Autumn walker.
The chill and quiet
Wind blows through, and I exhale.
Crisp and brutal, but you give me the gift one more time.
Autumn walker, who are you?
What is today? What can I make of it?
My oldest friend, I love you.
Passing seasons; another ring on the tree.
Hold me as I grow frail, and never let go.
My first love, and last. Let me go home in your arms.


As you shiver and shake.
Tremble.
A quiet, small death as the French would say
I grab you; hold you.
This is worth a tiny death
I gotta say, best damn thing I've ever felt.
I think about you
In the dusk hours of the night.
I gotta work harder.
Faster.
Full of magic and all that sort of thing.
If I work hard enough,
You will be mine.


Shiver and shake.
The day is cold
I am imperfect, but I never have been anything else
Just know
Shiver and shake.
I am here for you.
I am yours as much as you are mine.
I wouldn't have it any other way.


Subtle and silent.
My feelings move like the wind;
Strong, with force, but gentle as things change
I miss you.
In the long hours of the night
They make me chill, as feelings do
Just like the wind.
I am cold but
I remember your warmth.


Mirrors.
We face each other, seeing the same thing.
Our movements; our face, flesh.
We are the same.
I love you because you are a reflection of me.
Imperfect but good.
I am you and you are me.
I look at you and see myself.
As it goes.
Thank you
For seeing my reflection.


Solace and solstice.
The nights grow long and dark.
Unrelenting, as things are.
I had one constant.
One rock.
You.
Brought to my knees, but still intact.
You gave me the gift of hope.
Best damn thing I've ever got.


Calm and composed, as things stood.
Still like the waking night.
Your smile. It reminds me of a painting.
Perhaps you are my masterpiece.
Maybe I am wrong.
But I love you.


Quiet like thunder
Loud like rain
Every inch of you means so much to me
I sit and stew and try to be quiet.
Like a mouse.
Running throughout.
I miss you, in these long hours
And they are long.
I miss you.


Raucous
Loud.
Our love is like a falling leaf,
But also a tempest as needed.
I love you.
I will be your hurricane if you will be my cloudburst.
As long as we are there for each other.
It will be our tempest.


Fighting winds of change
Trying to hold you near
Intensity
As things go
I draw you in, and hold you close.
Breathing into you, as you do for me.
The calm is coming. I can feel it draw near.
I am lucky to be yours.


Shadows wake
Shadows fall.
I cast my own,
In my own image.
The sun blots out me.
In the night, the cold cool air.
It guides me.
In the moonlight,
My shadow stands.


Shadows of doubt.
You burn brightly
Illuminating my way.
Casting shadows
Casting flickering flames.
Our love burns brightly.
As flames do.
Burned before, but your flames heal.
Strange.
I love your warmth.


As dawn fleets to day
Our eyes meet the sun
Cold warmth.
I think of your smile
Of your laugh
I watch you and hope you don't notice.
The nights are always long and dark.
Nothing new under the sun, as it is.
I think of your smile.
It is my drug.
It's all I can think of.


Breathless, I stand before you.
Desire
It hungers me.
To hold you;
To love you.
I want nothing more.
Give me your gift.
Give me your smile.
I can finally rest.


Crashing waves.
Tides that run in, out.
That soothing sound,
And the sunrise.
Violent as they come in,
Calm as they retreat.
It swallows me,
For a moment we are whole.
One beautiful being.
I drift into your abyss,
And you drift in to me.
My best lover.


Shattered
The downpour
Cuts me like knives.
Broken and decrepit
Full of despair and agony
I remember you.
When we were whole.
Complete.
The glass can be replaced.
We can be healed.
A new day.


A coin
Token of value,
But history of life.
Food and wine,
Possibly a womans touch.
It has lived far longer than we ever can.
Spend it with care,
As history tends to remind us.
A trinket or novelty;
I hold history in my hand
When I hold yours.


