A Desert Storm

I wander on that restless plain,	

Somewhere between ecstasy and pain	

Where the common world cannot touch,

The piece of my soul that I’ve missed so much.



Our bodies were dancing in the dark,

Like two long lost loves, who’ve been apart,

Somehow reunited on this desert plain

Somewhere between pleasure and pain.



The attachment I feel has paralyzed me.

It’s a white hot ball of intensity

It’s a puffy cloud in the desert sky

It’s a crashing tidal wave of desire.


That long ago and far away

Connection that we touched that day.

My life has been changed forever

I’ll never forget that 12th of September...


Our timeless love astonishes me so

The strength of it shows me it’s centuries old.

It’s something that carries an infinite price

Like trying to buy a ray of sunlight.It came on like a crack of thunder....

It’s a brilliant bolt of lightning I am standing under.

Rolling like a desert storm.

It possesses a mysterious, dangerous charm


It gives me a lump in my throat, I can’t swallow

It’s something I want to savor so slow 

It’s evident it’s not an everyday, ordinary love

It’s the kind everyone’s been dreamin’ of


We got lucky and found it

Now there’s no way around it

and no way to ground it

So let’s grab on and hold it tight in our hearts...

A New Place To Run To

Here I stand alone  The new kid once again  When will I belong  I always take it on the chin. 
This place that Ive landed in like a sick bird reminds me of somewhere pleasantly familiar. 
Could this be  the place that I will want to run to.. when I need a friendly smile  Could this be 
the home I never had.. or just another cold unforgiving city street with busy grouchy passers 
by that wont give a hello or the time of day..time tells all

Something In a Song

Days are long, the nights are goin on
					

Some days are short, the others are so                                                        long.

The flowers bloom all at once,	

Then they all are gone..		

Life is just a fragrance,

something in a song....

Sometimes the moon beams bright,

other times its just so dull


Breathing in seems so right

when you’re growing old.		


I anticipate the greatness of my life
Things have gone wrong  for far  to long

It’s time for things to fall in place like something in a song.........
