mortal sins
only fractured
reflections
of naïveté
where words
float from muses
in twilight stillness
thriving in
bareness
lingering inside
passive minds
to see inside
one’s soul

Innuendo’s
in ante meridiem
whispers of the wind
through the eyes
of an innocent child
where I can dream
and capture the stars
visions of my youth
chasing butterflies
effervescent love
to laugh and sing
and write my song
*
the child in us
it somehow keeps us wild
it somehow keeps us free

your silence
in a song lingers
teasing my senses
with ravenous allure
*
where I move you
to the hidden corners
of my thoughts
trying to hide you
between the pages
of my aching heart
in which I daily muse
my spirit
moving back and forth
to the tired body
of a crucified cosmos
the endless quest
trying to avoid
or is it an illusion
your picture not fading
in vain, I remain
***
this wheel of hope
keeps teasing
while
your silent song
still lingers

reservoir of muse
in black and white
silent reveling afloat
upon cobalt dreams
cascading my mind
as ripples gently
splash the rocks
helping me untwine
searching for my
own reflection
while soft light brushes
internal rising flames
unspoken words
spins above
lingering like
poignant memories
the furor of promises
whispering…
*
return
to innocence

lamina
crescent
fading away
rush of
emotions
becoming
undone
contour in
silence
reflecting
her tears
frozen in floe
as dusk
finds it’s
fervor
keeping
allure
bleeding
into
the night
as she gently
rephrase
her memoir
of love
painting all
the stars
she took
and in
the eyes
of truth
chasing
utopia
***
she’ll find
what is
near

standing
at the edge
of my muse
adrift in
oceans of tide
lost in pain
where I
find memories
left behind
as I walk
through the
maze in
reflection
of stolen time
where
melange
of illusion
scatters
the mind
in dreams
beguiling
the truth
like echoes
of answers
erased
take me
to that
secret place
through the
darkness
as I still
go on
beneath
silence
and the tears
I weep
*
only time
