Tangled weeds thread hope
and despair
through the nub of desire
a sensuous screenplay
evoking memories of you
softened by time
by the wind
and by the telepathy
between two souls destined to begin
again
one moment
mirrors the next
as time becomes irrelevant —
existing
are two
made of one
a shadow, and a prayer
calling down the hopes of another sun

I saw you once from across the room
you were there, and not.
A cataclysmic revival, and rejuvenation
found in your essence
and in your presence. Though I didn’t know it then
it was only a matter of time
until we began
to move in a more choreographed way. Confiding
in each other felt like times before.
These previous lifetimes, and planes
of existence bared in the soul
between two lovers
knowing all along they’ve done it before.
What’s New with Me
All is very well here, super busy and engaged across many projects, both personal and professional.
Due to these obligations, I am going on an indef ..read more

There is truth in the wind —
recognizing
the pain, and the uncomfortableness of a past
faint, and dim
yet lit brighter than any star
within
an atrocity of revelations –
understanding
this life
a way-station
and non-dual exercise
playing out in a duality of heart
and mind

You speak to me in tongues
a chronicler of the past
and of a future yet to be known
regarded with trust
and with the dust of the unknown —
a kindred happenstance
wandering through the calm
and through the chaos of so many fenced-in streets
alone

I find you in memories
crowded in the mind, and in the mist
in between
the rain —
bittersweet
am I
and in awe of a promise to keep
to you, and to me
a prized possession —
love
blossoming
underneath the mountains hearth
our home
among the chaos
and the calm of the shadowed streets

I read, and write
about the source
and about the legacy of you close—
dappled light
is hard to find
yet, picturesque moments continue to bespeak the wind
and all you’ve given
to me, and to the trees
a sonorous sound twinkling in the sky
reminding me it is always you
upon which I will rely

I learned from you
and the sumptuous sky
about lessons in pain
and in love
at times
there is no dignity
in a world devoid of feeling
and of knowing
yet, the world continues to spin
on the gravity of your gaze
and on the wellness held at bay
in a spinning top of purple haze

I rise like the sun
mornings amid amber gold
a wince, and a nod
untie the ties that bind —
rebooting
time
and those in, and out of rhyme —
dancing
to tunes known
and unknown
a home
boycotting
the status quo
are jewels of existence
dwelling within those that grow

I yearn
for charcoal-colored skies
where faith
and pain live together
conjoined
by tender loving hands entwined —
a paradox
and
a well of human possibility
bequeathed
to you, and me
underneath
the shade of the beautiful birch tree

I manifest
the past, and the present
a prompt
riddled with uneasiness
and contentment —
colors
swirling in mind
reaching underneath a heart confused
and terrified
of acting rashly
and of being understood
absently
less known, than unknown
believing in the truth
within your hearts’ stone
