Abstract teardrops
Upside-down world
I pawned air for love and I breathed

E P I P H A N Y

White filters through my morning dreams
You awaken a window in me love
Trembling watercolors of dawn tumble across the sky
Pouring behind the darkness of my eyelids
I see you.
You are the flowering vines curling around
the wings of my eyelashes
You are the ocean that I am lost in
You are my tide
This heaviness of water and light gathers at my feet and engulfs my soul
Singing sweet, humming, murmuring memories deep fall asleep
I cling to you in this space of eternity
Dark and whispering blooms of weightless and cradled dreams
currents between our woven hearts
My fingers linger with yours
Our faces swim soft and near
You lift my eyes to yours, and in them find
sorrowful tears of a journey’s end
I float upwards
Without you
into streaming ribbons of light
Spinning and weaving gently along the strands of my heavy watered heart
I sigh
I inhale rays of light
The dawn meets the color of my eyes as it meets its lover horizon
And beside me no longer in the space of my dreams
Entwined within pools of a linen ocean
I am touched by the fresh blooms of your lips, your smile, your bright eternal eyes
Now it is we who are one in the window of me love
And another dawn begins.

…DESPERATION CORNERS LOVE…
every night we slide along rivers of moonlight you and me coveting darkness as a companion between our electric souls sifting light from our mouths along a weary wire to the tunnels of our senses ringing stinging singing through the veins that connect the hearts that feed the half of what we are to each other skin screaming eyes dreaming when will our void be filled i peer out of my cage to love to people to the reflection of those city lights on those thirsty clouds drenching this churning earth making anonymous my tears and i wonder how my heart ever got so twisted up in this unparallel surrender of flooding drowning love resounding chaos turning me upside down inside out 'til the rain stings and my blood thins and i hear wire from my ear falling limp no longer near your universe summoning my heart my body weeping apart simmering you of my soul save me from these choking bones now what is left and since where have i gone i wonder why my river never merges with the moonlight that converges close against your ey es watery in my sighs nocturnal body spilling her river light to lips of passion's night our souls shifting with her face memory trailing after her grace 'til dawn's traumatizing light stretches his fingers to the sky strings shadows along our lies dark haven of bliss this never never land our moon she kissed now chased erased down my face sore eyes ache your voice he fades tears pour by morning's light clinging to slipping night we're no longer her exception her dual reflection the world's glaring stunning face mocking our deep dark infallible facade intoxicating night where i will find you again where i will find you in a moonlight river spinning wires across depths we turn our eyes away from in this suffocating sea of darkness we're drowning in.
