Invite beauty into your life
embrace the beauty of spirit and free
you will be amazed at what you see
walking though life in a haze
there are some things I remember so clearly
like the senseless pain, and maybe the death...

This hurts the soul, too many times
maybe its never over you see
maybe we always carry our wars around inside of us
ticking away, waiting to go off
or maybe we will invite beauty
into our very souls.....

The inner core must come alive
with miracles that can abide
with generously blessed energy
with visions and dreams come alive..

Let me invite the beauty
help me to keep from crying...

Debbie Brooks 2014

My thoughts found in tears
let me lay with you this last time
let me put my face on your chest
and let me hear your heart beat
no matter what my mood
no matter what the day...

Let me lay, let me shed my tears
in your heart, in this losing battle
its hard not to call, to hear your mighty voice
its hard to turn away
my tears give way to fears
the joy seems to dissolve away....

My arms ache, just wanting to feel you
my lips are chapped needing your kisses
my body aches wanting and needing so much...

I find myself looking to the stars
out the simple window of pain
I curl up on my pillows and cry the night away...

So Please let me lay, just one more time
let me look at your wonderful face
let me search your wonderful heart
just don't walk away....

Restless sleep last night

I tossed left and right

Across the everglades and leas 

I saw you running towards me. 



Out of breath, you came & clasped my hand

My heart pounding, I could barely understand, 

The distress, pain, aches reflected in your eye

Not a word spoken, yet all said by your sigh. 
  

I saw a teardrop rolling down your cheek

Adios my darling, hitherto we shall never meet

‘The dawn arrives’, is what you said silently

Why can’t you linger awhile? I beseeched fervently.



Confused paralyzed, I let you go 

And you were lost, gone – ergo

As I sat on the broken bench to catch my breath

I wondered was I, in holding on out of depth? 



Alas…I pray

Would you come back into my dream again tonight? 

Not to leave, but to stay on even after daylight? 

Not to cause agony & pain

But to stay, forever remain.

____________

My love, I saw you in your dream
I traveled oh so far, waiting for an invitation
To be part of you once again
Your mind entwined with mine
Drove my heart to yours
And dreamed me so many times


Your dreams become my restless sleep
Tossing and turning with touches of your lips
That keeps me flooding with touches and love
That’s when I was running to you
You saw my teardrop, with touch of desperation


My heart pounding not understanding
The need I had for you,
Whispering we should ever meet,
Please do not let me go,
Your dreams are my dreams
Even in the daylight

I can taste your love like rain on my tongue
You teased my dream with droplets of you
With so many wild pleasures that lay in store
As our happiness dazzled before our eyes
Our dreams made one, that last time …

Mirthful sunlit chimes spoke of fondness
Ever they'd enmesh in love's binding tress  
Streams of joy did gurgle with much delight  
Their hearts according in rapture's notes
Bright news resounded through these totes
They'd professed to each other love's tie
Twas a pairing which would ne'er fade or die
Heavens arrayed in spangling starlight
The twosome combined so divinely
A sweet syrup bliss ringing sublimely
Love's declaration pleasantly pealing
Throughout the continents both near and wide
The turtle doves love ever to reside
These gladdest tidings truly appealing

Cyber Love
So Tall, Dark and Loving were thee
Pressing for time
Feeling the rush
Kissing your lips
Through outer space
Inescapable trappings
Of yesterdays blurred nights
Slow drawn out speeches
Offerings to my growing eyes
These sentiments
Too deeply rooted in old soil
To discard like worn-out shoes
Into the mountain light
To see its rose suffuse
A ****** blush upon the evening
Air and cool
Into a swaddling blue
As night falls
Deep within the valley
Are the Angels of a departing day!
Flash like fireflies
Across the blurry screen
Communion on the terrace
Is subdued
Wine and moonlight
Tourmaline leaves rustle
Beneath the ledge
In breezy shadow
While high atop a tower
Bright beams upon inside an upper room
Of shelves and books and words
To live by
Computer rush inside the brain
Embracing the touch
Of forever love
That opens cuts blue midnight
Sapphire grey sky
Now rush into the rush to sigh
Who are you? Who am I?
Echoes within the heart
Into the mountain light
To see its rose suffuse
A ****** blush upon the evening
Are the Angels of a departing day!

Tourmaline leaves rustle
Beneath the ledge
In breezy shadow
While high atop a tower
Bright beams upon inside an upper room
Of shelves and books and words
To live by
Computer rush inside the brain
Embracing the touch
Of forever love
That opens cuts blue midnight
Sapphire grey sky
Now rush into the rush to sigh
Who are you? Who am I?
Echoes within the heart
Passion will prevail
Will be endure
To the lovely end...............

Roses were falling freely
the earth was given up
the midsummers night dream
The majesty of the night
formed the barefoot madness
so many colors of hearts to come....

Shaken by the violence of the moments of roses
forming , words,'this is the day'
feeling stunned, bewildered
so much to learn
as the roses were falling freely
that day was like no other
but, there is nothing more to tell....


Debbie Brooks 2014

Remember that day we were talking
you were so wonderful, you wanted me
and I you,....it was a beautiful day... just you and I...

You guided me on the boat, it was exciting
my heart was beating, you bent down and kissed my lips
and you fondled my back....you said.. this is our's like you are mine
forever mine..

we would go sailing, you would hold me at the front while the wind blew so fiercely in our faces, we couldn't talk .... just kissed...

but, darling.....I am still waiting for the sail boat, for the race of our lives
for your many kisses, for our lives....

Sweetheart, you promised me a sailboat....

Debbie Brooks 2014

he wants me bad.. I know he does,... he keeps sending me looks..

AS I sit here the looks you throw
tears me apart,
the atoms of my body breaks into
my destination, is a world unknown
my wants, wants to run,
my soul, screams into eternity
there is too much too do..
maybe I don't want to do this
maybe my heart is screaming no...

Maybe, just maybe France looks good this time of year
maybe I will leave.
I believe in second chances, but baby not with you....


Debbie Brooks 2014

You caught my eye that first day
the hand and the looks drove me wild
I tried not to look when you would smile
until the drink, the love affair...

Your hand would brush my hair away
touch my lips with a soft touch
telling me I was beautiful, lets love just this once
not being able to tell you no...

As I drank my martini, your hand touch my leg
my eyes got wide, and my heart skipped a beat
and there you were so close to my lips,
with your hands pulling me up
lets go get a room, you would say....

My new black dress felt so good,
my bond hair hung to my waist
my blue eyes shone with delight
but the room, and your look of hidden desires
and the lost of self....No, I just can't..

I want more...

Debbie Brooks 2014

It's been awhile
you and me sitting on our patio
listening to our 70's songs
'why do you love me most'
holding our hearts in our hands
you making me dinner
touching my heart..

The day you left, hurt me so
but darling there you sit wanting
oh yes wanting to come back
I have to admit, the damage was done
the pain was formed
the tears destroyed so much
but there you sit..wanting me once again...

Should I have a hard heart
a cold soul, a nonchalant attitude
should I nod my head, that yes I want you in my bed?

Should I cry my fears, tell you no
or melt in your arms once again
like I did before ???

Darling, you do look so handsome
you are promising the stars
my lips want yours, tell me something
what should I do, do I let you  in
do I let you hold my heart again?
