Enchantress
You arrive like the first word of a language I didn't know I was born to speak— slender as the space between breath and prayer, a rose opening in the dark of my closed mouth. That glance of yours cuts through me clean, the way morning light splits an empty room in half: before you, after you. How do I unknow the weight of your absence? How do I...

I Surrender All Be grateful. For the food on the table. Show methe way. Have patience through the day. I shall not want. I surrender all. Pray for the lost. Keep holding on. Remember these simple words. Hold up the light in the dark....

The Stillness Beneath Me
The Stillness Beneath Me They said I’d know I’m fully alive when laughter bloomed or sorrow cried. But both are gusts that pass me by— and neither one has ever lied. Yet neither tells the whole of me. They come, they go—I watch, I breathe. The truth is not the thrill or ache but what remains when both do leave. Contentment is a quieter...

Lay your head back lover, relax your troubled mind; let me fill your world with peace, leave the past behind. Fill the night with pleasure, sweet, erotic bliss, movement of both place and time, suspended with a kiss. Lift your heart to soar above, gaze into my eyes, the single sound to reach our ears, love's releasing sighs. Entwined as one, a single cord, we'll surrender in the...

Nocturnes of Surrender
You speak, and my spine remembers that I was built to bow. Your breath: a nocturne in C sharp minor— unasked, entering… disarming, following. You lean in like Chopin leaned on silence— possessively, melancholic need before sound—searing hushes that demand submission in return. And I am raindrops to your sustaining notes…. storming into the song’s development— I become the keys, and you the...

Your faith is your flight
"Your faith is your flight" I was once broken, but now I have gathered myself, There was a lesson hidden in every tear, I have taught myself. Only those who recover while falling know how to walk, And those who have faith in God, they consider defeat as victory. Fear is a deception, which forces you to stop, But God's name...

Hark! The birds are driving me crazy so lazy, to get up and fly with them whirling my lasso finger ‘round their wings, pulling them into my heart a dart straight through, you never know when hits you between the eyes, spirals spin heartbroken; and the birds are driving me wild winsome and carefree in the sunny breeze whilst i soak in my...

Son of the Amphritite
The ocean is calm tonight, its waves gently reaching old friends on the shore. The sky fades, vanishing into the night. The tides move in harmony, watching the distant moon above. The ocean of faith, longing for its presence, cries for release. He pleads infront of the sea to take him in, but the giver of life responds with a melody. The tides rise,...

While the past still overshadows my dreams At times, I see the forest in spite of trees Huge oaks – leaves of doubt fading from their limbs Silent pines, wistful stories falling in cones of shame Whirlybirds from maples, feeling lost amid the chaotic world so grim While the past may feel like a cloak of sorrow Dimming the light of...

Sonnets Before Surrender and The Building That Follows
The war refuses the head, below wasting in dead Rearing the front as storms fell the timbers rot Upheavals breast, shorn and filled in neglect Lay useless she had cried, allow dimple and deny Tis only folly we are joined from, seasons blurry Contemptuous fury, theatrical brevity, lifeless Burning misery, hasn’t all gone and come Just so fiddle and spun, as garnish...

The Pause That Holds Me
The world does not beg to be held today Doesn't demand my voice or my chase It simply asks that I sit in the space between Where breath is enough Where time just is There's no urgency here No need to carve my name into the hours Only the soft surrender of being So I loosen the grip on the reins of time Letting...
