Symphony of you




Tugging, pulling 
the music is cued..
Heart strings dangling  
waiting on you..
wound up tight 
Fill me with dread 
Or sheer delight..
It’s a choice 
your choice
which do you choose...
elaborate 
full spectrum 
You bring on the charm
Symphony in my head
sound the alarm..
it’s music 
our music 
we don’t skip a beat
Let’s waste moments together 
while we bruise in the heat..
blood vessels may rupture but what do we care 
a little discoloring 
we will not scare..
We’re classic 
complex 
symphonic at best..
our love is relentless 
when put to the test..

Scorched





searing 
Burning 
lighting my core 
you cut
twisting, turning 
leaving no spot..
the screaming in my soul it can’t be whole..
I want to soar 
touch the sky
feel the sun 
till I’m high..
in my eyes you’d see the
sunshine till it made you cry
if your wanderlust settled 
you’d stay awhile..
A tale we could tell 
you’d know me well..

This is love..



Bruised knees to bruised hearts 
every moment - a new start..
you give
you take 
we grow through heartache..
searching 
wandering 
leading me through 
Beautiful ghosts I always knew 
you give and I live..
Memories within 
never grow old..
invaluable, priceless
we slowly unfold..
I’ll dance with the shadows of all that we know 
you color my heart vibrant 
our story untold..

the rain came..



You chose to stay 
chasing the sun until my heart you won..
Clearing the melancholy 
sharing the joy..
The unknown looming 
My eyes watching 
pondering the beauty you bring to my heart..
In the losses 
The dark spaces 
you continued to give..
The rain came 
each drop washing away the old..
You didn’t run
Turning us around 
we’ve begun...

Beauty mark..




you’ve taught me well
you’ve  loved me long 
showing me I do belong.. 
accept what is
the fight is done 
no escaping from the one..
it’s all within 
the storm inside
letting go I will not hide..
showing me scars I never knew 
you trace them all through and through..
cherishing the bruises 
Loving me deeply 
your beauty mark stamps them 
it completes me..

So can love..





You cover my soul in the whisper of your words..
inspire and delight me 
filling me whole..
Tender, captivating 
connected throughout,
Waxing eloquently about my heart 
If pain can echo
So can love
a bit of madness from above.. 
No mystery in the quiet  
no fear in the unknown..
a challenge to my mind
a miracle to my heart..
i am but clay 
pliable and willing from the start..
beautiful creation 
as your words shape me 
your love turns me
molding my way..

Drift away..



words now elude me
It’s just not the same..
I scream out your name 
to the silence reverberating the emptiness of pain..
my mind lost in time 
searching for the place that was once mine..
i took your hands 
we joined life 
together we faced all its’ strife..
I feel you here
yet you’re no where near.. 
I quietly watch as you subside 
You are the one my heart can’t hide..
rare 
Beautiful 
Uniquely you 
A recipe of our own 
we honed to share..
You heighten my senses 
awaken my core 
my soul is fighting strong to belong once more..
with each breath you breathe 
I grieve..
for I know what I know 
as you slowly drift away.. 
The kindest love is letting you go..
will I stand 
Will I sink 
as I slip to the brink 
when your fingers loosen mine for the very last time..
