The Flower Within

Hear not the silence in the new fallen snow
embankments high of drifted wonder hide
all that winter buries underneath its surface
and cocoons itself in an invisible whisper
when temperatures rise, sounds of rustling begin
from the depths of a volitional quietus 
small lives will break beyond their shells
as they ascend toward the sunlit heavens
and discover how to unleash their power
by finding the flower within.

Plasma

It’s the attraction of charged particles:
negative and positive swirling around a nucleus. 
Some would call this framework an article 
from an ancient energetic cumulus. 

You are to me as I am to you- 
with a quick ray’s burst of gamma.
Intertwined and betwixted, a centerfuge
complex creating a material plasma. 

Feel this magnetic pull as it imparts  
to combine and form a dynamic rampart?  

The electric current of the universe ignites, 
as our spirit molecules dance in the atmosphere.
Vapor wraps around that which incites
and we launch past the ionosphere.    

As our cells dissolve into the cosmos,
we mingle together as one in another 
and we open into the collective conscious-
it’s a breathless feeling like no other. 

We are to you as you are to us- 
We are more than a routine enigma. 
An equation will never be enough
to explain our sentient version of plasma.

Moon Over Aphrodite

Constellations brighten
while planets light the in-between.
Lifted above the evening,
the crescent begins to sink,
but one luminary guides
his journey from underneath.

Close witnesses advance-
partners who will never touch.
A dance defined by the ages;
the passion of unanswered love.
Except one glimpse remains enough
to spend forever on the run.

Forward, backward glide both
along the arc- moved out of sync.
A few nights a year, at least, 
each follows the other’s lead.
Course beyond the lovers’ grasp
but never too far from reach.

Breathe

Bittersweet, sorrowful, the air tonight tasted.
A gentle breeze swirled around and into me.
With each breath, I drank in the ambiance-
Fragrant, the autumn evening rushed me;
a smooth and potent red wine that
opened my disillusioned consciousness.
I surrendered my grief to the enchanted darkness.
My senses were dazzled and dizzied;
I couldn’t help but to drift away, freely,
under the guise of exaltation.
The strange panacean filled me up 
unlike any concoction I’ve ever known.
When the candles burned out and the sun rose,
the night fully possessed me.
Intoxication metamorphosed my being;
with an ever vanishing respire,
I withdrew further into the shadows-
Inhaled, I fell into its misty rapture.
Exhaled, I became a part of the velum.

Never Be Her

every time i reach out
you pull away 
i wish you could see me
instead of your past

i'm not who you see
i'm someone who's just me
i can't be what you're afraid of
i can only be me

i know you've had a rough time
but so have i
even though i can't be everything
at least i try

i'm not who you see
i'm someone who's just me
i can't be what you're afraid of
i'm only me

i hope you think it over
and give me an honest chance

i'm not who you see
i'm someone who's just a girl
i can't be what you're afraid of
i can never be her...
