Another Day

Another day, another month
They come and go so swiftly
I blink and then turn the page
And the seconds race right by

Another tear falls over my skin
To join the river cried before
Moving on seems so easy
Just one step then one more

Today is just another day
It begins and ends in night
The sun rises then falls away
The moon will come again

Strength comes from lifes adventures
It lifts us from the grief of this world

Imprint

Upon my heart there is a scar
It's the imprint of your love
Indelible by time or space
This wonderful touch of you
Eternal bliss your legacy
Given to me so sweetly

Upon my memory there lies
The imprint of your face
Smiling as we danced
Eyes sparkling with joy
You whirled me round
Our feet in perfect time

Upon my soul there is
The tiniest piece of you
It's the imprint of your love
Forever remembered here
All I have to do is close my eyes
And I feel it once again

Guardian Angel - for ANN

The guardian angels comfort you
Bring you peace and relief
From all the pain that visits
They lullaby you off to sleep
With their potions and spells
Easing your soul to the gateways
Your spirit lies with these angels
Throughout your final flight
Take strength from their serenity
As they choose to walk your path
Holding your hand as you weaken
Carrying you when energy leaves
Float you with the water lilies
When your mind needs to wander
Their courage is amazing as they move
Through your pain and anger
To see beyond the fear inside
And still remain to help you leave

Ripple of Silver

Smile spread across features
As love traces a pathway
Finding itself inside my heart
Facades shatter as reality
Defrosts hopes left behind
Replacing with the heat
Of future grasped tightly
Eyes wide open in surprise
At the strength of this emotion
Uninvited but still welcomed
With abandoned pleasure
Whats gone cant be retrieved
But my eyes look to the horizon
Seeing that ripple of silver flowing
Forward to seek my soul out

Arrogance

Sometimes it pours like hot
drips of melted wax from a candlestick;
your migraine.

I wanted armistice.
Untangle the lies,
I am not in your firing line.

The tulips in the barrel of your gun
cannot forgive the bullets.
There will be no ceremony after the funeral.

Give a slice of blue departure
of moon to light the beach,
there was a brutal murder on the lake

among the muffled waves of protest
in the home of insanes, who were
praying for the sun to return.

World Undiscovered-For Jay

To reach out and touch skin
To caress and feel the rythmn
As it moves with each breath
The smoothness of its surface
Glistening with a gloss of tan
Honey colouring fading to white
As the season draws to its close
Tracing delicate patterns across
A face relaxed in sweetest sleep
Eyelid genty flutters as dreams
Slip over your visage and away
I watch the parade of thoughts
A transition from sleep to waking
Crystal clarity of mind is mine
Lying wide awake remembering
The scenes that float before you
Of ships that sailed and vanished
Carrying our love on its voyage
Through a world undiscovered

Mirror...For Mother's Day

True love

Will remain always

In the heart of a mother

Unasked for

It lives on inside the spirit

That remembers the mirror

Of love

Open Heart for followmyblack

Hands reach to hold
As the soul soars high
Pulling at the tendrils
That hang from its feet

Drifting behind like smoke
We watch as distance builds
A void we can't step over
Opens gaping between

Earthly feet can't tread
Upon heavens floors
They remain below here
To wait in restlessness

Open your heart wide
Let go of their memory

Warrior Woman

In my wildest dreams I never thought
I would be the person I have become
Just the quiet little mouse I used to be
Now become a warrior woman fighting
For what she thinks is hers by right
The chance to live each day in peace
Serene and wise maybe I would be
But first comes the battleground
Long ago I was so scared of life
Now I grab it by the throat tightly
And face all it brings me head on
I'm not afraid of anything anymore
Not even time itself can phase me
The new day brings its challenges
I smile and take a step with hope
Nothing more will ever beat me

Honeyed Lips....

Light falls
Across her sweet face
Smiling with pleasure at her thoughts
Complete love
Stirs inside her heart so sweetly
Bringing desire in its wake
Quietly
Her soul
Begins to stir, stretching out
For his arms to embrace tightly
Passion breaks
So slowly over her body
Like the waves upon the shore
Ebbing
Washing
Her senses with love
Emotions flow swift through her veins
Traces left
Of the honeyed lips upon hers
Half remembered touch of him
So strong

Circles

Endless searching, seeking through time
Fingers reaching to draw out memories
While the mist slowly settles over
Suffocating your senses like a blanket
The shutters in your soul slide down
And you sit in a twilight room of life
Confused by simplicity. driven by fear
A seconds rest, so precious to me
Becomes this shadow walk to eternity
Morpheus enters then withdraws leaving us
To struggle with monotonous circles
Tattooed upon our skin like scars
Here we reside in the half light
While the world continues to turn

Time Heals

Time heals

Or so they tell me

Love can scar, they forgot to say

A single word

Can devastate, wound and destroy

Sweet tenderness in a heart

So soft

I Love You Mom.

Mom, you're the light to my world
the sun to my galaxy
the petals to my flowers
the beat to my heart
I love you mom.