You breathe in
Anguish and rage.
Exhale strength and determination
You have not only become your own hero,
But mine as well.
Fire and fury.
A force of nature.
I will find a way to make you mine.


Forged in fire
Hardened by flame
You bind me to you.
I hold you, as you hold me.
With each other,
We will never be separated
Bound in union,
I am yours, and you have become mine.


Terror
It rips through me
Any path I could walk
Would hurt someone I love.
I bleed tears as sorrow
It fills me like a burning void.
I will seek isolation
Where I will cause no harm.
This is my fate.
This is my destiny.


Silent
Alone as I reflect
In the waking day.
I dream of your sunrise.
I will feel warmth.
Through that warmth, I can breathe
It illuminates
The darkness of my life.
You are the reason I will survive.
Frost in the morning
That melts away.
I will always find you, guiding star.
I will make sure that you find me.


Smoke
Mirrors
The truth is that I left
Fear of love
Fear of danger
I ran because the winds of past
They chased me
And they brought me back to you
A cyclone in love
I am that cyclone,
Always with you.
I am you; you are me.
We are together.


Caustic
Chaos and uncertainty
It cuts through me
A knife of ny own creation.
I bleed emotions
Into the air.
Maybe the new day will be better.
Maybe it will belong to me.


Crystaline
Brittle
I see through you, as you see through me
You hold me,
As I hold you.
Wine from the heavens,
I drink in your spirit and you drink in me
Together,
We are in spirit.


Torment
Anguish.
It fills me
A chilling breath
That escapes me.
So I sit breathless
No wind within.


I live through the lens
Of watching myself die.
I have become my own sonata
As things go
I drift away.
Conflict and peril
Of my own hand
A firestorm.
I feel the world tremmer through me


The sky
As dawn settles
Or as dusk begins
I think of your eyes
In a midnight blue flurry
We embrace.
For once
I am one with you
And the sky.


Her hunt
She stalks
As if
She walked alone.
She is strong, as expected
She is wise, as we knew
Her instinct is clear.
The daughter of our rage has been brought to present
She is calm.
She protects us.


Cutting
As the waves roll over me
Words cut me
Like a cold breeze.
Through you.
I remain calm
Warm
Through you
I am alright.


It clouds
through the air,
it gathers and fills us
I do not worry
Our fire is a kind flame.
As it is.
The warmth of your blaze
It is my comfort
I see through the haze


Crashing
You overtake me
Waves wash over as the tides come in
And then you receed.
You have given me calm
After the storm.
i saw your fury, rage
I also felt your gentle caress
As you receed into my arms
I have held the storm,
And she is mine.


Spiralling chaos
My sky is full of you.
I see so many things
That I love
You have gifted me
With your eyes.
To see the world through you.
It calms me.


Through your fury
I see the calm that lives within
You breathe fire
As women do
I want to reassemble
This constilation
I don't know if I have enough control over the stars.
i just know that I would be a fool not to try.


Time ebbs
It flows.
A steady ticking
A metronome
In the waking night
In the pace of your rythym
Dawn begins.


Burning
Your fire burns within me
Radiant
Like a drug.
Pure euphoria
I look forward to feeling you again.


Distant
I cause no harm,
As the storm of me
Passes.
Calm,
The breeze has become gentle.
I will cause no anger
I will cause no tears.
Alone in my mind,
I find solitude
I will never hurt anyone again.


Chaotic
A duality of heart
I dread the morning
Because it means
A new day of regret
This is my story
Written by own hand
Twin souls
That will never meet.
Dragons in fury
Fury in fire
I will try not to burn.


It shakes me
The light and fury
I tremmer
Through your storm
I see the calm.
Raging within you.
Flashes of brilliance
Feelings that roll through me.
I am shaken,
Yet calm.
I breathe through you,
As you do through me
Together, we are one.


They flicker and churn,
Dance in illumination
Our eyes meet the flame,
and our souls meet the light
As the shadows cast
The divine glow
We are one in a spiral of light.
We float
The heavens welcome.


