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.
