Freedom

She is the freedom I seek
a breath of life
more than a momentary
flicker of light

I burn
lips pressed against her flame
releasing the pain

we, the water
falling by the way

I lick her bosom
and we're found,
getting lost,
in places we'd forever stay

You call me life, a breath upon the air, A guiding light to break the heavy night; Your spoken truth reveals a heart so rare, And turns my timid darkness into light.

Through all the noise and chaos on the street, When every passing shadow starts to grow, We stand against the storm and constant heat, And catch the golden inner light aglow.

words they come and sometimes flow...the sun gives hope when times are cold...the way the wind so gently blows...we're feeling young as days turn old

I feel a sonnet swirling in the aether...
