I have stood on the edge of existence,
glanced at the vastness of all eternity
and witnessed the light of my spirit
in the tiniest glimmer in his eyes.

I Wait
I stand outside the doorway, time passes around me
as I wait for you to invite me in.
From time to time you chance to peer out and visit me,
Tho not but for a moment, only to retreat once again into
the corridors of your world.
I come back, day after day, year after year
to sit and wait once more.
Through the winters of your sorrow, I listened intently.
Through the Summers of your joy, my heart smiled.
Through the Autumn of your yesterdays, I remembered and
the Springtime of your tomorrows, I wait.
Through every season of your life I have waited.
Just beyond the towering walls of your heart.

Bittersweet Sorrow
With the setting of the sun and the misty night air
lingering on my bare skin,I breath and take in
the warmth of the summer.
A sigh of regret fills the silent world around me.
My thoughts scatter in every direction,as I try
to gather the pieces of my heart.
Stillness engulfs me all at once,
as the crickets chime in with a melodious song.
A soft breeze touches my face,I close my eyes
and feel you near.
The stars glimmer in the sky above,
a bittersweet taste crosses my lips as I
wipe the sorrow from my eyes,
only to await its return.

Broken
I lay in darkness to rest,
thoughts swirl in my mind like pages of well read book.I wait for an answer to the questions of the heart,dreaming of your face.How does one shut the door,the passageway to the deepest depths of their being.
How does one move forward when all the while looking back.
I ponder my existence.
How do I pick up the broken shards of
this failed love yet again.
I fear to touch it,for I will bleed if I am cut once more...,but alas! I take it into my hands and cradle it as tho it were a new born child, scrapping and cutting my fingers till the life blood runs down me in a river of tears,
An echo of sorrow pierces the silence that has consumed me.The daunting breath of my own sweet horror.
Dawn rises in spite of me.I feel her as tho she laughs,taunting me to face another day.
How cruel is the day.
How lonely the night I am faced with.
I wish to slumber,never to wake to this hatred I feel in the bottomless pit of my heart.
How dare the sun rise.
How dare I go on day to day with you haunting my very essence.
Where,if any shall I run to escape this endless rapture of my soul.When will the final curtain be drawn on a raggedy stage of lost dreams and plays never to be performed.
I can not turn to run, for you are in every direction, I dare not dream, for it is your face I see but,to wake and be parted from you is endless dis pare and regret.
Take the heart of me that I should not bear this burden, Take it from my chest and toss it to the wolves so that they may feast upon my misery.Take the life's breath from my lungs to bore away the sorrow and the madness I am compelled to.
Take it... and leave me rest.

Before you
Empty tears were all I had,
for years I cried a river of pain.
Lonely nights and a restless soul,
but all before you came,
and brought a smile of happiness
into my life.

Renewed
There was once a time the birds had no song,
The ocean crashed upon an empty shore,
The night was as vast as space where no
stars had been born,and the heart mourned for love.
Then suddenly there you were,breathing new
life into my soul.With one touch of your hand,
the pain of my past ran down my cheeks,
and disappeared into the world from which it came.
The sun set in the sky like blazing fire,
and there was a symphony.The birds took to
their song in chorus.I felt the splendor
of life like never before.
My heart beat against my chest as though
it were trying to escape my bosom.
and the stars, oh the stars, burst into
the midnight sky,shedding light over my world
like fireworks on the new year.
Born again I was,the first night you held me.
Your arms clinched around my body.
I could feel your every breath with mine.
You took my hand and led me to places
I had only envisioned in my dreams.
Showing me the wonders of your world.
You came into my life when all I had
was total desperation.
The thought of love was only a mirage
in the desert winds.An image of a time long
forgotten stored in the attic of my heart.
You rescued me from the abyss I had slipped
into, so dark and cold.The abyss that swallowed
me whole and held me captive in my misery.
Since that day, my world has been
full of the splendors of life, of you.
You have mended my heart with the threads of love.
And strengthened my soul with yours.
You are my all, my everything, My one Love

"Back to you"
I sat today in deep thought,
my memories became renewed.
To a time my soul stayed lost
in the eyes of a love that I
once knew.
I felt it pause, then beat again
my heart, was all a flutter.
As my mind revisited the pathways
back to a love unlike no other.
The sweet simple smile that
lit your face,the softness of your skin.
The gentle embrace my heart longs for
that was lost so way back when.
But,my memories they still linger,
as fresh as the morning dew.
They bring me back to a love so pure,
they bring me back to you.

Yearning Hearts
Chance,karma,destiny
call it what you may.
starry eyes of a lovers soul
that came to pass my way.
On a late night early spring
two worlds became as one,
in a passionate kiss and
a tangled embrace,that
could never be undone.
For all that was and will be
laid claim upon my heart,
never knowing of tomorrow
or if our worlds would part.
I gave myself completely,
there was no compromise,
for everything that mattered
was in my lovers eyes.
There was no time nor space,
no future or a past
just a promise of a love
that knew it could not last.
And so, the night passed on around us
and with time, also change
and all things that had bound us
were forever rearranged.
Tho years have come and gone
yearning hearts still left constrained
true love has not forgotten,
precious moments that remain.

Open Book
An open book sits half read,
pages torn and tattered hold
not words but memories.
Between lines of black & white
the wonders of life's adventures,
struggles,love found and lost,
battles of the past and hope
of the future.
You may choose to flip through
the pages of my past, sit for a
spell to marvel in the joys of my present
or travel into the chapters of pages
I have not yet written.
If only you choose to read.

Reflections
At the end of the day,
when all is quiet and there is time for reflection,
will I be that person I wish to see,
or just an empty shell,
of what was once greatness.

Broken wing
My broken sparrow,
time will heal all things
and soon your wounds will mend.
you will learn to soar
and your heart will love again.
