Hidden beneath the hopes and dreams, gentle

Breathing whispers of light over the soul
Remembering the...

Vanished

the wild magic of this place;

this wilderness I now roam alone
as its lifeblood seeps 
into 
Afterlife

across time and distance
go unanswered -

in my brethren’s song..

Before the mist rises over the tumbling surf…

Sounding like the goosebump tickles,
on the edges of naked breath,
awaiting the solace of prickly feelings

Forests of failure, feelings flowing
Breathless darkness, consuming the dreams
Erasing the joy, destroying the wonders
Coloring the hopes in silence that flings away
Music and dance, poetry and promises
From the heart who listens...

In a moment
Ten turns to twenty,
Then, thirty to forty,
Then, fifty to sixty…

In a moment…
Blessings are forgotten,
Sometimes simply ignored…
While hope is found in hearts
Who know the meaning of real love,
Love that abides in the soul…
Who knows...

To fall over my dreams, my prayers, the silence
Surrounding me with blankets of memories,

Unlike the seas, who believe
In keeping their secrets,
Seizing the hopes and dreams
Inspirations that agree

To the voice of greed – believes
Giving is the way to bring to life
Representative...

I knew the meaning of comfort
The whisper of grace
The joy of acceptance
The miracle of a place

Teasing caress of Divine...

Destroying the darkness
