today.
How could my soul ever survive
without you by my side,
The custodian of my heart,
in new life torn apart,
incomplete, unable to be one.

About Us
Passion consumed
eventually fades.
Passion capped
pursues us
beyond the grave.
This revelation
helps me understand,
our encounter was
never about us.
It was about our muses
intertwined in the
world of words.
We were denied
the lasting passion
we searched for
so we could write
our soul songs
for seekers
to see
the ectasy
and despair
that accompan...

My Dopamine
Your words flow
though my veins
and light up my soul
like nothing
I've ever known.
Chemical alchemy.
Cosmic destiny.
Beyond comprehension.
From another dimension.
Steam. My dopamine.

Boy
The first time I saw you I had to pour out my heart and drink it down.
Not like a poison but a love fuelled potion.
You have a beautiful persuasion, you have this magical notion.
I know that it's not just the view of the palm trees,
I can see it in everything you believe.
When you smile its so innocent and sweet,
It's such a cliche it knocks me off my feet,
I hold on hope...

Yellow
Her colour, yellow, brings exuberance to my life.
Yellow; a colour so unlike my own.
A scintillating, fluorescent perception
contrasting with my own dismal reflection.
Her colour, yellow, brings distinction to my life.
Yellow; who would have thought?
So, unique yet such a synonym,
altering my own shade from within.
Her colour yellow, brings significance to my life.
Yellow; ...