Radiance
It eminates from you
A kind warmth,
Like the sun on a cold day
I bask in your words; your eyes
I am no longer cold
I vibrate with anticipation
This
It is your gift.
I am warm.


We are bound
As the universe,
It holds us
Together
As I drift apart,
It is the gravity of spirit that pulls me together.
I will never walk alone.
Because I have you.


Kissed by a rose
I am showered by the flowers of your blessing
I kiss the rose
Sweet
Beautiful
You are a gift to me.
I hold you
Warmth, and kindness.
As I hold you,
You complete me.


Brilliant
As you streak through
Cold and furious,
I envy you.
As you lurch towards,
I am not scared. I have felt the emptiness that you have taught me.
Brilliant like fire, cold like stone.
You are everything.
I dream of your impact.
I want to be held in your embrace.


Dripping
Breath from angels
As it falls upon me
I see you
Through the cold.
The light shines through you
And you shine through me.
I glow in the moonlight
Through you.
Together
We are light.


Bitter
The chill and frost,
They roll through me.
I remember our embrace,
Warm and wanting
A fire in the night of winter.
I exhale,
And think to colder nights.
Today is not frigid.
As I shiver and tremble,
A warmth fills my sky.


It hits my back,
And pushes me forward.
These winds of change are chaotic,
But they remain my only friend.
I have died a thousand times
In these dreams of despair.
And yet I wake
Trodden with the weight of an entire world
But still I walk.
It is my destiny.


Filled with fire
Passion.
Fueled by awe.
A storm rages.
You are the thunder
You are the lightning.
And as the storm passes,
You hold me.
Gentle and kind.
I feel safe.


The air
It escapes me
Wind in the night,
Fleeing for safe harbor.
I am left breathless
And in wonder.
My gift of desperation
Is your gift of lesson.
As I breathe again,
I hear the tides roll in.
Everything is perfect again.


Through the lense
Everything is clear.
I dreamt of you
A moment of clarity
These dreams
They create a focus
I hold our embrace,
This fire will always burn.
In the calm, we are together.


I bask
In your color
Through the view that comes with you.
I am shaded in the shadow
Of your brilliance
Through the prism of your eyes
I see everything.
As the sun rises and sets,
As the tides wash in and receed
I see the world in a new light.


Our embrace is of fury
Breathless
This is our fate
As the hours wind down
I fade into black
As things do.
I know there is a vigilante guarde.
More feirce than my words will ever be.
Sharks in the water, as it were


I am calm
In this chaos
Born into a tempest
Stormborn
I let the wind bleed through me.
As it pushes me through a new future
I breathe and listen
When the wind calms.
I can rest.
I will take a deep breath.


We are wed.
Anger and fury.
Joined in a union
Born of rage,
But this is ours.
There is beauty
In the takedown.
As you exhale destruction,
I inhale your peace.
We are one.


We have become devestion
Our breathe is fire
Our nature is the end
As the universe,
It sings to me
I feel our rage blooming
I live through yours
As you live through mine.
Our rage is not yours,
Nor is it mine.
It has come us.


I have sat in the still of Winter
Warmed by the flame
Of a single candle.
Frigid and cold.
I remained warm
As I breathe though you,
I remember the silence


Forged
Tempered
Hardened by pain
Strengthed by rage
Your glow is bright.
Your radiance illuminates.
Your touch gentle.
Your eyes are an abyss
I find joy in falling.
Falling into the sky.
These clouds
I rest my head on them.


Shapes of sunlight
Gold in my eyes
Curves of of celestial
I dream of you
Your gravity binds
I am set among the stars.
I will float among your skies.
They have become mine,
As mine have become yours.
Together you will teach me how to soar.


