Never can I be he or she or me
keeping up with all those somedays
projected like film into these fantasies
only a hologram and you cant touch-
the faded skipping record that warps these dreams.
Not here or now or then but never
open souls that light the way
Naked feet tread conflicting paths in wounded gardens
each story set in motion, pages torn in threes
a fable stitched like stars into a seam of sky
eyes that penetrate but only ghosts of these
burning mouth and bruising palms
Not lost or found or gone but here
colorful illusions cradled against the dark
trailing along after all those somedays

Illuminate Me
The sun shines more and more
illuminating
unveiling things that werent there before
Or can I truely see out through the glare?
flowers bloom despite the ice
frost thaws
and windows open wide
Doors still tightly latched against the outside
and I wonder
What will come with Spring?

Doesn't Matter
Saturday, January 10, 2009
Doesnt Matter
It doesnt matter what you call it
we'll both fall in the end
I know, you'll see
comfort shared and soft kisses in the night
tracing moonbeams on your skin
I cant help but touch you
this risk I took, not ill fated as I feared
the gentle breeze of one mind meeting another
lifts my spirits and makes me soar.
it doesnt matter what you call it
this peace I feel is not often claimed
your eyes meet mine, I cant control my smile
blushing, feeling new like a child
I'll relax into your arms, run my fingers through your hair
It doesnt matter what you call it

You Will Always be My Muse
Saturday, January 10, 2009
You will always be my Muse
It seems as though its done now
faded slow but almost out
but still you are my inspiration
my guiding light to whats in me
I saw in you the sweetest shadows of my soul
but a soul can only leave a body for just so long
cherished words and a song, for you
dreams that never were
and it takes even more to see
You cross my mind a thousand times
just like this earth you tread so desperately.
I know you'll find it in the end
and my words will keep on coming
your face will guide my hand.
The gift you gave so much more
because you see, what you gave was me
You will always be my Muse
It seems as though its done now
faded slow but almost out
but still you are my inspiration
my guiding light to whats in me
I saw in you the sweetest shadows of my soul

Forgotten
Saturday, January 03, 2009
Forgotten
These heartstrings you caressed like a fine instrument
would sing just to feel you
but now no sight, no sound
just the quiet stillness of what never was.
ties cut, and yet again
no answering voice in the dark
lost again and maybe never found
your restless wandering of this cruel world
is there a source to what you seek?
Will you find me someday, and be saddened by what you see?
hope unrequited, but its all thats there
I loved you
but now your lost
and my hopes and fears and love
are forgotten....
will you ever remember?

home
breathe in these darkened streets as the wind howls
feel it shiver across your cheek.
these horizons feel so bleak, but still theres warmth and a bitter end.
theres Laughter hidden in the silent grass
with skinned knees and those careless dreams.
lost paths worn with years of pacing, a queit shell against the world
easily forgotten. So simply left behind.
But roots that set tell the truest tales
and with time, we all know where we began.

Frozen in Time
these closing clouds just arent quite right-
they block your sky and poison me
If I could save this world you know I would
all smiles, without a care, walking on ice into your dreams
halting words on a tattered page
I'll keep it sacred, every moment and every ounce
count on my steady perseverance, unfailing, never changing
holding close these dreams that ought to be
our restless mouths, such hope and wild with despair
lay back and watch it happen
so close and just out of my reach
If I could look around- I'd find that I see you

letting loose, shedding tired skin
laughing, head tossed back
such amusement and all unleashed
hair in tangles, and life more so
I guess its time I started

retrospective
I dont know what to tell you
I turn my back but after every corner I feel you there
I fall back into your gaze again and again but
I tell myself I'm in control, I'm on top, I own it
but then you call and I miss you
always there, but just out of reach of who I am
such history you keep
in the cluttered drawers of your heart
dusty photos, a wilted flower chain
the broken promises were too much to bear and
I wonder if its ever really different
I'm done with tears now, they've graced my cheeks a thousand times
And I'm stronger now, and weaker too
and I wonder which of these I've taken from you

All the Time in the World

all the time in the world
all the time I thought I had, but now they tell me your times not so long. I never called I never wrote, never did my best by you. And now your time is shorter and I still cant seem why is it I pretend its ok? Nightmares of losing you before my eyes, a gunshot wound, but thats too quick. Not fair that you should go through this, so long, drawn out extended-but so so soon I think of all the times wanting to be just like you, hoping you'd come and watch me sing, dance, never a sore thing to say, but did I do the same? I feel that I've failed and its too little too late to tell you now that I loved you. I always did and always will, ungrateful me simply couldnt see- the selfless soul you are, a model for all to be. I hear the walks are great in heaven, they even give you wings for when the miles just go on and on and I had all the time in the world to tell you and I'm afraid I never will. Its hurtful, gutless and I hate myself but what do I say?

