Regaining Sheen

rarely
a pearl 
rolls onto
the shores
of your life
timing must be just right
cadence and tide
humble downward glance
onto the wet sand
where it all began

despite the temptation
to keep it locked away -safe 
never take a pearl home
beauty is only borrowed
never owned..
but if you must
roll it ever so gently between 
tenderness- lust 
just remember
its heat belongs to no one
and if

Assurity After Storms

Sea of searching tore hope without explanation 
Crucified crests cascaded, crazed static fall crashing
Thrown spontaneous needs, unclean situations 
Wayward waltz of flotsam incongruity, faith attacking

Tossed by tumult of quick duty drifters expected 
Wanton women sought whimsy single wave provided

Your initial impression of love soured, ineptly guided

Passing storms glinted possibilitiy,

now as I hear the rolling voice of tides
such winds tell never forget yesterday
recall what held mind or body in such a place

Regaining Warmth

thoughts 
wrap me 
in warmth
this wind

Regaining Self Through Betrayal

               My heart   and on my pores…these sorrows bring,
Pained deceit--- lies hiding a false worship
Of affection that plays me like a string

Regaining My Gift

You took my gift

to feed your habit

If only in solitude

 I wish it was given
.
Addiction too strong

your blinded by it's wrong.

So I stay hollow, gift less

and palms full of empty.

Heavy is your load

you carry your purchase

a transaction you stole to make

From... my pockets, my purse, my mind

no peace

Your sticky fingers constantly rob me.

I am left
