You are the wilted flower in the sea of the dead…
The last beautiful sign of a world forgot –
Your beauty stretches beyond the words,
Tipping over the cliffs of tongues,
Crashing into the abyss and swallowed –
Eaten whole,
Forgotten…
You are the last droplet of sun,
Kissing the horizon as you asunder from the day –
Leaving your taste in the sky,
Painted with the colors of your soul…

SHE
Into my ear she whispers
Such thoughts I can't define
Days I've lost forever
Moments get trapped in time
Her love has so many meanings
My life has so many stains
My heart is in need of cleaning
As she causes it to rain
Her breath of life I'm breathing
She supplies the light I lack
If I lose my way tomorrow
Her light shall guide me back
She is the queen of mystery
Her energy is where I dwell
Her ways are far beyond knowing
To a heart that's hardened by hell
Yet in my soul she lingers
My doubts she understands
My heart she made of star dust
And formed within her hands
This lesson that I'm learning
Things are rarely as they seem
She opened up my eyes to hope
And renews forgotten dreams
Written to my lady, 2006 (her favorite)
Can she see through creative eyes
Violet truths, purple lies

Can she feel me when I'm numb
Drink with me the pirate's ***

Can her touch bring me pleasure
Is her bounty hidden treasure

Where I'm going, when I come
Will she know if I'm done

When I bleed will she see red
Will my hungry heart be fed

Shall all be lost in lovers cove
Or shall love shine like stolen gold

Sometimes
           In the early morn
      I can feel your presence,
    From the other side of the
     door, more like a world
       away. A rush of pure
          ecstasy overcomes
                  me, from
                who, I know.
                  When I feel you,
                     Warming my body,
                        Your breath on my neck,
                           Then a touch behind my ear
                              A caress across my shoulders,
                                 Slowly rolls off down my back.
I turn to stand face to face with you and I succumb to absolute awe, a beaming radiance and a

hearth of heat unlike any fire before.
Impeccable beauty,
Incredulous silence,
Infinite beauty,
     in any shade.
This is how I know.
I am at long last in love.
