Cosmic Embrace

Standard

You find a ways to anchor me in this experience.

Existence.

A word, a fantasy

Entwined in the worlds of reality.

We run wild dissolving through 

Doorways;

Quantum dreams.

Holding hands in a faith divine

Transcending reason.

We dance the sacred dance just close enough to feel the heat alive

In one another,

As we balance in the fine 

Untethered line of in between;

And it keeps us going.

I whisper and you hear the echoes,

You cry and tears come from my eyes.

We are laughing as we come together in the

Cosmic embrace.

Eyes closed and hearts open.

True Nature

Standard

The bathtub faucet has been dripping for weeks,

I find peace in the sound that once grated me.

My cat has cried every night since his brother died;

He has now torn the curtains off the back door window

In his pursuit to turn the handle and escape outside.

It is his true nature of course.

My heart aches as well.

Merely

Standard

Forgotten windows and doors.

Rotten Wood

and

Rusty keyholes.

Spider webs and creepy crawlies underfoot.

Dare I peek behind the vined curtain?

Afraid to see who is watching me;

My legs shaking and betray my steady hand.

Hearing the echoes of heartbeats as I stand

Still and hold my breath.

Has time been forgotten

Here

Or is it merely waiting motionless

In the veil of between

Aching and remembering touch?

Apparition

Standard

You must have been an

Apparition.

A made up someone in my

Imagination.

For I wandered these stone stairwells

And

I roamed through

Winters withering garden

Following your song.

I knew I should find shelter,

Somewhere to warm my core.

But once outside I could return

Inside no more

For

I was met with barred windows and

Locked doors.

I found you in the courtyard.

I tried to reach you.

Touch you.

You vanished as I approached.

My fingers now cold and frozen,

I,

Left dreaming in the fog with ghosts and snowflakes.

And I remained alone

As I was all

Along.

I must have mistaken the

Wind howling through

Windows and doors,

Through

Winters garden

For your song.

Shut The Door

Standard

You got up and shut the door so

No one else could hear her crying.

(Ashamed)

You put your hand over  her mouth.

And turned out the lights

So you did not have to see

What you did to

Her.

(Ashamed)

And you act like nothing ever happened,

Like nothing ever

Changed.

No one else is the wiser

As they applaud you

And pat you on the back

While night terrors

Wrack her in awake time.

(Ashamed)
