Take In

Posted on by

Come my love
Soften your skin onto mine.
Let go all barriers.
Let go all doubt.
Let go the veil that hides
Your heart.
Your eyes.
And allow yourself
Contentment.
Allow yourself this moment.
Let your hands wander.
Eyes open to see.
Feel it seep away;
The fear.
Come my love
Indulge your wanting.
Feel again in you
That which has been hollow,
That which has been longing.
And
Together let us
Take in love.

My Home

Posted on by

on the open road again

sunlight in my eyes

windows down

and the wild wind whipping my hair about

i breathe

and keep driving

with nowhere to go

radio turned off so

i can hear my thoughts

my heart

and the birds

i go down any road i wish

and soak in the beauty

i touch the beauty

this beauty that rescues me

and holds me up

reminds me everywhere is home

i am my home

All of Me For Me

Posted on by

For so many years I hid bits of myself.
I tucked
My favorite Legos in the floorboards,

In the house where the gun went off.

Hoping someday someone would find them and

Create something admirable.

I wrote my name in nooks
And secret places hoping someday
Someone would read me;

My book.

I placed my voice in a jar
And put it in a corner
Hoping someday
Someone would find it,

Open
It and hear me;

My song.

I am going back and collecting these bits of me
Myself.
For I know my worth now
And those bits are too lovely to keep hidden

In dark places;

Too lonely to wait any longer

Simply wishing to be found by another.

All of me for me.