Tragedy befalls
In the cold air of Autumn
The breeze rustles
The giant oak falls
It will give nurture
Care
Even in death
As the wind,
It chills me
As it blew down our tree
Something will grow


Struggle and strife
My world fades from me as I see
The strength of your beauty
I dream of azure skies,
As I gaze into you.
Force and fury,
I see gorgeous intent and focus
You take me into you
You are no longer you,
I am no longer mine.
We are ours.
For the first time,
I am complete.
From what remains.


Crimson
A fire burning
In my sky.
The flames of your warmth
Stoked and glowing.
Embers
Glowing in the night.
As I lay next to you
I ignite through your passion.


Heavy
They lean;
Giants of dust
and granite
Colliding,
In a fit of anger,
Fury
I succumb to your reach,
As you fall
Into mine.
Our spirits clash,
Dance
Our collapse
Born of our will.
A chasm to scar
A canyon.
Together we sleep.


The ember of your eyes
Bright,
And flickering
Old flames become new
I drift into
You
Dreaming
The thought of your smile;
The gift of your embrace
It is my waking grasp
As it all fades into your touch
The flames dance
In your eyes.
The shadows cast
They are forever,
Always
Ours.


The silence
It stirs beneath,
A wicked embrace
I find myself adrift
This spiral sends me into the earth
As I become one with it,
Your lesson becomes one with me.
Words echoing through pain,
The gift you give
Is not to be forgotten.


Azure
Cascading into me
Waves roll,
Clashing in to my thoughts
You never left, did you?
Silence breaks with thunder
As your eyes touch mine
Echoing silence.
The embrace that is your gift
Binds me
I walk in autumn
As leaves fall,
And summer dreams of you.


I walk in the shadow of us
Illuminated in the twilight
Of the glimmer
In your eye.
As our sun sets
It falls.
The darkness.
I do not fear the midnight ire.
I am here, steadfast, patient, chaste
I close my eyes,
And i wait for dawn.


The dark of night
Through the wake of morn
Stalwart angels
Stood watch.
In the grace of their care
I knew
"This is not my twilight!"
Through laughter
Smiles
They kept my spirits high
All things end,
But I will never forget any of you.


Thunder crashes down
My sky is lit with fire
These winds are my breath
They breathe into me
Fury and fire
It was always this.
This cloudburst
I am sundered
Like razors,
I exhale as it flows through


The aroma
Petrichor for my soul
I am calm with anger
I have found peace in my rage
You have given me an inner sanctum
It is there that I find refuge.


I step outside of my soul
A fine mist
It gifts the wind a purpose
I walk along
Taking in
The solemn nature
Of what I have been given.


If this is my forge
If you are my fire
Then I shall temper myself
An iron will
Charred, but
Stronger.


Shattered
But it glistens
In this pale moonlight
Crashing,
Our waltz
The crushing glass beneath.
It glistens into our eyes.


Sparks flew
Like the biggest
Baddest
Of the blue one
Fusion your head
Into a unified mind
Dream of splitting up
We will consume you
Sparks fly
Above where you can't see.
This is who we are.
This is we.


In your hold
I felt your hearth
Beauty of today
Neverending tommorow
In your arms
I found
The strength of our love


Blinding
Roots holding the sun
We all shine
From within
Divining smiles
Our glow
Is seen by all


Divine
Of touch
The joy of my inner self
Swells within.
I breathe,
And exhale.
I have found peace.


Cloudburst
This tempest is upon you
Petrichor
As heaven kisses the earth
We lay side by side
In love and lust
A state of love
A state of trust.


Flight
Souring into Heaven.
I am observant.
I seek the skies above.
I find my peace from the wind within.
Wings spread
I am uplifted.


Serene
The waters bestill me
I am calm within their flood
I dream of the ebb and flow
I wash upon them
They wash upon me
I am fluid of their nature
Their movement is of mine.


Hot and cold
These fronts meet
In absolute violence.
A storm is borne
A child of our nature
The grounds are softened
By our winds.


