swept away

time ~ life ~ time.

~

i hate time.

it walks too slow

when i want it to run fast.

it runs too fast

when i want it to walk slow.

~

here in lies the conundrum…

time is life.

life is time.

what am i saying?

~

i hate my life?

~

I awaken

ς

After a long night

alone,

I awaken to words of longing desire.

They touch my imagination

and

spark a connection ~

warming my thoughts

and

as the sun breaks

through

the cold morning air

 ~ I ask ~

“Can you see the glistening lips

you so desperately long to taste?”

ς

ς

trails…

.

a trail of tears

leads

to a puddle of sorrow

but

a trail of kisses

leads

to a river of dreams…

.

.

dismissed

*

loving and trusting

a completely exposed heart

always pushed aside

*

*

 

if…maybe…

~  ~  ~

if you wrap

me

in your blanket of light

~ maybe ~

i will not self destruct

amidst

this darkness

in

my

mind

~  ~  ~  ~  ~

solitude

*

*

buried deep beneath layers

soft soothing flannel sheets

toasty warm down blankets

never another to share

*

*

this…

~

this lonely heart

cries

to be touched

~

this lonely heart

bleeds

to be loved

~

this lonely heart

wants

only

you

~

a quiet view

~

gestures

~

simple

fundamental

unconditional ~ ~ ~

~

holding a hand

a hug

a kiss ~

~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ what i miss the most.

~

~

 

to breathe

*

if i had the wings of an eagle

i would soar across the sky ~ ~ ~

flying as fast as i could

~ never stopping ~

until i land at your feet.

 *

i would hold you close,

never let go,

dry your tears with rainbow kisses ~

then

lift you up,

whisk you far away

where only our lives

and

dreams

can

breathe

*

 ~ an eagle in the sky ~
