we are free spirits
dancing to a cosmic tune
drifting on star wind

in so many ways
we are killers and victims -
sometimes all at once.

we sing with our eyes
a symphony of heartstrings
we speak in love songs

such a strange world into which i have wandered. so deep in daydreams, the sun becomes the moon becomes the single working streetlight in a neglected neighborhood. i’ve lost my bearings, no sense of direction, no markings on the road. i’m a stranger to this part of town. what am i waiting for? the next sunrise, the next exit, the next train out of here. this map is misleading,...

here we stand, deathless;
our hearts are mighty towers,
monuments of love.

my heart condition’s serious
infection so mysterious
i’m in a daze, delirious
this pounding pulse i feel
and i don’t need your charity
but please provide some clarity
my dear, you are a rarity
pray tell me what is real
and i need no vindication
if it’s any indication
common sense is on vacation
and passion takes its place
and our hearts as one are beating

you shine your sunbeams
on cloudy daydreams
my heart is home
when it wanders to you
in silver moonlight
and highest noon light
through parts unknown
i wander to you

lost in the desert,
a starvation of the soul,
a thirst unsated.

please, enlighten me.
reach out through infinity
and take hold of me.

visions in the haze,
half-remembered yesterdays.
the past fades away.

what’s a game you can never win? a staring contest with the ceiling. oh, the times i’ve tried. when sleep shies away from you in the blackest hours of the morning, what more fun is there to be had? don’t blink, your mind tells you. perhaps you whisper it, knowing no one can hear you, and it rings out in the silence. what’s the point? what’s the point of a game you can...

The President’s the head honcho, commander-in-chief,
He can pardon any criminal without any grief.
He can make foreign treaties, in peace or in war,
He can appoint judges, ambassadors and more.
He runs the state militias when they’re put into use,
He can veto legislation, saying “Yo Congress, I refuse”.
But he can’t go to war without Congressional approval
And he can’t protect himself if they seek...

There's no one quite like you on this earth.

in every vestige of immortal time
and every corner of eternal space
you find your heart the victim of a crime
yet innocence shines bright upon its face;
serenity that lingers in the eyes
of souls so weary, longing for reprieve
as splendid tides of fervent love arise
and what you give, in kind you shall receive.
and time, almighty time, heals any wound
but leaves a wake of ever present...

illusions, phantoms, your mind is a ghost town. dreams blend with memories, pictures in your head are as real as the sights out your window. time slows through waking hours and slips under heavy eyes and what’s a dream but a world you make, a world with no beginning, time with no dawn, and you never notice. melding with the past like a face in the crowd, visible in its own right and yet it...

a vivid recollection

my words are merely the surface - the shimmering, undulating droplets of thought that rise and fall with the tides of love and fear, memories and dreams; the tides that pull us through time, our driving forces. beyond the surface, beyond what eyes can see, beyond what hands can touch, lies a lost world, omnipresent yet invisible, like a mirage that lingers in your mind long after it has left your...

you allowed your heart
to wander alone at night.
now, where has it gone?

to count the ways in which my heart is yours
the ways in which you’ve taken hold of me
the ways in which your soul i do adore
would take century upon century.
to count the reasons why i live for you
the reasons why you captivate my dreams
the reasons why to you my heart is true
would take millennia in endless streams.
my passion time itself could not contain;
as ages pass your flame...

i am so lost in you. for the life of me i can’t remember when i last knew my heart, when i last knew it was safe and sound. it’s been a while. you seem to run and hide, and my heart gets carried away with you, as if ensnared and drawn to you by a loose thread of your light reaching out to pierce me and shake me and consume me. i don’t fear this as i feel i should; i welcome it, yearn for it....

why wish upon starry skies?
they are much too far to hear.
i wish on your starry eyes;
to my heart they’re always near.

quelquefois je sens perdu dans une royaume des ombres. et tu es la lumière qui me donne la vue que je ne trouve pas ailleurs. grâce à toi je peux voir le monde à travers les nouveaux yeux, en façons que je n’ai jamais pu avant. et tu es peut-être la personne la plus importante de ma vie à cause de tout que tu as fait pour moi. je ne peux jamais te remercier assez.

a rose of cerulean
a summer snowfall