Fading Slow

Fading Slow
So I wonder if you're out there,
and I just cant seem to let go.
Nightmare visions haunt my soul,
each new day that passes another scar.
Such sad songs are all I have now,
songs I never got to sing for you.
Spirits walk in the corners of my eyes,
listen close, they'll tell us all it means.
The sun is fading, ending time,
drawing in the bones and wrenching cold.
Listless wandering, watching the phone.
Desperate hands crawl across these muddled worlds..
if hope is lost it was never worth hoping,
but I just cant close that door.
Stubborn maybe and foolish too,
but so few can see the way I do
And so I wonder if you're out there,
thinking the way I do

Relief

Relief
And your smiling through the juniper
sap lined grimace all along.
Splinters peirce the eyeballs, hold open defiant lids.
dont want to see, no- simply wont.
Limbs are limp and tossed away
Its in these arms that I held such a wonder
and lost it to debris.
skulls that rest in filth smile too, but theres more pain behind each grin than you could ever know-
and it doesnt seem like there could be
no, I think there never ever could be
relief.
and its cold, but I keep on truckin'
the bruises blister and theres a finite line between
redemption, exaltion, suffocation....
and the blood stained tears whisper gently on dry snakeskin
praying for
relief

As You Fly Away
Sunday, October 26, 2008
as you fly away
Rest your weary head, love
let me wash away your pain
These wings you gave me I didnt need
without them I still could have shown you how to fly
The sadness is in the possibilities so let me hold you close
shut your eyes to the darkness
outside its chill, but warmer here
cold breath that fades, dissolving into the moment when-
oh but if only you knew-
a heart that beats and thoughts of you inside
a love letter without words and unopened still
we grasp at straws but the answer isnt right
when nowhere is better than nothing
no other choice remains
but to fly
as you fly away
Rest your weary head, love
let me wash away your pain
These wings you gave me I didnt need
without them I still could have shown you how to fly
The sadness is in the possibilities so let me hold you close
shut your eyes to the darkness
outside its chill, but warmer here
cold breath that fades, dissolving into the moment when-
oh but if only you knew-

Mother Revisited
To think its all we have
makes me drop to my knees
Solitary moments of grace
the colors change, but why cant we?
Shattered remnants of joys once shared
I still remember dancing fireside
voices lifted, now falling,
like the leaves.
I've shed my skin
insides bare,
and where are you?
I've come to witness the sun,
but find you blind and alone.
And how I wish you could see
what I wouldnt do to help you see...

And I picked that scab again
I'll bend this body to fit you
Dusty sunlight across such pale flesh
But you know there's only so much to tell...
This restless wonderment that consumes
Breath on my neck, visions in the dark
with hands and foreheads pressed
I cant help but wonder if you see it
kaleidoscopic feeling
in the quiet of your arms

These gifts from you, so much anger, so much sad

unable to grasp
you cant see me through your clouded eyes
but my visions of you are pure

seeking
I guess I waited here too long
Now all your lustrous colors gone
faded like the sky, fallen into yesterday
I guess I looked too long into the sun...
Its setting now, cold, and dark,
pressing close but so alone
Wonder how I lost that thing I never found...

oblivion
Haunting hues of powder green
trickle down and kiss my forehead,
we walk through the honey glow of of what could be.
how is it
that you twirl the moonbeams through your fingers?
Show me, and I'll teach you how dance away the sun.
how is it
that you while away your time with wooden beads,
and sit among the spoiling roses?
Roses thorns might make for close embrace,
but starlight warmth is where I call home...
dont let my hungry smoke and flames
blind you
from where you're meant to be

You left me there
in the grass.
unseen, with clumps of dirt
ants that crawl, and angry beetles
left to age and fade, sunbeaten and bleached
unfit, tossed aside
left alone.........
found?
lovingly cleansed, reborn anew
rainwashed sadness of the solitary pries open the eyes of the recent blind
unavoidable now, forced to face
soullful duplicity, heart like mirrors, open, gaping

Refugio
We used to sit
and tell our secrets to the wind
growing lives
heartfelt changes
we used to sit.
Shoulders to cry on, arms always open
tar on feet and sand in our hair.
Different places, but hearts the same
Needing, craving, hoping for simplicity
but caught up in our runaway lives.
So distant now, barely speaking
Love not lost, but somehow set aside.
Sorry phone calls, no time to catch up
growing daughters, open futures
Time not lost, but ill spent all the same

Economy Sized
Heat oppresive, closing in
vapid computer wasteland, rotting brain and soul
Not here to stay, just checking out
endless faces, plastic smile
song and dance, eternal puppeteer.
take you for all your worth and make you love it
sweaty uniforms and uncirculated air
suffocating
grinning madly
One moment sir, my throat is closing
Now then.........How may I help you?

