Song of the Day

Sometimes I feel as if the choices I make are all predicated on the choices of others.
That despite my so called autonomy, I am waiting.  Sometimes I wish that others would act as I do.  Would see my heart resonant as I see theirs and say you. I want you.
I would move the heavens for such a person. But until that day there is me, feeling this

Song of the Day

perhaps a bit late for the song of the day, but it took me awhile to realize that this is what my heart was singing.  It took time for it to filter to my consciousness

A promise to you

Say the word

Say the word
I’ll fly to your side
Heedless the cost

I’ll pay the price
Accept the fallout
Whatever comes

To hold you
To dance
To sing
To whisper my intentions

Say the word
I’ll be there

Mirage 

I’m waiting in this heat
For the spark
To propel me to your side
Revealing all the things I hide
Not in deliberate pose
But from trepidation
Can’t stand the thought
Cause honesty is all I got
Ask me anything
I’ll speak it

Simplicity itself

It’s simple
I love you
It’s simple
You’re beautiful
It’s simple
We fit
It’s simple

Except its not simple
It never is
But complicated is better
It’s more real

Simple is a dream
The thing we say that
we want before we know
what we want

It’s difficult and messy and perfect for its imperfections.

 I don’t want a fairytale

I want what comes after the curtain fall What comes after happily ever after

I want all that you are
I’m not delusional, I’m just a romantic

Finding home

sleep
eyes closed heavy
pulled down from consciousness
Arms encircle
holding against the night
scents mingle
ease down
tensions release
blood and bone
safe

The scent of you
And the promise of another night
Together

Reading tea leaves

The mercurial kiss of stone
Carves me down
Tracing petals
Fall, rushing
Sigils drawn in my bones

Our lips meet, soft and welcome
Missing your fingertips every day
Phantom dreams
Of what we’ve yet to share

Tracing patterns in heather
No touch the last

My cat

Stalk me as your prey
Pounce and take me as you will
Claw and bite
My lovely kitty cat

Feelings upwell in the afternoon light

You haunt my dreams
A regular reoccurance
who is anything but regular
As slow as you want
As fast
I’m here
