Lover With Green Eyes

My luck is buried within the green of your eyes,
cast your blessed stare upon me, I am lost
in the intensity of those eyes - your eyes beloved.

I dream in hues of jaded greens, with long
stares and gifted fingers, satin sheets
on naked skins, and you... just you.

Fly me to those unknown heights,
twined in silk our bodies delighted,
inseperably melded into one.

Dance in my emotions with your gaze,
spell my name with tongue and lips
Until every moment echoes - just you... just you.

A World Apart - II

Juliette, blue dreamer
spin me a dream on clouds,
one to sway me to sleep,
filled with hope.

I see the world in your eyes,
a world I have never known,
let me in, dreamer
dance me to the stars.

Lay in the field of dandelions
and let's blow our wishes
into the wind and watch
them twirl away.

We will sleep under the ocean,
looking up at the sky
through the shimmer of waves,
with diamond eyes.

Take me to that world
where tears are only of joy,
where love speaks my name,
and I am never alone.

North by Northwest

I waited for you beneath the western hemlock
in my hair tucked behind my ear, a pink rhododendron.

The willow goldfinch overhead sat, singing
its wild canary song.

We shall drift on the place like wild seeds
blown in the wind.

Cascades of needles fall around me, as I
sit waiting for that beautiful man to come
walking through the trees, eyes always on me.

My heart beats in the northwest, my home
is where we lie together under the hemlock
sharing kisses and counting stars.

Seeing and Believing

I first saw you sitting in the ivy,
beneath the tall oak

The wind blew soft clouds
through your hair.

Your eyes came alive
at the sight of me, sun
shining through their hue.

Then you smiled at me,
that heart-melting,
make-me-weak-in-the-knees smile.

So I sat in the english ivy with you,
beneath the tall oak, in the moment
between our eyes, in which no words
were needed.

You wrapped your arms around me,
and I have been there ever since,
leaning against you, breathing with you,
believing in the nature of us.

Quicksilver Night

Two am end of the night,
bare feet on the white sanded
road, and it starts to rain.

You sit in the car, watching
as I look up at the sky
and smile at the feeling on my skin.

Chill in the air invades
behind the trails of wet,
and goosebumps appear.

Rain caresses my hair
sectioning it into tresses
clinging with moist possessiveness.

My dress becomes a lover
clinging to my curves,
holding me tight.

I dance in the rain,
in the black of the night
under moonlit clouds.

I am your silver seductress,
swaying with my own music,
you unable to look away.

In time, time too will stop

Like time, I too have become weary of my being. Unable to turn around, unable to stop. Its a hypnotic tick, that keeps me alive. The winding, the shaking, the distasteful battery of life.

Can anyone hear my screams between each second or see my tears raining from 12 to 6. I want to shatter the glass that hold me in and burst out of the smooth metal wheels that keep me screwed in.

Death promises everyone, but to me, it torments. Forcing me to watch the world die.

Infusion

I found myself tonight,
never knowing I was looking,
but there I was
waiting for myself.

Emotions steeped in memory,
truth serum made from the teas
of time and flavored with
bittersweet tears.

One lump or two,
rising in my throat like
the thickening emotions
of my past.

Can't Stop the Noise

Typing the words only seems to have given life to it,
to the paranoia that has plagued me all morning,
and now I am steeped in it.

I gave all of myself, held nothing back,
Only to realize I threw myself into the wind,
ashes scattered across the sugar-sand road.

No way to tell where it begins and I end -
recycled love from past lives I try to hold
together, to make it work.

My dysfunctional mind has vomited
all over my disjointed hands and
I can't seem to get past it.

I've broken it.
I've ruined it,
and when I need you the most,
you can't be here.