San Marcos Pass
Grass between my toes
wishing I was running free
Sun, like an oven baking my skin.
water drops on eyelashes make for me a rainbow world
laughter floats like butterflies, carried on the wind
Scents of sage, of sea, of dusty rock
Standing high atop the Earth
this place my own, but long since seen
Lemonade bush, sticky monkey, live oaks and open sky
red hands and feet, to match the sunset, and where we've been.
Fears conquered, and innocence spent
Crushed velvet and dirty denim
I remember you when I dream

lack of words, eyes profound
Wondering what the storm clouds hold
Loss of breath, look around
frantic thoughts in liquid calm

Tiptoe when you walk here...
Seasons changing, heart is failing
Misted eyes and tomorrow's almost gone.
Never waited so long before.
The fruit is rotting, leave it there
sit down in your broken chair.
Sit and listen to empty words, that twist and flow in an orchestra
of listless sounds.
If you reach out, we could almost touch-
Please ignore the curtain stains,
their running colors aren't the truth.
The garden stairs are weak and misleading
flowers wilt in dayglow splendor, reeking in the earth.
Sunlight blinds my eyes as I look to see
the stars that fall upon your face.
Soft scars that welcome me.

Normal
Everyday standard, works for me
follow this path continuously
not a turn to the right nor a jaunt to the left
No shadows, no light, only one shade
I test my confinement
nudging it, like a corpse, with a stick of inspiration
Does it budge? Did it blink?
hard to say. better move on.
but on the path or off it? Mystery lies to every side
options, ideas, crowding so close I almost scream
bright crayola colors taunt me from beyond.
But what of my path? This well tended path.
So constant and so true, who would doubt such a simple direction?
I creep on.
Cautious, wary of a misstep.
Sweet soft pale glow leads me on.
Ahead lies a problem. I can see it now
far away in its distance, yet immediate and hard to bear
I can see as I start to stumble, not far from here my path splits.
two new paths emerge. both beautiful, both treacherous
one constant, as before. Steady, sturdy, Sweet breezes and gentle flames. Heading towards eternity
one winding, convoluted. Pitch black, stained glass, neon sky and opal moon. sometimes hard to see
I look to the air, the glorious sky. No answers here.
Suggestions and dreams pull back and forth
me a ragdoll to my own dilemma
Shuffling feet and sidestep nervously
look behind, no way back. Look beyond no easy track
blindfold, spin around. Take a step..........
Unknown, but on my way.................

Yesterday, soon Tomorrow
It seems like just yesterday
I was young, carefree.
I knew what I wanted and I knew how to get it
nothing could stop me, I flowed like the wind.
but is Todays confusion what I envisioned?
the heartache, the strife, my lack of connection with me?
No longer the stormy wind, now a rain puddle
still fluid, craving movement, but stuck.
Tired of stagnancy. Feel like evaporating.
Dissolving my substance to one day, take again to the air
and again fly in the wind.
Tomorrow I'll rain down on your up-turned face
and quench your thirst

Blind to the outside.
Mirrors crack. Shatter.
Drop our masks, scream
Fingertips can't quite reach.
Feel like a tattered seam.
Find a new pose.
carry on.
Brew the coffee, smell the rose.
Simply not what it seems.

When it Rains......
Five long years
Hundreds of thousands of tears
All the joy and all the pain,
I'll think of you when it rains.
I really dont want to let go
But what else to do, I dont know.
All this misery we've been feeling,
This time its sent me reeling
How I wish it didint have to be this way
I can only hope we'll be okay.
Five long hard years
Hundreds and thousands of tears
I hope to God that you'll miss me,
You'll regret this choice, someday, you'll see.
Even with this perfect child we made
Our love just couldnt seem to help but fade.
All our joy and all our pain...
I'll think of you when it rains...........

Five long hard years
Hundreds and thousands of tears
I hope to God that you'll miss me,
You'll regret this choice, someday, you'll see.
Even with this perfect child we made
Our love just couldnt seem to help but fade.
All our joy and all our pain...
I'll think of you when it rains...........
Treading Shallow Water

Treading Shallow Water (First time Ive written a poem in YEARS)
Red Rose petals on my Pillowcase
Like the kisses you left for me
Wrinkled and faded
A pale memory of who we used to be
I see a bright shimmer from the corner of my eye
I wonder if its you
Or just another Lie.
I never know when you'll be here
Or if I'll have to watch you go
I try to drown my sadness
But this waters just not that deep
I tell myself tomorrows different
That the grass'll be greener on another side
I know someday we'll be happy
Until then I'll try not to cry
I blow kisses to the wind
But can only wonder if they're caught
I'm pale and stagnant like the moon
Lost with no sun to reflect
The joy inside me is buried treasure
I hope you figure out the map
I try to drown my sadness
But this waters just not that deep
I tell myself tomorrows different
That the grass'll be greener on another side
I know someday we'll be happy
Until then I'll try not to cry
I've allways hated rollercoasters
I just want this ride to stop
I want to stop and breathe a while
What I wouldn't do to mean it when I smile
This lonliness I can hardly take
Why oh why cant you reciprocate?
I try to drown my sadness
But this waters just not that deep......