As things die,
We prepare the new Harvest
Furtile is the ground we walk upon
From green to brown,
Atum is upon us
Autumn walker
Let our September child sing.


A frozen edged blade
Chill with winter frost,
Hardened by the cold.
They hang with pure might
Shattering in the wind,
They are the gift of Winter.
They are our will
They are our winters edge.


As we drift
Into the air,
Our essence is shared
Carried by the winds of Heaven,
We are planted into the soil
We shine like childs of divinity.
Golden and floating,
We drift of Gods word.


A fire burns
Deep within
Of sinners and saints,
We are one.
United of soul and spirit
Touched of flesh,
And bound by love.


Birds
Paradise lost within
Rampant jungle
Falls spring forth
Trials of adventure
Soaring within our hearts
Together we fly.


The waters dance
It floats before my eyes
Drifting, flowing
The ice dances before my eyes
A winters chill
A waters hug
I am held


Of maiden hair
Azure eyes
Your flame entices
Your hearth warms
I am one with you
We have become united.


Crashing
They wash upon my will.
Seafoam green,
Our first journey
My planning led to your discovery
Now the world is upon you.
You hold it in your hands.


The calm
Before the storm
The meadows welcome
I breathe into them
As they breathe into me.
My exhalation
It feeds them
As they feed me.
Growth is seen.


A beacon
Upon this world
I shine bright,
As a lantern providing light
A bright light in a dark world
I am the morningstar.


The force of our fury
The force of our wind
It tears asunder
The darkest of lands
When Hot
Cold
Met in violent fury
This is where the forces
Of Nature meet.


Firefly
The facet of your eye
Sapphire burning
Feverish intent
Deep within thought
Fathoms of meaning
I will forever be
The morning star.


The smell of pine
Needles lace the floor
Glowing lights
They fade as I sleep
Gifts of Kindness
Gilded in silver
Red ribbons
Tied with greatest of care
It completes our home


Turned of stone
Hardened with peace
I feel the waters flow
I am bathed within them
Snow capped delight
I am washed without
I am washed within
I am purified
As I shiver
As I shake
They are one within.


Autum walker
As the leaves change
They fall within
I am complete as the winter comes
I am understood as my own color changes
I am divine
I am without worry.


Orchards
They grow, and feed
As apples feed
I am fed within.
This is our feast
This is our harvest.


Companions
New friendship
Our enemies become allies
Our warriors become beasts.
We are fury
We are one.


Upon the sun,
The oceans await
I am crashed by the waves
Under sunshine
Illuminated by divinity
Overwhelmed by smashing might.
I am a child of solar.


As hallows eve
It falls upon us
An autumn of the the most amazing nature
Leaves change
The weather chills.
The wind blows into us.
I am calmed.


My sorrow fades
As I see your eyes
Blue as the sky,
Deep as the ocean.
We are one,
As we find balance within each other
I am you, and you are me.


An orange harvest
The smell of leaves
Misting in the wind
I walk with you,
Hand in hand.
We will forever
Be together.


Slowly drifting
I will meet you
Henceforward
As you dance on boats
A Catamaran of
Your choice
This is our destination.


Glowing and warm
It fills the room
Sparkeling and bright
It makes our house a home
Together,
Forever.


Drawn upon October
My heart beats
With yours
In patience and understanding
I live within you
I love with you
I am yours
Forever neverending
I am yours


The tremor of delight
Holding your warmth
I am given the greatest of gifts
Cuddles and charm
Beauty of your own making
I am in love.


Of glow and pine
The needles fall
The sweetest of smells
Our home will be warm
Your hearth will warm me.


A prism of light
Split between
As we gaze upon
The misting rain.
We feel the spectrum
Of our lives.


Autumn
The changing leaves
The changing weather
The chill,
The breeze
It lives within me
It flows through
I am one with it
As it is one with me.


The glowing nature
A needles charm
It slowly glows
Within our living
A heavy weight
Purely of pine,
Purely of our nature
Our love grows.


