Beyond the Deep

And here, here you stand
In the hollow of the fairy tree
Smiling down at Holly
Holding Ben's young hand

Vital..so present...
In this photograph
I seek

But this image cannot
Chain you here
No matter that we bleed

Now...look deeper into
Deep green eyes
Look deep beyond the deep
I see it now so plainly
And you were never ours
To keep

The Bleeding of Ruby

on every corner there is a red thing
depleted and draining away
growing pinker and pinker
trickling and fading
depleted, and now
completed

there is no effort
no fuss
just a weary soft trickle
this is no
flooding gush

just a soft soft trickle
the faint bleed of a heart
that had once pulsed a ruby
that had once been, so lush

Cherish

See it
Really see it, for
You will not own it too long
It can do nothing ever, but
Sing its own tune
Own all the rights
To its song

Know it,
Really know it, for
You will not know it
Too long
Best you can do is
To learn the sweet words
Memorise every
Soft lilt
Of it's song

Feel it
Really feel it, for
You will never.. have.. hold..
As your right, for
Love will most certainly 
Set itself free
Untangle it's beauty
Inevitably flee, so

Cherish it

Really... cherish... it...
