the seventh night

i

look up

into the

glow of each flame

dreaming upon dreams ~

wishing upon wishes ~

for a miracle to bring

peace and harmony to our world.

humanity may be in trouble

but miracles have been known to occur…

right

?

~

almost a complete set…

~

a faraway light

~

these days of darkness

and

lonely, cold nights

bring

blankets of memories ~

laced with sorrow and tears…

always finding myself tangled

and

drowning in loneliness,

making wishes upon stars ~ faraway.

~

i am,

however,

not replete with misery ~

there is a voice in my heart which speaks ~

it embraces my soul,

holds my hand

and

lights a candle…

so

i can see…

engulfed

enchanted

transcending swells

my lover’s eyes

embraced by his soul

trails ~ ~ ~

~

day after day,

i have been living my life

wandering

aimlessly

along musty trails ~

stumbling one step at a time,

dodging demons of fear

and

monsters from my past.

~

i haven’t truly cared

which way

these paths would lead

or

if i got lost along the way,

my only thought has been for my little men

and

for their hopes and dreams to come true someday.

~

i still wander about these musty trails,

dodging my demons

and

monsters

~ however ~

i recently discovered a part of myself,

i thought had died many years ago…

~

~

~

these trails, though musty, are still my life ~

what matters

is the life

i breathe

and

with a loving heart walking by my side

i can stumble

and

feel safe

being

me

~

a hazy morning along the Des Plaines River Trail – a peaceful place for me

~

amazing

§

it is truly amazing how one soul can save another

with

only a few words

and

a caring heart ~

breathing life

into

a world which had fallen behind ~ ~

an existence

with no desire to move forward

or

wishing

simply

~ only ~

to

die.

§

§

a promise

~

the fabric of my heart is woven

with

the love i have for you ~

it is carefully stitched with hopes and dreams

and

kept safe within the depths of my being ~ ~ ~

where it will stay

until

the end of time ~

~

a midnight stroll…

~

i lie awake at night dreaming of your hands

to take me away

for a midnight stroll ~

feeling the warmth of your skin,

the strength of your pulse

and

drowning

in the beauty of your eyes.

~

my dreams

~ our dreams ~

can take us many places

we can go anywhere we want…

all we need is our desires,

the hopes we embrace

and

each other to travel beyond the stars.

~

~

can you imagine the romance and glory of Paris ~

her light radiating through our veins

and

the timeless beauty of Greece ~

making love under the moonlight

by a crystal blue sea

~

~

this world we live in

is

way beyond vast

and

the possibilities are endless in which to fly

but

know this

~ my love ~

there is no place i would rather be

as long as

i am walking by your side.

~

~

the beauty of night

~

 

 

to soar…far

~

from miles away,

your words

speak softly in my ear.

each word tapping into my senses

creating

a wealth of emotion ~ ~ ~

unleashing the spirit

to soar

above the heavens

into

a realm of dreams

and

~ desire ~

where

infinity

defies

all boundaries

of

distance

and

time
