Air

Standard

Sitting on the front porch swing

Watching the clouds transform

As they swirl

And crash into each other;

Mixing and changing so naturally.

Separate ,

Then together.

Separate

And one.

Give and take; meld.

Never the same cloud remains

When i take my eyes away.

And they dance on

Dissapating

Becoming the air that I breathe.

I look back and they are gone;

And look back.

Blank

Standard

And her mind,

It goes blank

Before you can blink.

She is smiling

All the while hating herself.

And they keep talking

And talking

And she keeps laughing.

And she excuses herself to the bathroom

Where

She stares in the mirror

Wondering if she is really here.

Why all this noise?

Just noise

Coming from mouths who don’t care

What a heart beat is.

This air;

The air that leaves her lungs

As she whispers your name,

As you press against her

And hold her steady.

As you take her where she needs to go

Without hesitation.

We sit in the quiet and

Hear the stars resonate

In our very bones.

It’s all ok.

Breathe in unison.

You don’t even need to say

It is all okay.

Dare

Standard

Dare to drink
The poem
That is me.
Dare to let
My moves settle
In your soul.
Dare to take me
Whole.
Lie with me in grass of green.
Dream with me in clouds of white.
Dance with me in days of wonder.
Dream with me in nights of slumber.
Feel this life upon our skin.
Drink the untrained passion
Hear the pulse of satisfaction.
Ride the endless heat
In this divine existence.
And you will know
You have the
Steadfastness
To dare.
Take me whole.
I dare
You.
