Seuil



I stood there looking foolish


to maybe, only- me


while the rest of the world


went about playing the living


As you walked away in my silence


my heart was breaking inside


until the deafening sound


tore my soul- inside out


 


Beneath the sun and stars


snowflakes and the drizzling rain


we laid, engulfed in each others arms


All those dreams we spoke about


became dark thunders clouds


in all my tomorrow days


And I will barely survive them all


to prove I’m willing to endure for love


whatever it may take, as my proof


 


I- couldn’t have loved anyone


but you- that’s just my truth


And I know what it means now


that you’ve really moved on


Taking the sun and leaving me in fog


I’ll remain lost- in time and space


between the silence and yesterdays


Standing foolishly, just waiting…for you

I’ve been lost and found, or so I thought


and life seemed happy in but, moments


Even the sun boasted with pure colorful joy


Rain was soothing on our bare skin, at night


but before I woke, you up and went- away


leaving me behind, lost, in a discarded shade


as if, I was just another kiss, untold by you


Now- every step feeling like a crumbling floor


I easily lost you and myself back in November


but when the month changed to May


I never even noticed- the change of days


Oh! I can still feel the crisp morning mist


that was left chilling like ghost on my lips


when reality alerted my sobering awareness


as rain drops fall more like snowflakes now


masking footprints where I alone walk on


and the sun secretly cries behind veils of gray


while I peregrinate this silent beach in memories


Knowing now- there isn’t enough ocean waves


that could ever wash you away from…my heart

I miss the whispers of the whorl


that wrapped around me


insulating from nothingness


taking and giving everything at once


Akin the hum of an electric current


that pulsated generously life songs


Oh, how so numb and deaf I feel this day


so lost amongst all time and space


She was that caressing enigma


that magical wand the universe waved


and at times weaved into my heart


piercing every beat in motion


with tethering fabric of her own essence


knotting our wantoning reverberations


as I- breathlessly and ineffably… felt loved

Even an arid desert can weep


while laying alone beneath


the shade of a cold dark night


between shivers and lip quivers


while still longing for the dream


in living prismatic color schemes


that proffer’s a rainstorm…lover

Inexplicable
		
	
	

		
I really can’t explain


what my heart needs- in words


when feelings feel things 


far deeper than a desire 


I often start but fall in silence 


as the ache within suffers 


Some feelings lack understanding


and a way to depict their pictures


But darling, you reflect the face 


of being their only answer


If you don’t love me, I’ll understand


but if you could, at least stick around


so I can point to you, if I’m asked 


I know I must seem to complicated 


for those fluent in loves language


but none of this comes as easy- for me


O’ how much plainer can I say it


for love to be my full filled dream? 


Only my heart…knows what it needs

Symphonious
		
	
	

		
Like a gurgling brook meanders mindlessly


and wild Jasmine intoxicates far and wide


I’ve long felt for that one bucolic meadow


where painters can taste heaven, in the air


and it’s soothing sound is found in colors


that change in constant flow of a marbled sky


and we- create memories of our naked picnics


drenched in wine, laughter and living…love
