Take my hand and dance with me until the sun does fade away. I’ve no desires for your wealth, Only for laughter to show us our way. With tip-toes spinning ‘round your legs, And dresses flying up my own, Dance with me as wind and leaves, We’ll make this evening feel like home. Dance with … Continue reading Dance with Me

The Falls
It empties itself into the earth roaring it's presence into the minds of those who stand witness, and sliding from one rock to the next, shattering into glass with each impact, in an unstoppable act of nature deemed necessary by the universe To carve out the path it shall take to reach whatever destination has … Continue reading The Falls
Something In-between
Lost within a memory I won’t let myself forget, Like the face of a newborn child Or that of my first regret. It finds me all alone, Gone to the gallows of night; And I ponder, stare, commiserate How something could be so right… Staring back into my soul With jewels of bourbon silk, Fingers … Continue reading Something In-between
A Rose in Death
A rose smells its sweetest while death takes it’s toll as leaves dry and rot, it grows more powerful. I wonder, will we shine Once our time has come to pass? Reminiscing on our death, With questions we won’t ask- Will the world smile on us, so the wind can carry our scent? Will we … Continue reading A Rose in Death
Something Holding On
Did you find it on your own, When you were lost so long ago? Hiding, where was it hiding, Somewhere in your soul? I found it yesterday, In a dumpster by my home That little feeling, maybe, sort of that I am not alone. It was there, smiling, free Something in it calling to me … Continue reading Something Holding On

Reminisce
---Written for my love, who will likely never see this, in an attempt to reminisce the start of our commitment --- A drunken night, A silent joke, An early morning, A walk in the road, A night of cards, Another of chess, (Hard to believe That was your best) A day in doors TV blared … Continue reading Reminisce
Breath
Did you catch your breath? Mine is somewhere far away Trapped in a world Where we never met.
On Writer’s Block
I feel it, at the tips of my mind Like stars that shine for billions of years Before bursting to dust and leaving the darkness behind for us to wander through Without any idea where we’re going, Only knowing that we need to be somewhere and we need to be there soon. A story that … Continue reading On Writer’s Block
A Good Day Fades
A good day fades, disappears until we’re left with nothing But the ragged edges of a memory to tell us we were happy. Are those memories alive In you? Or did they fade, too, Like the June gloom that settled into those brilliant mornings where we cuddled in bed, when you were the one I … Continue reading A Good Day Fades
