W a n d e r e r

...

I search the galaxy

for a love like yours

I am always looking

drifting through space

and touching the stars

you are my sun

you are my moon

and I

an endless wanderer

that travels

through your heart

swimming

in the deep oceans

that are your eyes,

such blissful joy

to be by your side

to stand in the warmth

and glow of your soul

I search the galaxy

for a love like yours

but can't seem to find

because an inner beauty

such as yours

can only be found once

so I stay in your arms

and tremble slightly

for the World's power

and the Universe's depth

can be as cold

as it is wide...

but tonight

is just a bliss for

a wanderer

such as myself,

because you are near me

gripping me tightly,

keeping me

safe

and anchored

to your

loving heart

winter’s snow

snowflake

melts

in

my

hand

disappearing like a dream

and turning into tears

drops

hitting

the

ground

and uniting with the soft snow

I look up at the sky

dark

clouds

heavy

above

my head

I stare and notice more snow falling down

in the shape of heavenly snowflakes

miraculous

on

their

own

formed and sculptured in the shape of

perfectly

designed

stars

twisting and whirling themselves

in the white galaxy

of crystal ice

a curious light

Today I saw

an amber light

tucked away

in the smallest of gems

I found it buried in the sand

picked it up

and held it tight

felt the warmth and peace that

sparked from within

lifted it to the sun

feeling the cool breeze

from the sea,

and as the gold poured from

the tiny jewel

I smiled feeling alive

such beauty it shone

such magic within

I spread my fingers

and let it breathe

with the water

the sand

and the wind

today I got a present

straight from the waves

brought on the sand

and forever beheld in my heart

this

small

enchanted

amber light

In search of time...

I have been sailing

to you

my light

I sailed through time and space

I traveled the galaxy

and swam in the deep waters

of your heart

drifting in the warm sea's

surrounded by the nightly sky

a million and one stars

dotted like an expanding map

to guide me on my way

to the future

of our days spend together

your radiance my compass

through the dark paths of the universe

I traveled a lot

and saw even more

yet still, I don't know

I don't even possess

the tiniest clue

Do you know this truth, my starlight ?

Can you really guess ?

for I have the knowledge

that suppresses the time

and starts with a bang

that disrupted the sky

dark matter

and planets aligning as one

a fusion of life

the start of mankind

and the mighty elements

that control our lives

all that and I still don't know

but you can tell me, my Aurora

with your colors bright

please spare me a while

and whisper the answer softly

if ever you should be so kind

What's the time on the Moon ?

What

makes

us

believe

when

everything

crumbles

and

turns

to

dust ?

What

makes

us

hope

when

all

is

lost ?

revolution

spheroid

the ellipsoid of revolution

my revolution,

so wrap yourself

around my sphere

embrace this

void

as it rotates around you

the galaxy isn't far from us

though we are apart

like the moon

is distant

from the Earths closeness

not together

but not apart

the energy and the magnitude

working its power

to the gravity of its sphere

that causes the waves

and gives a light

that brakes the darkness in half

the earth responds

with a quake and a shiver

they are stronger together

they shine for each other

the stars

the moon

the earth beneath my feet

a spheroid

the

ellipsoid

of revolution

of a heart

............................................................

A spheroid, or ellipsoid of revolution, is a quadric surface obtained by rotating an ellipse about one of its principal axes; in other words, an ellipsoid with two equal semi-diameters.

Sunshine

My sunshine

tastes

like rasberries

covered in love

and sprinkled

with

powdery sugar

just like

a sweet caress

of a day

so blissfull

and smelling like

the flowers

floating

in my dreams

the endering taste

of

my

heated

skin

as the colors

turn

from creamy peach

to a delicate

hazelnut brown

the sunrays

on my lips

flavoured

delicoiously

like a summer's daze

my sunshine tastes

like your love

as one

we are hearts set in motion

spirits that rise up

and fall together

there's a spark of life

between us

a magical bond

that suppresses the time and space

flowing through our bodies

cascading the tiniest of atoms

into a miracle that we

so freely call life

like a power far beyond

the understanding

of anything

that

makes us real

that

makes us humans

we are interconnected as one

all the same dark

and light matter

Can you feel it?

Can you really say

that you

are better or worse

than me,

or the one next besides you?

When in truth we are

the same

body

the same

soul

the same

voice

amazing creation

writers have a certain

passion for words

an understanding

of the human spirit

and the feelings

that revolve around them

and there are also those

who share a love for those words

and hold them with kindness

caring for other souls

and keeping their hearts open

to the world that surrounds them,

gentle spirits who still fight

for what they believe

and survive all of their struggles

a soul like that I have met myself

she is a bright star in the night sky

with a light that had to

grow faster than others

and now awaits a being

to match her kindness

I put my trust in her

and know that she will find a person

that will be her friend,

lover, and confidant

because she deserves all of those things

she is magic, wonder, and love

put together in one

amazing creation

a mixture of senses

familiar noises reach my head

the sounds of views long forgotten

I wrap myself around

with the feeling of the past

my skin hearing the velvet whispers

of the touch that was once mine

and delivered by your words and pleads

when you asked for more

and I stared at you with my mind

my eyes reading your lips

and the echo of your voice

filling my aching heart

I remember the passion

and yet I forget the pain,

you were the angry fire

against my raging storm

I hear your muscles tensing against mine

and see the electricity

that surged through our souls

I cannot define my love for you

only the taste brought by your smile

those memories I always hear

when the wind brings the touch of spring

so once again

I cover myself with the past

only to see the sounds

that brought me so much rapture

hope

I stare at the world

my eyes searching

for something more

I float

I soar

I dream

eyelids fluttering

as it all comes into life

stardust on my fingers

the milky way under my feet

the universe at my hands

a light lost in space

darkness spread on the edge of my mind

a loving heart

cradled in your arms

once found

now again without a home

barefoot I stand

sharing my soul

confiding in your thoughts

yet they leave no trace

of my tries

of my hopes

of my love

I hit a void

just after I crash against your walls

don't hold me back

when I want to fly

don't put me down

when I want to be held

I need the warmth

yet I get none

I yearn for the fire

to burn my fears

and cover myself in ashes

so I can be reborn

I want it... but do you?
