Sweet dreams
my love with dreams dangling
before my eyes and fears trumpeting
in my ears, I turn to see your
smiling face and breathe into
silent clarity that your love
and my love are one

So I say sweet dreams to you
and know that I will be with
you if only in my dreams
this night and say that warm
kisses stay awaiting you
when we are together again. 

She Died...

she died of a broken heart
love given and pushed away so many times
she lost faith in everything
lost faith in herself and what
she believed in most—LOVE
give in to his words
that she will be nothing more then flesh
and now she is gone
leaving not behind but these words
no legacy to remember her name
she is silent with no disease eating at her
alone with a broken heart—a soul destroyed

Six Ways to Tomorrow

The highest walls enclosed the sun
In darkness I waited, we waited for a sign
Screams of nightmares echoing passed
The children crying—crying for a moment
Of truth in a world of delusions looking
Searching for tomorrow’s birth

Bright sunny visions cascading meadows
Of songs dancing on breezy moments
In fantasies I longed to go, we longed for reality
Prancing fairies fluttering from flower to flower
Shifting times into delusions of happily ever after
Seeking out tomorrow’s end

Symbolic daydreams, hallucinations of ghosts
Casting threats and fears like stones through
Glass walls that protect a fragile heart
Shivering moments of pleasure sending
Tingles and chills through flesh
Sucking up tomorrow’s memory

Walls outstretched beyond time lines
Years flying passed in a moment that
Seems like nothing yet everything
Why do we try? Why do we love?
Crumbling stone and brick revealing scars
Not wanting tomorrow to come

Promises of happy times—no more tears
Nightmares gone replaced by dreams
Sorrows killed like weeds by affection
The gardener sows the soil to plant anew
Reality shimmers into streams of sunlight
Tomorrow is finally here

As I hear the Sirens Blaring 

I sit frightened by the feeling growing within me
Frightened by the sirens blaring outside my window
My heart calling to you the words you are not ready to hear
My heart aches at the thought of losing you again

I ask and I pray to this eternal being that granted me this gift of you
Your presence in my life in my soul where I long to hold you
A memory of your kisses drifting through my mind sweet caresses
Floating lifting me into a dream that was our reality if but for one night

I sit frightened that I hold this emotion within my being
Asking to send these words to you to your soul that you know
That you know in the night a love reaches out to you my hand
Out stretched awaiting your return frightened by the sirens blaring

Outside my window, I send my love up to heaven in a song
That God might carry my words and love into your heart
To ease whatever pain lingers to know you are loved
That your love this love I hold has no bounds as has always been

I sit frightened by the idea that you will never understand
Yet thankful for each moment you are here I pray, I say
Spells and incantations to guardian angels to watch over you
As I wait as I’ve waited with open arms for you to see me

Standing here in front of you where I’ve been all along
And so I sit and I pray and say these words that you
That you will be here holding me and knowing me
Smiling at the flutter of my heart that your smile brings
