Apathy

Unnerving.
More than
the clock’s ticking,
on this silent night.
Its words…
…those cold words…
…your words
Like a recorded song,
being played
over and over.
Robbed my hope,
of ever hearing
your heart beat.

Lay Me Down

Lay me on a distant land,
where groves bear fruits of the sun,
and the heavens whisper words,
sweet as the morning’s dew.

Lay me while the waters scurry.
Let it tickle my weary hand
as I play with it,
like strings of a guitar.

Lay me as If I was a feather,
falling from an angel’s wing.
Slowly taking down,
Then resting on earth’s arms.

Let me lay on the paradise,
My illusions created.
For reality seems so foreign.

So please console me,
and lay me down.

Waterfront

I bask beneath the hidden night,
while fingers caress the land.
A marvelous symphony,
on strings of coconut palms.

Lights blend with the music,
and heaven’s brush creates
a myriad of images,
laid on the sea’s onyx canvas.

Shores gave their applause,
as the climax commences.
Awestruck, I remain,
soaking in all the spectacles.

This show is far from over.
The next act has only begun.

Beyond the Light

Don’t take me…

I hide
behind blinds,
that shut out
what’s coming.

It stings!

The light comes for me.
Helpless,
I’m taken closer…
and closer…
and closer.

Let go!
I did not want this!

I resent your paradise!
I loathe your gift of eternity!
Throw me back!

Don’t take me… Please…

The Mesmer

What hands can’t touch,
Eyes can grasp.

Echoes from pools of amber hues,
Like voices beyond the tunnel,
Beckoning, seducing…

I’m your fool.

Soul begs to be your reflection…
…You allow it.
Heart surrenders for your bidding…
…You take it.
Mind halts…
…I,
…You,
…One!

Lips on leather soles,
Tastes like juice
from the apples of Eden.
Give me more!

I’m your fool,
A fool’s fool.

I’m… a… fool…
