Ocean Sway (first Prose post)
Oh love, wash me away
leave nothing of me
where I was
and where I’m not
You shall be
living, breathing
all of me;
and we shall live
beyond ourselves
at last
lost in love
one so vast.
fight or flight
He said these words to me
“You have Flight or Flight, you fight but fly off every time!!!”
This stung
but truth is not meant for feeling.
Reeling slightly, I stumbled
“Yeah, I guess but it’s always been for the best”
Yet with him, I fled when truly I should have planted my feet instead.
Heaven help me,
hindsight is foresight
and this last endeavour
taught I am not always in the right.
framing him
You double expose my film
every time, blurring lines
like the lens can’t quite focus
there’s always light strands
making you tinsel in colour
hues beyond words, floating
and that sideways smile
keeps me trying to capture
your perfection
been afraid of changing because
I built my life
around you
¥{}¥{}¥{}¥{}¥{}¥{}¥{}¥
here I am
moons later
oceans tide,
so low
these heart beats
slowly waning
I ask thee true
“Have we sailed too far from the blue, to make our way back out of this storm ? “
as you try and find land, I wade in the shallow covered in these shifting sands...
proverbial fork
You’ve become ice blue
like glaciers passed Meziadin
where we’d build fires
just to be close
before the next bend
your amber coals
fed me warmth
flaming heart smiles
Why are you so cold my love ?
I wonder, as I look back from whence we came.
Your colours have changed...
Soft Landings
I am a mess, let's not pretend, it's simply complicated as dates roll up on me like crips and bloods running wild.
Deactivated my Crackbook once again, memories can be evil this time of year.
I have lost so many friends I give, ya know?!
Like ENOIUGH already but everyday brings LIFE and the way LIFE goes, flows, fast and slow, here I AM.
One of my oldest friends had a stroke
(no sympathy please, he is a lost boy and refuses to growup)
and I realized in a blink he would be another star.
I am ready for peace, for quiet, for life to be still and be one with my being.
Today I AM and tomorrow I WILL be as well.
I Love who I AM and that my friends is quite simply ENOUGH.
Love Peace

pity party
all are invited
though,
no shows are a norm
I swirl and perform
mirror, mirror, I do recall
though,
certainly not the fairest of them all
I can sing and dance
and hope by chance to be seen
I am Queen Bee,
lonely or alone,
all has nothing on me
You still beat within
I still forget how to breathe
have mercy on me
