YeahYeah
I am still here
Stuck
Cuffed
In place
By golden shackles
I wallow

And eat dust

round red lips like the petals on roses unfurled;
in the mist, the soft crimson of beckoning smiles
leave me hopeless to...

As we waltzed into the kitchen
My hand wraps around yours
As I flick on the stove top with the other.
You grab a pot out of the cupboard
And I grab...

getting tired of lasting confinement, decided to fly out.
On wings of the bed-sheet turning into a soaring swan
it started to flutter away before I...

It's eight
After so much learning and healing in seven
Now is the time to elevate
So go and create

Reminding me of the past.
Steam builds as it circulates around the fans
Lurching forward, with a spoon,
I taste a small droplet of the sizzling delight
Only to find myself reminded...

March of the ShadowsI hold my breath this night
a burning lungful
of the green and dying sea
that leaps then sinks
in the minor key
of sorrow’s deep and distant light

Rainbow's EndI’ve walked
Many a mile
Since every Rainbow’s End

Every pot of gold
Has stayed a wish ahead
I’ve walked
Many a mile
Through smoke-filled haze
And alcoholic daze
Melody now gone
From lonesome cities
I took no time
To listen...

I quicken to hear sleeping murmurs,
your heart dares to dream, My Love.
Yesterday’s memories
today’s fatigue
tomorrow’s journey.

Finishing Excitements in Living LifeOf many Trails walked
Many lie in new awesome
Lucid wonderment's.
Unexpected Gates
Found in curious dreaming's
Trails for exploring…
More, than I thought known
More, then I can understand
Add to living life.

Other Sun’s shining

Entwined together amid the sounds of the night
As the candle burns, making silhouettes in fire's light
Eye to eye, roaming fingers, and your sweetest kiss
No night could ever be any better than...
