Three Days

A year ago I thought "only a year from now...."


Three Days

Three days to go
a year ago
we would have walked
a leaf-laden path
in the cold
refreshing
rejuvenating
cold

Three days to go
a year ago
I would have danced
a star-struck path
into your arms
death-dealing
soul-saving
arms

Three days to go
a year ago
you would have traced
a sand-stormed path
into my arms
non-judging
just-holding
arms

Three days to go
a year ago
we would have forged
a moon-lit path
into forever
redeeming
conceiving
forever

Lost and Found

On a path to finding myself...


Lost and Found

Haunting dreams show forth their truth
waking moments fade in time
Lost from self, from playful youth
found in depths of sleeping mind

Longing heart draws strength from sun
rain and snow and leaves and sky
Lost from self, from child-like fun
found in depths of gazing eye

Mending soul finds peace at last
'lone in thought to courage find
Lost from self, from doubting past
found in hope of better times

Home

...


Home

Ghosts of a girl lost long ago
haunt my dreams, how I miss her so
Child-like wonder brightens her face
when fingers find themselves enlaced
with those of one whom she holds dear
who keeps her safe, with naught to fear
Never letting her feel alone
she found her one, her heart, her home

Ghosts of a boy lost long ago
haunt my dreams, how I miss him so
Strength and Honor his virtues true
always pushing his limits new
His girl beside, ever in love
he spreads his wings, soaring above
the fire inside, yearning to roam
returning oft, to her, his home

Ghosts of home lost long ago
haunt my dreams, how I miss it so
Life and laughter felt deep inside
fairy-tale love could never hide
from hearts and souls who became one
each time they met, mistakes undone
Together take on fears unknown
to protect this, their love, their home

27 Days

Fierfek.... the dreams that come just before daybreak... The restless mornings that follow... Why?


27 Days

Red and black
Fireflies and dancing
Butterflies and dreaming

Innocent hopes
Soft spoken at night

Imports and Muscle Cars
Metal and Techno
Boy and girl

Giggly "arguments"
Just to have them

Jack and Sally
Drakengard and PSO
Mac'n'cheese and PBJ

Bonding together
Preparing for forever

27 days...
The end of a beginning
And the beginning of an end