Grace
Childing like love
Passsion of extreme love
I have fallen
Deeply in love
The waves of your care
Wash upon me.
We are one.


As builders are,
Our family is created
Love is abound,
As our love is.
We create children,
And we watch them grow.


To a somber awakening
To a somber goodnight
I will wake
I will sleep alongside
You are the woman
That lives within my dreams.


Haunted by our past
Spirited by our desire
I long for you
A deep caress
Deep within
I am yours.


A roast
Properly seared
Well seasoned
It fills me
I am forever warmed
By your love.


With chainging leaves
It falls upon
Pumpkins and autumn walkers
We are one within
When I enter,
There is nothing but joy.


The most silent of nights
The joy of us
Laying aside
I will dream
Of nothing but you.


I dream
You and I,
Together alongside
As waves crash upon
We float
Together, forever.


Green leaves falling
As they turn to gray
This is life,
Spinning into fall.
This is the path of our nature
This is our path to fall.


Tomorrow is a new day
A new begingig for both of us
As autumn walks
We begin again.


A sacred goodbye
Full of heart
Empty of joy
My love for you
Is neverending
Our love is full
As you made
This house a home.


Succinct in understanding
Bearer of forgivness
The lights have been drawn
The leaves change
As our autumn changes
Leaves will fall
As I will walk


The colors,
As they change
Trees depart their leaves
Another season has begun
The wind howls
The air chills
This is the time of my birth


Tied
With love
The gift sits
Beneath the tree
Glowing, and warm,
Our children await
For that special morning
The excitment awaits.


Of stress and fights
We will awaken these lights
The glow
It will illuminate our home
This is ours
This is us, forever.


Of beards
Of breasts
We match, balanced and seen
I am of you,
You are of me.
We our united
In our love


A sunday brunch
Restfull
As things are,
As I lay against
You are all that I will ever need.


Of mothers milk
Frosted by winds
Winter chills,
And our sweetness
We indulge.


A rose
Britted with thorns
Harndened by
The harshed winter
Beautiful in my eyes
As I get lost in yours


Cloudburst
As it hangs above
I am turbulent,
As our travels go.
Rocking and floating.
I am the mist in the air.


As I shiver
As I shake
The poison leaves me
Gone within,
I am left pure.


Falling autumn
Show me your breeze
Chill me,
Showing me your path
As colors change,
I begin to begin again.


As I grow,
Ripe and orange
I illuminate the fall
I sparkle in childrens eyes
I give purpose for a pair
I am the autumn harvest.


I watch the news
Cycle after endless cycle
The awful nature of man is revealed
I wish these things would end,
But they never do
Guns ending men,
Men ending in guns.
This is our pain.


Floating
Aloft, as the breeze carries
I drift aside you
As you are my wind
And I am the thunder
The storm rises us all


A standing silhouette
She stands dark against the moon
Providing
Loving
She overcomes,
She is one with me.


It flows through
Chilling,
But a sign of changing season
I am wrapped and warm
As the breeze shivers.


An orchid
Red with delight
I provide the sugars
The heavens desire
Grown in summer,
I am your golden child.


Of no measure
Until the moutain meets the man
Until the man meets the mountain,
Moonlight fading,
Hearts racing
I am one within.


Warmed by your embrace
Comforted by my hold of you
Guided by your love,
I look towards the falling leaves
I fall into your eyes
I want to be one with you.


As heaven touches earth,
As our lips meet
I smell the soil,
I taste your joy
I hope to be one with you,
As our garden in watered.


Passing in the night
Fathomless strangers
We drift
Passengers,
As the dawn breaks upon us
Upon sunbreak,
We arrive.


A brilliance
I see within your eyes
Golden and blue
I see it within you
Your strengh
It instills me
With the warmth of you


Torn asunder
Thunder within
I am drawn to you,
As hot and cold.
We are incomplete without.


