Dancing Indecision

I’m aching silently

My tears collide

With feelings never shown

Who holds the answers

To cold, dark cliffs

A silent drifting fog

Drifting knowledge quietly

To whom do I go for warmth?

The sun is found wanting

For none but lack of trying

Where do I reside for strength?

I’m hidden beneath this frailty.

Softly spoken thoughts

Emptiness, no designation

Love written by cold moonlight.

Shadows creep as my thoughts are stolen

Mere reflections off my mirror

I reach for my reality

Nimbly, it dances away

I don’t know where to go from here

To inspire, or to stray

To live under the sunlight

Where drops of fire fall,

As I dance in flaming pools...

Or sing away,

Under deep streams of starlight

Answering only

To the shooting rays...

Calm me

Breathe me

Dream me now to sleep

Whatever dances, beneath my eyelids

It is mine

Mine only

To keep.

Tear Streaked Canvas
My skies are a dark tear stained canvas of black
Stark passions threaten the edge
I cry for the freedom
My lips never tasted
My tears never once hit his eyes.

A flower of fields dared to cry ever deeper
But deepness consumes ever darkly.
Reach for the light
But crystal essence blinds.
Where is the middleground?

This drink of water now parches my lips
Where can I be resolute...
Bittersweet pain, no balming light
Empty freedom, no tranquil shade.

A heart so abused,
No light dusting can settle
No beating, just throbbing, the pain
Do I grab for the sun,
To be burned by its essence
Or lie in the darkness
Where every shadow screams...

Where is my middleground? 
I hold no peace.
Nature's Midnight

Ethereal strains of heavenly chorus

Pursue to the ear of the listener

Dancing grasses invite

You stand amongst them

Arms stretched heavenward

Face shined upon by the sun

Hair flowing in the kissing wind

You’re astounded by nature’s glory

Hills overflow with the seasonal gold

Trees laden with strings of emeralds

With the stealth of a cat, the summer nights fall

Pinpricks of crystal emerge

Silver moonlight traces your face

Leaves sing the song of night winds

Your midnight

Never held so pure

The Drifting Unknown

drifting in an emerald sea of emptiness

my silent cries unheard

i reach towards an ever-present warmth of light

my non-existant teardrops,

             falling on the wind.

straining and pursuing

my myriad existance seems a feeling mess

escaping distant chains

rusted locks fall heavily to the hard, cold earth

brittle pools of ice hold my expressionless expression

a beauty flies above me

dreaming of a mist-filled night

a summer eve not craved

breathing in the passionate empty air

this dance of life, a vision

my thoughts swirl like unsettled leaves in my head

distand jewels in the night sky

             light my world so faintly

errors performed so innocently

where am i

where have i been

why does your face haunt my dreams?

screaming for a knowledge to hold

a tear as dry as dust

thirstiness plagues me...

unknown, i shatter at your feet.

Silver Dreams

morning now grows slowly old

wandering the star-lit paths

the silence grows now loud

grasping unseen threads of love

her heart is on a string

bubbles of other lives she sees

drifting on the winds

laughter, tears unseen pain

silver eyes imagined

gazes of a pure white light

senses dulled yet sharpened.

her hands are graced by silver rings

her gown of streaming silver strands

long shimmering hair - lit by the moon

her laugh like silver waves

her eyes of shining sapphire.

dancing in the misty rain

flowing with light and grace

hiding blows of pain and emptiness

her silver sands of time...

crowned with glory

shining tiara fades dim

boxes silver, heart shaped, lie

unopened, dusted with time

waiting, moving, dancing on

white flowers in her hair

blinding mists flow in her world

fading all from view

quiet laughter in the distance...

tears fall on her silver sands

silver streams slide down her fair face

she dances now on fallen rain

a midsummer night is her life forever

a dream of dance and unheard music

crystal notes shine wet with dew

her life is but a dream

angels chorus in lilting voice

her dance of life, a dream

inside her midsummer's eve.

Shadowed Myriad

I twist beneath a veiled passion

My tears are cried within

Silence, unbearable silence

Fills my soul and my mind

My mind, a myriad of hidden thoughts

Fetal I feel, I resume to live again

Nothing will pry me away.

For passion and its firey fingers

Are wrapped tightly around my being...

A sense of loss but a rush of hope

Longing so strong, it stings

Tracing frail features,

A dark consumes me

My strength is a world apart.

Fighting, weak fury encompasses my sight

I fall to the ground unmercilessly

Bitter cold winds trace my features

Heat is known only within

A passion, a warmth

A strength from afar

Young iciness...send your spirits away.

Black Silk

Strained chords of song unite

A twisted ballad, dripping eyes

Gentle pattering, invisible rain drenches my being

I move within the winds

Close painful eyes of visions

Jolted into sudden rush

Dulled colors stream and streak from all

Ice falls from half-lidded eyes,

Deep dark gaze that pierces all

Echoes of distand pasts cry silent,

Cold hands grasp for throats to free

Into this iridescent world

Blinded by this darkness flowing

Twilight brings a dying life

To bask amongst the stars

Moons of knowledge revolve around

Vertigo confused,

A smiling sob drives madness.

Sinking and floating,

All light is drowned

Flags of worlds once known fly dead

Blackened wisps of silk,

Waver in the wind

Immersed in all of this I pause

Eyes close, succumb to all the mess

Surrender to the dark.

 

Renew Me

drops of sunlight rain down my soul

their purity like fire

a whisper in the breeze flies by

calling me to come...

to dance and sing

this whisper invites

to find the hidden laughter

breaking down the unseen walls

the whisper is persistant

but bubble lives are mine to watch

safe, at a distance.

with one frail blow the end could come

to break the frailness within.

despair and emptiness hide unseen

a hole yet waits for filling

a new summer's dawn appears in silence

birds of life fly freely

the whisper calls to me again

this time, i agree

no longer watching bubble lives

i begin anew

searching for that hidden laughter

trying to see the music

golden sunlight bathes my world

shining secrets, like stars, hide my soul

you enter me and give me breath

a fresher air not tasted

slowly emptiness is filled

i'm basking in your love

let us begin anew.
