Fear Not My Friend

You sit and sulk,
Knowing each humman to run the other way,
Feeling you near and being afraid.

Fear not dear spirit,
Though they dont see you,
I see you.
They call you wicked,
I call you friend.

For you talk to me,
You are there when all are gone,
You speak to me when nobody else will.

I am yours,
You are mine,
Dear spirit.

Stay and talk to me,
Be my friend as I have none,
Be my lover as mine flees,
In return I will be yours,
As you have had to depart from yours,
Unruly and evily against your will.

Your blackened eyes,
Those rough hands with soot,
I place my hand in yours,
Watching my white as snow plam,
Gracefully, lay in yours,
With my soft blue eyes looking upon you.

Shall we dance my friend?
You pull me close,
Blissfully and fearlessly,
I sway with you,
To an oldened tune,
From an age far from mine,
With a familiar ring.

My breast to yours,
Our fingers intertwined,
Two different worlds together,
In a lovingly friendly bind.

We swing around this quiet corridor,
You comfort me sweetly,
You call me yours.
The sweat of your brow,
Your tanned workers skin,
A tale of many from way back then.

I am intreaged by you,
You stranger and friend,
You old man and lover,
So forbidden,
Even when I am the only one who sees you,
Yet I love you too much to go,
Too much to rid you from my being.

I don't care if they cannot see you,
I can. And I love you.
I dont care if they don't know you,
For I know you very well, My love.

Never shall I rid you,
Nor will I forsake you.
I layed my pale face against him,
On his dark and dirty once spiffy shirt.
I held onto him,
He held onto me,
We are all eachother has,
So fear not MY friend.
Nothing can stop me,
From going into the depths,
Not even the world forbidding it.

Typewriting On the Beach

T houghtfully I write and the keys
Y elp as puppy dogs with every stroke,
P assionatly filling my heart while the
E nd of the line brings a bell that, as a
W riter, is my lover.
R ays of sun shining as
I ntense as my joy,
T hat comes from such bells,
I nevitably creating a smile.
N ow, I am unstoppable. Such a passionate letter
G rowing as steadfastly as my young heart flows.

O nly now may I feel the ambience,
N othing can sadden these eyes.

T ogether, we type and all is well.
H eat to liven my pulse and light to my
E yes, the art acrostics.

B elieving in the things unseen,
E asy to young hearts not these,
A s the faith in my heart flutters,
C reating a light for my path.
H ow new all feels, typewriting on the beach.

Loves Purpose

Love- Lifes Joyous pleasure.
To have and to give,
To show to others.
Such a Beauty to have,
A true Fruit of the Spirit.
True love-a Treasure, Purely- It's Magic.

History

Clicks and bells,
Time and effort,
To write and to learn.
While holding close,
With such passion and care,
My piece of history.

Complete

Typing away,
Freeing my mind,
Hugging my soul,
Knowing all is fine.

Poetry without and with rhyme,
Poetry with new forms,
So much can be done,
No moments are forlorn.

I am complete,
As I type and feel love,
As I find my love and my friend,
From whom I am never apart.

To My Love

I fight my tears,
Then sleep still,
Sung there by memories.
All memories of you,
My dear,
As I think of you.

Remembering of how you held me,
Dreaming of how we danced,
Crying over how you left,
Smiling over the hugs,
Laughing over my fears.

Our time- So short and long,
A weekend yet a lifetime,
As I look in the mirror,
Then see an empty person,
A me without you here.

To my love,
Whom I miss so dearly,
Hold me close in thought,
As I hold you close to me.

I dance alone,
Dream alone,
One large and empty bed,
In which I cry alone.

I am at a loss for words,
I am too busy dreaming for you,
Can't you stay a moment?
We could dance again,
This night could be ours.

Steal this moment with me,
My love,
Take my hand,
Hold me as you have for years,
Kiss me as you did in September,
Look at me once more as you have been since 2008.

We could lay by the river,
Once more,
As we held on to each-others,
Nothing more,
So we could make it through this wandering life,
Together.

To my love,
Come home soon,
Our children are watching,
Don't let them see their mom cry,
Come be with me again,
Let me fall back in your arms,
As that joy would retake my soul,
At the sight of you holding my heart.