Glistering in your eyes
I see the moonlight,
I see your gaze
It enveloped me
As I fall within
I am yours,
As you are mine.


Colors change
As life falls before us
Trees shed,
As they grow old.
Golden, beautiful,
Autumn trembles before us.


In the moonlight
I stumbled,
Shattered
I foretake
The journey of my life
Rocks and riddles
I am complete


Hardened by pain
Brittled by aweful men
You persevere
Such a strong woman
I barely deserve
I am lucky to hold you.


Determined
Harded by stone
You are the diamond in the rough
Sparkeling
Blue eyed
I get lost in your gaze
You are my wonder.


As petals fall
I bloom with you
Our growth,
It is us.


Of mothers milk
I am made whole
A child inside
A beautiful choice
She made me one
With her.


As I burn
The room is warmed
I illuninate
Providing a special
Glow that fills us.


Filled with her warmth
I am given the gift of her love
Forever filled,
I am lifted with content.


Of wine and water,
I choose your honey
It is of the sweetest nature
The most divine of scents
The sweetest touch
When I am one with you
I am complete


A dark silhouette
She stands against the moon
The light upon her shines,
As she walks under the protection
She is one with the stars
She is one with you.


Rome was not built in a day
It took ages, but buildings were built
Construction, as it were
Cranes were manifested
I was created
All is calm in Italy
As was our intention.


Borne of storms
Dedicated to tommorows desire
I long your your embrace
We were both harded
By the cold
And thus we are stronger.


I have faith in tomorrow,
As I have hope in today
A lovers want
Is a lovers will
My determination will bring her to me.


A warm embrace
In your arms
In the grasp of a warrior princess
I am gifted the love of dawn
I am loved


As drifts fall
I am burried in your love
Flakes fall,
As unique as our love
An avalance of emotion
It falls upon us


Ribbons
They fall upon our tree
Glowing and warm
This is how our house
Is meant to be


A childs grace
Is our smile
Glistening
It is our desire
As we our one
We are are two


Crisis
As leaves falls around us
But as we are united
We are bound as one
United, a divine pair


Glowing
Illuminted
It warms our home
With divine glow
Falling needles
With the scent of pine
It makes our house a home


A mountain climb
Of childlike wonder
Where my grandfather played
I summited
With divine view
I was one with the heavens


A glowing embrace
Warmth of a summer day
Catarans, an ocean day
I walk with you
Through a park of your choice
I hold your hands,
And we are one


A door ajar
As the shutters bash and clank
The wind howls, as her voice fades
Whispers of longing,
A sirens song
Of earth and quake
Fire and ice.
I am her terra,
She is my luna
The tides roll in
Everything is washed away


Was it a twinkle?
The dazzle in your eyes
Blue skies fade
Into blinding light
I feel your warmth,
As your river runs through me
I am taken
By your everlasting gaze.


Rotten apple
So far you have fallen
Might it be the wisdom of autumn
That rots you away?
Let me begin to give life
To the soil beneath,
So that another tree
Might someday grow.


As the dawn breaks
I slow until the harvest
Smiling child,
You do not yearn as I do
For the sense of autumn hay
It is your smile that warms me
Into the fading sun


Crosses
As we dared to step
As was our folly
A dreamt redeemeed
The library
The words spill out before us
In our drunken haze
Your hazel eyes lay before me.


In the pale
The iris of her gleem
Shining in the stark
Moonbeans bequeath her
Brilliant and red,
The lure of her lips
It draws me in
Helpless,
I fall into her gaze
With her,
I am complete.


It stands before
Strong and stout
From once a small seed
But now stands against
My axe is no measure
My arms are without
Shade that you provide,
Wood that would burn
Your circles remind me
That I still need to grow.


As the dawn breaks
I see the highlight of your eyes
Exhale
Breathe
Tommorow
It is the new day
Everlasting
As is our love
Our embrace
This is my heaven
