Short Walk On Air Poems

You know...
I have finally decided to wait.
I realize your not ready.

I realize it will take years...
to think I am calm and steady.

And quietly I'll bow out, as if I was never really there.
I will remember and softly smile.

And then I'll walk on air....

Living life in free fall
looking down far below
praying that someone 
will come along
to save my soul.

Trying to walk on air
grasping at the wind
I fall faster
and faster.
Not knowing when
I will hit the ground
or who will mourn
my demise
and impending
disaster.

The great force
That may raise me to a saintly cloud.
I walk an air of calm delivery,
Above the torrent and hollow reproach
To the gaping breath and bliss, I say!
Send each thought into the winds, dipped in mercury.
For truly, there is none more beautiful than the open sky,
When it is seen through the view of the solitary eye....

There was a time
when we walked on air.
You have to be young to walk on air
younger than the first taste of red lips
but older than any fairy tale,
yes, much older.
Love is timeless
or perhaps time is loveless,
yet we keep trying
to nail it to a broken barn door
as if we had words
new enough, or wisdom
deep enough....

Like manna from the morning dew
Like sugared skin I'm sweet on you
In silence on this road alone
No hint of contemplation shown
And if the day should ever come
To have you as my chosen one
I'd walk on air, I'd float on sand
My all I'd give to hold your hand
I'd play my song in to your soul
An echo of a heart made whole...

I walk on air
I walk on water
I walk on clouds
I walk on sand
I walk the earth
I walk with you
Hand in hand

Soul to soul
Together, we are
Alive, free
Of fear
Of inhibition
Of failure
Of loss

No fear of pain
Just pure love
We gaze at each other
Spirits in unison
Together once more
To walk once again
Hand in hand
Towards the light
With you
I walk on air...

My eyes went searching for my frosted window,
'O' the joy of seeing the color white,
As my nerves stand while the wind blows,
Showing all it's chilly might.

The vehement fire blazing warm,
As I immerse into my chair,
And it's beautiful poesy form,
Elates me to walk on air.

A book I read to follow,
For my morning of delight,
Might my words not be shallow,
To end my winter sight....

The cool air felt refreshing
In the warm café
As tired patrons enter
Hardened from their days.

A man sits by his lonesome,
Gazing at the world
That sits outside the window,
As the leaves begin to swirl.

His reflection stared back at him;
That same insisting look,
Wishing him to carry on
A road other than what he took.

The lonesome man then stood tall
To walk through air, and leaves, and wall....

Keep me off your mind in other words don’t mind me

Because when you were always on my mind your mind was on other things

And now that you’re off my mind you finally realized what you were missing

No wait, what you ignored because while I had a fairy tale plan in store, you wanted to write your own story and in this story I’m the floor

No respect but needed and walked all over

Over and over we’re over no more

P.S. I hope you can walk on air...

Close your eyes, and start to hear
Upon a moon-lit night
My words of love, whispered near
Through darkness to first light

Feel my arms surround you there
My breath upon your skin
To fill you full of loving care
And take you once again

Walk the dreams that we both share
Embraced by perfect love
Let's leave the world and walk on air
To a paradise undreamed of

I am always with you everywhere
My soul is part of your own
This love we know so very rare
The knower and the known...
