Hopelessly 

You stood there in the middle of the street Your breath frozen rising like a puff of cigarette smoke Slowly fading into nothing With the silence and patience of a statue   A form of goddess giving birth to dreams and whimsical fascinations  I can feel my heart beating  Faster than the sounds of fleeing…

In your eyes

For a moment we held eternity  Our hands wet with sand slipping Like an hourglass our seconds slowly faded Under a sunset of blue and pink  Next to an ocean of hope we renewed our love Slowly One step at a time Like the healing waves of the Pacific we healed our hearts  Healing each…

Sober Thoughts

New Years Poem

I wait for your your touch Your fingers touching my lips Your lips slow to follow Envy Time slowly sleeping  Seconds become days As my body craves you Hunger  Waking up to nothing Dreams as deceiving as wishing So afraid to lose    Falling When will I learn Not to take my dreams to heart …

My temple 

My fingers walked silently up your thighsYour body tremblingYour breath falling shallows  Your heart wide open to mine as we find all lengths of eternity in each other Music from the wind whispering through the trees as I worship in the temple of your body
