You In A Song

Falling in love with a song is safe

It always sings and plays 

Temperate lulls that pull emotion to the ocean floor 

Soothes a mind full of winding thought

Presses peace into the temporal lobe when the world eradicates in excess explode 

Harmonious hues paint over yesterday's delays

Brings about memories the heart can't ignore

Stored in a warehouse of tiny words drifting above head, lyrically drowning out silence to a melodic beauty of thought

Phrases that outline you

A rhythm that plays a movie picture in my head of your lips pressed to mine, fingers interlocked, eyes entwined

You in a song, the moment is mine forever and ever

Every time I push play and drift away

Hourglass

Hourglass 

I pushed you down deep in my soul

I thought you knew, for you were born of wonder 

You who crave the chaos of lightning and thunder

Put these devilish fears of mine to rest

Too many a day, too many a test

I'm exhausted of bleak vagueness 

A dream caught up in black mystery-a magnificent beauty 

It allures and haunts, with lullaby's taunts 

All for a glance, a touch, a warm kiss 

All details wrapped up in more want

The mass clock running my mind won't unwind, it's shook up, it has now lost time

Remind me why i am here 

God of this vast world in which I explore

Am I just a chess piece you move with ease

My heart is stitched with passion, I can not love in the shallows

My deepest desire is the aim to please 

Pressed words into a barren letter lay every unanswered prayer and question 

Stirring up release in a free hand 

Slip through my fingers and become one with the sand

For this place I stand 

Is my life of belonging 

For now, in an hourglass, being poured out in upside down gravity of  motion

Whimsical Play

Whimsical Play~

I like it here in my head

There's never a storm

Nor a poet dead

Instead, A Craft of whimsical play 

No oppositional delay

Sugared tulips red of sweet spilling 

To my desire, love that is kneeling 

At my door once more

Opened in aged envelope

A heart gifted, hands praying palm to dance on the ceiling... 

Someone willing to be wild  

A soul much like mine ~k

Protection

'When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back...' -Exodus 33:22-23
 Often times, when it gets dark in life, he will hide you in the cleft of a rock, cover you and  protect you even though it seems that you don't see him or feel him at the moment,  he will give you enough proof in his existence. Even if all you see is his backside, he's in the details, always surrounding you when you may not notice. He's omnipresent and oh, how he loves you. Give God the benefit of the doubt in the darkest times of life.

Art. The Hidden Part.

Each artist battles the recklessness in his own soul. What is produced is a small fraction, a piece of his woes painted in a masterpiece of what was once broken hollow that became a work of beauty to show.~k #quote #theartist

Let your walls down.

It is easy to make assumptions about one another,  a fool passes judgement, but the truth is that you will never know someone if you don't ask. Everyone has a story & is entitled to share it before a stranger creates a book of fiction with their name on it. If we look at people with love, judgment bears no power & we can become a people of freedom. Let your walls down. ~k #quote

Fade, fade away...

Flowers bloom

Colors of masquerade 

The love ignited fast to

Only blow away

You are lawless

No love song playlist

You stepped over a heart of gold

But you're gonna miss this

You played, you dissed

You appear shallow

Silence turns in abyss

Hardened distance

You touched me once

Turned your cold palm in a dismissed way 

 Stiffened your face as if you don't know my name

You are fading fast

...fade, fade away
